To me it's not about this officer. It's about a system that will not hold hardly anyone within the system accountable.

That goes for ALL, whether you're white, black, green, or from planet Jupiter!
I'm laughing too at you guys on the internet...not the business owners.

So the president spoke on the issue and said we need an open and transparent police department? Does he want to incite more violence? The officer is getting death threats and he and his family deserve protection and due process.

He said we needed and open and transparent government also but we got just the opposite.

How is he getting death threats if nobody knows who he is?

You are in the minority viewpoint. The American public would have been even further outraged if Obama did not say something to that effect. The Governor had to relinquish the entire police force of their duties. People in this country are sick of unlawful Cops and how militarized they have become.

Their only job is to protect peaceful people from violent ones and yet Police seem to cause more violence wherever they go.
You are out of the loop.

Default NBA Star Calls Al Sharpton a ‘Coon’ for Stepping into Ferguson

R-a-a-c-i-s-t-t .. Oh wait!?

Quote:
NBA player Gilbert Arenas really went off on Al Sharpton yesterday. Arenas was really incensed at Sharpton’s presence in Ferguson, Mo., and even went so far as to call the civil rights leader a “coon” and asking people to stop inviting him into their communities for help.

Arenas posted a rather lengthy rant on Instagram that’s since been deleted, but UPROXX captured the full text before it was taken down, and man, it’s a doozy.

What vicious animals are ruling the city?

So the conscious solution is to kill them?

Lol, we're losing our rights everyday. A great plan by our founders. Give us lots of rights at first...then slowly erode them away over 3 centuries.
