    Nope, sorry. Shitty cop, shitty training, shitty judgement. Shitty outcome.

    Nope. A fleeing person no longer poses a threat.

I could give a shit about stealing cigars an hour before, that's immaterial. Browns killing was rightfully justifiable homicide, Floyds killing was not.
    Wilson ran the obese kid 60 yards before Brown turned around. In that 60 yards, Brown was no longer a physical threat. When Brown turned, are you telling me Wilson could not retreat from that fat kid for the same distance?

    Indeed.

    Martial Law, if needed.

    The first responsibility of government is to protect its citizens.

    Why should a cop retreat from a criminal?

    The onus of avoidance of a needless death is on the thug who was running from, then turned to attack a duly sworn law enforcement officer in the performance of his duty.

    There is no requirement, neither legally nor morally, for a police officer to retreat from a criminal, suspected or known, who is trying to evade arrest.

    AAMOF, it is the responsibility of the officer to use all reasonable means to pursue and capture the suspect, and if necessary to protect himself or the public, utilize deadly force.

    When Brown turned around and moved towards the officer in a threatening manner, he opened the door to his own demise.

    If you refuse to accept that, it's your problem and you're the one who has to live in misery over it.

    Enjoy.

There is NO comparison between Brown and Floyd.
    Yes, they were both black and deserving death.

    I didn’t say there was any requirement to retreat to safety. Merely good judgement. He can chase a fat kid 60 yards, but can’t evade him?

    Trump has no authority to name a domestic group as a terrorist group. His power for that is limited to foreign groups. Trump is making noise and rightys cannot help listening. Who is Antifa? Who leads them? How are the members designated and what roles do they have? What is their structure? Antifa is no group ,no organization, and of no consequence. But rightys need their boogieman so badly.
