So a cop should shoot a criminal assaulting him only AFTER he has suffered life-threatening injuries in the shuffle?

Are you serious?

Gotcha. I was left speechless when one looter posed for the media with a 1-liter soda as loot. How dumb can you be?!

That's a textbook mindless, soulless mob in action.

Agreed.

Why is looting, riots, civil unrest always done by the left?

Cops are there to enforce the law, not wrestle with every wanabee punk who breaks it.

I was always taught -- you mess with the police, you better have your cemetery plot picked out.

If police tells you to stop, you stop immediately. If police tells you to put your hands up or they'll blow your brains off -- you better not call that a bluff.

I can't believe that we are even discussing the ABC of how to obey a police officer.

I wish there was a way to bunch up all liberals, put them in a city together with wife and kids, let them run their police their way. For good measure, let's put liberals' allies there too -- convicted felons, criminals, illegal aliens, welfare queens, and other non-productive able bodied adults.

Let them live their utopia in there. But I am sure, liberals will try to escape that hell and filth, try to go somewhere nice, and try to fundamentally transform that new place to become like the place they escaped from. Sounds familiar?

I like Charles but I'm not surprised. You have to understand something, most black athletes(especially superstars like Charles) are put on a pedestal by white people from a very early age because of their talent/potential.

All the white girls want to date them, all the white guys wanna be their friend, older white guys want to coach them/get them to go to their school etc. To put it simply, they're not really exposed to the same everyday racism that the average black person has to go through. So to expect these people to be understanding of certain issues on race is foolish.

"I don't get it man, all the cops I know are friendly and want to take pictures with me."

My favorite was the guy with armful of Orange Soda worth maybe 3$. May have been the same guy.
Bet he can back the next night for a armful of Cheetos.

Um....where do you get the idea that ANYONE can assault a police officer, and NOT get shot. I mean...WTF? Do you live on a different planet or something? You DON'T F&CK WITH A POLICE OFFICER. Period. They don't carry guns for show.
