Truth hurts, also makes it damned hard for a good Democratic governor to spin it along party lines (Dare I say Whitewash the incident?...Nah that'd be racist, just ask any good lockstep lib.) :)

****************
He said the release of the footage nearly a week after a policeman shot Mr Brown in Ferguson, St Louis, "appeared to cast aspersions" on the dead man.

How long do you think it will be before the police chief of Ferguson retires, resigns or is fired?
 
I heard the Ferguson PD had less than 50 officers, and that only 3 of them were black. I also heard that Ferguson, MO is almost 70% black. If these 2 things are true, then shit was going to start there sooner or later....

According to police chief he'd tried to hire more blacks but evidently none applied or qualified and cop that shot brown had been on the force 6 years and had NO complaints.........doesn't appear the problem with the police force and residents, it's with those that came to loot.

Honestly don't know or care, I do know however that being a county sheriff here in this part of the country can sometimes be a lifetime appointment with all the perks that go along with having ones own fiefdom.

Right wrong or indifferent this is the south and there are still attitudes and customs that are adhered to here. I definitely don't agree with the way people view, speak to and about black folks here. But I sure know I'm not going to change it but it also doesn't mean I have to do it or listen to it either.

I grew up in Southern California and have a somewhat differing attitude towards people of color, I worked with all races in my career and managed to get along just fine with them, do unto others and all that.

Because they aren't incompetent and being paid by taxpayers like him. He should be able to get a job at any burg in NC though.

or he could be a Drunk DA down in Austin Texas.........how incompetent is that taxpayer employee?
What has the police chief did that is incompetent, not doing as 'O' and Holder wanted and instead released video of Brown strong-arming the clerk?

What if they had a video of Brown helping a little old lady across a busy street corner. Would they have released the video to show Brown was a good boy and didn't deserve to be shot? In either case nothing to do with the shooting.

If you can't see it no chance of me explaining it to you. What has the drunk DA in Austin done ON THE JOB that you disapprove of?

interesting.........NC Highway Patrol seldom if ever stationed in county where they were raised.....I guess that would cause problems......friends/family expecting favors.

It could, and so could being a very obvious outsider, like an almost all-white PD in an overwhelmingly black community. You'd have to have a very high level of professionalism to overcome something like that. Skin color is a very distinct indicator that that person is not like you... and cops deal with people when they're already drunk, stoned, or just upset, and all of those things affect a person's ability to stop and think rationally. When the limbic system gets fired up, the monkey is driving the bus.

I doubt if this shooting didn't happen that this robbery/shoplifting would have led to a felon charge. It could have been settled without going to court with community service and probation. The store would have to charge him and would probable not want a court trial and they could have settled between the store and the family. You of course would still want to shoot him.

too little, too late. the governor should've called out the chief of police on day 1 for inflaming the situation instead of doing what a properly trained police force would do.......calm the situation down, not make it worse.
