I walk past a couple black people at the bus stop on my way to work five days a week.

Blacks who point out the ridiculousness of this are, and will be mocked and shunned by this same community.

Fixed that for you.

These people are grieving. Michael Brown may just be a thug to you but believe it or not his family members loved him. Get over your self-righteous indignation.

And these same "grieving" people were where during his life?

And it is a strange community that only glorifies death, and it isn't just race related. White trash communities do the same thing. There have been 3 heroin-related deaths in my home county alone, and the response is the same - glorifying the guy like he's a saint, but doing nothing in life to help him out.

The only difference is there is no rioting over a junkie od'ing.

Funny you said this because I noticed you had to correct Believer for falling for it and sharing it thinking it is Michael Brown over in the Politics forum. Rest assured that happened all over the bowels of the internet.

Ah yes...nothing like a national media spectacle over a black "thug" from the hood being killed by a white cop to bring out those latent feelings of white supremacy that you pretend you don't have all the rest of the time. : thumbup:

Michael Brown was doing comparatively well considering the persecution the town of Ferguson has faced. He was set to enroll in college a few days before he was murdered...substantially beating the odds. Parents must not have been that bad. The worst I can see is that he committed the same crime as Jameis Winston and Cam Newton.

He was much more successful at that point in his life than a junkie who died by OD. But why should we surprised that your uppity ass would think they're even remotely the same?

"But, but, but...Michael Brown didn't get into Vandy or haaaaaaahhhvvaarrrd?? Just murder him right now so we don't waste a pell grant on him! I've got the vapors!"

Well, in QQuaker's defense, when you're a hillbilly from one of Ohio's rural Oxy-snorting communities, it sometimes is necessary to act out on those "supremacist" feelings to maintain having a reason to live.

The odds of that guy graduating from a community college or doing anything productive is so remote, why even bring it up.

And who cares about Winston or Newton, they both committed crimes and went to universities that tolerated it. Other universities wouldn't. That doesn't make them "great" guys with a heart of gold, they screwed up and committed crimes and were fortunate enough to be athletically talented enough that Florida State and Auburn looked the other way. Virginia kicked out a guy for stealing a hallmates campus card and spending less than $20 at the university convenience store. Some schools have more ethics than others.

Have no idea where that guy is now, but was a highly recruited LB. Not only did the school kick him out, it appears he served some jail time, over $20.

My point is that the some of the poor choices young men make do not define them as thugs. By all accounts Michael Brown, going to a trade school (you know the type of schools we are saying young people should go to now) and wanted to be a heating and cooling engineer and wanted to own his own business. Those are pretty distinct and articulate goals for an 18 year old.

Your assertion that he wouldn't have been a productive adult is spurious and reflects your utterly vile contempt of human beings that aren't uppity country club prudes that you've presented elsewhere on this forum. I'd dare say that a future Michael Brown fixing air conditioners might have contributed more genuine value to society than your endless melodramatic derp.

Certainly not unique to the black community. You see it in virtually every celebrity death too

Michael Brown's actions prior to the shooting spoke volumes, and this can't be ignored--no matter how much of a "swell guy" his family says he was (see post quoted above yours). Anytime a young person loses their life it's a tragedy in one form or another, but the looting and destruction in the aftermath in this case was inexcusable...and I've yet to hear Jesse, Al, et al apologize for the actions of the black "community", "neighborhood", etc.

"Your assertion that he wouldn't have been a productive adult is spurious and reflects your utterly vile contempt of human beings that aren't uppity country club prudes that you've presented elsewhere on this forum."

Oh go suck an egg. We deal and respect all people that deal and respect us. We have security people, cable people, heating and air people, pest control people, public works people, roofing people, landscaping people and the vast majority of them are great people - and we have no contempt for them regardless of their race.

Hell, I'd guess many of our vendors make more than we do. It takes balls to start your own company, especially in today's horrific regulatory environment.

It seems like the only person having contempt is you, because when your shitty arguments fall flat, what else do you have?

Back to the point of the thread, this guy didn't seem on track to do anything. Anyone can dream of becoming a plumber, or heating and air specialist. It takes work and a lot of effort.

It's interesting, your choice of words. Murdered, eh? You don't know the facts of the situation anymore than anybody else on this site does, but yet you are referring to him as being "murdered". You're mind is obviously made up, thinking the way that you are told to think.

Are you kidding me? Seriously... are you kidding me?

Lol, the last two posts made this thread. There are a few people on this site who I don't think I would enjoy hanging out with and the majority are politically related.

What isn't that from like the early 90's? Since we're going back in history.

Riots have happened throughout history. Don't act like this is something new.

Should have worked on slipping the right cross. Poor guard game too. I scored it 10-8 for the black guy.

Of course it isn't anything new. Neither is cops shooting unarmed people. So don't act like its something new, especially when it happened 2 other times in the same time frame the Ferguson shooting happened.

Very telling that you say nothing of "full retard acts" when CCrunner was calling black people animals.

It seems you don't know the definition of the word "murder."

Here is the definition of Murder in the Ohio Revised Code

[h=2]2903.02 Murder.[/h](A) No person shall purposely cause the death of another or the unlawful termination of another's pregnancy.

Here is the Definition of Second Degree Murder in the Missouri Revised Statutes

Second degree murder, penalty.565.021. 1. A person commits the crime of murder in the second degree if he:
(1) Knowingly causes the death of another person or, with the purpose of causing serious physical injury to another person, causes the death of another person

Any time a human being purposely, knowingly or intentionally kills another human being it is a murder.

The police officer in this case purposely, knowingly and intentionally killed michael brown.

It follows that the Police officer murdered Michael Brown.


It is not a question of whether the Police Officer murdered Michael Brown. It is a question of whether or not it was a justified murder because Police are given special protections when they murder other humans if they justifiably do so in the line of duty as agents of the state.

So yes, my mind is indeed made up on the issue you highlighted in red because I understand the definition of the word.
