No it's not.

The reason more blacks and Hispanics are in prison, is that more of them commit crimes, more of them are living off of the sweat of working taxpayers.

The system is not unfair.

Just a bunch of losers who make bad choices and then don't want to be punished for their bad choices.

The system is not unfair.

It is a system built to feed lawyers, judges, prosecutors, public defenders, cops, prison guards, social workers, probation officers and more. It has nothing to do with justice, safety or security.

I didn’t say it was official fact. I was responding to someone who already had decided that the cop used “Rambo” tactics on a poor innocent unarmed kid, with less evidence than I provided, for his assertion.

Looks like Rand Paul decided to put another nail in his presidential bid coffin by spewing the ugly, sick, racial talking points of the left.

Well here's all I have to say to you rand Paul-

Yeah, it's kind of like democracy. It's the worst system, besides all others.

Yeah, let’s get rid of the police and let Rand, Al and Jesse protect us. See how that works out.

Good post. I hooe you repost that in every thread about Rand Paul. Everyone should know what a phoney piece of McCainesque garbage this guy is.

Rand and Ron Paul are demagogues. McCain just has his head up his ass.

Right.

So all the crimes that these thugs commit are all the fault of others, right?

Whoa. Rand Paul is ALL IN on this “New Racial Tone” strategy. Won’t he be surprised when he discovers he nets no more than 1-2% of the Black (and Hispanic, with amnesty) vote from all his efforts.

Were it only so. Sen. Paul is setting himself up to be the kind of Republican people that Republican people have been waiting for.

Wrong. He’s reaching out to a group of disaffected Democrats and inviting them to cross over to our side. You should be glad for that.

The over-policing occurred before then and you know it. If you don’t, then start learning.

He was unarmed when he was gunned down. He had his hands up when he was gunned down.
This is what a witness who is a friend of ‘the kid’ says.

No, these comments come from a motorist who saw the confrontation and the subsequent shooting.

Why don’t you wait for the facts to come in? Last I heard there was a shot fired in the car. Apparently the policeman was attacked in his car by ‘the kid’ who may have tried to wrestle his pistol away from him.

It wasn't just a friend that witnessed the kid trying to take away the gun. It was an un-involved motorist who also witnessed that happening, so what. Just because someone tries and fails to steal your gun is not reason enough to later execute them when they try to surrender. He got killed for being an angry black kid.

I didn't suggest that.
