Breaking: Walter Scott seen running from police on Dash Cam

Child support. a broken taillight, etc. absolutely does not justify gun shots to the back. However, if you choose to quack (run from, resist, or attack the police) expect to be treated like a duck. Ducks quack. Dont be a duck.
So even though you've posed no threat, running from the cops can get you shot? Might as well call it duck season then bud. Killing a man should only be reserved for the absolute necessity of it. There was no necessity in this matter. That's all that needs to be debated.
Will I agree that the outward appearance of anyone tends to get you profiled? Fuck yes it does. While I do agree how you look says a big part on how you want to be perceived, it still doesn't matter in this case. Had the guy lived the conversation might hold a little bit more water.
I grew up in a smaller town as a kid, my senior year of high school I bought a snowmobile and went out riding at night because the traffic was little. Although its "illegal" nobody was ever stopped unless the cop felt like being an asshole. One night I saw lights behind me around 11pm while riding on a side street... pulled over. Keep in mind I wasn't going fast, wasn't on the sidewalks, etc etc
Realized I was going to catch a world of shit or being told I was breaking "curfew" (which don't get me started on, is a total fucking joke) instead fired my little 440 back up, went about 500 feet, through a ditch and out into a field. Flipped my sled around, flashed my lights... cop took his off and drove away. I don't feel like there's anyway you could justify me being shot for that.

Where did I say you should be shot for running from the police? Using the duck analogy, I said "expect to be treated like a criminal"

Of course not. And I do think if there was video of Michael Brown getting shot it "likely" would show that he dove into the cops car and that was that. Frankly those cops should have drawn on that whole family the moment they started fighting. And I "know" if they were black that's exactly what would have happened. No doubt.

because this site and my browser are still not on the same page I can't post this link but google "police release video of deadly brawl in Walmart parking lot'
I'll give a short synopsis. Police come to a Walmart parking lot to question an 8 person white family that are basically gypsies going around singing about the coming of jesus. Apparently there was an altercation inside the Walmart and when the 4 cops came they tried to separate out one or two of the family members who were allegedly involved in the altercation so that they could question them....absolutely standard procedure. However those family members said fuck you you're not separating us from our family and proceeded to headlock a cop, not joking about that. So long story short a brawl breaks out between the family and the cops. It's like 8 on 4. The family members are actively struggling to get the cops weapons and after awhile one of em does and I think shoots a cop in the foot THEN AND ONLY THEN do one or two of the family members get shot. I defy any of you to watch that video and say that if those family members were black that those cops wouldn't have had those guns out ALOT sooner. Infact it's a massive breach of protocol in that situation, to now have your guns drawn fairly shortly after that brawl ensues. Each cop that didn't draw his weapon while seeing his fellow cops getting double teamed in some cases with the family members pawing at the guns, put his and the other officers lives in danger.
How does a white family get away with this? Black people can't run away from traffic stop or sell single cigarettes on the side of the road ffs...without getting escalated. Until today when I saw this video, I was "firmly" under the belief that Michael Brown got everything that would have happened to me had I dove into a cops car and struggled for his weapon. Now I'm not sure.

Black people are responsible for an inordinately high amount of violent crime vs their percentage of the population. This is a true fact whether you like it or not. That's a large part of why they are continously profiled.

Boy, that might explain a lot. I should probably go get tested?

no, I know "exactly" what happened in the Eric Garner case. I know 'exactly" what that cop did and how he tried to disguise what he was doing.

Unpaid child support? Well, that's new, haven't heard of that before!

OK. I have read articles saying there was a bench warrant and now articles saying there was no bench warrant. There is this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/04/10/walter-scott-child-support-_n_7036174.html
one eight - 12.5 % of South Carolinas inmates were arrested for unpaid child support.

Just in case anyone thinks there is any straight news left in America, The New York Times headline I just saw read 'South Carolina officer charged with murder in black man's death.'

I'm disturbed with the racially biased narrative.
