Or at least tell them which half is white so if they see a gun in that hand they'll know everything is OK and you are just usin it tonprotect your freedom against government tyranny and maybe to kill small animals every once in a while

Can black people tell you're half?

Unfortunately white people don't know I'm half by looking at me. I should get a halfie patch sewn onto all of my clothes to let them know there's only a 50% possibility that I will be violent.

I wouldn't want you to be shot anymore than 1.5 times, 2 tops. And yes that is regardless of race creed color or religion - NOBODY should be shot more than two times!!!
deletedover 10 years
So you would only be shot 3.5 times?? That's still too many times
over 10 years
It's possible. I've heard that's what the blacks are into wearing as headgear nowadays.

I don't count though because I'm half.

Maybe the top of his head was holding a wallet that was gun-shaped

I wonder what Mike Brown did to get an officer to shoot him in the top of the head twice? That was probably after they shot him when he was backing away right?

It's not murder if the fetuses are black.

The one thing I need to add is that the convenience store robbery and the shooting are unrelated events. The cop that shot Mike Brown, nor the police department, knew that Mike was a suspect in that case. The police department released that footage in an attempt to demoralize and paint Brown in a darker light because hey, it's okay to shoot an unarmed kid 6 times, twice in the head and 4 in the chest, so long as we think he robbed someone earlier in the day although the store owner never called and reported a crime!!!

If you think Zimmerman should have been convicted then you are utterly ignorant of US legal systems

but in reality no one can really truly understand the horridness of this unless you are actually the minority discriminated upon
however, you can empathize with them as a privileged majority that doesn't have to worry about being shot in cold unjust blood
i have no concept of what that would be like, but i do understand that it is a wrong horrendous act--i would march with them as equals however i will never say ''i know what you are going through and feeling''

kick me off my soapbox any time soon im 10 shots down


Perhaps, instead, one should behave like a reasonable adult by not robbing convenience stores and throwing Molotov cocktails at police officers

Ive heard 6, not ten. It doesn't make much of a difference in my opinion, but yeah. Who says sympathy? I'm saying this needs to go both ways.

Justice for the officer implies nothing, it implies that our law system carries out its duty in finding the truth and either prosecuting him or acquitting him. He deserves a trial like Michael Brown did, and he is innocent til proven guilty like Michael Brown should've been. We need this to go both ways, so that it proves a point. Not just one way.

And well you said the Molotov cocktails were thrown by white liberals and I'm confused at how you found their race and political stance, I assumed it was sarcasm.

melody people that shoot 18 y/os 10 times with no good reason do not deserve your sympathy

also idk what you really mean by saying justice for the officer. you're implying that he's been wronged in some way, when he's just on paid leave while the whole department tries to cover his mistakes?

oh yeah so basically the police's first released report stated that he had been stealing some rollos, but they changed it to cigarettes later. still, he was found walking towards the store he had been allegedly stealing from, not away from it. the police report stated that what brown had stolen was valued at around $50 if i recall but the footage released of a man suspected to be brown shoplifting is actually holding foil wrapped singles that are worth around a dollar, so there are some holes in that story. the police chief also stated that brown wasn't shot because he was a suspect in a robbery, but "because they were walking down the middle of the street blocking traffic."

i would find sources to back these up if i had the time but if you do a quick google search you can probably find the news articles to support this
