Which case are you talking about? This is the "bridgroom" thing. None of the targets were armed. Most of the shooting was done by one officer, but the Undercover guy got in 11 rounds, all on target. Guess that happens when you stand on the hood and shoot down through the window into the target.

Run over? On top the hood? Irreconcilable issues ~

There's even some confusion regarding who the cops were shooting at ~ some of them seemed to be of the impression the guy who was the undercover cop was one of the bad guys. His own testimony about where he was at what time tends to dovetail with the supposed sighting of a "fourth person". He's lucky he didn't get hit.

Regarding the "whiteness" of a person of Lebanese ancestry, some are certainly considered "white" and some are certainly considered "non-white" ~ depends on the time of day, social circumstances, etc. Folks in that part of the world have been bringing in African slaves for thousands and thousands of years.

Oh, yeah, and the SUV part of the story. In the "bridegroom case" the COPS own the SUV, their targets are in a sedan. The story you are trying to insert has the targets with the SUV, and the cops in a sedan or on foot.

That's enough difference anyone could easily differentiate between the two stories. The "Arabs with machinegun case" has nothing to do with this one.

Wow.

It was just sarcasm, prompted by the picture.

I wasn’t trying to dispute the facts, or argue them.

Just trying to point out that Sharpton has dollar signs in his eyes.

Were the cops overzealous, or went overboard on this?
Seems so to me.

Did they do it because Sean Bell was black?
Apparently not.

Sharpton’s trying to make this into a racial issue, and I don’t think it is. (Even though Al and the media have done their best to make it racial)
