Literally every despicable thing you can think of
Police just executed an unarmed 17 yr old brotha (shot 10 times)
- Thread starter Llano
- Start date
Literally every despicable thing you can think of
You bout to see the justice department dig into more of their insolved and officer involved killings where the Feds are going to subpena all their records and if found the department is complicit in murdering town residents
That entire police department is going to get disbanded and the state will have state and county police patrol ferguson
Literally every despicable thing you can think of
Town I'm from always had their own dispatch & it's about the same size now. Was smaller when I lived there. (Buena Vista, Michigan
It better happen. This shit seemed like protocol not a panic.
They called for crowd control
did not call for ems
still haven't where I am in the listening.
Claimed to not know anything
and literally called in the dogs...

That's exactly what happen
They weren't concerned about him. They knew he was dead.
They were trying to get their stories straight and then had to deal with all those witnesses and the crowd gathering. They knew they fucked up.
It is really hard for me to wrap my head around these new developments
So police called for backup for crowd control but no call was made for an medical attention for the murder who allegedly sustained injuries or the victim?
How is this a cover up? Sorry for asking dumb questions

But that's not how it is in St. Louis. I don't live there anymore, but St. Louis is just a city among many many smaller ones: Jennings, St. Ann, Florrisant, Bridgeton, Hazelwood. They even have a city next to Da Lou called Beverly Hills.
The news called police for crowd control based on information they had obtained from social media.
Police dispatch was perplexed? why do you need crowd control? we've had a peaceful day
Police officer who murdered Mike Brown never called in the shooting or request for EMS....his behavior suggests this is the normal plan of action for killing people of color.
...Meanwhile the news and talk radio is balls deep in Robin Williams coverage
Police didn't call for crowd control. News reporters called it in.
The police hadn't called that in yet, much less the officer involved shooting
Say even if Michigantoga is right, when the St Louis dispatch called over to Ferguson's about why crowd control was needed...they played dumb.
So either the cops didn't call it in or Ferguson's police department were trying to keep things in house.
Not sure where he got the stat from but...

right
where did this mysterious injury come from?
4 days later....
they're trying everything they can
everything.
Dog....
This shit got me LIVID!!!! OH MY GOD!
how the fuck you calling for assistance and I don't know what the hell for? They could have been sending those cops into a fuckin shit storm and they go in Unprepared! They putting other people's lives in danger now!
Oh we need help.... WHAT THE FUCK FOR???
And the news is calling for crowd control? OK so how do the fuckin news know about it before.... BEFORE the local PD know about it?
Think about that for a minute....
I don't have no news channel's phone number on fuckin speed dial. So somebody had time to find a phone number and call a news outlet, news outlet got time to drive there, they get there and look around like WHERE THE FUCK THA COPS AT? and then they call asking for help!!!! That tells u this was not a span of minutes but possibly HOURS before the shit really hit the fan and people gathered and this whole time MIKE BROWN'S DEAD BODY IS LYING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKIN STREET!
Isn't that a procedural break down off rip? How is a cop involved in a civilian shooting and he don't call his PD to let them know what the fuck is going on? Either he broke procedure or as you say (and as I believe) the cover up started IMMEDIATELY!!!!
I've had..... I've had enough of the internet for the day..... I can't do it man..... I just can't
I’m just out here working hard every single day, just trying to be the best poster I can be....
do you have to report an injury immediately, man?
What police got her phone?
She lying
She lying
corroborates Dorian Johnson's story to the
EXACT.
FUCKING.
LETTER.
and they don't even know each other.

