The cops wouldn't have been called on him if he wasn't breaking the law. He wasn't innocent. I feel like all the protesting going on is glorifying someone who acted like a thug.

I'll say the same no matter the person's race, so don't throw the race card at me. I'm not white anyway.

The protests are making black people look bad. Yeah it is sad someone died but the protesters make me roll my eyes. I might see more justification in it if Mike got shot while walking down the street doing nothing but he was resisting arrest.

Come ON.

+1

oh my GOD this has been established over and over: The cop who shot him was not responding to the store incident. He wasn't called.

"I might see more justification in it if Mike got shot while walking down the street doing nothing"

you might?

Oh please, don't get pedantic. I was using the same speech I'd use if I said "you might get wet if you go out there" when it's raining.

the thing is though, i doubt you would. i think that "might" holds more truth to your feelings than you care to admit. the facts have all been laid out and still you people insist mike brown was a thug just asking for it. no evidence is good enough. see: eric garner. the man was living his life and was choked to death in public. might you see justification for the anger then? or do you just not give a shit, like you do here.

People do not deserve to be killed for robbing stores

Fuck you, this is a terrible argument

He shouldn't have been robbing a store.

I agree.

He shouldn't have been killed for it either. And it's absolutely appropriate to protest against that.

petty crimes do not under any western law in any american state or jurisdiction allow a police officer to use excessive force. what happened to mike brown was illegal and unjust. that is a statement of fact.

Summary execution for suspicion of shoplifting is a thing now, is it?

If you think that's an actual justification for killing someone your thinking is way fucked up.

This here.

What, we don't have the death penalty for shoplifting yet? Jesus, what's wrong with us people?

I get that this is effective rhetoric but just for my own sanity, you do understand, seperate from all the specifics of the case, that the suggestion by supporters is never 'he was killed due to the robbery and that's okay', it's 'he was killed because he tried to attack a cop and go for their gun - to which they defended themselves against deadly force'.

I mean there's plenty of criticisms you could make, so follow the ones which aren't twitter style zingers.

no the robbery is relevant, because people DO say that the robbery rendered mike brown a thug and therefore he deserved to die. even when you have the storekeeper insisting that mike brown did not rob his store.

AYRT

Like

my post was literally in response to someone saying that people shouldn't protest Brown's death because he was robbing a store

so I would suggest that there's evidence that at least some supporters are saying "he was killed due to the robbery and that's okay" in the sense that this is literally what the fucking post I was responding to was fucking saying you fucking ass

I thought he was shot because he charged at the officer? Seems pretty dumb to me.

There are plenty of things people don't deserve, but sometimes poor decisions have horrible consequences and Brown made several poor decisions in a row. His behavior was a big factor in how this situation turned out.

I am so glad Tumblr's three day attention span finally ran out for this crap and it's moved onto the next 'MUH OPRESHUN' flavor of the week.

We must be browsing very different tumblrs.

And that's just fine with me. I'm glad the tumblr I'm on has finally stopped being hypocritical when telling other people not to forget.

Whatever, punk.

The tumblrs I read have been going on and on about this issue in general because police are still killing civilians and still not being indicted.

resisting arrest in and of itself does not warrant SHOOTING SOMEONE

like holy shit how are we even having this argument

seriously

like, apparently the standard that some people use is that once cops get involved, you can't blame them whatever goes down

cops are just a force of nature apparently, like earthquakes, or tornadoes

...He attacked an armed man.
