And this, gentlepeople, is why I hate idiocy like the Ferguson, MO. case.

This is a legit case of police brutality. Combined with the idiotic laws against selling loose cigs (why is it illegal? Because NYC doesn't get their cut) it is a microcosm of much that's wrong with society, but because of the race baiting idiocy in MO, this is getting far less play when it's a much more legitimate case.
Someone posted a rather lenghty list of 'police shootings' in the last year.

I answered, 'How did those shining examples of citizenship come to be involved with the cops?"

Yes, the NYC case is an example of 'police brutality', but isn't the basic idea NOT to get on a PO's radar?

I guess I am too naive to have an opinion about cases like these.

You cannot fight the 'power', so why get into the ring?

Crime is like riding a bicycle.

You can get on and ride as far as you like, but you are going to fall down, eventually.

If you scrape your hands and knees, you can't blame anyone except the guy in the saddle.

YOU might take a stand against gravity as you get up, but who is really to blame when you fall?
