NRA LIFE MEMBER GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS ESPECIALLY THE SNIPERS! "Suppose you were an idiot And suppose you were a member of Congress... But I repeat myself." -Mark Twain
Tell me, then, why is there a pphukking DEMOCRATIC voter registration booth set up on the same street and yards away from where Brown got shot?
Naw, there ain't nothin' funny goin' on and dat cop gonna get a real fair trial...
Everyone said that about Zimmerman, yet they managed to get that one right. The same kind of stuff happened with the media, and the system worked. All the same people here ranted and raved that Zimmerman wouldn't get a fair trail ad-nauseum; but he did and they got the verdict right.
All I'm saying is; I'm not going to rush to judgment. I'll wait until all the facts are in, and then decide for myself. There may be something to get worked up over (other than the riots, and that does pizz me off), but I'll wait until I see something a bit more concrete than something put out by a left wing media.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.
Kevin, the system failed Zimmerman. He never should have been charged. That politically driven prosecution ruined his life.
By the way, I heard on the news that the nation's highest law enforcement official Eric Holder will be visiting the suspected drug using, store robbing, police assaulting thug's family tomorrow. Wonder if he will visit the officer severely injured in the line of duty?
Either the shooting was justified, or it wasn't; it's just as simple as that. All the hubub didn't change the Rodney King verdict, it didn't change the OJ verdict, it didn't change the Zimmerman verdict...in every case, the EVIDENCE prevailed.
You sure you want to include OJ in that statement?

And if tomorrow or next week they find that this cop committed murder; are you still good with kicking in for his defense?
Yes. Absolutely. Why? Because in order for this cop to get anywhere close to a fair shake, he needs the support for an adequate defense. This is even more so the case when it clearly seems that the MO State police, DOJ, and MS are squarely against him. Then again, perhaps this is just a silly white boy flying off the handle about "adequate counsel", a "fair and impartial jury", and due process".
Obviously your mileage varies and only matters when the result and outcome are already known.
Again, how is the view from that pphukking high horse?

I just checked and it is up to about 41,000. it is pacing about $3,000 an hour.

The "OJ verdict" Really, Gungeek. You are out of touch with reality.-Mike
The court system worked in the OJ case...Law Enforcement is what failed. So yes, the EVIDENCE did prevail (or in that particular the lack of, or presence of very bad evidence).
I have hard time saying the court system worked in the OJ case. What I do know is that we have a 6 year cop that has never been written up, a dead offender that was not shot in the back as the liars say, and the cop has a broken orbital socket. I think the cop needs a little support. If you don't, that's on you.
Sounds like the cop is getting a lot of support. All I'm saying is, I'll wait until ALL of the evidence is in before I say one side or the other is right or wrong.
I can envision all sorts of scenarios where it could go one way or another. But my opinion doesn't mean squat. There will be a preliminary investigation. Based on that information the cop will either be indicted or he won't. If he is, there will be a more complete investigation and he'll have his day in court.
I think when an unarmed man is shot, there seriously needs to be an investigation; I think that's appropriate. Let the investigation go and let the cards fall where they fall. The evidence will prevail.
Your opinion may not mean squat, but for some of us, its the trash that got shot thats getting funds to sue etc... and the officer has not even close to a fair shake on that.
For that I"m willing to toss some money to the underdog so to speak, to help him show his side and THEN let it fall where it may.
Without funds, he may never have the ability to do the best he can to defend himself. You can bet your azz, the other side will have plenty of drug money etc... tossed out there to try to hang the guy.
So in the meantime, let the system work, and lets hope its better than the OJ case that was a joke, and those that believe that you should not be guilty before innocent, toss the officer, regardless of race, some help. Lord knows that LEO pay won't be nearly enough to cover expenses.
As to the unarmed man, well you don't have any of the evidence so how do you even know thats true? And if true, where did he loose the arms that he may have beaten the officer with?
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
