A bold comment to make it more of a racial issue rather than focus on the tragedy itself. Way to go.

What the hell???

THIS IS A RACE ISSUE!!!

This is all about race!!!

My hell. We can't properly work to fix this problem until we sit down and admit, THIS IS ALL ABOUT RACE AND ECONOMICS.

Cmon guys, let's wake up and smell the coffee. These incidents aren't isolated. They're not acts of God like a natural disaster or some freak earthquake. These incidents are many of the long list of white v black racial tensions that remain unresolved because we refuse to admit that we have a problem.

Look at all of the stats.

From incarceration rates, schools, lack of economic opportunity, to police shootings.

Race and economics.
 
So do you think that the guy whose picture was plastered on the news last night as a possible suspect will be open-carrying in the future? He learned the hard way that carrying a gun around makes people assume you are involved. That must have been quite a shock when he realized he was being blamed for something he had not done.

I work in law enforcement, and today is a tragic day for everyone here. And they all keep doing their jobs.

I'm just the money girl (accounting tech). Nothing dangerous about my job as I am surrounded by metal detectors and armed officers. I just hope each time I see my guys go out that I'll see them again tomorrow.

Yeah Im sure he will. I think he wanted to make a point that black man can carry a gun and not be a murder/dangerous person.

The Daily News is a ****ing cesspool of journalism. Seriously, have some respect for the ****ing family.

Well, I mean, at this point the video has already been seen by millions and the family wants justice. That being said, I imagine the family is fine with it if it contributes to their pursuit of justice. I mean, it looks pretty damning toward the officers.

I don't disagree with your other points about teachers and cops, but you diminish your own credibility by starting out with such an enormous overstatement.

As a teacher, I should point out that there's absolutely no correlation between how much teachers are paid in a particular jurisdiction in NA and how high the rates of teachers molesting kids are. So it's not as simple as to say that if you pay people less, they'll abuse their position more. I don't think the issue is police pay. At least not primarily.

You want me to be ashamed of the truth an the obvious? Are they really oblivious to the message they are sending police an the fallout they cause? Can they really feel no guilt for contributing to a environment of hate?

We have a judicial system. We have Internal Affairs. Obama has sent in the feds. We do not need to foster a environment conducive to rioting an police shootings. Especially when we aready have clear evidence police were justified.

OK, my point was that your wild speculation about the posters you listed wanting police to be compromised and unable to do their jobs just makes you a pain in here. I'm sure it doesn't amount to that, just a concern that actual offenders, "bad cops" should be moved out of the ranks or tried according to the facts of the wrong they may have done.

What are you trying to say with this?

This country has a lot of work to do.

That tweet, declaring war on blacks and Obama, isn't from some Arkansas dumbass sexing it up with his underage sister. It's from a former congressman and current am radio star

If that's the type of rhetoric we can expect from our leaders then it's no wonder why so many people have so much pent up vitriol.

You said that one marginal NBA player is going to make more in a year than all of the teachers and police officers combined. That is laughably untrue.

It wasn't meant to be taken literally.

Cops are taught to unload on gun toaters. Shooting him once was justified than shooting six times or 600 was.

Aside, do you have the coroners report? I see one death shot to the head. I read "shot shot shot shot" on the screen. I do not see or hear 4 more shots.

I pray for the officers mental wellbeing an for his family. I pray for the souls of those wishing harm or even worse death penalty on this innocent man for protecting and serving.

You saw "one death shot to the head"? Well, then you're seeing things since he was never shot in the head. Maybe you should check the coroner's report? You're so sure you know exactly what happened, yet you don't even know what actually happened. Damn fool....

See what the race baiters, including those on this very website, have created?

These murders are on the backs of all of you knee jerking to a 30 second video an ignoring all evidence. I hope your conscience can cope with your murders.

And I hope your conscience is fine blaming so many people responding to this thread for being somehow accessories to murder. What a compassionate human being you are!

Sounds good but there aready is enough evidence to support police. Video shows the man reaching for something with his right hand an homicide found a firearm.

Those against the cops at this point are of five stripes.

1. Race baiters
2. Conspiracy theorists (gun was planted)
3. Anti-gun nuts
4. Uneducated in police practices (why the extra shots???!!!1!!!)
5. Cop haters.

There are zero rational arguments being made only haste an hate.

That last sentence. If only we could see ourselves as others see us, eh? Because that last sentence applies to you more then anyone else, anyone, in this thread. Sometimes I think you surely must be trolling. It is very hard for me to believe anyone could be as moronic as you are. By the way, you claim to have seen things so very clearly in the Baton Rouge shooting. So where is that "kill shot to the head" you claim to see? You do know that initial image was of a taser, and not a gun, correct? You do know that, correct? You did get your facts straight before shooting your mouth off, right??
