I feel Wilson should be in jail; it's things like this that allow for racism to persist in our society. First Trayvon, now this!? I'm done with this BS system. That's why riots happen. I'm tired of racism and bigotry and this miscarriage of justice. This is ridiculous man. Post your frustration or opinion here. --------------------------------------------------- Edit 1: My last thread got shut down last night for venting out my frustration; it's ridiculous how you can't even have freedom of expression anymore --------------------------------------------------- Edit 2: user kalibane has made it very clear highlighting why the black population riots and distinguishing it from others [quote] 1. White people don't have a history of systemic discrimination or oppression from black people in positions of institutional authority. 2. A bunch of white people rioted over taxes once upon a time. Then started engaging in organized guerrilla style attacks on governmental officials. Today they would considered domestic terrorists. They are considered fathers of the Country. 3. OJ killing Nicole had nothing to do with race. It was a purely a case of escalated domestic violence. 4. The OJ trial was 20 years ago. Michael Brown was killed in August and was only one of five unarmed black men shot and killed by police officers in that month alone. No indictments handed down.[/quote] --------------------------------------------------- Edit 3: people saying Wilson had to shoot; NO HE DID NOT; there are other ways, like shooting his leg, using pepper spray, or even taser. But I guess lethal force is the only for the police to get what they want... --------------------------------------------------- Edit 4: Receiving massive backlash from the community for apparently supporting michael brown. My bad for fighting for a persons civil rights. Also note /u/VeryThunder is trying to annoy people; please mute/ignore him. I've already had three complaints --------------------------------------------------- Edit 5: Yes I've spotted some Negro Alliance members in the forums; good to see that. For people slamming Michael Brown for being aggressive; HOW DARE YOU! Let the poor man rest in peace. YALL are the cause of this aggressive reaction. You think it's FINE for some cop to shoot another man and get away with it. Easy for other races to shrug off since they aren't seen as a threat by society. --------------------------------------------------- Edit 6: I will try to provide minute to minute coverage on this situation. I've received some very nasty PM's but that's not stopping me. I'm simply out here for awareness and trying to straighten things out with the public, making sure they are informed before they open their mouths. --------------------------------------------------- Edit 7: I see the argument presented from both sides; very emotional and powerful responses I'm getting. I've been personally slammed, being called a [quote]liberal[/quote], but I don't see why? Is it because I too am an African American? I don't support murder? Whatever their reasoning, people should look at the facts before they talk. Edit 8: everyone seems to be taking this as a joke. Why!? This isn't something to laugh about. This is a man'a life we're talking about. A man who was wrongfully killed and another who is not being punished for it.
