We didn't ask what you personally feel it is, we are going off of what its said to be.

I would consider someone a 'full grown man' when he stops growing vertically at 6' 4" and weighs almost 300 pounds.

Drop the argument and come up with a stufftier one already, you're beating a dead horse.

We're gonna need a citation on this that isn't butthurt tumblr victim mentality conspiracy.

This is only a race issue because you have made it a race issue with absolutely 0 reason to. What reason do you actually have to say this was a race issue? Just because the belligerents were different colors, does not make it a race issue.
Is it a race issue because 'all white cops are tribal'? Or 'all white people are tribal'? Talk about forgetin' stereotypes.

It's a race issue because police have killed hundreds of unarmed black people within the last two decades and are rarely charged for it. It's a race issue because if a black man is involved with a crime he is called a "thug" or a "delinquent" but if a white dude is involved with a crime he's "made a bad decision" or is "mentally unstable" and if you don't see this you're absolutely blind.

And no, not all white cops are tribal, and not all white people are tribal. But african americans and other minorities are commonly discriminated against nowadays, and some white people (not all of them by any means, there are plenty who would agree with what I'm saying), don't give a forget because they're not being affected by it. I'm hispanic, and every time I've put my legal first name, Jorge, on a job application I never get a call back. But if I put Joey or Joe, what most people call me, that's when I get calls.

Racism still exists today and if you don't see that you're living in a fantasy land.

But, honestly, regardless of all this we've just gotta learn to understand that the only way we're going to go anywhere in life is if we stop loving judging people based on their race, loveual preference, or gender and start judging them by the content of their character.

He was legally an adult
Regardless of what people think defines a grown man, it doesn't matter
18 years = adult


i know he's legally an adult, i just refer to him as a kid because in what should have been a long lifetime he was only 18, and that really isnt a long time.
Lol


4chan users are claiming responsibility. said theyre using bots or something


well I'm certain pointing weapons at armed policemen is a surefire way to ensure a long life

well I'm sure pointing weapons at armed policemen is a surefire way to prevent a long life

Yeah I assumed so. It was 20 80 a couple hours ago lol

he was unarmed.
if he lifts weights, he was packing some heat

well I'm certain pointing weapons at armed policemen is a surefire way to ensure a long life
a surefire way to lose credibility immediately is to say long debunked stuff
kimon i normally have a lot of respect for you but damn man let it go
i dunno if you realize this but this is very much a huge public event that is going on right now and not getting involved isnt helping anything

and if you don't see this you're absolutely blind.

Or maybe I just don't cherry pick data?
Police shoot and kill more than one type of race regularly year round. The fact that you tagged 'black people' onto it means you have already made it into a race issue.

And no, not all white cops are tribal, and not all white people are tribal. But african americans and other minorities are commonly discriminated against nowadays, and some white people (not all of them by any means, there are plenty who would agree with what I'm saying), don't give a forget because they're not being affected by it. I'm hispanic, and every time I've put my legal first name, Jorge, on a job application I never get a call back. But if I put Joey or Joe, what most people call me, that's when I get calls.

Okay first of all that job application thing is hilariously loving flat lol
Yes, racism exists. I never denied this and I don't see why you telling me that racism exists is even relevant to what I'm trying to say. What I'm talking about is why this particular issue had to be made into one about race.

I'll give you the flipside too. If Darren Wilson was ruled guilty of murder, it still might of not been about race. He could've owed Brown money or lost to a game of cards or something. You still can't rule that it was a racially charged issue.
