someone wasnt there...
You are now not making any legit argument here, of course I wasn't there, neither were you! By saying "you were not there" to degrade my argument, couldn't I ALSO say "you weren't there" and say YOUR argument is no longer deemed worthy? Well yes, I could. But I'm not liberal.

I'm going to have to ask you to make real posts acknowledging my real points, instead of ignoring those very reasonable arguments/points, and then making your own claims and attempting to take credibility from my arguments using Ad-Hominem.

This doesn't need to be a big argument. Some people in life are racist, but it's more rare than people think. There have been cases where white cops kill black civilians, and one or two of them may have had something to do with race, but it just tends to be regular cases blown up by our lovely friends in the media department.

By saying you are "saying random stuff for you to reply" only admits you are flaming/trolling this thread with no intent of actual argument.

Ceroria please give Hoodie a warning to stop replying to the thread.

He doesn't have to stop necessarily, as long as it doesn't cause any more flame :)

Rule 8 states:
  • The difference between an argument and a discussion is that a discussion has valid points provided by each sides debating. An argument is a pointless disagreement where sides repeatedly claim the opposing side is wrong without any explanation or validation.
Hoodie repeatedly claimed my side is wrong without any explanation.

Okay, let's talk Michael Brown. A 300+ pound angry teenager carrying drugs rushes you, a scrawny police officer. You have a gun in your hand and about three seconds before you get flattened, and likely hospitalized for days given the strength of this young man. You shoot to protect yourself. Would you have rather tazed him? Yes, but you didn't have time to do so before your own life was at stake.

Brown knew the cop had a gun in his hand. It was his decision to attack the cop, and knowing full well the cop would react. This didn't seem like the kind of person who would stop attacking, so if he tried to dodge, the young man would have come back at him.

It had little to do with race, more with self defense. Michael Brown's death was a tragedy, and it may have been a little wrong, but it was nothing to do with race.
The evidence is a little bit more detailed than this as well as somewhat circumstantial, and there is a reason it sat in court for 3+ months. Anyway, "race" does not exist, it is a term created by humans.
