Graphic video released of police killing another black man in cold blood

Yeah because I'm not called names, sent vile reps/PMs by posters for my initial opinion. That's okay though.

Based on the other responses I've seen, the fact that I know I haven't called you anything vile, and the fact that you have referred to me as a racist bigot in multiple posts and in negs, I would say that you are doing a pretty good job of describing the way you treat others, not the way that they treat you.

edit: In rereading your post I just realized that you were telling the truth. You have not had these things done to you. My comments were because I thought you were being facetious. For once, you have chosen not to exaggerate.
 
Nor have I ever called him names in reps or PMs. I have called him rude and ignorant in a post or two. But mainly for his treatment of other posters here.

I have also called his stances shameful and disgusting
 
Just announced the police admitted to NOT identifying themselves and shooting Crawford within seconds of seeing him. As the facts of this case, and Mike Brown's, continue to become public, I will be curious to see how those on this message board who demonized both dead people handle being so wrong.

For what it's worth, 5 of the 6 witnesses who said Mike Brown had his hands up when Wilson murdered him did not know Brown or Wilson. That should've led to a charge. In the wake of the alleged grand jury leak, it's becoming obvious the racist leaders of Missouri are corrupt.

I do that all the time. I'm awesome though, so I get away with it.

This is a lie. I leave him vile reps as often as I can.

You're a vile bag of dolphin excrement. Your opinion stinks worse than Young Blood's spankerchief.

Not to mention I have endure more than one neg rep from you with similar insults.

Show me where one person on this board demonized either of those dead people. Please.

Not exactly. A troll is someone who does what he does solely to get a rise out of people, either specific people or an individual, though repeated ridicule or disruptions in other ways. So calling someone a racist in a thread about racism, or at least where the topic may be valid, is an insult, but not necessarily an act of trolling. But calling someone a racist in a totally unrelated thread just to throw the insult around more is trolling. It can reach that level in a related thread if it is done purely to antagonize someone for no reason. So when you address me as a racist in a Jazz forum thread where I haven't even posted, that is blatant trolling.

You can certainly express strong, angry feelings without the kind of name-calling and labeling that Highland Homie often uses. It is ugly and can completely obliterate other opinions he may be trying to express.

To me, he often gives the impression in his posts that he cares more about name-calling than making a valid point about the issue.

You can express them without name-callling and labeling, but depending on your goals, with can be more effective. However, HighlandHomie has already acknowledge his youth and inexperience. Perhaps he feels he did not get the type of reaction he hoped for.

Granted, "demonize" is an exaggeration. However, if you don't recall people talking about Brown's grabbing the cigarellos (irrelevant), or people talking about Crawford reaching for a gun when he was shot (blatantly false, as it turns out), then you really haven't been paying attention. It's an exaggeration, but not a fabrication.

I watched the video a few more times. It still looks like he is coming back in the picture trying to pick up the gun off the floor. In no way does this excuse the police from making an egregious error, but it does explain why he may have been shot again if he was. I haven't yet read a transcript of the exact sequence of events and the video alone does not make it clear when shots were fired and when the shooting stopped.

The video with synchronized sound makes it clear there were only the two initial shots. They are quite distinct; it's not reasonable to think further shots would have been muffled.

I have a feeling justice will eventually prevail in these cases, along with the instance here in Utah.

Well, when I say justice, I mean the cops will be disciplined and probably lose their jobs, so justice probably isn't the right word...

An exaggeration, by it's very nature, is a fabrication. Holy ****, Donny, you're a teacher?

Yes, and my mother was an English teacher.

Fabricate:
1. to make by art or skill and labor; construct: "The finest craftspeople fabricated this clock."
2. to make by assembling parts or sections.
3. to devise or invent (a legend, lie, etc.).
4. to fake; forge (a document, signature, etc.).

Exaggeration is practically required on this message board (unless it's in support of a postion the reader disaproves of).

Yep. "Demonize" in the context of what has been said in this thread is definitely a fabrication. Thanks for proving the point.

My mother was an English teacher too; how festive!

Your explanation failed to change my mind, however.
 
Can we just make this a general "cops can really suck and are total idiots many times" thread? Cause I have this lovely story that I'd love to make a new thread with, but don't want to become the new guy who just bashes the cops all the time (just some of the time) with scores of threads about them.

But here is the story...

A bunch of dumbass Georgia cops raid a guy's garden thinking he is growing weed. Turns out he is growing okra. But let's give the cops credit...it was green, it had leaves, and it grew in the ground! What else could it have been? It must not take much of an eduction to be on the Georgia Governor's Task Force for Drug Suppression. Or even the ability to know the difference between a leaf with 5 blades vs. a leaf with 7 or more blades.

No you can only post that if it supports the notion that all cops are evil racist pigs hell bent on nothing less than collecting the most scalps in the effort to exterminate the black race. I didn't read the article but if the guy isn't at least darkly tanned this in no way qualifies.
