Yeah yeah... we know. He was an innocent teenager who didn't do anything to warrant the police officer shooting him.

They (the media) have made a martyr out of Brown.

His parents are at fault as much as anyone else. If they hadn't failed in raising him, maybe he wouldn't have met such a fate. I wonder if they have any blame for themselves, doubt it.


Absolutely !!!!

maybe if he had better parenting, this would not have of happened.

I know, I know it's weak to quote yourself but I can't resist saying I TOLD YOU SO!. I've been watching the news for 15 minutes this morning and I've seen CNN reporting on their *dramatic* gassing last night no less than three times. I love how they make themselves the news. It's not just them either it's a disease that pervades the new age media. Marshall McLuhan put it best 50 yrs ago when he said "The medium is the message." It's not news when they're reporting on themselves.

PS -

I couldn't stop howling last night when that p***y Don Lemon started gagging in his gas mask and had to rip it off because he had it on all wrong.

PPS -

Don and Chris Cuomo clearly thought they were Sebastian Junger embedded at OP Restrepo in the Korangal valley in Afghanistan.

BS, he ROBBED the store, and pushed the store owner down. Give me a break and wake up.
He was No kid, I think your post is disgusting.


Yes, I've driven over the speed limit, bit I've never robbed a store. Please, spare me.
The loser kid, LOL, got what he deserved and his parents should be ashamed of them selves for raising such a loser.

I have 3 sons, all law abiding college graduates, I raised good young men, they didn't .....


he was nothing but a low life thug that wasn't going to amount to anything anytime soon.

Ummm, not to interject facts here but it was somewhere closer to 10 feet away per the Grand Jury statements.
But y'all just get back to the riots and have a great time.

You are correct, there was a downward trend of some percent of violent crime statistically. It was mostly fueled by Giuliani's almost unheard of success at stopping black on black violence I'm NY.

If the black on black homicide rate in Chicago today were cut by two thirds to three quarters, we'd also see a drop in the national numbers, because Chicago currently accounts for a large percentage of the black on black homicides nationally.

There was also another trend of electing Republican mayors and governors who were tough on crime, that may also have some correlation, too, but it doesn't account for the HUGE drop in black on black homicides during the Giuliani administration.

A lot of kids shoplift. He made a poor choice. We all make poor choices at times. This is not even related to the cop killing him anyways.

But now everyone who steals something has to die? I think most Americans would be dead. I stole candy when i was 6 yo. Kill me too?

you have got to be kidding me??? poor choice, OMG, yeah, guess it was poor choice.


this was giving us all his character and what type of person he was, and he was nothing to be proud of. you must be living in fantasyland