Things To Stop Being Distracted By When A Black Person Gets Murdered By Police
A Black person is murdered by cops, security guards or self-appointed vigilantes every 28 hours in the U.S. The killing of an unarmed Black teenager named Mike Brown in Ferguson, MO, which has resulted in protests in that town and harsh police push-back and brutality against even more of its citizens, and which, via social media, has gotten the attention of people around the world, probably isn’t even the latest occurrence, at just three days old.
Talking to people on Twitter about Mike Brown and what’s happening in Ferguson right now, I’ve noticed (again) how easily folks get distracted when Black people are murdered by the police. It seems as though every detail is more interesting, more important, more significant—including looting of a Walmart in Ferguson, which a local Fox news station focused its entire coverage on—than the actual life that was taken by police.
So, to get folks back on track to focus on what matters most here—the killing of yet another unarmed Black teenager—I’ve compiled this list of 6 Things To Stop Being Distracted By When A Black Person Gets Murdered By the Police.
1. Over-Simplified Talk of “Riots”
According to media outlets and some residents, there’s been rioting in Ferguson since the killing of unarmed teenager Mike Brown. There have been reports of peaceful protests turning less than peaceful, with people confronting cops, throwing things at them, etc. I don’t know if the stories of rioting are true. Most of the video I’ve seen of Ferguson shows the protesters themselves gathered or marching relatively calmly. Angry sometimes, sure. But anger is a perfectly normal response to your unarmed teenage neighbor being gunned down in the street by police (police who have now showed up at your peaceful protest with attack dogs and riot gear).
But let’s get something straight: a community pushing back against a murderous police force that is terrorizing them is not a “riot”. It’s an uprising. It’s a rebellion. It’s a community saying We can’t take this anymore. We won’t take it. It’s people who have been dehumanized to the point of rightful rage. And it happens all over the world. Uprisings and rebellions are necessary and inevitable, locally and globally. This is not to say that actual riots don’t happen. White folks riot at sporting events, for example. Riots happen. But people rising up in righteous anger and rage in the face of oppression should not be dismissed as simply a “riot”.
Don’t be distracted by terms like “rioting”. Whether you’re for or against uprising and rebellion (side-eye if you’re against it, though), it’s a tool, not the issue itself. The issue is yet another Black teenager murdered by police. His name was Mike Brown.
2. Looting
Looting is often part of the “rioting” narrative. Peaceful protests that turn violent are often accompanied by looting. During the first night of the Ferguson protests there was looting reported at various locations nearby. Looting—stealing merchandise from vandalized businesses during a protest—happens separate from the actual protest taking place and its actual organizers and participants in every case I’ve ever heard about, anywhere, ever. Looting is often an opportunists’ game.
Looting, too, is about power. When people have nothing and something happens to remind them, in a big way, that what little they do have can be taken away in an instant, including their lives and the lives of their children, they may reach for any semblance of power or control they can get. That might mean breaking a window or even starting a fire. It may mean taking something. Something you’ve been told you can’t have because you’re not human enough to live, let alone prosper.
Also (and this important), looting as a crime is NOT on par with the taking of someone’s life. Property is not a life. In this country, police protect property while killing human beings. Sometimes they, as well as civilians, kill human beings in order to protect property. That’s wrong. That’s savagery.
Whatever you think of looting, though, remember this: it’s not the issue, either. The issue is yet another unarmed Black teenager murdered by cops. His name was Mike Brown.
3. Celebrities
Please don’t get distracted by celebrities. At times like this, famous people sometimes say really important, helpful, intelligent things. Other times, they open their mouths and the most ridiculous hot ass-garbage comes pouring out. (I’m looking at you, Morgan Freeman/Bill Cosby/Don Lemon.) Then everyone spends all day talking about the celebrity and what they said rather than talking about the issue.
The issue is yet another unarmed Black teenager murdered by cops. His name was Mike Brown.
4. The Murder Victim’s Past
I wish I didn’t have to tell some of you that victim-blaming when a Black person is murdered by police is a huge no. That it doesn’t matter if they were on the honor roll, or smoked weed sometimes, or were going to college, or what brand of hoodie they wore, or even if they spent time in jail at some point. That the right to walk down the street without being a target for murder by the police isn’t a right one should have to prove themselves worthy of. That we should all just have that right by virtue of being human beings.
When you’re Black, you don’t always get the benefit of being seen as a human being, though. Black people are seen as ‘up to no good’ by default. The truth is that our lives, like anyone else’s, are filled with good choices as well as mistakes, achievements we’re proud of as well as missed opportunities. Successes. Failures. Just like everyone else. But what’s also true is that we, as marginalized people, get fewer do-overs. The system is rigged to punish us at every possible opportunity. Longer prison sentences compared to whites who commit the same crimes and disproportionate rates of suspension and expulsion for even Black pre-schoolers attests to this.
If we were to talk about a victim’s past, we would have to talk about it in a context of oppression. But, you know what? We don’t need to talk about it at all. Because it is irrelevant to issue of their victimization. Just like bringing up a victim’s past to justify her rape is wrong, bringing up a victim’s past to justify his murder by police is also wrong. Yes, even when those people are Black.
The victim’s past isn’t the issue. The issue is yet another unarmed Black teenager murdered by police. His name was Mike Brown.
5. Respectability Politics
Respectability politics is part of almost all of the things I’ve listed here already. It plays its part in most of the ways we get distracted when a Black person is murdered by the police. It’s there in the idea that protests should always be non-violent; it’s there in the idea that looting erases someone’s humanity; it’s there in the idea that the victim’s past, if not squeaky-clean by white supremacist capitalist patriarchy’s standards, makes their victimization less valid. It’s always there in the way people talk about Black youth.
I’ve seen the following sentiment expressed on Twitter in response to Black folks murdered by police: “Stop giving them a reason to shoot you!” I’ve seen some version of that tweeted by people of all races, but the ones that concern me most come from Black folks themselves.
Y’all.
This country has spent the last several centuries systematically killing Black people. Black death is built into the system. Black death, alongside Native American genocide, built the system. Yet, whenever yet another unarmed Black person is killed by police, it’s somehow our fault? We must’ve been threatening/drunk/holding a BB gun/maybe possibly shoplifted some candy? Because after 500 years of never needing a reason, they suddenly need a reason? No. No. They have never needed a reason.
I understand how hard it is to accept that as a Black person your life means so little in this country that you can be killed by police for nothing. That walking down the street while Black can be the only reason your life, or the life of your son or daughter or father or partner or friend, ends. You want there to be another reason, any other reason.
Yesterday on Twitter, @prisonculture wrote, in response to a tweet suggesting Black people can dress better to avoid being murdered by the authorities:
…”looking the part” doesn’t help you brother…I’m so sorry. I feel so much compassion for you. How do you absorb & internalize that you are killable, always killable? You create your own fictions. To survive, to live. I understand.
I, too, understand that it’s hard. Almost too hard to bear. Who wants to have to carry these things? Especially when you’re young and dreaming of a life without barriers based on your skin color. But pretending we can “respectable” ourselves out of racism is dangerous. And it will not save you.
Please don’t let respectability politics distract you from the issue. The issue, again: yet another unarmed Black teenager murdered by police. His name was Mike Brown.
6. Lies Mainstream Media Tells You
Please understand and remember that MSM chooses what to show you and what not to show you. Remember how that news station I mentioned showed only looting? Well, by accounts of many folks in Ferguson that night, that was happening while the actual protesters were still protesting, their hands in the air, shouting “Don’t shoot!” at police officers in riot gear who were threatening them. Your MSM isn’t likely to show you that part.
Don’t be distracted by the sensationalized version, by the oppressor’s racist-colored lens that only captures nice police officers trying to do their jobs while animalistic Blacks steal TVs and burn shit down. Get your news from sources who stand in solidarity with oppressed people. I’m told that KSDK 5 and KMOV 4 may be non-terrible local news sources in Ferguson. But do your research, ask around, and find legit news. I’ve found the best sources to be Ferguson residents who are on Twitter. Right now, the folks behind This Week In Blackness, including Elon James White, are headed to Ferguson to report on what’s really going down there. Folks in Ferguson wanted them to come, and a quick campaign to raise money to get them there was fully-funded within 12 hours.
The MSM will tell you whatever it needs to tell you to get you to click on another link or watch for another 5 minutes. Pushing back against oppression isn’t on their list of things to do today. Don’t let them distract you from the issue.
The issue is yet another unarmed Black teenager murdered by the police. His name was Mike Brown.

