In New York - Officer David Smith was punched several times in the face and then shot to death with his own gun
So Brown died simply because he was a lousy thug - sort of like Trayvon Martin who thought he could go all MMA and beat down the cracker.
And somehow it is all whitey’s fault.
All of my children - have had situations with the police - but none attempted to argue or fight back. Thus, they never went to jail, have lived, finished high school and 3 of the 4 graduated from college.
Of course Brown’s mother never married his father, isn’t married to the new boyfriend, wasn’t raising Brown (he was living with his grandmother) and continues to deny the evidence of her son’s guilt that was presented at the Grand Jury.
But once again, it is all whitey’s fault.
It’s been 148 years since slavery - yes there have been pockets of white agression that held out longer - but how long can people blame others for something - that they never did?
Did you know that the Pilgrims - when the first slave ship landed - set the blacks free and arrested the slave ship crew? Bet you were never taught that in school. And that the ‘first terrorists’ (Pilgrims) actually paid the Natives for the land - which the ‘noble’ Natives laughed at since they continually moved into by force what lands that they wanted to live on - and also did not believe that people ‘owned’ the land. [via David Barton and the history of the Pilgrims]
Ignorance is dangerous - but can be fixed by education. Willful stupidity is worse than dangerous - because it can’t be fixed and spreads farther and faster than a disease.
And facts don’t matter a bit in Ferguson.
I can’t watch TV again thanks to that BS. Even last night, Kelly had some opinionated jackwit on her show, who didn’t have the first understanding of how our justice system works, and who just couldn’t grasp that the dozens of “witnesses” who perjured themselves, whose testimony fell apart on the simplest cross examination, who admitted to seeing nothing and just repeating what they had heard ... all these “witnesses” are worthless garbage. Hearsay and liars. But the jury should have listened to them! And believed them! No justice, no peace! And why didn’t this go to trial instead (duh, you need a grand jury to hand down the indictment stupido) and on and on. I am just sick to death of dumbshits having tantrums because of their feeewings, regardless of facts and truth. Sit down, shut up, or just go away.
