[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree. The title and of the thread the OP's original post indicate that this a thread about the city of Charlotte and the recent unrest surrounding an officer involved shooting which means that the attitudes of citizens about the police as well as cumulative instances of officer involved shootings are not only warranted but very relevant to the discussion. People aren't up in arms because of crime they're up in arms because from their experience and observations [b]police are using the excuse of crime to justify unnecessary use of force and even murder.[/b] If you don't want to welcome insights about both sides of the story then you're not adding anything to the discussion but deflection.[/quote] so was the charlotte incident an unnecessary use or force and even murder? do we know yet? or did they begin protesting (and some rioting) about police misconduct before we knew whether or not it was? protesters were seen with signs that said "IT WAS A BOOK"..those protesters clearly felt this was a case of police misconduct. now we know there was no book recovered from the scene, and the evidence does not point to police misconduct.[/quote] Crickets [/quote] This is Michael Brown all over again. Everyone got all upset over that "sweet kid's" death when in reality he was a violent criminal who reached into a police car for an officer's gun. A lie started the whole "hands up don't shoot" thing yet protesters still use it. So I'm sure we'll be seeing "IT WAS A BOOK" in many protests to come. [/quote]
