[quote=flu]I’m sorry I hijacked this thread and talked about schools. When we should be talking about how effective the looters are looting Ferguson…
Anyone else notice that right when the riots started, that people were saying that the police using tear gas/riot gear/etc was being too aggressive..Then after a brief lull of calm, the rioters/looters returned and the police temporarily just stood by and did nothing…
You think that was deliberate?[/quote]
Of course it’s deliberate. They’ve giving them what they asked for. What else should people expect.
And the cop didn’t shoot some innocent kid who was just walking down the street. That “kid” was 6’4″ and 290+ pounds, had just robbed a store, then disobeyed a police officer’s request to get out of the middle of the street (and I get the grey area there), then slammed the car door on the cop when he was trying to exit the patrol car, and got into a physical altercation with the cop where he (supposedly) was trying to wrestle the gun away from the cop.
And cops don’t know if a person is unarmed. The best way to prove it is to listen to the cops and settle any disputes at the police station. Sue the hell out of them afterward if they violated your rights, etc. But do NOT get into a heated, physical fight with a cop.
