Hell, they had sum'n goin' on out here in Vegas too, supposedly.
Do you know I remember someone saying this, or some variation of this, after the Rodney King incident, AND Amadou Diallo?
There is an issue with following through. I don't know why. However, anyone honest with themselves would have to agree.
Emotional outbursts won't cut it.
Emotion subsides after a point, and the people become exhausted.
A consistent movement based on principles, rather than raw emotion, could possibly prevent things like this from happening. Possibly.
I only say that because, they know we'll be outraged for a short bit, and go back to being inactive.
They may even look at it as a week or so of overtime duty after they kill one of us.
"Well, boys ... this will probably take a week or so at the most, and everything will go back to normal."
Would they be wrong?
For the life of me, I don't understand what our problem is. I'm deadly serious. I'm counting myself in the number. I'm disgusted with myself. I'm so sick to my stomach, I haven't been on BGOL wildin' out and talking about white bitches every other post. I can but barely control my anger. However, like with the Trayvon Martin, in which I was in a rage for like three weeks after the verdict, everything went back to normal.
I shouldn't be fucking with these white bitches at all. Not just when one of my own get fucked up and now I'm reminded of who they really are.
I know hoping doesn't solve shit, but it's all I can do in regards to us not having the same response to every situation that affects us negatively.

http://www.theguardian.com/world/20...-body-cameras-cuts-violence-complaints-rialto
The occupant was said to be violent, so officer Carlos Ramirez approached the apartment warily. A dank smell wafted from inside. Ramirez bristled with body armour, radio, gun and Taser, but before knocking on the door he adjusted just one piece of equipment: a tiny camera on his collar.
A tubby, barefoot man with broken teeth and wild eyes opened the door. He appeared to be high. Ramirez questioned him about allegedly beating and evicting his stepson, a mentally disabled teenager. The man shifted from foot to foot and babbled about death threats.
The encounter, tense but polite, ended inconclusively, a routine police foray into family dysfunction – except for the fact it was all recorded. As he returned to his patrol car and next assignment, Ramirez tapped an app on his phone and uploaded the video. "Somewhere down the line something could happen and what that guy said, his demeanour, could be evidence."
Rialto, a small, working-class city that bakes in the San Bernardino foothills outside Los Angeles, appeared in the films Transformers and The Hangover. Among law enforcers, however, it is becoming better known for pioneering the use of body cameras on police officers.
Over the past year all 70 of its uniformed officers have been kitted out with the oblong devices, about the size of stubby cigars, and the results have emboldened police forces elsewhere in the US and in the UK to follow suit.
The College of Policing recently announced plans for*large-scale trials*of body-worn video in England and Wales, saying Rialto's experiment showed big drops in the use of force and in public complaints against officers. David Davis, a former shadow home secretary, has backed the idea. It follows"plebgate's denting of public trust.
Rialto has also become an example for US forces since a federal judge in New Yorkpraised its initiative.
"I think we've opened some eyes in the law enforcement world. We've shown the potential," said Tony Farrar, Rialto's police chief. "It's catching on."
Body-worn cameras are not new. Devon and Cornwall police launched a pilot scheme in 2006 and forces in Strathclyde, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, among others, have also experimented.
But Rialto's*randomised controlled studyhas seized attention because it offers scientific – and encouraging – findings: after cameras were introduced in February 2012, public complaints against officers plunged 88% compared with the previous 12 months. Officers' use of force fell by 60%.
"When you know you're being watched you behave a little better. That's just human nature," said Farrar. "As an officer you act a bit more professional, follow the rules a bit better."
Video clips provided by the department showed dramatic chases on foot – you can hear the officer panting – and by car that ended with arrests, and without injury. Complaints often stemmed not from operational issues but "officers' mouths", said the chief. "With a camera they are more conscious of how they speak and how they treat people."
The same applied to the public; once informed they were being filmed, even drunk or agitated people tended to become more polite, Farrar said. Those who lodged frivolous or bogus complaints about officers tended to retract them when shown video of the incidents. "It's like, 'Oh, I hadn't seen it that way.'"
Cameras made officers more careful about using force. "It's still part of the business, they still do it. But now they make better use of what we call verbal judo."
Fewer complaints and calmer policing, said Farrar, would reduce lawsuits and expensive payouts.
Images of police brutality have shakenCalifornia*since grainy footage of Los Angeles police officers beating Rodney King ignited riots in 1992. (Rialto police fished King out of his pool after he accidentally drowned last year).
In May sheriff's deputies in Kern county confiscated videophone footage of them fatally beating a father-of-four, David Silva,prompting suspicion of a cover-up.http://articles.latimes.com/2013/may/13/local/la-me-ln-bakersfield-beating-20130513 In those and other cases the officers did not know they were being filmed.
Farrar is a wonkish contrast to the stereotypical abrasive commander of TV dramas. He has several degrees, including a recent master's from*Cambridge's Institute of Criminology, which planted the idea of methodically assessing the impact of body cameras.
Upon returning to Rialto (city motto: "bridge to progress") he obtained $100,000 (£62,640) in state and federal funding for the Taser-made cameras – about $1,000 each – plus servers and fibre-optic cables. Each officer has his or her own camera, mounted on collars, spectacles or caps, and is expected to activate it during interactions with the public. Encounters are logged and uploaded to a secure digital cloud service,evidence.com.
The chief advised bigger departments who wish to do the same to scale up incrementally, to iron out technical bugs and let officers get used to the idea.
In Rialto some bristled at the intrusion, fearing loss of privacy and autonomy. "I heard guys complaining it would get them into trouble, but I've had no problems so I'm OK with it," said Ramirez.
Most now accepted cameras as another part of the job, said Sgt Josh Lindsay. A self-confessed technophile, he said they provided context to contentious incidents partially captured by bystanders' phones. "Now you can see the [suspect] punching the officer twice in the face before he hits him with his baton."
Even more valuable, cameras aided evidence gathering, such as statements from domestic abuse victims, he said. "By the time those cases get to court often things have cooled down and the victim retracts. But with the video you see her with the bloody lip. There's nothing lost in translation."
Under California law police are not obliged to inform people of the filming. Local media coverage has spread awareness of the cameras but many, like the barefoot man questioned by Ramirez, appear oblivious. If there is to be a backlash, it is too early.
Even Orwell did not anticipate body cameras in 1984, but the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California, a frequent critic of police abuses, said with the right controls accountability gains would outweigh privacy concerns. It urged the department to regularly delete videos, and keep them private, unless needed forprosecutions.
Farrar said controls were in place. "No one wants to see these videos on YouTube."
I’m just out here working hard every single day, just trying to be the best poster I can be....
I totally agree with you
We dont even know what we want...how do we expect white people to know?
This shit will all be forgotten in 2 weeks if there isnt any organization
I thought about this
What doesnt make sense to me is how bad it was on wednesday and they let it all play out...if the governor all the way up to the president was unhappy how it played out...how was it allowed to happen in the first time...unless it was supposed to happen
OK so when we say "what we want" are we talking specifically with this case or with prevention of this going forward? Because civil rights/liberties have been absolutely DESTROYED and TRAMPLED in this incident in particular. But with a full investigation being pressed by the POTUS things should get better on that front.
So what exactly is meant by that statement "what we want"?
Because what we want, or should want, is what Rialto California's PD has.

