Ahem. Louis Head IS Michael Brown's stepfather.
Grieving parents get a pass from me when it comes to saying stupid things. Looters who are capitalizing on this event to get some freebies? Not so much.
Right and your rant addresses Mr. Brown, about "burn this bitch down. Michael Brown's father didn't say that.

He did in fact, say that, the other day, and when asked about it, he got sheepish and said that the moment got away with him.
Don't think that excuse would hold up in court if he were ever charged with inciting a riot....
Yea, so I called him Mister Brown. You didn't notice, however, that I preceded that with "A message to Michael Brown's stepfather? OK, so I made a typo. Big deal. Still doesn't detract one iota from my message, does it? Or are you only trying to stir the pot a little here? 'Ya know, those who stir the pot should have to lick the spoon. :mrgreen:

Just like the NBP bounties, this will likely be excused.
Stop trying to cover for Dan. He ****ed up; time to take it like a man.
I'm not covering for Dan. I saw it on the Today show or one of those news shows the other day.
I'm sure you won't believe that either, though. :lol:
Post a link, or quit lieing.
MB wasn't shot because he strong arm robbed the store dude...He was shot because he assaulted an officer, tried to take his gun, then when directed to stop and give up, he turned and charged the officer he just assaulted...By saying that he was shot for anything less than that is a lie.
Can't find one, but that doesn't mean that I'm "lieing."
You can't find one, because Brown didn't say it. You were making **** up to cover for Dan and it blew up in your face.
Countries like Britain deal with offenders regularly without shooting them to death.
If we're talking about legalities then maybe shooting a thief could be justified in the legal system, but ethically? Something is wrong in the U.S. when petty crime is dealt with by homicide.
But... the sanctity of life in our country no longer applies, especially in poorer areas.

Yeah, you got me. I made it up to cover for Dan because I have this mad crush on him, I guess. :shrug:
I always did a thing for musicians. *sigh* I guess it makes me lie for them on political message boards.
He wasn't shot for theft. He was confronted due to the theft. He was shot due to punching a police officer, attempting to disarm him, then failing to follow simple instructions whilst advancing towards a police officer.Countries like Britain deal with offenders regularly without shooting them to death.

Today's Rant - A Message to Michael Brown's Stepfather
Look, Mr. Brown, I do feel that police shoot innocent people, but your son was not innocent. He stole cigars, and then punched a cop. Did Officer Wilson use excessive force? We will never know, because witnesses at the grand jury proceeding either lied, and were caught and had to change their stories, or didn't know what they were talking about, and when confronted with that, changed their story. It is very possible that Officer Wilson committed manslaughter or even murder, but witnesses against Wilson wanted him convicted so badly, that they muddied the waters by giving false information. Now, before you start calling me a racist (Even though I live in an almost 100% black neighborhood), look at the evidence. It speaks for itself. Is the evidence accurate? We will never know because of all the false information that was given by liars, and also by well meaning people who bought into a spin that was shown to be false. Just look at the evidence supplied by the witnesses. It is so polluted that there is no way that the grand jury could have arrived at the truth. And that, my friends, is why Officer Wilson was no-billed.
To the protesters who are burning down Ferguson..... Physician, heal thyself. Yes, racism exists, but it's existence is on both sides of the color divide. Before you can make America a better nation, you must put aside your own hatred. It takes two to tango, and if you can't recognize that simple fact, then I am sure that the KKK has some white robes you can wear, because you are no different than they are. Yes, it hurt me say that, but I have never promised that I would gloss over the truth for anybody, whether friend or foe. If you don't like what I am saying, you can always choose to ignore me, but this festering scab will always remain, until people, white and black alike, face this demon which will eventually destroy us all, if not immediately dealt with.
See 'ya in Fallujah, folks.
Thanx for listening.

That doesn't sound very peaceful to me. :roll:
