A black off-duty cop tried to help stop a crime. Another officer shot him.

Cops appear to believe that an interruption to their donut supply is the most serious sanction they can suffer for crimes.

 

I know; all that hard-won lard being compromised isn't an attractive proposition.

People make mistakes. White people, black people, brown people. BUT any time a black is involved, the Left ALWAYS - ALWAYS plays the race card.
ALWAYS trumps up divisiveness, and NEVER EVER gives any thought to something besides their own biased, racist, hateful, cynical political narrative.

Young black men murder at over 20 times the rate of young white men. Twenty times. Police know it. What do you expect police to do, cross their arms and simply watch the violence?

 

Mistake? I'll translate that as 'assumption' and 'profiling' on the part of the idiot cop, if it's ok with you. Shall we discuss the totally disproportionate number of blacks stopped, searched and brutalized?

 

So you are just going to ignore a civilian walking up to 2 cops carrying a firearm?

There is no mention of the posture the civilian was in. Was his gun in his hands? At his side or up at the ready? Were the other cops facing him or looking in the other direction?

Both of those questions have a far greater impact than the race of either.



Last point. This is the same as what I said about the Castillo case. Cops need much more training on dealing with an armed public.

 

First of all, it's tragic that a cop is shot - period - which almost certainly occurred during the heightened stress and emotion of the situation. But since race got dragged into this, I'm going to follow the bouncing ball and sing along. How many people here would do absolutely nothing if they saw an armed black man approaching them at a crime scene? Blacks have worked very hard making sure their hatred for cops is well known. You have your pigs in a blanket chant, the chant of what do we want? dead cops chant. You have rap music glorifying shooting cops. You have idiots like Sharpton urging blacks to kill cops and so on.

No matter who you are you're going to get the impression that blacks just might want to kill cops and that impression was caused by the very people who imply they want to kill cops, how can cops discount the very words that come out of the mouths of blacks? I know the number of blacks who want to kill cops is probably hideously small, but how does anyone know which ones they are? If you saw a Muslim guy yell Allahu Akbar, would you smile about what a shining example of diversity that is, or would you run for the hills? People develop reputations based on repeated actions.

And making everything worse is that cops were disrespected by Obama and thugs were given a pass; the Cambridge police acted stupidly and Obama's son would have looked like a thug. Whatever problems blacks had with cops were made worse by Obama's idiotic mouth.

 

The BLM bigoted hate machine is at it again. Here come the riots from the "tolerant" folks

 

1. I knew we could count on you to justify this in some form or fashion.
2. Show me a statement made by Al Sharpton telling people to kill cops.
3. Why are you still crying about Obama?

 

Oh good, another race infused post from Denizen. What a shocker! Last time a black cop killed a black guy, your hero - Hillary Clinton - wanted to discuss white racism. That's how ignorant and short of reality people like you are. Stay miserable.

 

When the story first broke, white conservatives came to that story stating that he was a black thug with a gun and that he got what he deserved.

No surprise at all.

And for those rightwing hypocrites that are hollering why race is brought into it, please. When a crime is committed and you have even a tiny sense that the suspect could be a minority, the first thing you holler is "why is the liberal media hiding the race? Where is BLM, Al Sharpton, Jackson, Obama" before any facts come out.

When the suspect is white, "why is the liberal media bringing race into this? And before we jump to conclusions, I'll wait for the facts to come out".

 

Put yourself in Denizen's shoes for just one second. This cop most likely saw his opportunity to shoot a black guy. It didn't matter that he was a cop, he just needed to shoot a black guy.

But of course, to you living outside of reality AND America, you think we should arm our police with sticks or anything besides a gun. Perhaps a wooden shield, too. I challenge you to walk through Chicago or any big city where crime is high and see if you make it out alive. Take yourself a stick and shield. Better yet, that'll never happen because you don't have a single effing clue about America or what goes on or why. The f*ck do you know about the NRA?

 

When it's black on black or black on white, nobody reports it. Let me know when you find that reality. It's good to know we can always count on Denizen and SBB to come on in here and post all about when it's white on black though, accidents be damned. Such great contributors to society.

 

That was probably before the millennial was born. They don't count stuff like that anyways, unless it's a white person saying it.

 

He never said he wanted them to kill cops. Nice spin. Try again........

 

Good for you. You're not even in America so who cares.

 

How do you know about it if no one reports it?

 

This happened in Season 3 of The Wire. . .

 

Shows how ignorant to America you are, but you can't help yourself, you just HAVE to give us your >2¢. Trump won because the country was sick of Obama and the only other choice was 4 more years of him. There's never been an easier concept to grasp, what's your problem?

 

Show me your list of rights that are being trampled on, I could use a laugh right now.

 

Racists usually will seek out racism where none exists to justify their own.

 

The right to keep and bear arms.

Simply having a firearm nowadays makes me a target for police. I thus do not carry because I do not wish to be harassed or worse.

 

That's because they don't see the world through color blind eyes, they only see things through the color of one's skin and are too busy pointing their fingers to notice that they're the problem. That's why nobody pities them anymore.

 

Not sure how things are over there in Europe but it sounds like you've a got a personal problem.

 

St. Louis has 1292 police officers. For a person wearing daily clothes to rush to a crime scene, knowing the danger, just makes little sense to me. But with that many police officers, how likely is it they know each other?

I suggest posters wait for a full investigation first.

Notice nobody will admit white lives matter.

Nobody has spoken of white cops shot by cops by accident either.
