Let the race baiting by the media and Obama, riots, and looting begin.

Of course it will be irrelevant if it's proven that the suspect had pointed a gun at the officer. It was a white cop and a black person shot and that's all they need to know.......

I just briefly read the story on Yahoo. If the story is correct the kid had a gun. That certainly is a little different from the past cases. It did happen very close to St. Louis which isn't good. Do these young thugs realize they will mostl likely not live to see another day if they do not get their act together? My heart goes out to the families of these kids, just like to the families of the police who lose loved ones who are just doing their job.

I hate to say this, because I so respect the office of the President, but our wonderful Pres has to accept some responsibility for the rapage some seem to be on. And yes, the media as well.

Think they're having a press conference at 7am CST. From my understanding so far, the man pulled a gun on the officer, then the officer pulled his and fired. There should be good video from the store.

I hope they don't run with this "teen" thing. He was 18.

The cops won't tolerate crap this time around and the rabble rousers will be in the crosshairs. Obama will get his Christmas wish, more civil unrest and racial division and bloodshed.
