I'm fucking sick of these cops getting away with murder. I'm not even black, so I wouldn't understand what it's like to be discriminated against, but holy shit its gotta be fucking scary to know that cops can just fucking kill you on sight with out any consequences. Fuck this, man... Will it ever stop?
 
I truly fear that this will become a thing amongst cops in America.

This has been happening for decades. I'm not sure if we have like an actual statistic uptick of these incidents in the last 5 years. But it's likely that we had just as many of these incidents before, they just weren't reported as often as they are now. People have been suffering a long time under the abuse of the law.
 
:(

So, you guys got a black president, he shouldn't be doing something about all this? He at least acknowledges it?

He tried to obliterate racism but then ISIS happened so you know

Come on man... did I need the /s tag on that?

Yeah....Obama is a politician, and has been on the defense from racist fear mongering since his first term. He has been pretty careful to not address issues of racism because of this.

Sigh, need to just log off NeoGAF. Having one of those days.
 
Need to have someone killed? Just become a cop for a week and kill them. You'll only get a small mark against you and sometimes you even get a vacation, paid!
 
Why cant we fix any of this shit in this fucking country?!

someone needs to set up some system for the decision makers so that they cant be swayed by money.

maybe bottlecaps.
 
Maybe Obama should comment on general excessive force by police then.

Even if the old man tried to grab your gun and then clearly failed (since you're now pointing the gun at him) why the need to shoot at this point?

Real talk? Don't call the cops on minorities over stupid shit like music too loud or other minor grievances. We die for lesser offenses all the fucking time. I think it obvious now that we have a lot of external societal stressors, so cut us a break. Even if you think we don't deserve it, cause chances are we do.

Did you see the Washington Racists ad?

This country is built on "Hey look at that problem over there and ignore this huge issue!" and it constantly works for some reason.

how in the world does someone grab a gun through a door? that claim makes no sense

dehumanizing stare also makes you Magneto

Another undocumented skill of the negro. We can assume the ephemeral form of our ancestors.

So all in all we have

Twitch fiber muscles
Weed Vapors that enhance our abilities to unimaginable levels
Dehumanizing stare
Aggressive step
Ephermeral form

I didn't die.
 
cops are going to be skittish on any perceived threat no matter how small it may seem in hindsight. shit like this will continue until we develop a way to incapacitate a human without causing harm
 
They didn't want to set a legal precedent guys. Imagine the number of cops who would be on trial if they were no longer above the law and were tried and treated for crimes like everyone else. These guys put their lives on the line everyday, and doing something like that isn't fair to them. Here is a link to a youtube video of an incident that happened in 1998 that totes justify the current 'shoot on sight' mentality that some cops display. These officers have families to get home to so at the end of the day its going to be you or them. Besides we don't even know if that old man had a weapon in the passenger seat that caused the officer to shoot because he feared for his life. I mean not to victim blame but if he simply pulled over when the cop asked him to this wouldn't have happened. Doubly so after that one post in which a police officer explained how they can fuck if your day if you don't give them the proper respect. He should have just pulled over and let the officer do his job, again not justifying or victim blaming, I'm just stating the obvious and easiest route to not getting shot. I'm just trying to make sense of why he killed this guy it just seems random and makes no sense. I mean if he went for his gun then yea...

Not to make this to be a long winded post or to say that you know these things don't happen, if you look at the statistics, you'll see that old black men who ignore warnings to pull over who live in North Augusta SC rarely happen so...this is like an isolated incident. Again not justifying the shooting or victim blaming but why did he ignore the cop? The officer said he went for his gun, you think an officer would lie? I'm just trying to get an understanding of how this could have happened and not jump to any conclusions.

You heard it here first, we need stun rays to keep cops from killing unarmed retirees for no reason. It's the only way.
 
The problems with the justice system are bad but not so much that we can't rely on the police to do their job now and again. But please continue telling people not to call the police when they want them to mediate a problem.

People that know you can't deal with police know. People with the luxury of not having to know, don't know.
 
What is with all of this shit recently? I don't remember these kinds of things happening so frequently in the past. Was I just less aware or has there been some imperceptible change in America in the past few years?
