^^I am sure next year, when Hillary is Prez, she will be holding a sign blaming her also but yes, misdirected I think.

Part of being the prez is being the head spear catcher. On the international level and on the national level for their. Unfortunately being the prez has also come to mean being the spear catcher for your corporate contributors at times.

It's Good to be the White.
by Frank Vyan Walton

It's a good thing to be White In America, because you get to do things that other people could only dream of getting away with and living to tell the tale.


If you're white you can stand around on a street corner with a loaded Rifle and scream obscenities at the police for 10 solid minutes and not only will they not shoot you, they sit down with you and talk.


If you're white you can scream at Cops while armed with loaded weapons on the steps of the Texas Capitol, and with no ID while not get shot, tased, pepper-sprayed or beaten.


If you're White you can point loaded guns a federal Officials and not only not get shot, you can continue to spew violent anti-Police rhetoric as you push a cart filled with ammo down the street, and nobody will even look at you twice until you actually walk into a Cici's Pizza place and Murder Two Cops.

If you're white you can go on an actual shooting spree and point your gun at Officers, and still not get shot.

But if you're black, well that's a different story.

If you're Tamir Race with a toy, you get two seconds and your dead.


If you're Jonathan Ferrell you get four seconds.


If you're Darrien Hunt or Walter Scott you get shot in the back while running away.

If you're Eric Garner you get asphyxiated by a unauthorized choke-hold.

If you're Gregory Towns you get tased to death.

https://youtu.be/Ax-xYE7gNhg

If you're Henry Davis you get beaten and then charged with the heinous crime of bleeding on the Officers Uniforms

Grand Jury Indicts (all) Six Officers In Freddie Gray Case
n-FREDDIE-GRAY-OFFICERS-large.jpg


A grand jury has indicted six Baltimore officers on a range of charges after State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby presented her department's investigation into the death of Freddie Gray.

In a press conference Thursday, Mosby announced that the grand jury charged all six officers in connection to Gray's death. Officers Edward Nero, Garrett Miller, Caesar Goodson, William Porter, Sgt. Alicia White and Lt. Brian Rice face a slew of charges ranging from misdemeanor negligent assault and misconduct to involuntary manslaughter, intentional assault and murder.

“On May 1st our investigation revealed that we had enough probable cause to bring charges against the six officers,” Mosby said.

The revised charges add reckless endangerment counts to all of the officers' cases, and remove false imprisonment charges that Mosby had announced after Gray's death was ruled a homicide. Below are the charges, followed by their maximum sentences (more):

great to see the Gray family actually get a chance of justice. i havent looked very closely into this one and im not sure if the charges are sufficient. but AT LEAST they will go to trial.

Mike Brown would have been 19 yesterday.

Michael Brown's Family Had the Section of Road Where He Died Removed

michael_brown_pavement_removal.jpg

A crew paid for by the Lipton Group takes out the chunk of pavement.

After Wednesday's removal of the stuffed animal memorial to Michael Brown Jr., a plaque and a dove were embedded in the sidewalk on Canfield Drive on Thursday morning. But observers also saw a crew of workers digging up the street where Brown actually fell and died after being shot multiple times by former Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson.

This was done at the request of the family, which was given the largest pieces of the asphalt to take home with them.

"A lot of it was real crumbly. We got most of the big pieces," says Louis Head, Brown's stepfather. "That was good enough for us."

Crews are now pouring down asphalt on the stretch of Canfield where Mike Brown was shot & killed. @ksdknews #Ferguson pic.twitter.com/NJVVpsBV6d

Ferguson Mayor James Knowles mentioned that this had been a request of the family's back in April.Head says that his wife, Lesley McSpadden, wanted to incorporate the pieces of asphalt into her son's headstone. But because it's in such bad shape, it doesn't look like that will be possible.

Head says they still hope to "mix it up and turn it into something.

"The memorial plaque and the dove were also placed yesterday, which -- unsurprisingly -- has stirred up some controversy for the city of Ferguson. Spokesman Jeff Small says he spent the day answering a "steady stream" of calls from angry people, many of them from outside the Missouri area.

The bulk of them were upset that city money would be used to put in the plaque and to dig up the street, Small says -- which isn't true.

The dove sits in front of the lamp post that was once covered in stuffed animals.

"[The city said,] 'If you can pay for it or find someone to pay for it we will agree to it,'" says Small. "Not one dime of city money was used to do this."

According to Janie Jones, president of the Washington D.C.-based Joint Council On Policy, an anonymous donor paid for the plaque and the dove. The Lipton Group, which owns the Canfield Green apartment complex, paid for the street to be dug up and repaved.

"It's so people didn't drive over the actual spot where he died," says Jones.

The Barney Fife's out there need to know that someone could be using a camera at any time. The incompetence and racism will be on camera for all to see. Not that Barney was racist but he was incompetent.

it can't be, if you watched or read any news you would know that cops only kill minorities... or is that the only kind of killings they report :hmm:

Maybe I'm on to something here

nope. they are equal opportunity killers. not to mention there are WAY more white people in this country. so by percentages they do kill more african americans than whites.

AND the numbers are there to backup that they target minorities for crimes over white people.

That was my point and however bad, the rest was meant to be a joke. I'm aware they systematically target specific races, one would have to be in complete denial about the subject to believe otherwise. The media coverage just annoys me (what I was trying to say) because percentages aside, they do kill my white people (which of course makes sense) but they don't receive the coverage that questionable killings by officers involving other races do - as of late, this is understandable though.

Maybe its just where I'm from, but this is looked at as a black vs police things whereas it should be everyone vs police because we all have the opportunity to be mistreated. And I was just trying to vent my frustrations.
