This is extremely offensive to "White People"

Obviously I don't know what it's like to be black, but I've been raised around black people...
What is interesting is that my friends tell me that they're embarrassed for most of the community for their actions. I hope someday we can all realize were all imperfect and make MISTAKES.
Most of the community didn't do anything...

Like I said, only the officer was there... When adrenaline kicks in people do amazing thing ya know... I've had a bullet sized piece of shrapnel in my arm with blood squirting out 5 inches each pump of my heart and I just laughed and said to my brother in law I think I need to go to the hospital. I'm no bad as or anything...my adrenaline kicked in and took care of what I had to do.

Not to sound like an ass but a lot of blacks bring it on themselves and other innocent blacks with the way they act. A lot of them don't realize that what they think is cool is destroying them and causing fear in others. Yes the police are wrong for jumping to conclusions but I can see why some are scared. Some are definitely abusing there powers tho for sure. One thing to help curb this violence is realizing acting ghetto is not cool. If you are from the ghetto no problem just don't act ghetto.

That was a crappy read, not much worth the title as it isn't very offensive, heck I don't even see it, though I am black.

The only thing I could see offensive is that they(the blacks) address this.
But every time I see one of these I feel humiliated.

Not because of "white people" but because of the "black" and how they say things in these articles, as if its so black and white.

So the point of the article was to get people to respond to acts of injustice even if their race isn't targeted? If so I agree, although I skimmed the article.

This guy hits on precisely the problem.

Where is the outrage when black gangs commit drive-by after drive-by in Chicago or when children get shot in the streets by stray bullets?

But the moment a police officer -might- have been out of line when he was 'white' and the victim was 'black' - bricks get thrown through windows and buildings get set on fire.

That sets the tone very clearly. People are using black people to gain power. Convincing them to kill, loot, and pillage because of 'injustice.' The NAACP is the equivalent of Hamas and the 'black community' is becoming the equivalent of Palestine.

It will only be a matter of time before they openly begin to try and hold society hostage. When welfare programs are cut, they will orchestrate protests and violence in the streets. Why? Because, obviously, it had to be the white voter who wanted the black person to suffer (despite the fact that if you argue that welfare is damaging the blacks, now - you get told that welfare is not a 'black problem' because there are more whites on welfare... facts kind of shift into and out of relevance when dealing with intellectual warlords).

And if that should happen - what are we to do?

Should we let the disgruntled youths loot our homes and kill our families?

But if we put up armed resistance -oh, the media will declare it a holocaust.

That is why I say we live in exceptionally dangerous times. We are being corralled into a variety of different civil wars by stirring up tensions along political/social lines and then squelching conversation through claims of 'racism,' 'sexism,' 'bigotry,' etc. Stir up dissent and then control the polarization of the conversation.

Well the way I heard it was different I guess... I heard the young man had already assaulted the cop and was reaching for his pistol. I agree, when thinking clearly and perfectly pepper spray or baton would suffice. No one except the cop really knows.. I really do not want to defend the cop because I have found in many situations they're pretty worthless. But what bothers me is how people reacted to it...again, rioting your own neighborhood and killing in the process is a little excessive and unproductive.

To be fair - there are claims of up to nine rounds being fired into the young man, allegedly -after- he began complying with the officer's demands.

It's hard to tell exactly what happened - but the fact that 'more than a couple' shots were fired into this young man is a sign that the officer was not in full control of his actions (or was deliberately stepping out of line - though I generally don't believe an officer to have murderous intent). Which is an indication of poor training.

If I were to walk into your room and start trying to take away your rifle, sword - or any kind of immediately obvious weapon - you'd get pretty worked up pretty quick. Some people freeze, others act on pure instinct without memory (or only fragments of memory). To be able to keep your wits about you and then -not- shoot me if I were to stop in your living room and try to submit to arrest is not easy to do. It can be easy when you're not properly trained to handle those situations to lose hold of yourself.

Which is why the militarization of police we are seeing is a step in the wrong direction. They are being equipped and trained to search&destroy - to breach&clear. That is a military strategy for the purpose of killing as many 'bad' people while losing as few 'good' people as possible. The military mentality, by necessity of the role, assumes hostility and barricades itself.

It's not a good police mentality. Police are there to bring a sense of order to chaotic situations. They are [supposed to be] principled leaders that try to resolve conflicts and see to it that people are not abusing each other.

The military operates along lines of relatively black and white distinctions. They deal with targets to be killed, targets that can be killed if you can get to it, objectives that should be defended, and objectives you should try not to harm. Oh, and there are the guys who are helping you kill the targets.

Military tactics and strategy are not really what police departments should be training their officers for. Special response units for if something really crazy is going down are fine - but it's very rare for there to be a citizen based threat requiring those units that we may as well rely upon the national guard for such cases (because that is kind of what they are there for).
