Why the hell was it a black cop.

Another problem for Obama's speech writers to put the right spin on. I hope Hillary chokes on the news.

In 1987, former MLB pitcher Dwight Gooden was in an altercation with the police. Rioting erupted in Tampa soon after. Another riot occurred in Tampa in 1989.

Your ignorance does not make me a liberal .... whom I do laugh (and cry) at. They are the death of us along with ignorant people. Maybe you should know more to know what "dirt nap" has to do with race?

Just wanted to dispel a misconception. There are those who look at this and say "this is Obama's America". Rioting has been taking place for a long time.

Are you serious? It should be fairly obvious. The usual suspects are claiming riots are an "Obama America" when anyone with a brain knows rioting has been going on long before Obama was in office.

It is sad when a man's whose only conviction is for exercising his second amendment rights is labeled a thug.
