Who What Now posted:This really cannot be said enough. Any public employee that carries a weapon of any kind (gun, taser, even just pepper spray) should have a camera at all times while they have the weapon on them. It's such a no-brainer thing. go read the last couple pages of the GiP ask cops thread if you want to see the sort of arguments police make against such measures.

The Ferguson Riots Are Not a Shift Away From Peace, They're a Challenge to ViolenceVice News posted:We can continue to watch Al Sharpton speechify in front of weeping families, we could walk in somber marches, holding signs, we can wait for the next unarmed black kid to die by police bullet. We can fake the peace, but we should not be so blind to think that the "war zone" of police violence stops at the patrolled edges of Ferguson. I repeat here the words of late philosopher Bernard Williams, who noted that “to say peace when there is no peace is to say nothing.” In Ferguson, with broken glass and fire, something is being said.

My Imaginary GF posted:There's a lot of anger in the area. The police are to blame for escalating the situation, however, the Ferg PD lives in the area. Those coppers' greatest fear is that the black residents won't see them as powerful enough to resist. What does this mean in response to what I said? That guy wasn't even the first whitey to get stomped, Duckberg got punched in the face too, and he almost got beat on last night not to mention the reporter who got the boot a few nights ago.

Police officers don't want body cameras because they are afraid of getting into trouble by petty superiors for casual racism. e: That is what they tell you if you ask about it in GiP anyway. Miltank fucked around with this message at 14:54 on Nov 27, 2014 |

It seems way more likely that Brown robbed the place than some sort of weird confrontation where a store owner refuses to Brown the display box of cigarillos and then physically attacks brown to prevent him from leaving. e: the clerk didn't call the cops because he didn't want any trouble which is pretty lol considering what happened to his store regardless.

Sunset posted:If he was robbing the store, why would they even put any of the stuff they were getting back? Who robs a store, only takes some, and even ends up putting some of the stuff back down on the counter before walking (not running) out? It sure would be nice if we could have some information from the shop owner as to what exactly happened, but I guess we'll just have to do with a parade of folks who come around to chime in that obviously Mike Brown is a violent thug - just look at how his hulking frame pushes the shopkeeper twenty feet back. Those folks never seem to really care too much over the little details that are constantly brought before them, such as the incident not being called in as a robbery by the owner. Maybe it has to do with the ongoing Federal investigation - but is there any good reason as to why we're not hearing from the guy behind the counter as to what happened? I'm not picking on Miltank specifically or anything, I would just think at the very least it would have been called in if it was what certain folks seem so quick to jump on. Not that it should matter - I must have missed the memo about a petty theft deserving execution by LEO's. The owner was probably really hoping to avoid any trouble. Before the media attention he could have called in the incident but it probably wouldn't have amounted to anything considering how petty the theft was. He might also be mistrustful of police. After the media attention he was probably hoping to fly under the rdar to avoid having his store looted just for being involved. Obviously nothing Brown could have done in the store is a justification for the shooting and it is ESPECIALLY not a justification for the DA's failure to indict which is completely unacceptable.

My Lil Parachute posted:That's not my point - I'm not defending Wilson. It just seems weird to me that a baby can get horrifically injured by a flashbang and no-one cares, people get shot in no-knock raids where the cops get the address wrong and no-one cares, but get shot after robbing a store and picking a fight with a cop? Outrage. people care because this act of police violence sparked some actual protests. that is literally the only reason.
