Just because he’s too stupid to know how to tie a noose doesn’t mean that isn’t exactly what he intended the rope to represent. Anyone with a cursory understanding of the history of lynching in the south knows what he was implying with that rope.

Perhaps there is some sort of system of justice to which he can avail himself to determine his guilt or innocence?

Suicide by cop? You saying he WANTED to die?

After seeing the photo, where the victim was in a clear shooting stance with what looked like a gun pointed at the officer, I’d have to say that if I’d been the officer, I would likely have shot him as well.

No, but if you refuse to follow orders, act like a lunatic and pull something out of your pocket than yeah. Not really the same thing. Not even close.

I know he’s a kid, but it would have been glorious if when they threw him the signed ball it hit him in the other arm. Then they’d sign another ball and hit him somewhere else. Sitcom cut to him in the hospital in a full body cast covered in signatures.

Really disappointed Fat Sam won’t get to stave off relegation with this England team in 2018.

You’re 1/2 right. It does however change the effectiveness of the A/C system which is a major thermal load on the cooling system.

Man City has looked good to date - probably safe to anoint them now, eh Billy?

I can tell I spent too much time on 4chan (two weeks) back in 2010 because I fully expected that last guy to fly in to the World Trade Center.

Was he also past the line of scrimmage when he threw the pass? If he was behind it at all it would be the smallest possible part of his foot.

That’s just wrong. Ejection isn’t enough. Kick him out for the season. Suspend the whole team for a season. Heck, reinstate their death penalty.

So I must take a side? Fine.

Is it all that surprising when you have people trying to engineer race riots to further their own political careers? Trump wants to take stop-and-frisk nationwide.

Lol! Did you even look at those statistics? Over 80% in 2015 were classified as attack in progress. Then scroll through “other”. Literally every single one of them was an armed person threatening a person or the police.

Don’t project your guilt on me. I am wholly supportive of the truths that the BLM movement was founded on, but these protests have gradually degenerated into race riots.

According to other witnesses, he was armed. Also, not sure why the message of “all whites are devils” is being used in this situation, when it was an African American cop who shot an African American man?

But you don’t believe lethal force should be used on unarmed people, so there go their guns (if you believe police officers should be using firearms nonlethally, you know nothing about guns.)

If you think “unarmed” means ‘not a threat’ then you should talk to the 728 people killed by unarmed individuals in 2011 (you know, double the number you are tossing around.)
