Ferguson Idiots OMFG

Okay let's just loot peoples shit and burn down buildings and act like a bunch of fucking dumb dipshit motherfuckers and reinforce every stereotype fucking ever. MLK would be proud as fuck. Great peaceful protests you stupid [white, black, Asian, native American, Mexican, European, Australian] fucks. Oh no! Tear gas! Jesus fucking Christ I wonder why?

"Is this it? Is this what I took all of those ass-whoopins for?" -MLK

Alright so this dude who got shot jumped a cop, and if he got shot during that struggle, then it sucks and I'm sorry for his family but he got what he got. If the cop fought him off and then shot him for no fucking reason once there was some reasonable distance between the two, then that was fucked up and shouldn't have happened.

Another possibility is that he fought the man off with some distance between them, and then the man came at him again and got shot. In that situation it probably comes down to the specific language of the law in Missouri which I'm not familiar with, though I do know that they have been working on making changes to laws on self-defense in that state earlier this year.

Now everybody's on this bullshit saying that there's something wrong with the fact that the vast majority of the 50-55 cops in the area were white while about 2/3 of the population of the area was black. Two things: First, the population has only become mostly black in relatively recent years, so there hasn't likely been time for the makeup of the local government and civil servants to catch up in terms of people who live there getting into those positions. Second, how do they know enough black people even fucking applied to be cops to give it any kind of balance?

Hey I've got a bright fucking idea. How about everybody of every fucking race stop goddamn jumping people? If a cop thinks you might have just robbed some people because he was responding to a call about some people who just got fucking robbed in the area, and he's stopping to see if you know anything, then the last thing you need to do is jump on his ass. Know what kind of message that sends? OH SHIT I'M CAUGHT, I BETTER ACT LIKE A FUCKING IDIOT AND HOPE I DON'T GET SHOT.

And guess what? HE WAS CAUGHT. THEY HAVE HIS ASS ON TAPE 15 MINUTES EARLIER STEALING A BOX OF SWISHER SWEETS (jesus christ) AND ATTACKING A STORE CLERK WHO CONFRONTED HIS BIG ASS.



And you know what, even with that, there are plenty of scenarios where the cop shouldn't have just shot this fucking guy, so don't get it fucking twisted. But there are also plenty of scenarios where it was justified INCLUDING THIS BIG MOTHERFUCKER JUMPING A GODDAMN OUTNUMBERED COP AND TRYING TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF HIM. We don't know all of what happened just yet, so we can't really make a decision.

But what we do know is that dumb motherfuckers getting pissed off and burning buildings down and throwing fucking molotov cocktails at cops aren't helping the goddamn situation. When they calmed that shit the fuck down, the cops stopped whooping peoples asses. There is a fucking pattern here.

Fucking idiots.
