Sure. And when someone is unjustly killed.

Thanks for the link.
They assault him and when he flee's they shoot him. Being that he is black it seems all is well. I thought the idea of arming yourself was for self protection? That is why we have the 2nd in part is it not?

Too many right wingers here on cd, that represent a good portion of people in this country believe that as long as a cop shoots a minority, the cop is never clearly guilty.

Like when there were peace treaties in St. Louis? Like how all of this started specifically addressing crime through music and media??

We can't help it the Democrats and media unleashed Black Lives Matter. We were just people fighting for our lives and rights.

Wow. They straight up murdered the guy. After trying to assault him. That's the 1st time I've seen the video.

Trust me. I see looooots of white males with open carries walking around in public in the south and police NEVER question them.

What they did was unconstitutional to start with. They had no justification (at least as far as the article notes) or any reason to touch him. Does he not have a right to protect himself?
I appreciate your sense of humor/ I know you are kidding because no one could possibly be ignorant enough to write something like that as truth, unless of course that someone were an anti-American cop hater.

The cops did good, they did I what I do every Tuesday evening, take out the trash....

Why is it a death sentence for a black man to carry? This isn't the first time we have seen this happen.

There is nothing funny here.

I just saw the video on the news. The thug ran from police and then pulled out his gun! Now everyone playing the race card can apologize for being wrong...,again.

Are you from Chicago? Do you know the guy personally? Funny you're assuming someone is trash without knowing them.

But the police in Chicago are angels


Shows how much you know about criminality in general. Shows how much you know about why some of the crime in those communities, that those people are victims of, are the direct fault of corrupt police officers.

I mean honestly. If you're so smart then why isn't your method reducing violence??
