    Idk enough about this case to make an educated but some of yall are naive when it comes to cops and how they handle situations

    It's been hard for me to get worked up about this the way I was when Oscar Grant/Trayvon were killed

    Dude just robbed a store not stole from but robbed and refused to move out of the middle of the street...he was a ? ?

    As for cops, it's easy for everybody to say shoot him in the legs or tase him

    Cops have lost their lives trying to do exactly that...in that moment, they just reacting

    Who knows who is telling the truth cause one party ain't here to tell his story

    It's just weird to me that this is the case that got ? riled up, not one of the truly innocent kids who lost their lives but cause of this case

    You're right, there are worse cases like the examples you gave

    This is still a situation where there is reason to believe the cop acted unreasonably and used excessive force though

    There's 2 sides to the story, and then the truth. The "evidence" that is presented does not match the story that Wilson is telling. The biggest bruise Wilson had was on his trigger finger. The Grand jury was composed of 6 white men, 3 white women, 2 black women, and only 1 Black male. Again 1 Black male, think about that. If you choose to believe justice was served, you are a sheep whom goes along with what the media feeds. You said it yourself, you don't know much about the case. Please take a keen eye through the evidence and the story told, and use logic. The main premise of Wilson's reason to ? Brown was that he was so huge, and feared that he could not handle him -basically the same ? Zimmerman cowardly shot Trayvon for.

    You are defending dude because he is a cop and risks his life. Those same cop complete training and are encouraged to NUETRALIZE the threat, not obliterate it. There are KNOWN killers who were in the act of Killing with weapon in hand whom have been detained without any lethal force, but you are trying to justify the killing of an unarmed dude. It is law that you nuetralize your threat, after nuetralizing the threat, you have a level playing field, anything more and you are now the aggressor.

    If we are going to allow Officers to ? because the citizen was larger than him, and he was scared, then 70% of Black Males are in trouble. I would hate to have a moment where I lose my cool, and killed because the officer was intimidated by my size and got trigger happy



    He did have a extreme size advantage
    6'4 to 6'6 is not an extreme size advantage

    wait a minute, I thought both of them were 6'4?

    the cop was 210 and Brown was 289

    that's not a large enough difference to claim you were in fear enough to irrationally murder someone

    80 lbs is huge

    I dare you to go cage fight someone 80 lbs heavier than you

    So he'd basically be Lord Jamar?

    Stop Dickriding that man. He wouldn't do ? , just like he didn't do ? when Malice Green was beaten to death, like when Rodney King was pummeled. Tupac ain't do a damn thing but ? think he supernigga and was going to make a difference. He was just a ? that was gonna make some songs and vlad TV interviews.

    In a way Pharrell is right, but said conversation needs to be had separately from ones being held about the Michael Brown case due to the outcome, that being the unjustified death of one of our youth.

    But yes, bullying and aggression do need to be talked about; That's unarguable, honestly..

    These celebrities are so ? out of touch with society its not even funny, there are plenty of ppl talking about MB bullyish behavior and it's mostly white folks who use that as a talking point to justify what Wilson did. Did these same people say when 911 happened, that's what we get for our bullyish behavior ? no. This country is a ? joke, ppl cant put aside their differences to see even beyond the race angle of this that the way we train our cops is beyond broken. Whether he was a thug(which is the new word for ? btw) or not doesn't mean you get killed for a pack of ? cigarillos. Even Obama missed that point.

    Those ? are rip-offs.



    Maybe Tupac Shakur wasn't philanthropic in nature (who knows what he did in his private moments?) but he definitely wasn't afraid to speak his mind anywhere about the Black cause in America.. .

    Tupac was a great rapper but that's it. He was a rapper not a civil rights leader and he talked as much about killing black folks as he did about uplifting them.

    Again, stop canonizing that ? .
