Here's how I think it went down. Mike hit the bong hard and then decided to go down to the zippy mart. While there his intimidating size and his stoned state allowed him to help himself to some things that weren't his. As he was leaving he had an opportunity to bully the store owner which he did with impunity. His bud was with him. As they are walking through the community mike is feeling pretty full of himself, ten feet tall and bulletproof. While in the middle of the street an officer comes up and says something mike doesn't like or something mike takes issue with. The officer doesn't care for the way mike responds to his direction and keeps shouting orders at him. Mike does the usual f u m f, grabs the cop,through the window and proceeds to put a major ass whipping on the officer who is much smaller. Mike then proceeds to walk off and the officer feebly tells him to stop. mike turns around and says haven't you had enough and proceeds to charge the officer who is scared so shitless that he empties his magazine Into the kid.
This is a tragedy. One man is dead and the other for all intent and purposes is the walking dead.
But here are the things that bother me enough to make a post about it
If the tv cameras weren't there neither would the demonstrators.
Every man or woman's life has a value and no ones existence is any more valuable than another's, so if one death is bad two are worse and so on. To elevate one persons death in Missouri above the death of seven people in Chicago is not really giving the same share of humanity to each person. That is wrong.
Using the death of a black boy to once again falsely raise the ugly head of racism which is then used as the basic cause of all the problems of the black community is a shameless political scam. The Obama administration is not totally, but is mainly responsible for the condition of the black community today, they have done nothing to better the condition of the poor blacks. To channel the frustration, disappointment, and rage of this neglected community into the racism pipeline is a despicable act, but keeps being repeated over and over again.
One thing the press and the administration and our culture today fails to do is prioritize. While mike browns death is tragic, is it as important as the rise of Isis, the genocide happening in Chicago, the border problem,and on and on. If Americans and the media don't spend more time pondering the big nation threatening issues we will all be watching reality shows of public American be headings at the hands of Islamic barbarians. We are over the hump on racism, deal with it rev sharpton.
Lastly, I cannot hold back my disgust with AG Holder. This man is a disgrace to the office. He does not believe in the rule of law or in blind justice. He views his job description as getting revenge on white people for the past persecution of his race and protecting his boss at any cost, even if it means violating the laws of this country. Holder goes to Missouri and says I'm the attorney general and I am black. What the hell does that have to do with justice. Fifty FBI agents to work on this case? Please! Increased investigations on civil rights violations, let me tell you, if any govt agency wants to find something wrong, just like a health inspector, they will. This man has zero integrity for impartially and faithfully upholding ALL the laws of this country for ALL the people. We basically have an activist political hack as the top law enforcement officer of the land.
Everyone has had a chance to air their opinion, it is time to move on.
