a large youth with a criminal mentality just coming of a robbery was confronted by a cop. he thought he was getting arrested and resisted the cop and got shot.

No matter what Brown may have done, the cop was wrong shooting him 6 times.

Why couldn't he just wound Brown?

Brown was unarmed, no need for 6 shots if you were trained to shoot. The cop should be tried for homicide.



Well you don't see too many honour students with scholarships doing PCP and charging at cops two weeks before college starts


But IMO the more important question is why the fuck every time something happens to a black kid the whole fucking community of black people in that area feel they have the right to go start looting and causing mass chaos and shit. Seeing women filling their strollers with Hennessey from the liquor store with the baby on her arm and crap like that.......just pathetic.

Cops are not trained to shoot to wound.  And they are trained to waste their clip if threatened to enusre their safty.  

Thsi is not hollywood, where the nice cop shoots a dude in the arm and all is well.

Well then, that sure needs to be changed. First time I've heard they're not trained to wound, but even if they aren't they are trained to shoot. The officer had a choice there, he did not have to kill Brown.

Black people are killed everyday in places like Chicago. 

 

It it only makes headlines and is a big deal countrywide when a white man does the shooting. It's also the only time you see Jackson, Sharpton and/or Obama having something to say.

I don't like it.

 

 

 

As for the looting, it is likely because those people don't work, so they steal shit. Why else would they all be standing around at 11am on a work day?

 They are dumb. They bitch about no jobs, so they go and destroy places that provide jobs in the area.

When you are trained to shoot, its with one out come in mind.  You survive.

You are correct, they are trained to kill...

I think it's really dumb that police are trained to kill a threat, un unarmed threat. I would agree with it if the guy in question was armed, but Brown wasn't armed and aren't officers trained for combat also? 

Didn't Brown have his hands in the air?

I don't know all the facts and I am going to pretend I do, but I disagree with taking a life.

2 vs 1? He had another officer with him. We don't know how big the officer is either. I don't exactly think Brown was much bigger than the officer. 

 

And we are talikng of police here, I don't think they should be training them to just shoot and kill. I completely disagree with what the officer did.
