Scofflaw with a broken tail light is taught a lesson
« on: April 08, 2015, 09:18:05 AM »

Of course, the officer was endangered because the guy was running away with his taser and therefore his life was threatened.

We CANNOT permit people just running around with busted tail lights.

And of course, this happened in South Carolina, a state where Southern Hospitality replaced racism long ago, when the people started voting for Republicans.

This appears to be a horrible over-reaction by a Police officer.
He has been charged with murder.
All professions have people that make poor decisions for all kinds of reasons.
We just saw a pilot crash his plane on purpose killing over a 100 people in a single incident
You want to sensationalize a police error and the South in general....which makes no logical sense.
Was it the "North's fault" when a Ferguson Police officer supposedly murdered Michael Brown?
Was it the "North's Fault" when a NY Police Officer rammed a broken piece of a broom into the rectum of a Haitian immigrant?
Blacks are brutally murdered daily by other Blacks and all you & your ilk seem concerned about
is when an event can be made racial.....if there is not a way to divide people....you aren't interested.
It's sad that you spread and breed hatred and race-baiting to further your political agenda.

Leave it to the professor to try and make this horrid excuse of a police officer's judgement, the supposed SOP by Police across the country     ::)

Where did I say that all police had the custom of executing Black guys who dared to provoke them with busted tail lights?

Where do you get the idea that anyone that defended the actions of Wilson defending himself from an attacking Michael Brown would think that this shooting was justified "overreaction" by the police??

 I just saw this on CNN.

The news crew and assembled experts are running the video practically frame at a time.

It looks very bad for this officer, to all appearances with the film and the report the officer filed it looks as if the killing was a murder and the subsequent actions were attempts at coverup.

The other officer that walks up a moment later is also going to be in trouble if his report also falsely says that aid was rendered , it is pretty clear that all the man got as aid was handcuffs.

As evidence goes , this is unusually good, most murders aren't on camera , the "reasonable doubt" that the defense must build is pretty much blown off by this video.

It is a good thing that this officer didn't observe the cameraman, there would have been a lot of motive for an other shooting.

From every account I've read, having not even seen the video yet, this officer behaved not just recklessly, not just demonstrating bad judgement, but criminally.

And yet, here's the professor trying to lay some twisted comparison to what happened in the 2 previous media saturated officer involved killings of a black man, 1 who was killed for simply "selling cigarettes", and the other shot for simply.....being big and black apparently.  Because those things can't be permitted, just like a broken tail light.  Ignore all the extenuating circumstances and facts, when there's an agenda to push (racist police officers), those items can simply get in the way

Perhaps this officer was a racist or perhaps he just liked shooting people for recreational purposes.

They should throw the book at him.  He claimed that the perp (a 50 year old guy who was driving a Mercedes) took away his tazer and was therefore a threat to him.

How does one threaten a cop with a taser while running away from him?

Perhaps he had a brain tumor.  Who knows what his motivation or intent was.  The issue is the facts surrounding the incident.  This appears to be a clear cut case of one officer who acted so irresponsibly, he could, and should be brought up on charges, even possibly murder.  That's just based on what's initially been reported.

YOU, on the other hand had officer Wilson convicted of murder, almost immediately, and a hate crime to boot, ....and still defend your initial accusations, despite all the facts to the contrary.  Then you portray the NY cops as having killed someone for simply selling cigarettes, when that was hardly all that was involved.  Now you're using this killing, as some sort of "similarity" to those past events.  Who here, actually believes ANYONE, much less a black person be shot for "a broken tail light"?  None.  Nor does anyone believe someone should be killed for selling cigarettes, or for simply being big & black.

I sort of expected you to say that this guy deserved to be shot because he failed to hold still and allow himself to be tased and ran away from an officer who clearly did not want him to run.

But no, now you are rattling on about possible brain tumors.

NONE of these men should have been killed. That is what they have in common, other than, of course, being Black.

why is it when a policeman kills a black it's OMG MUST BE RACISM
but when a policeman kills a white....well...uh...ummm.... it's for other reasons?
of course there are more whites than blacks
but policeman kill more whites (about double) than blacks.

I realize xo has a very narrow view of what anyone who doesn't tow the liberal line is supposed to think.  It's why blacks who are not allowed to think for themselves are somehow traitors to their race, and referred to as uncle toms.  It just reinforces the ignorance that permeates liberal group think

Let's repeat for those visitors who may have missed it the 1st time

sirs never claimed or even implied that ANYONE SHOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED, including Brown. 

There are accidents and there are intentional acts.  The circumstances that brought about the deaths, absolutely should be investigated.  Prejudgment THAT POLICE ARE RACIST BECAUSE A BLACK PERSON WAS KILLED, without recognition of any of the facts behind how it came to be is the height of irresponsible accusations.  Such a tactic, is merely s screen to push an ideological agenda....a bogus one at that.  The FACTS demonstrated that Wilson acted in defense.  We'll wait to see what the all the facts are in this case, but it would appear, as I've already referenced before, that this officer was at minimum, criminally reckless, and at worst, murdered this man.

Walter Scott was a 50 years old Black man who dared to drive a Mercedes. Officer Slager was a White cop who sees the Black guy driving a Mercedes, and says to hisself, Whoa Nellie! Thass a White man's car! so he pulls him over and pops out the brake light as he proceeds to interview the perp and order him out of the car, where he tells him about he broken brakelight and perhaps adds, "You in a heapa trouble, boy! and pulls out his taser.  Scott does not relish being tasered and turns and runs with only one electrode sticking in him. Brave Officer Salget pulls off six shots until Scott falls and then goes to cuff the fallen corpse and then he heads back to plant the taser on Scott.

The only thing he misses is that someone filmed the whole thing and after Officer Slager has written up in his report that he feared for his life because Scott took his non-lethal weapon. He had a good story going there until the guy turned in his video.

How many times have we seen this in the movies?

But no.

That is not how it went a-tall. sirs has the answer, Officer Slager had a BRAIN TUMOR.

Yessir, that's it, a brain tumor, thass ekzackly what he had!

Amazing mind reading.

How are you sure that there is no brain tumor?

Given time, one could concoct some even less likely excuse, but were I on the jury that heard it, I would try to ignore speculation that didn't have logic or evidence supporting.

When we call on brain tumors as excuses, there needs to be an X-ray.
When we call upon racism as an accusation, there needs to be evidence of that .

When we accept all speculation and allow the thinnest shadow of doubt, then racism will be the motive of all crimes and all crimes will be committed by time travelers.

it was brought up here before and I`ll form it into a question.

if two men of both races who are legally allowed to carry a gun in public in whatever state that allows it. would those men be treated the same if they carry those guns in public. note those men will be apart so one cannot vouch for the other.