A test that failed cause that shit ain't gonna fly no where else lol
"Got"???Shit been real.
I know things have been bad
Im taking about the use of military force...they have upped the ante dont u agree?
I think so. Somebody posted sum'n about it some pages back & said sum'n about da store owner said he wasn't stealin' shit.
Darren Wilson is the pigs name
Same here bro
Now the question is where is the video footage of this robbery? I'm sure this suspect description won't look anything like Michael Brown (other than being black)
How'd you find this out???
Its to muddy the waters. Dude on MSNBC just said that the actions of the officer wasn't the actions of someone that suspected Mike Brown of robbing the store. Telling someone get out the street isn't how you act with a suspect.
I just saw it on CNN
I smell an end game attempt. They're trying to condition the minds of those who are about to see those vids. Did you notice the way the chief was talking? He sounded kind of unsure about what he was saying, and he took no questions. This is going to be interesting.
Man that bitch was all over the place. He knows what really happened trust me. But that bitch was nervous and was reading that shit quick and got the fuck outta there.
BREAKING NEWS: Darren Wilson Identified As Officer Who Fatally Shot Michael Brown
Darren Wilson Identified As Officer Who Fatally Shot Michael Brown
After almost a week, Police Chief Thomas Jackson has identified Darren Wilson as the officer who fatally shot unarmed, black teen Michael Brown on Saturday in Ferguson, Missouri.
Jackson also announced the department would be releasing video of a "strong-armed robbery" that took place in the area. He outlined events that took place beginning at 11 a.m. the day of the shooting and offered an account of the incident that implies officers confronted Brown in connection with the robbery.
Although Jackson initially said the name would be released on Tuesday, the police department later announced it would not be releasing the officer's name out of fear for his safety.
Julie Bosman, a correspondent for The New York Times, said Wilson is a six-year veteran of the force with no history of disciplinary action.
Jackson confirmed that report and also said Wilson was treated for injuries after the incident.
The nation has erupted in outrage and taken to the streets in both peaceful and violent protests since the fatal confrontation. For days, images coming out of the St. Louis suburb presented a harrowing picture of unrest as police fired tear gas and rubber bullets at protesters and placed demonstrators and journalists under arrest.
The climate has changed drastically since Thursday, when President Barack Obama condemned authorities' use of excessive force and Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon (D) called in the state's highway patrol to take over supervision of the suburb.
Police said Brown, 18, was shot multiple times Saturday after being confronted by a white officer. The FBI opened an investigation into Brown's death on Monday. Authorities initially offered vague details about the confrontation but said the officer involved had been placed on administrative leave.

if they can release footage of an irrelevant robbery to try and justify the use of excessive force then they can release the actual shooting that lady was supposed to have caught on her phone and gave to police

yup...they wanna try to justify the use of excessive force when dealing w/ a potential suspect
......
That robbery suspect looks like a much older man c'mon son that don't look like Michael Brown their trying to justify the shooting with lies that's why a took more than a week to hold the press conference and why can't the store clerk identify if it was Michael Brown I'm sure he has seen a pictures of him all over the news the store clerk definitely saw the so called robber face
and why can't the store clerk identify if it was Michael Brown I'm sure he has seen a pictures of him all over the news the store clerk definitely saw the so called robber face
