I guess WE will have to start "marching" & "protesting" for every infraction/crime. (This will require folks who are retired/unemployed as it will demand a LOT of free time, due to the frequency of incidents).

Waiting for ANY black people to accept responsibility for their own actions. Stop blaming the white man for your own screwups. He is dead, he killed his inbred self. Drug user and seller...GONE. Next...

They don't want justice, they want revenge. Justice would involve the truth & I doubt that they are willing to accept the truth

Have you ever witnessed a meth head, or crack head that can move in contorsionists positions??? It can easily happen, especially with someone young and flexible. His Family is Definately in Denial!! I know of a 34 year old that got his handcuffed hands from behind his back, in a squad car, under his feet and in front of him. If you don't think this is possible, then you are also wearing blinders. hhmmm

Marcus: What a lower, level of journalism that you have fallen to. This punk was a predator. Just do your research, and ask some people that knew him, BESIDES his family. It's obvious they are trying to generate some kind of lawsuit..... ya think???

come on, does the family really need to question this? He had meth in his system. that says it all right there, second the trend of loose clothing today makes it hard for officers sometimes to find weapons around the waist line. and last what parent isn't going to say that their child was perfect. I am sorry but there are things my parents do not and never will know I ever did.
