That camera video was proven to be a fluke and had no connection with the police officer. The police did not know he stole two cigars. Those were two SEPERATE incidents. The cop did not know Michael was connected to that.
Even if he did, does that mean the kid deserved to die?

i actually agree with you here. i remember hearing the kid robbed some store thinking he went in with a gun or something an held it up. when i heard it was that he actually stole some cigars i was like wtf does that have to do with anything. really misleading to even bring it up and especially to call it a robbery.
but i do think in general you seem to see everything through a racial lens so you kind of blow these things out of proportion. i'm not saying racism isn't an issue with the police and i know for a fact i've had police say racist things to me feeling safe to do so cause i was white so they figured i'd agree with them. so i'm usually thankful i'm white whenever i get pulled over or stopped. but i think what makes so many people here irritated with you is that you sensationalize it so much and they probably mostly come from suburban areas and haven't seen much of what you're talking about anyway. and also you jump to some outlandish conclusions like the criminal remark frownland is face-palming at above.
