Hadn't they all been arrested previously for possession of illegal fire arms? OK the cops used excessive force but can we really afford to get into a situation where cops are scared to shoot dangerous criminals for fear of being called racist? Sounds like an open invitation for criminals to take over, but maybe some people would be quite comfortable with that.

So if he was TAVIS SMILEY or HAROLD FORD yeah but he didnt know better not all of us are educated how to be in the public image. Whiter People have image consultants or cousins that will tell them to shut up so it appears they dont coon but as the last Nov 06 election showed there are plenty of WHITER PEOPLE who act a fool in front of the camera. BUT here is the thing the media is not focused in our community UNLESS we tell them like JOE says WE PROMOTE our own mess. I have a blog but i would never expose our faults what i DO try my best to do is CONFRONT our FAULTS and work towards changing the behavior! Thanks for allowing this conversation. LOVE and Peace Brothas. Be Blessed as you are!

Its pretty much a spit in the face of those who put an effort into helping.

"clothes showing off his “Baller Status"? lol as far as i can tell he's wearing a leather jacket i duno what else he's wearing. last time i checked leather jackets aren't that much of a status symbol in this day and age. something about the toen of this post bothers me. maybe its because it gives rise to comments like this Gunfighter Says: Unless I’m mistaken, it has yet to be determined whether or not the officers involved in that shooting were justified… correct? haha all of a sudden the shooters have more credibility than a dude murdered on his wedding day and the witnesses. all of a sudden the internal police inquiry into the justice of the shooting is something we should trust, take as the final word even. ok. maybe its because yall are the ones putting this in the spotlight. how many people went on this dudes myspace page before this article? if this shit gets on jimmy kimmel or something its probably because they saw the link over here, not the original myspace. everyone is so offended that he would misrepresent black people lke this, when youre the ones that are propagating the representation. and yeah i admit i haven't been to the myspace page and dont have time for that shit, but just looking at the picture, it doesnt offend me that much. so he's having some fun after his boy got blown away in front of him, honestly who are you to judge how someone deals with this kind of pain. i dont know the dude, but i'm glad he got some money out the whole thing at least. for real he may be in pain, and you guys are emailing him telling him to stop being a nigger, after his friend loses his life for being black. yeah, sad. as one of you put it. i have a problem with almost all these comments Black folks and their struggle for civil rights just took five steps backward. thats a little dramatic. i mean what are you talking about really? you think this one picture in particular is gonna make a lot of crackers racist out of the blue. especially when no ones seen it probably? this dude isnt creating racism, thats been around for a little while lol. yall feel the need to suggest that racism is based on intellect or logic, and its about time we rejected that notion. this is dumb. “clothes showing off his “Baller Status”? lol as far as i can tell he’s wearing a leather jacket i duno what else he’s wearing. last time i checked leather jackets aren’t that much of a status symbol in this day and age. something about the toen of this post bothers me. maybe its because it gives rise to comments like this
