Well said!
This whole thing is such a tragedy!
Violence does not solve problems. You have to have a peaceful and mindful approach to solve problems. I do not think you have enough information and facts to convict and point fingers. There is no proof that parts of the information given are true.
It is tragic and people’s reactions are contributing to further tragedy. History shows us that peaceful protesting works and violence does not. People who truly want justice don’t behave in a manner that hurts others or causes more misery.
I don’t think the officer should have shot Michael right away. The officer could have given Michael a chance to stop and relax. The saddest part about this whole thing is that Michael wasn’t even getting punished for the stolen cigars. So if #4 “Deadly Force” is correct I totally agree with Joe’s perspective.
i don’t think starting a riot was the right thing to do because now instead of only Bown losing his life now so is a lot of other people. Before people get involved they should know exactly what happened or just not got involved. i think Brown losing his life was enough why take others when you could be trying to help figure out his and help his family. Yes i do think the cop should get prison time but what if what the cop did will help protect others what is there was something wrong that set him off if that what really happened? there are lots of questions people don’t know yet.
They should of did this peacefully and not violent and then maybe they could of made a better change. In the first place they should of just bought a pack instead of taking it. But the officer should not of shot him in the first place.
I think that they should of went by it in a better way instead of what they did. Brown lost his life that was tragic but the rioting was not necessary. I just hope that they get the facts right and solve the case.
Thanks for the comments! I do think it would be difficult to make a decision in a split second decision. However, I am standing by my thoughts that the officer had the ability to shoot Michael in the leg(s) and render him as a non-threat. Still, we should wait to see/hear all the facts!
Is shooting someone over stolen cigars really a resonable punishment? I honestly think this is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. You tell them to stop running and if they dont, you chase them. You dont take there life away from you. In my oppinion, the police officer that shot the man, probably had intentions on killing him before he even got there, just because they have a badge they somehow think they can break the rules. Thats all. R.i.p broo
This Mike Brown shooting is very sad to hear about, but we have to understand how often pointless shootings happen. Not only that, there are thousands of teenagers dying from some cause everyday.. and nobody acknowledges it. It is also partially our fault for being enslaved to government authority and letting cops harass our people every single day of our being!!!!
Justice in this case would have to be for that ”person” to be in prison for life, yes I believe I have enough information to make this determination. I think protests are important and they do get reactions and in some cases that is very important. Protesting is this particular case is really important because people dont believe a man of the law would do what he did. Many just look at what the victim did in the past to justify the officers actions and thats not right. People are usually forced to do things they dont want and we should not judge them for that. The officers reactions to a protest should be nothing really because it is our right. Untill someone is threatend or something then they should maybe do something because these people protesting are feeling like the law does not care about them that the officers could do what they did to someone else. That they wont be punished and these people just want a little bit of justice and comfort in the fact there will be justice of some sort, they just want that to happen. for officers to pull out the same wepon that killed there loved one , I think that would make anyone angrier and more scared of injustice in there community. I only believe in one way this could be resolved and that is if this ”person” who killed a young man for no GOOD Justifyable reason would be for him to go to prison for the rest of his life or die.
1. Justice is obviously very wrong in many different ways. Cases like these happen all the time. I think that the cop should at least be fired from his job and sued for shooting an unarmed man.
2. I agree with the protests 100%, but they should take a step further and start putting fear into Ferguson Police Station. Make them know that this will not be tolerated and they will suffer the consequences.
3. I suggest that the cop should receive the death penalty, and let Karma direct his path
I dis like the fact that Michale Brown was shot over robing a store the police officer could have shot him with a tazer not a pistol!
