Yes I have been hard on you...you are more objective about it all...your use of the flash term "mob" gets me going however.

I do not connect the protests with the event. I am sure they probably got a grand jury going but otherwise I really do not connect them with anything.

I do not Wilson sent away for life....just put on trial if he indeed used excessively deadly force, that is all. I think most police departments generally are above board and when they use deadly force are justified....and usually there are no protests afterward.


I do not want an America where someone is killed by authority and we just take it a face value because the police do not think they have to answer to anyone.

There was the black man in NYC who was killed because he was put in an illegal choke hold after supposedly selling cigarettes. There was homeless man beaten to death by cops here in Orange County. There is the case in Florida where the person allegedly shot himself to death in the chest while having his handcuffed behind is back in a patrol car. Maybe I let this influence my viewing of the Wilson case.
