The black community is about as collectively lost as lost can be. Priorities way, way out of whack.

Oh yeah, I read about how donations for the living guy whom, so far, is still getting paid, hasn't been sued and seemingly has no current reason to need donations, have been going great. So great that the site that donations are being run through had to disable their comments due to how horribly racist they tended to be. So yeah, no looting or violence...just spreading hate.WebFire;1647081 wrote:Donations for the cop have surpassed those of Brown, and they did it without looting and violence.

What would possess someone to donate to the cop, George Zimmerman, Cliven Bundy, etc? All the great charitable organizations in the world and people send their hard earned money to stuff like this.
Killing unarmed black people, whether justified or not, certainly seems to be a good way to get rich quick lately. Kind of bizarre.

If you would have left it there, that's fine. Cliven didn't kill any unarmed black people though

Maybe because people are turned off to the fact that people's lives are being ruined due to false accusations? What's more "bizarre" is people donating to the family of Mike Brown when all he is, is a dead thug.HelloAgain;1647108 wrote:What would possess someone to donate to the cop, George Zimmerman, Cliven Bundy, etc?

I guess that could be a reason, though I question why Richard Jewell didn't get any donations if that were a strong motivation alone.Pick6;1647192 wrote:Maybe because people are turned off to the fact that people's lives are being ruined due to false accusations?
Of all people, why would you send money to the Stl cop? He hasn't been charged with anything, is still getting paid, hasn't been sued, and no one knows for sure whether he did anything wrong or not yet. For all we know he'll be totally cleared and get to keep his job.
Hundreds of people thought to themselves, "well, I have some extra cash. Could donate to the Gates foundation to eliminate disease in 3rd world countries. Maybe donate to the children's hospital in my town. An animal shelter? Nah....I'll go with the St Louis cop."
It's bizarre anyway you look at it.

Hasn't been sued? its only a matter of time before the frivolous lawsuits get dropped on him. There will be a dog and pony show just please the ignorant.Heretic;1647097 wrote:Oh yeah, I read about how donations for the living guy whom, so far, is still getting paid, hasn't been sued and seemingly has no current reason to need donations, have been going great.

I got a feeling he was hoping no one would notice they were going since he says he is trying to keep a low profile about the issue.TedSheckler;1647072 wrote:How many White House aides will James Foley have at his funeral?

I'm not really surprised the cop is getting more donations. His supporters probably have jobs.

White males also tend to be much more beta than blacks, which would help explain the receptiveness to giving away your money to a man you don't know.

I don't think it is smart or noble to give money away to try and win political points no matter the cause.

Not sure what would motivate people to donate to cop who might be out of a job because of bad judgement. Most people are probably thinking he'll need money for lawyers, but I'm pretty sure he will have more than adequate defense provided by the taxpayer.
