The Shooting Gallery: Police Violence MEGATHREAD

He trafficks in the truth.

But he doesn't.

Sure he does.  Just because, as a cracker, it's truth you don't want to hear doesn't disqualify it.

I'm not and I recognize that he doesn't. My receptionist and I were just talking about all he'll do is add more hot air to the situation.

The 2014 version Al Sharpton is a much more subtle influence than the track suited shuckster goofball from the 1980s.  Of course, back in the 1980s, you had to be louder to be heard from Whitey.

Funny, but I bet none of you Sharpton-haters actually watched his public statement today.  There was nothing inflammatory or baiting about it.

I listened to a little on the radio.  That's where I heard the bit about cops supposedly letting Ferguson burn.

I think there are better ways to waste my time.

That was a reporter that said that, you know.  Not one of those damned dirty negroes.

Like wasting your receptionist's time instead?

Now it may have been a somewhat baiting question, but the supposedly aggrieved parties all agreed emphatically.

Small talk promotes cohesiveness.

I listened to the Press Conference of the Prosecutor while driving last night.  The first thing that struck me was how poorly timed the announcement was.  Why couldnt he have waited until the next morning?  The next thing that struck me was that he went out of his way to build a case against the person who was shot.  I am not sure why he felt the need to do that.  The issue before the Grand Jury was presumably to consider whether there was sufficient evidence against the police officer to proceed with a criminal trial.  It struck me that if someone wanted to inflame the situation that press conference was a good way of doing it.

Your posts need more fabric softener.

Now, now, now...it's only the "supposedly aggrieved" parties that are at fault here, CC.  There will be no blaming Whitey today.

Hey Yi - I was just looking at your sig line:

2. Before bets $50 even money that Israel strikes Iran before 11/24/2014.

I think someone owes you $50.

Somebody takes their arbitration duties very seriously. 

Way ahead of you counselor.
