Police just executed an unarmed 17 yr old brotha (shot 10 times)

[dagoon121]

I was very sad and disappointed when I heard the news that this young brother had robbed a damn store. His
mother had us believe he was a big teddy bear who wouldn't harm a fly. He was just a young cool kid who was
on his way to his grand-mothers house when he was accosted by the police for walking in the street. In just a
few days he was on his way to college. With a story like that we all need to get behind a brother like that.

Man the way he threw that clerk around this guy has thug written all over his ass. These type of motherfuckers
are in the the ATL everyday doing home invasions killing innocent families on the regular. A motherfucker
robbing a fucking store is not normal behavior. My friends and I were never robbing people when we were kids,
shit never entered our mind. All we wanted to know was where is the pussy.

I know what I'm saying is not popular, but we can't use up our resources and good will on this dude, no way in
hell I would be out on the street championing a dude that in any day might be robbing or killing my ass.

My Father told us when we were kids and throughout our lives until he died, he said "Son there are 2 things I hate in life, a liar and a thief"

My God bless the soul of this young brother

HNIC

Dude u missing the point.
This is about black power
There are towns like Ferguson all over the usa
We are not treated fairly period.
That's our battle.
If we was treated fairly from jump
Mike probably wouldn't have to resort to stealing.
We are losing our values as a culture/race
Due to the unjustice of white supremacy

 

[HNIC]

I'm not falling into any trap, I'm pointing out what is happening. Are they are are they not changing the subject?
I'm just stating the fact that he is no longer being viewed in the same light by the media. Me personally I feel bad
that the young brother lost his life. When his Mother was crying I could truly feel her sadness. I have had many friends
in the past who turned their lives around, but in this case and at this moment, this young brother is a flawed martyr.

HNIC

Right. She was "chosen" as a pre-emptive strategic move to battle devious and dishonest tactics used by white supremacist that would direct all focus on her while diverting from the actual criminal or heinous act perpetrated by the offender. Do you not realize by focusing on this young mans character and not the character or crime of the murderer you are falling into the mindset and trap of the 1960s white supremacist?

Do you not see the problem here? You have effectively directed your attentions and energies toward the dead man while the one holding the smoking gun gets away clean.

Why do black victims have to be angels and pass credibility test and background checks before their known guilty assailants are taken to task?

The chief was on TV telling you people the cop had no idea he was a suspect and the stop was predicated on him walking in the middle of the street, yet you still got your eyes focused in the wrong direction.

3 eyewitnesses have said an unarmed, surrendering man was shot as he pleaded for his life. How the fuck does stealing cigars remotely justify that?

HNIC

You'll be hard pressed to find somebody by the time of adulthood that hasn't either lied or stole something. It was disappointing for me too to see him in that video doing what he was doing but I'm not going to condemn him solely off that. The fact still remains that he was executed by a cop who didn't even know that Mike stole the cigarellos.

I'm not going put all my business out here but when I was 18, I was doing shit worse than Mike Brown from stealing and selling dope. I was young and dumb but I matured as a man, got through college and changed my life around. It pains me to know that this brotha was on his way to college and who knows if he could have matured and changed his views on life in the same manner I did. He was wrong for stealing but the biggest tragedy is that he lost his life to a trigger happy cop and we'll never know how the story would have unfolded for him.

Seems da narrative da media & FPD has conjured up has worked on some. hypster63, Alexander, cashwhisperer, JamesATL, HNIC (Walter's foster brother) & others. Niggas got them tap shoes & handkerchiefs tied on mighty tight. Just look at 'em. Niggas talm'bout "robbers", "robbery", "thug", "bully" (all buzzwords) etc. as though petty theft equates to such. Y'all bitch ass niggas are pathetic & these same Mantan ass dudes also need to be exterminated for da betterment of da communities. It's already been said that that lil' store bullshit had nothin' ta' do w/why they were stopped & y'all still persist. Even if it was, it doesn't justify gettin' gunned down while tryin' to surrender. Cakeboy ass niggas, man. Sickening.

 

[grownazzblakman]

You are all over the place with your response, but yes robbery is thug behavior.
Since when are robbers heroes? I hate them motherfuckers.
Should he have been executed, NO
I'm talking about the movement that is going to be derailed because of the behavior of this
individual. Just watch what happens the next few days and see if they don't start speaking
differently about this case and this young man.

This is a debate, keep you cool

HNIC

First of all, I never called any robbers... "heroes".

Second of all, you never answered the question... if something tragic (like this) happened to YOU personally... and the only information cops put out ABOUT YOU, was... that you ran a 'porno message board'... does that mean you should not be supported by OTHER black folks, in the aftermath?

