law abiding citizen, open carry locations and homeowners defending their lives are entitled to weapons and actions that protect them and their families. This seems like a righteous shoot, I wasn't there I don't know.
I just know if it had been reversed there is a distinct possibility that the homeowner get's arrested or even shot if weapon was still in hand upon arrival of police. That is all I know. Your attempt to show reality gives many a joy here and elsewhere, the bad guy is down. Motivation is something that always has aroused intense suspicion in me. This society does not alleviate that intensity of suspicion of motive. You may very well not have had an underlying motivation for showing this video, I will never know. It is your motive versus my suspicion. Fine. I still will ALWAYS question motive. Have to in this society and day and time.
anyone here
can be on any side they please. Just a word post would have been sufficient. But graphic is the way these days. I have no "preferred outcome" since outcome was damn sure emphasized. Motivation for post here at DU is my concern which of course I can never know but WILL ALWAYS suspect. Don't trust motivation in these trumpenfuhrer times.
the weapon she had
gave her an edge. I do not claim that she was wrong in using her weapon. The goddamn video is race baiting material and the poster knows it along with those who love the content of video and what it depicts. I question motive for posting. Period. Can't really give a damn about the defenders of post really and don't. I made my point of response. Motivation.
of course not
but my questions, in these times, with the amount of racist comments coming from this sight and general teumpefuhrer society of deplorables, I wonder about the motivation of posting this video in the first place. Secondly I have never seen one posted here with white people getting killed like this although they are out there doing the same thing. I know this from personal experience. Three live on my street together according to someone who knows them from high school. Lord know I would never mention their race. This video ought to gin up gun sales. Motivation is my key question these days here and elsewhere where it can be whitesplained away as just a social comment on crime, guns, sel defense and black criminals of which they were. They got the recompense of their actions and the one fatally.
this clown
has no social conscience or awareness because he lost his soul to money decades ago. To hell with d. king. Still to stupid to understand that they are laughing at him instead of with him. In another time, would make a good field overseer....
negative experience(s)
prompted me to study american christianity, especially the racist and bigoted Southen Baptist belief, for 20years and then realize, it's not as the so-called religious leaders say. American Christianity Sunday worship, still the most segregated hour in america.
how gullible
the dumbing down of americans has worked in a very dangerous and frankly, scary manner. This clown believes everything thing told, read, presented by hate radio, internet and his trumpenfuhrer. All I can do is hope enlightened decent people turn out to vote on NOVEMBER 8TH, a day of reckoning for all americans and citizens of the world. If not, it is a fact that on January 17th, this will not be my country anymore, so adios to all amigos. I've got other country's to choose from. Although IF trumpenfuhrer wins, nowhere, really, will be safe. And to all you who think there will be people around him to keep him in check, I bet they thought the same thing about the original fuhrer.
I see no need for the OP author to "get back to you"
as someone who has no clue. Distraction, diversion a tried and true reality here. If enough good americans "kneeled", metaphorically, we would not already be so divided. The OP or Colin Kaepernick, take your choice, are pointing to this fact of deep division along racial lines not causing it. That damage has been on going for 250+ years and NOT getting any better.
as usual
hit the bullseye of truth. Something people here and elsewhere have foresaken because the truth is in short supply everywhere in america these days.
The star spangled anthem furor is something I had never thought about and had accepted this anthem on face value every time it was played and sung by americans. Then, thank you Colin Kaepernick, I learn that a slaveholding, dyed in the wool pro-slavery chump, penned this anthem with stanzas calling for the masscre of blacks who were promised their freedom by the 'enemy'(the british), if they fought against the american white man, the ONLY one with rights who were enslaving human beings based on some religious/social construct(s) created to justify slavery by the white man as a god given right. Whomever and whatever that god may be. Because of this latest rise in racism dredged up by the trumpenfuhrers campaign what could white americans expect from the victims of racist hate, murder and execution by white male and female police officers, police wannabes like zpig and hateful white supremacy cult wannabes and active members? These killings/murders are becoming the catylyst for trumpshirts racism along with the racist hyperbole from their fuhrer's campaign for POTUS.
g. zimmerman turned on, with his murder of Trayvon Martin, this latest spotlight on american racism that has always either been turned off with bullshit "be patient" ect. caveats, ignored with bullshit caveats of turn the other cheek, wait for the court case, which 9 out of ten times releases the murderer back into society with his/her gun toting rights intact to murder again. Betty Shelby, the officer that shot and killed an unarmed man shows me why there are so many adoring women in ecstasy at the trumpenfuhrer rallies. I have seens this type of reaction of adoration in rallies of pre WW2 and post 1933 germany when the first fuhrer was present.
As the OP suggests, take a knee white america and bow your head and ask for forgivness in letting white privilege and comfort guide you instead of a decent conscience when someone is murdered like a Trayvon Martin, Sandra Bland, Tamir Rice, Michael Brown and many others including our latest murder victim, Terence Crutcher. I will never stand again for the national anthem because I know it WAS NOT written for my ancestors or even me today given the racist racial climate that is very ugly and widespread in this election season and is providing fertile ground for the rise of a New Nazi Party forming right here in Amerikkka.
HRC is our only hope to turn back thec RW tide that has been unchallenged and allowed to grow every since the 2000-4 RW theft of our electoral process and as the OP suggests, having enough people of good conscience take that metaphorical knee and in numbers enough to let the Nazi Party of America know that it won't be the same as it was in 1933.
To me it was/is very sad that an AA POTUS is what it has taken to show the truth of american culture/society, politics and race relations.
