"I Can't Breathe"

[AerchAngel]

I think it's pretty obvious they do things wrong. A chokehold death via cop is not acceptable. I don't in any way condone it. Unfortunately some people put themselves in positions that can lead to problems. How many times had the chokehold guy been arrested? Was he or was he not breaking the law in some fashion? He didn't deserve death, but was he a law abiding citizen?

I have a hard time feeling sorry for the Ferguson guy. The image of him pushing around a shop owner half his size, then attacking a cop in his own vehicle? The shop owner could have shot him. Would any of you feel sorry for him then? Nope, probably not. It's only a big deal if the cop is at fault, or a white guy is at fault. Or if the cop is white.

On the whole the police are a good force. Having none to enforce safety and order would be scary.

Keep your nose out of trouble, and it's less likely trouble will come to you.

Human beings commit crime all the time, look at our government, the officials there commit more crime than common folk, including the president.

So......................your point is moot.

It's british, but still applicable IMO

all i read here is:

"submit, bend the knee and kiss the ring or else it is on you when we kill you"

You and others.

I respect Toma, because he has common sense and would not do what these idiots done (Ferguson, Georgia, Cleveland, NYC). My wife cousin as well. He said department policy prohibits them from engaging when there are two or more perps. Although, he would took on Brown alone and probably took him down. He is built like a Mack truck and an all-stater in wrestling and took three different types of martial arts.

NObody has said this. Please find anywhere where this point has been made. If not, these baseless accusations don't do anything for a healthy conversation about the issues.

Oh? All I get from you is...

"Cops are the only people that should be held accountable."