I don't think this is the case, as I think there would have been movement or moaning or something...

by the reactions Im seeing on here and facebook,Im afraid to listen to the dispatch tapes.....
Yeah because that falls under not only the pending investigation but also workmans comp because of possible medical treatment.
Wow...they were subtly making Fergerson out to be the hood but it sounds like its the suburbs.
Looks like they're taking a page out of Zimmerman's play book, lump up the suspect and make him the victim...., but this wasn't in a secluded back alley at dusk, this was midday on a busy enough street.
Now they have to work on discrediting everybody that saw the EXACT SAME SHIT!
Now they have to work on discrediting everybody that saw the EXACT SAME SHIT!
Hold on bruh slow down. I actually came back in here because I'm really looking hard at this "news calling" shit too. So as far as your "orange" statement, I'm with you.
But let interject a little more fact that you may not have seen, absorbed, or may have forgotten before you assume the rest of your statement as fact (keep in mind I'm only kicking the tires with you because we're all trying to figure this thing out):
I'm quite sure the rap dude (whose twitter name is "Bruh" and who took the picture of a cop standing over Mike B's body while Bruh documented what he saw on twitter), snapped that photo around 12:05pm when Mike B was JUST KILLED only moments/ minutes earlier.
Dude was on twitter first saying "OMFG I just saw someone get killed [paraphrasing]". Then dude says something like "I'm going to hyperventilate!" Mind you, he's TWEETING this stuff from his house (Mike B is literally laying in the street in FRONT of his house). He may or may not have said one or two more tweets (I'm going off memory).
It's only after those comments that he actually goes and snaps the photo which has a time stamp of 12:05pm. This is very notable because even ANON used that for a reference.
In audio, it was around 12:05pm or shortly after that you here the request for backup.
Now here is my problem with this:
The boy JUST GOT SHOT - SO HOW DID THE NEWS GET THE WORD SO FAST UNLESS THEY WERE EITHER:
A) A code word for crooked cops to request a kill clean up team
B) Someone actually DID call the news who called dispatch
or
C) The News was already around on the scene waiting for something to happen per plan?
I hope it was B...