That response is not 'all over the place'.

If people started protesting for justice for HNIC.... should they all stop, or get derailed.... if the cops ever mentioned this?

That's all I was asking you.
I never lost my cool.

You just completely avoided the question & changed the subject.

Whatever man. It is what it is.

I'm done.

Some great point but

Man stealing or not don't matter...The stolen cigars ain't the reason Mike is dead.


The dude stop running, turned around put his hands up, got on his knees asked the police to not shoot again and the rest is history....just so happen we're around to witness His-Story.

 

[ShortyCumStain]

Why da fuck are y'all niggas still using da term "robbers"??? Who was robbed???

 

[14damoney]

I agree that he was executed and it is a tragic, I hope it isn't him in the video.
If it is him he could have very well turned his life around in time. But at this moment in time,
when the Ferguson police department is under so much scrutiny, and it was looking like change was a
coming. This is not the guy you need out front to rally the troops around, provided he is the robber.

During the civil right movement do you really think Rosa Parks just happened to be on that damn bus?
She was put there on purpose because he character was beyond reproach. If it was anyone else they could
have changed the subject and started talking about her flaws, They were not able to do that with Ms Parks.

I feel like Stephen A Smith on this one, the young brothers death was tragic and definitely a murder, but
if the white power structure can label this guy a thug, all of the momentum will be lost.

HNIC

The momentum WILL be lost IF WE ALLOW IT. I understand that this is a blow to the progress made thus far, but is also an opportunity to expose how the system treats us. And trust, it is being exposed.

Even right now, all kind of reporters and news outlets are wondering "what the hell does this robbery have to do with Mike Brown's murder?"

White people believe we are potential criminals whether we are or not. That's why it means nothing to them when a Black man is executed in the streets. They feel it's justifiable because "he's a potential criminal".

That must change. Even if Mike Brown stole those cigarillos, HIS LIFE IS STILL VALUABLE.

This is one of the best opportunities I can recall, to force a change in the system because we are dealing with some bumbling idiots in that police force and the local government. They think they can hide shit like in the old days while not realizing that this truly is the information age and that the spotlight is on them.

Their prejudice is out for the world to see, and we will see some positive change IF we don't succumb to the trickery.

WE HAVE TO TEACH AMERICA THAT EVEN IF A BLACK PERSON HAS FLAWS, THEY DO NOT DESERVE DEATH ON SITE. If a black person is not in the process of killing or hurting, then they don't deserve death.

That's basically the root of the problem anyway, they are SCARED of us. Don't be discouraged though because we have a great opportunity here...

You arguin' w/da same dude that has allowed known trolls & undercover crackas to spew racist vitriol all over this board for years & to keep allowing them to come back for a measly 10 bucks a pop. You're wasting font.

 

[Mask]

 

[SPECTRE1]

I posted in the politics section that this crime is much more complex. It is similar to the vehicles that follow and potentially crash into me to make it look like an accident.

No longer will I tolerate any planned/suspicious 'accident', a shooting, or any other event. It will result in certain death for the perpetrators.

I don't need to put up with some racist fool who thinks that his planning and execution will prevent his detection by the police who may also be involved. This person will be dealing with me in a deadly confrontation

Don't know why HNIC keeps insisting on interjecting his experience about a robbery, especially when the cops themselves said the store incident wasn't relevant to the kid being killed.

And what business was this HNIC? I've been here since 98 and I ain't never heard of you having no other business

Motherfucker you just can't drive.

 

[HNIC]

I agree with most of what you said (didn't read it all cause it was just an attack on me), but you
didn't understand one thing I said. I'm sure there are other who get what I'm saying and will attack
me on that angle. We probably agree more than we disagree.

HNIC

Man. You act like he committed or was accused of an arm robbery. For one, he was still innocent until proven guilty in the court of law. The kid did NOT have a criminal record. Also, the cop who approached him was NOT there because of the alleged strong-armed robbery.

From all we know, this kid did nothing that should have ended with him being executed in broad daylight like a wild dog that needed to be put down.

Cops aren't judge, jury, and executioner.

You're sounding very Walter right now.

We can rally behind all black people who deserve justice. Whether he was a straight A student or a kid that got into an altercation and stole some cigarros at a corner store, he did not deserve to be executed in broad daylight, period.

 

[HNIC]

I agree with everything you said

You'll be hard pressed to find somebody by the time of adulthood that hasn't either lied or stole something. It was disappointing for me too to see him in that video doing what he was doing but I'm not going to condemn him solely off that.

Encouraging and supporting Representative Jamilah Nasheed's, ( Jamilah.Nasheed@house.mo.gov ). Request for STL County Prosecutor Bob McCulloch to recuse himself from this case is a way anyone can help at this point.

