No, I haven't, never in my 60+ years on this earth have I been profiled because I'm white, nor have I been discriminated against because I'm white.

I've been pulled over and ticketed for speeding, fined because I was late getting my dog vaccinated, and busted by a red light cam for blowing through a red light.

None of this was because I was white, it was because I broke the law.

I don't know killing someone who was unarmed was part of a Cop's JOB. Thanks for letting me know.

the thug 6'4 300lb overweight ADULT jus committed a crime of robbery evaded the cops, another crime

when a cop stopped him to ask him a question, he assaulted the cops, another
crime then fled the cops ,another crime


then turned to attack the cops again, another crime


for which the cop defended himself
All of this is the police's version. You don't know what happened. We both do know that the cop killed an unarmed teen who had his arms up at the time. As well, Wilson did not know that Brown had allegedly robbed a store at the time he approached him and initiated the confrontation.

So you have to insult a dead kid as well as spread lies about him. Classy.


Quote:

meanwhile posters call him a unarmed kid.....a lie. he is a big adult


meanwhile his grieving family lie and call him a gentlegiant

He was an unarmed kid. Care to dispute that? I have kids who are the same size. Are you going to call them thugs too?



Quote:
yet you post a status of arrest the cop...
Yes. Arrest him, try him, convict him and lock his butt up.

Some white people believe there is such a thing as Driving While Poor (analagous to Driving While Black).

That's not saying people are profiled for being white rather that white people can be profiled for being or looking poor.
