QUOTE Forget the hyped up comments about Giuliani. When he stated 93% of blacks killed are blacks, he was attacked for being racist. He was also right. No one reports about that. It isn't big news. It doesn't cause riots. It doesn't make people yell about inequality or civil rights. How many blacks were killed by blacks in just Chicago this week? Here's the homicide stats for Chicago this year. As you can expect, it's mostly black on black. Roz, about the 35 feet. You have to get a better concept of distance. Have an adult pace off 20 yards from you and then charge at full tilt to run past you. See how quickly it happens. Now cut that time in half.
I saw the CNN interview with Rudy this morning and was shocked to find I finally agree with something he said. Even rolled my eyes in exasperation knowing how much crap he's going to get for his "racist" comments.
I have quite a good concept of distance. And of speed. There was a short chase before Brown was shot. The officer could have used his taser at that point. Could have had his taser out and ready to use. Officer could have called and waited for backup even, instead of chasing and shooting 10 times with innocent bystanders who could have been injured or killed.
Just sayin, there were other choices that could have been made. Does that mean I am excusing Brown's actions? No. I think he was a dumbass loser. But I also know that sometimes dumbass losers can change and become better people.
It was very interesting flipping between the major news networks last night. MSNBC and CNN practically calling Brown a saint and Wilson a demon, FOX doing completely the opposite. The MSM is the biggest reason we have so many problems and are so divided. They pick things that can easily keep us divided. Like IrishEyes said, there are plenty other incidents that could have been hyped and supported that are much more clear cut and would be easier for a lot more people to get behind.

What's with the crazy question George Snuffleupagus asked, why he pursued the person that just attacked him? Did he really think a cop should sit and wait for backup before pursuing the person that just assaulted him?

So.... They are rioting because a black man, who was high, had just assaulted a store order and walked of with some smokes. Then he assaults a police officer and he gets shot. A group of citizens looked over the evidence and concluded no laws were broken and cleard the cop of the shooting. Then you hear his dad tell a group of people to "burn it down". We have the best system in the world and it cleared the good guy of any wrong doing. Facts are facts, he was a thug, the evidence supports that. This guy was not shot for singing too loud in church.
