i think wilson has been involved with 2 corrupt police organizations. this is either coincidence, or a pattern. either way, i think it is the culture inside the police force that influences these young officers to act a certain way."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

Agree, and im reading the stl area cops are kkk members or are affiliated with kkk. some pretty good evidence that Wilson GF is a member.gimmesometruth27 said:JC29856 said:http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/darren-wilsons-first-job-was-on-a-troubled-police-force-disbanded-by-authorities/2014/08/23/1ac796f0-2a45-11e4-8593-da634b334390_story.html

Another thing that surprised me, domestic abuse perpetrated by cops, GF and wives of cops are twice as likely to be victims of DA. I think it's like 1 in 3. Imaging being the victim and having to call the cops to report that.Post edited by JC29856 on0 -
Well you might get my team and I in your city if your city goes to shit. I sure hope not, I got a Bears game to go 2 tomr and deer hunting all next week.

Now,now there is plenty of room in this conversation for all points of view.I don't think anyone on here condones the actions of either brown or Wilson.But regardless lawlessness from protesters or law enforcement can not be tolerated.Is this case really about race.Im not so sure it is.0

From the first story: In order for a police department to weather a storm like that, it has to have social capital. And this police department didn’t have social capital in that community.JC29856 said:http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/darren-wilsons-first-job-was-on-a-troubled-police-force-disbanded-by-authorities/2014/08/23/1ac796f0-2a45-11e4-8593-da634b334390_story.html

I think, to some degree, this statement helps explain why 10C community members (among many others of course) are- to varying degrees- 'somewhat' divided on this issue.
I speak from a region where our police have served us very well for many years and have earned much respect from the community. This, I guess, is why I often have been an outspoken advocate in various threads for police people doing police work. I have respect for police and the critical work they do.
If I spoke from a region where police work has consistently been shoddy and felt my community has not been served professionally with a growing list of similar incidents as blemishes on the police force... it's likely I would be more inclined to blame Wilson entirely for the incident and have very little empathy for a man who performed poorly in what can be called an extremely tense and dangerous policing situation.
The story leading up to the fatal shots fired is likely somewhere in the middle. With such varied accounts, I don't know for certain what happened prior to Wilson fatally firing his last shots. I believe there was a struggle of some sort and that Wilson- gaining the upper hand- failed to restrain himself and shot Brown dead. As such, I think that Brown kind of made his own bed 'poking the bear' or 'tempting fate' if you will. I also think that Wilson should be held accountable to some degree for his display of excessive force that killed a man... and I'm not exactly sure to what degree?
I now am left with the feeling that things might go very badly. I'm curious to know if the powers that be have gauged the potential aftermath of a ruling that won't satisfy the growing masses. And I'm curious to know if they would let their assessments impact any ruling. Lastly, in the event decisions have been made to minimize potential damaging reactionary events... can any influenced decision be called justice?"My brain's a good brain!"0 -

I noticed some smartass little remark as a reply to one of my posts stating 'you had no time to read' (or something like that). But given the series of posts you contributed in the same night resembled those coming from a man very high on glue... I let it pass.
This isn't an agreement circle jerk forum. This is a discussion forum. Don't be surprised that others don't feel the exact same as you and don't make the presumption that you know best.

You wrote it. You should probably remember it. If not, you might have to read a bit back. It's in the middle of a bunch of your self quotes, links with no descriptions and incoherent ramblings.JC29856 said:

I can't believe I am asking for this, but can you post one of those fun links you always seem to find on"the STL area cops are KKK members" I need some more mourning laughs having my coffee and donut. I already read the Onion and couldn't find It in there.JC29856 said:
