Bray Wyatt Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 So just tell every black guy to get on the ground? That is his perspective and how he views it. We do not know the other side of the matter, my guess is there was a description of the suspect.
fridge Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 I am OK with his complaint, but he ruins it by comparing himself to actual criminals who were killed while breaking the law. Please note I am NOT saying all the people he mentioned by name were criminals, at least some were not. My point is he does himself no favors by naming others in that way. He can't name famous instances of recent cases in which the police used excessive force that resulted in death? Why is that?
Bray Wyatt Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Apparently. Do you know if the report was that the gunman was black, or are you just pumping out misinformed speculation? Well pumping out information that he was told to do so just because he was black is all speculation as well. The truth is we do not know at this point, but hey lets jump to conclusions to suit a narrative
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Pretty sure he's whining about his rights being violated. This thread should be locked immediately because your post belongs somewhere far, far away from 2017. you surprised?
scribo Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 He can't name famous instances of recent cases in which the police used excessive force that resulted in death? Why is that? Not all the cases he referred to are clearly acts of excessive force. Why cloud his situation by bringing in other incidents. Some of those people he brought up were actually breaking the law. If Bennett's case is strong enough to stand on its own, then he should let it.
HappyDays Posted September 6, 2017 Author Posted September 6, 2017 I'm sure the truth of what happened will be somewhere in the middle as always. I doubt it went down exactly as he claims. Ironic that this fits his cause so well and we are just hearing about it now. If it really happened like that then the cops should be punished but I'm skeptical Definitely a lot more facts need to come out and the police will give their side of the story. Even if just some of it is true it is a clear civil rights violation. But who knows.
Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Well that is perfect timing for his cause, absolutely perfect. Where are all the cell phone videos of this? How come we haven't heard about this til now? I wouldn't have stuck around to record if I was there and shots rang out.

The truth is we do not know at this point, but hey lets jump to conclusions to suit a narrative Why do you automatically assume "there was a description of the [black] suspect"?
dwight in philly Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Definitely a lot more facts need to come out and the police will give their side of the story. Even if just some of it is true it is a clear civil rights violation. But who knows. i agree.. gotta be more to the story..
Bray Wyatt Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Why do you automatically assume "there was a description of the [black] suspect"? I don't assume they did, I said I would guess they did. Odds are he wasn't the only black guy in the crowd, but more to my point of is we do not know yet and to let things come out first. My experience is police don't just detain and handcuff people at gun point based soley on their color. Others may have other experiences, hence why I said it is my guess. I am willing to let both people state their cases before drawing any conclusions.
BringBackOrton Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) Suing for what? Sounds a lot like "he said she said." Why did he cite Trayvon Martin? A person who had no contact with any police officers the night he was shot? Bennet is just smart enough to be really, really stupid. Sherman-esque. Edited September 6, 2017 by jmc12290
RoyBatty is alive Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Apparently. Do you know if the report was that the gunman was black, or are you just pumping out misinformed speculation? Mannc, you owe Herc11 an apology. He/she wrote "Perhaps" and "If". Herc11 was not "just pumping out misinformed speculation".

26CornerBlitz Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Kaepernick weighs in. @Kaepernick7 This violation that happened against my Brother Michael Bennett is disgusting and unjust. I stand with Michael and I stand with the people.
mannc Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Do you know what perhaps means?As I read it, "perhaps" referred to the reason Bennett was detained and you were stating as a fact that the suspect was black. At any rate, you were apparently making an assumption unwarranted by the known facts.
Herc11 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Were the cops detaining every black person or was he the only one? Im sure he wasnt the only black person in the crowd. Maybe they were targeting large people and since he is large they got him. Uh oh, they must be sizest.
RoyBatty is alive Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 I think you need to re-read his post. I think you need a course in reading comprehension and/ior be intellectually honest that you made a mistake.
