Would YOU like to be shot and killed while doing nothing more than shopping?

Talk about pathetic.............


Allow me to assist:

Quote:
An accident or a mishap is an unforeseen and unplanned event or circumstance, often with lack of intention or necessity. It usually implies a generally negative outcome which might have been avoided or prevented had circumstances leading up to the accident been recognized, and acted upon, prior to its occurrence.

Accident - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Please let me know if that doesn't work. I can try to find a remedial version if necessary.

So then you're saying the cop knew that the man had a BB gun from off the store shelf but purposely shot him anyway.

How do Conservatives reconcile their supposed vigilance against tyranny and gov't trampling over American rights w/ the silence over an American getting killed for doing nothing, but standing in a store and the murderers not even being charged?

I did a Google News search on the story when I got off work @ 6p -- "John Crawford Walmart." In that last hour, 342 websites have an posted an article about the story. Everyone from Slate to NBCNews to LA Times to UPI to the AP, even local news stations. Everyone except the vast majority of Conservative watchdogs.

Reason is the only Conservative source bringing this up. Every major independent and Left-leaning news source seems to at least have an update. Why?
My guess he is a young black man not the demographic right to carry types think need guns.


In fact right to carry types are much more apt to view that man with fear and view men with his skin color as the main threat and reason they need to carry and protect themselves.



Seeing that young man gunned down brings me to something my dad told me long ago


America was never meant for black people. We have barely been considered human, let alone citizens.

If police were allowed to shoot you for not letting them into your house when they asked, would you consider that a right's violation, or is that just cops "accidentally" entering into your home...
Can you cite that law that gives police the authority to shoot you for not putting down your gun quick enough in an open-carry state?

Since police don't have the authority to shoot you for not letting them into your house when they asked that question is ever more asinine that the thread itself. Your attempt to imply that gun rights activists don't care because they're racists fails miserably.

Your father clearly did his job well (as many African American parents do) in keeping up with the time honored tradition of educating his children on their status as perpetual victims. Congratulations! Parenting WIN!

I'm going to bet that you've never even heard of the following story. Gee- why would that be? What's your take on this story?

Black cop kills white man, media hide race

Wow you are expert on what black parents teach their children?


What do white parents teach their children?

How about Hasidic Jewish parents?


What about first generation Armenian parents?

What about Mennonite parents


What about parents where one is a Filipino and the other puerto rican what do they teach their children?
Please teach me since you believe you know what black parents teach their children, I'm looking for a word that describes a person who makes outlandish claims like that, I think the words begin with either the letter b...ending with letter t


Or beginning with the letter r and ending with the letter t.

And the story you posted has what to do with this story?


Oh that's right nothing

Lol. I mean what ignorant questions.


Here's a little hint my family as most black people's families has been in America far far far longer than the average European American.

European Americans asking black Americans about leaving America as if the nation belongs to them gets exactly to the point my dad made those many years ago because again on average black American's can trace their American lineage far far far far further back than European Americans, most of whom families didnt get here until the 1900's. SMh


It takes a special kind of privilege to be blind to that reality and ask that type of question.

you said that america was never meant for black people. I then asked if you'd be happier in your country of origin. I did not tell you to go anywhere. your reading comprehension skills are horrific.

And it was never meant or black people. That is a statement of objective fact.


Let's just since 1883 till now, for 80% of this nation's history black people were not even citizens in reality. Couldn't vote couldn't live where they wanted ding have the protection of the law.


Were mostly brultilzed and living under either enslavement or the murderous Jim Crow south.


This is the reality black Americans for 80% of this nation's history. Yeah it's safe to say America was never meant for black people.


Again your questions are hilariously ignorant.
