That's really brainless. If they were far away from their house when the riot broke out, you might understand why the small kids happened to be there, but when your house is right there and you choose to expose your kids to all the dangers of a riot, you are the one at fault when something happens.
Any decent parent would have taken the kids inside at the first hint of problems. A riot is certainly hint enough that it's time to get the kids elsewhere.
There was no riot taking place when the dog incident occurred - it was a peaceful protest.
You people from out of the area are really ridiculous - you have no clue what you are talking about - yet you want to trash the good people of Anaheim - conflate disparate events - and spread misinformation.
Get a life - or at the very least learn some actual facts before you spout off.
Well they said the mother was right outside her house -- so once she noticed the outsiders coming in and long before the police arrived, shouldn't she have cared something about her child and taken the child into the house or even her backyard.
The outsiders weren't present at that event - again - you have no clue what you are talking about - you are mixing up separate events. The dog incident took place at a peaceful protest in the neighborhood. The riot occurred in downtown Anaheim - a couple miles away - and a few days later.
Do some research - or be quiet - your misinformation is just ridiculous.
I grew up in Chicago and it seemed like everytime there was a shootout involving gang members and police there were articles in the paper and internet claiming the police were racist nearly everytime. But what bothers me more is that these are gang members, not good citizens of the public. These people in these gangs are scum of the earth.
They are such scum that they are no longer human beings They are subhumans and not one tear should be shed when they die. Citizens should be overjoyed anytime police kill them.

Well you can lie and claim this was a peaceful protest but the video shows otherwise. Any parent with a brain would have hustled the kids into the house before it got to that point. I think many of these people are looking for the jackpot -- lawsuit money. I'd be in favor of just putting a high fence around that neighborhood of police haters and letting them police themselves.
I read it. I guess you simple can't understand what the ruling said. It did NOT say that the police can shoot someone for simply running away.
They can shoot them if they believe he is going to harm someone else BUT that is shooting them for being a threat to someone else, not for running away.
You must have missed post #60, I already mentioned this there, hence the "depending on the circumstances" line I kept mentioning, sound familiar at all?
I have little sympathy for gangs, but:
1) There is no such thing as "human garbage". There might be bad humans, but nothing that is human can be garbage. We were created in G_d image.
2) In this country, people are free to protest against whatever they want. Its in the constitution.
1. We are all created in God's image. But when someone chooses to live a life of evil, such as criminals/gang members, they have chosen to reject God and take the side of the devil. When they do this they become so corrupt that they lose their status as a human being and become a subhuman creature...more monster than man.
2.Sure people are free to protest. But it shows how morally bankrupt our culture is that there are protests/riots taking the side of gangs. If this was a healthy culture everyone would hate gangs with a passion and protest that police aren't doing enough to arrest them, kill them off etc.
In other words - you admit that you don't think objectively.
These aren't two equal groups with positive and negative qualities. There is nothing good about gangs. There is never any reason to take a pro-gang position. The fact that so many people are quick to defend gang bangers shows that moral relativism has taken over.
Yes -- and it's a given that people who so vehemently support their gang thugs are not exactly going to stay peaceful for long.
It's not as though they were protesting something like high taxes where the police wouldn't have much to fear, these are gang members protesting for their fellow gang member. Still -- all the police did was use rubber bullets and left a couple welts no worse than you get at a paintball field and even the crying woman only complained about the dog only scratching her with it's teeth, obviously no bite marks to parade around.

Under no circumstance are they allowed to shoot someone for simply running away.
I have no idea what relevance an argument that goes that if someone threatens to beat someone to death and takes off to do that causing the police to take action has to do with anything argued here.
Nothing has been posted to dispute my argument that the police can't just shoot people for running away. You are arguing that they can shoot him if he is threatening someone else. O.K., but I have no idea what they has to do with anything discussed here unless you have proof the guy was a threat to someone.

The only people NOT acting peacefully in that video were the Anaheim police.
