    Fox knows nothing about Blacks they just defend the shooters or killers of Blacks.

    Why aren't there more news stories about the two cops here in Tulsa, OK who gunned down this black teenager who merely attempted to introduce himself to his new girlfriend's daddy???


    Well one reason could be because they were both (mom and dad) arrested but the story is still so tragic nonetheless . . . he had no reason to fear being shot just for being polite and respectful when the occasion arose to do what would be socially expected of any new paramour for a young maiden:smt013.

    Whoa, how can you say that?

    Do you know any police officers? I guess not. There's alot of good police officers out there. Meeting one in plain clothes is different than the uniform they wear daily. I know a few, but I don't associate with them.

    However, this is not the case. There's a murdering cop in Ferguson that's being sheltered by two police departments right now.:(

    There you go.

    The reason other shootings get so much attention is because the perps who are responsible for taking black life rarely have to answer for it. Look at the Zimmermna case. Dude didn't get charged for over a month until it became a national story.

    Funny thing is people outside America have no idea that unnecessary shooting of unarmed black men by cops are very common in America. For every Ferguson case reported there are 4 which are not given the same prominence:cool:

    This was a domestic violence case involving parents, thier acrimonious relationship with their daughter and her new boiyfriend, not 'cops targetting blacks". The father will hopefully rot for killing the boyfriend. Very tragic.

    Breaking the law means you deserve to get shot now?

    "Breaking the law' is a huge broad spectrum....Many instances, you indeed will be shot.

    As a plain citizen who owns a gun, there are instances I would shoot another. Foe example, if they were trying to break into my house and not heeding my warnings, or were viciously harming me, or my loved ones. (ie: they are breaking the law.). And l actually have a lawful right to do so in many instances.

    Agreed, TDK! Paniro's logic is just insane.

    What does that have to do with the topic at hand?:-?

    Read Hershel's opening comment.

    And why not just blog under your normal name here?

    The police can arrest criminals, remove them from the streets, have the DA charge them in the court of law, and supposedly protect them from other criminals in some cases. Anyone guilty or not should be able to be comfortable surrendering to the cops. That is not a reality when the police are allowed to openly and willingly break the law. Especially when they ignore the fact that the courts have a very important role to play. How can the judicial branch of government be removed from the equation by the decision of one law enforcement officer? When a policeman is allowed to be judge, jury and executioner upon arriving on the scene, it speaks volumes about or society. Even if you remove race from the equation we are still talking about a serious problem. If you remove race from the equation of black on black crime, you simply have criminals in Chicago killing each other as criminals are expected to do. Apples and oranges.

    Actually, I'm so tired of people like you, Lippy and Paniro using the PC-ness card and putting down blacks everytime someone points out that blacks are victims of instituitionalized racism, crimes(robberies, murders, beatings, etc.) and if you meant by my normal name is my real name, then sorry, I need some privacy in my life.

    I am assuming you are speaking in generalities or are you referring to a specific case?

    Because there are sometimes mitigating circumstances for when police shoot a civilian. Some are not justified, but many are. Cops SAVE more lives than they take, let's be honest. I have often spoken out against unfair police harassment and brutality and have even been witness to it, so I'm not pro-cop, but there are times when a cop has to draw his weapon. Being a cop changes your outlook because you see the worst in people day in, day out, so their reactions when engaged in a shootout, or physical fight might be different than ours, which is much more trusting of our fellow man (ie: he/she won't hurt me). And a cop, depending on the outcome will have to deal with the consequences in most cases.

    I think when you have cop-killers out here and killer-cops, the relationship will never see itself played out judiciously.

    Yes I was speaking in general about the unfair comparison of police brutality to black on black crime. Using myself as an example I usually have my concelled carry pistol when I cross state lines. If a policeman approach me while branishing his weapon I should be able to be comfortable complying and surrendering, considering the fact that I am not committing a crime in the first place. If anyone else approach me with their weapon branished they can't expect me to not pull mine in self defense. This is the favor and respect granted to cops that ordinary citizens don't have. That's what makes police brutality different than any other crime. Police brutality is disgusting regardless of the race of the offender. It seemed like you were comparing the brutality of a policeman murdering a Blackman, to the brutality of a bm (ordinary citizen ) murdering another bm. Do you think they are the same? If so why??

    There are times some Black conservatives are just clueless when it comes to harassment of Black males. A typical White male does not have that kind of drama as compaired to a Black male.

    So should the neonazi-types who bitch about so-called "white genocide", even there's almost a billion whites currently alive on this very planet as we speak.

    My second post in this thread was not 'comparing the brutality of cops who murder BM, to BM murdering BM'. I was speaking in general terms about the previous comment made that 'breaking the law gets you shot now'. Which is why I used myself as the example, as the civilian. I never referred to cops in my second post. So when you replied to me talking about cops, it is why I asked you to clarify your point.
    I also added a general response about my thoughts on cops, out of respect to your reply/comment to me. Hope that clears it up.

    Brilliant post

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Beasty again.

    Race was indeed an issue in this homicide!



    But neither cop had an acrimonious relationship wiht the new boyfriend. They had never met him before as he had just began seeing their daughter. However when he went up to intro himself to the father that was when he gat an upclose look at him and that was when he shot him . . . from a distance he may not have recognized him as being black at all but just a teen with a summer tan.

    There is a definite racial animus to this shooting in my opinion . . . OK is notoriously racist and just as bad as AL to me.
