If this haqd been a white lacrosse player coming from a strip club with his buddies, and the cops were black, you people would be crying for the death penalty for the cops. So this is a problem, we can''t have a prosperous and free country until this kind of racism ends. You aren''t really making yourself bigger by hating balcks, you are diminishing yorself, and what''s worse, you are harming the country your kids have to live in.

We have to compete with the Chinese, the Indians, the Mexicans - and the difference with us is we are all different races. If we don''t stand together, if we don''t benefit from our diversity, we lose. Every racist statement or thought is really an attack on America, on our future, on our children. You might as well say you want the Chinese to win, you want the Indians to win, you want our country to fall into endless bickering and racist inner struggles while these real enemies prospr at our expense.

This is why red states and red necks are the real terrorists, the ones who are crippling us.

I heard about the verdict, and in disbelief, I had to actually READ the verdict!
My heart and prayers go out to the family of this man, including the fiancee.
Is it not possible for an officer to have incapacitated this man, without firing 31 bullets into him?
My son, Joshua, was found dead in Amsler Park/McGregor, Texas on February 16, 2006. McGregor police did NOT investigate, citing, "We don''t begin an investigation until something suspicious is found."
Through careful analysis, research, and discovery, I am 97% certain that McGregor police were involved in his death! www.realcrimes.com/Robinson/Robinson.htm The highlighted areas are excerpts from my files, including a crime scene photo. Warning: Graphic!
If our justice system CAN''T/WON''T get a guilty verdict with 50 bullets, what kind of chance does one think I would have?
Vengence is the Lords!!

50 rounds? That''s unacceptable. Three well-qualified marksmen should have got off at least 100-150 rounds.

Justice is a collective term that can be divided into two broad categories: just behavior, the treatment of others with genuine respect and in an equitable manner, and the administration of law, in which a judge or panel of judges, a magistrate, or a jury enforce legislation, with the objectives of protecting victims and lawfully punishing perpetrators. Criminal justice is the system of practices, and organizations, used by national and local governments, directed at maintaining social control, deter and controlling crime, and sanctioning those who violate laws with criminal penalties. The primary agencies charged with these responsibilities are law enforcement (police and prosecutors), courts, defense attorneys and local jails and prisons which administer the procedures for arrest, charging, adjudication and punishment of those found guilty. When processing the accused through the criminal justice system, government must keep within the framework of laws that protect individual rights. The pursuit of criminal justice is, like all forms of "justice," "fairness" or "process," essentially the pursuit of an ideal. Throughout history, criminal justice has taken on many different forms which often reflect the cultural mores of society. AND they are not pigs they are officers of the LAW.
JUSTICE IS DONE!

New York, Save your money. Buy more bullets. Do not pay the extortionist.

As government agents, police are rarely held accountable for their actions. After all, they ARE the law.

If it were private citizens that shot this unarmed man 50 times and killed him, you better belive they would be looking at life sentences.

There are separate rules in society - one for the rulers, and one for the subjects.
