He shot a guy who had his hands up and was backing away. That's why this is a story. Not because of the negro-loving fake news media.

For someone who is agressively insisting that he's not a racist retard, you sure say a lot of retarded racist shit.

Objection. Assumes facts non in evidence.

Did you just have a stroke?

You somehow manage to turn an incident where a white civilian shot and killed an unarmed black man who was clearly backing away, and got off without any charges into a case for racism against white people. Are you alright, buddy?

No. I'm just not deranged.

Clearly??? Where are you getting this? Why do you get to just make up your own facts. I watched the video a dozen times. I saw the guy take one step backwards after the guy was already in the process of pulling out his gun to fire. The whole thing took a split second.

You're out of your gourd if you expect a guy who was just beaten to the ground, to have the presence of mind to be able to tell if his assailant is sufficiently deterred merely by the sight of a gun...within a split second. You seem to have this retarded racist idea that gun-toting white people are all reckless hillbillies that like to indiscriminately flap a trigger finger while yelling yeeeeehaaaw.

In reality, the overwhelming massive majority of gun owners are responsible people that have been trained in gun safety protocols and understand them. If you were one of those people, you would know that a gun is not for intimidation. It's not to brandished. If you pull it out, it's because you are going to shoot somebody. If you pull the gun out, it's because you've already decided that your life is being threatened and you need to respond with force.

That all happened before the black guy ever thought about taking a step backwards. If you expect a guy who was just hit by someone twice his size, and is on the ground, and is in panicked fear for his life, to then make a hair-splitting nuanced interpretation of a single step, then you're an ignorant douchebag.

And even if he was backing away. How do we know he wasn't moving toward his car to get his own gun? If you're the one on the ground after being attacked...are you really gonna take that chance? He's attacked you...you've threatened him with a gun....now you're gonna just wait for his next move? That would be stupid. Bigtime stupid.

I'll lay 50 to 1 right now, on any wager you wanna make that this guy gets off.

a case for racism against white people. Are you alright, buddy?

Are you alright? Because you seem to be conflating me with the alt-right hate machine that likes to scream about oppression against whites.

I've never claimed that white people were a victim of anything here. Not a single word of that. Did you have a stroke? If not, then why do you think I'm making claims of anti-white racism?

My claim is that any feeling of victimization by black people is completely erroneous and that it was artificially manufactured by opportunistic activists with a profit motive. I object to that as a person of intelligence and respect for the law. My whiteness is not offended in any way.

[oskar]

So even though there were no charges; the mere fact there are even people who would object to this being a completely justified use of deadly force, is evidence for organized racism against white people?

WHO is making this claim????

Shove your strawmen up your ass buddy.

[Poopadoop]

Wait, wat? This video?



Forget what colour these two guys are for a minute. Since when does getting pushed to the ground give you the right to kill someone?

Edit: I mean what a fucking pussy. Picks a fight with a woman, then when someone bigger than him pushes him down, he goes all Rambo on the guy. Fuck anyone who thinks his actions are defensible.

[BananaStand]

Wait, wat? This video?

yah that one. I mean, I don't even have to push 'play'. Just look at the freeze frame. The assailant is still standing over the guy. He's facing him. His hands are NOT up in the air.

The gun is already out, aimed, and committed to fire.

If this is a problem for that guy....he should have kept his fucking hands to himself.

[MadMojoMonkey]

Once he brandishes the weapon, the standing guy starts backing away.
There's no ground to stand at that point.

Shooting a person whom is backing away from you and not brandishing any weapon at all is fucking cold-blooded murder.
If you can't see that, then wtf is wrong with you?

Fuck you in face if you think you can truly sit in judgement of this incident and condemn a man who was attacked for nothing more than advocating for the handicapped.

The idea that the guy was backing away, AND THEN got shot is not definitively shown on the video. Not by a long shot.

And you clearly have no fucking idea what you're talking about because you used the word "brandish". That's not a reasonable function for a firearm. Anyone who thinks it's ok "brandish" a firearm as a means of protection or safety is wholly retarded. If the gun comes out...it's killing someone.

That decision was made. Fear was felt. Life was threatened. Gun was pulled out. The commitment to fire was made.

AND THEN the assailant took a step back. He was already dead at that point.

Expecting a panic stricken person to reverse course, from the ground, after being assaulted, while fearing for his life, in a fraction of a second, is crazy. That's not a reasonable expectation of human behavior.

Rather than respect your intelligence and try to discuss this you in a way that leads us both to a factual conclusion.....I'm just gonna spell this out for your low-IQ brain.

Benjamin Crump and Al Sharpton make millions of dollars convincing black people that they've been oppressed by white people. That is the entirety of their profession. They stir up controversy and make money. They don't give a fuck who got shot, why they got shot, or whether or not their hands were up when they got shot. They are unwaveringly committed to a single interpretation of events which just so happens to be the interpretation of events that gets them the most publicity and money. That's not a coincidence.

There are 350 million people in America. If these incidents were really indicative of underlying racism throughout society, then it seems wildly unlikely that it would only ever be noticed by the same two guys.
