I've already read some stuff that the victim was reaching into his car after repeated orders to get on the ground or something like that
but anyway there's another riot (free shopping day and right to violence)

just thought this could use it's own thread rather than derail another one.

    Also at that scene no gun or any other weapon was found while that man was reading that book. I hope his son didn't see that shooting.

    The police are saying there was a gun found at the scene, take it with a shot of grain. That could mean anything.

    Black man whose one leg is out the NFL door takes a false stand on an issue he knows nothing about to avoid being cut by said team..where was he while when he was repping beats by Dre on every damn channel and the starting QB...that's right he said and did jack shit...rest of NFL follows like sheep after said knee

    as far as shootings the guy in the road broke down, that's a tough site to see and the cops were trigger happy, but when are people going to realize to do EXACTLY what the cops say especially now in a time where their lives are just as at risk as ever

    Maybe they should come out with that information much sooner than they do....not saying the riots are justified but it shouldn't take the chief of police this long to issue a response.

    Uncivilized, barbarian, violent, primitive. Unfortunately, the PC police have taken savage and turned it into a racist word, much like thug. I'm old enough that I grew up using thug and savage without regard to color or race. They describe(d) behavior. If someone is opposed to the use of those words, then it is perhaps they who have an issue with race. i don't think race when I see those words (until hyper-sensitive people point out that these are their trigger words and they need to run to a safe space). PC police don't get to redefine words. I will continue to use thug and savage where appropriate. And yes, white people can and have historically been savages. Same with natives, blacks, Asians, Hispanics, etc... Again, the word describes behavior.

    PC police aren't redefining words. Thug is almost exclusively used for black people. Pay attention when you see it used. It's the new N word.

    Nope. This same thing came up with thug in another thread. There are those who only see color when they hear the word, and those who don't. I am shocked an appalled when I hear the N word. That is clearly racist and unacceptable. But savage and thug are accurate descriptors for uncivilized behavior without regard to race. If one is using it in a racist way, then sure, knock it off. And just because Tupac thought he was hard, and adopted the thug label, doesn't mean the rest of us have to fall in line. I never gave two shits about Tupac, or his phoney thuggery. Thug predates Tupac by centuries.

    tough one there man, before any details of a police officer involved shooting I believe there is an investigation right ?
    any time you hear about this stuff early or as it happens it's because of the media who only want ratings and half truths to
    get you interested.

    All you have to do is pay attention to when thug is used. Nearly all the time, it's used for black people. You might think your usage is different. That's fine. Maybe you've called white people thugs in an amt thread that had to do with whites behaving badly.

    Agreed.

    This word is a good word and has not been stolen to be used exclusively for black people misbehaving. It's appropriate for all thugs whether they are are purple, white, black or roygbiv.

    The thread where this was discussed offered multiple examples of the term used for white people (Vancouver and Australia government officials in the public forum).

    all you have to do is pay attention to who uses the word most to describe themselves, thug life, thug this, thug that ...you're
    race baiting with the cards stacked against you on that one.