Grand Jury or no, he's gonna be what matters.

FERGUSON, Mo. (KMOX) - Today, in a two-page letter to St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCulloch, State Senator Jamilah Nasheed (D-St. Louis) requested that McCulloch recuse his office from the investigation into the shooting death of Michael Brown so that a special prosecutor can be appointed to oversee the investigation.

Nasheed explained, “This racially charged climate demands an independent investigation, and to be perfectly blunt, the African-American community has no confidence that your office can carry out an impartial investigation and prosecution.”

She cited several reasons for this lack of confidence, including McCullochs’ failure to bring charges against police officers accused of killing two African American men in 2000 – even in the face of the findings from an independent U.S. Attorney Office investigation that those officers had lied about their behavior and fired 20 shots into the unarmed victims’ vehicle.

Nasheed also criticized McCulloch’s active participation in St. Louis County’s recent Primary Election and appealed to McCulloch not to further divide the community.

“For the good of the entire St. Louis community I call on you to show statesmanship and step aside in this matter,” Nasheed writes.

Can someone explain to me why is seems like a party is going on in Ferguson?

 

[Uncontainable_Spirit]

Based on how 6'5 suspect roughed up that little ass Indian, pretty sure there was some physical altercations,

He made physical contact with the store guy that changes it to strong arm, so what's next niggas gone protest the strong arm robbery laws?

Red Herring.

Here is the ONLY question that matters.

Was or was not the police officer guilty of committing the crime of murder by shooting an unarmed person, who had his hands raised in the universal sign of surrender, until he died?

That's the ONLY question.

Can you answer that please?

 

[AlexanderNevermind]

Can someone explain to me why is seems like a party is going on in Ferguson?

That's what they do. I am waiting for the twerk videos on world star. Shit is looking like a block party. Are the retro Jordans soon to be released, are they passing out Nikki Manij album covers, free BEATS?

 

[HNIC]

grownazzblakman If I was unjustly murdered on the street and black folks were outraged about how I
died, then it was later found out that I ran a porno board that had illegal content, it would derail
the movement. You need someone clean to lead a movement even in death. That's all I'm saying.

The incident in Ferguson was really about to change the way policing is done across the country as
well as in Ferguson. The Militarization of policing was being looked at hard. The Police Chief was
probably going to be fired. All of this change was happening because of the pristine reputation of the
victim. When the victims name was sullied, the script is now being re-written and like another member
stated, there is a good change the cop will get off. That's all I was saying. Big changes was about to
happen, but now I don't know.

HNIC

First of all, I never called any robbers... "heroes".

Second of all, you never answered the question... if something tragic (like this) happened to YOU personally... and the only information cops put out ABOUT YOU, was... that you ran a 'porno message board'... does that mean you should not be supported by OTHER black folks, in the aftermath?

If people started protesting for justice for HNIC.... should they all stop, or get derailed.... if the cops ever mentioned this?

I never lost my cool.

Whatever man. It is what it is.

I'm done.

 

[Uncontainable_Spirit]

I get all that, but again prior to the shooting at what point do people take responsibility for their own actions? He committed a crime prior to being dealt with the law. When you commit a crime, I can't complain or cry about how you get handled with by the law.

Are you serious?

Here is what your sentence SHOULD read:

"When you commit a crime, I can't complain or cry about how you get handled with by the law for the crime you committed."

The way you are stating it is that regardless of the crime you commit any action is acceptable.

Strong Arm Robbery is not a crime deserving of death.

 

[AlexanderNevermind]

Red Herring.

Here is the ONLY question that matters.

Was or was not the police officer guilty of committing the crime of murder by shooting an unarmed person, who had his hands raised in the universal sign of surrender, until he died?

Let's see when the evidence comes out.

dudes still debating this IRRELEVANT ass video and there's still no pic/much info about the shooter/shooting other than a random ass name this is insane..."oh yeah he got shot for no reason but as fate would have it he was a cigar stealing thug"...fucking sickening

Can someone explain to me why is seems like a party is going on in Ferguson?

On tv they showed areas that were festive in memorial and others that were more conservative with protesters marching and chanting. I have no problem with either. The community seems together with a common purpose. Thats whats important here.

 

[Mask]

Believe me I know....

 

[shaddyvillethug]

HNIC what's your angle?

 

[Uncontainable_Spirit]

I'm convinced that some of us simply like to argue for the sake of arguing. Issue at hand be damned. It doesn't matter if he stole swishers. The cop is on trial here, not Mike Brown.

The cop is on trial here, not Mike Brown.

Because Mike Brown was already tried, found guilty and executed.
