The people that saw the shooting were not his friends except Johnson. The others didnt even know him. You can agree to disagree but that doesnt make you less wrong. The DOJ decision not to bring charges is a problem with a lack of evidence sufficient enough to win a case. Happens all the time and people walk even though they did commit the crime.The Brown case is one in which it spread by lies being started by his friend and many media outlets ran with. You and I need to agree to disagree on that case, if you believe the DOJ decision not to bring charges against the officer, is false.
Now, with this case was there a protest already planned or did the bad reporting and bad social media cause it to spontaneously errupt?
No one reported all of the facts when this first happened. What are you talking about? The fact that there were witnesses that saw most if not all of the incident said Brown had his hands up was the fact that got people galvanized.The media reporting none of the facts in their first reporting, I would suspect, yes, they had alot to do with it. Or do you have information the protests were to occurr without this unfortunate event? Even a Congresswoman reported on twitter she saw the whole thing happen from a gas station, which, of course she didn't. I guess we could include social media also being a possible factor. That is, unless, you can show me where this was already planned?So your argument is that because the media was there to cover it they caused it?And you absolutely fail. Did you see where I stated all races, gender, etc?
You stated the media there had nothing to do with this event and the protests that therein after broke out; since media had nothing to do with it, even though they were all over it, in the trucks, photographers, reporters, etc.? It just happened to coincide with it?
On to something else? Maybe you are suffering from selective reading.
And twisting the words I used into your own interpretation of what they meant makes me suspect that is your own thoughts.
I said blacks dont take cues from the media on what to and what not to protest. Now you're on to something else
Yeah, right here when you said that the media "doesnt make blacks understand" something. As if blacks just lack understanding...or this group of blacks lack understanding.
Sure...its the job of the media and since we have 24 hour news they move forward with anything. I see that you believe the media runs stories for the sole reason of hyping up the blacks that you are not lumping into a group and stuff
