Just yesterday I heard a man say, "We need more good young men like Michael Brown in this country." F-uck you, we have way too many like him.

I don't understand how he can act that way and still get the benefit of the doubt over the cop who shot him. I see no evidence that this cop is lying or that he had any intention of killing an innocent person. He killed Michael Brown because Michael Brown is a f-ucking prick who was asking for it. At least now he won't be sucking up $30,000 a year of taxpayer money as penitentiary inmate because that was clearly his goal in life.

And I loathe the rioters. As soon as you start destroying other people's property, you are nothing but a f-ucking vandal who should be forced to pay restitution AND go to prison with a felony conviction. Such people have no credibility and I am not the slightest bit interested in anything they have to say.

That's my contribution to this thread.

lol... i honestly agree with you this time larehip.

i could see that being a beneficial genocide tbh.

I support a very liberal use of the death penalty. I wouldn't start with street thugs, however. I would probably start with bankers who make billions structuring America's economic system of debt, those guilty of usury, basically. Then I would move on to the ultra-rich who have profitted tremendously from meaningless wars. The Halliburton types. War criminals in general. And people who have profitted from the oppression of non-violent people through incarcerating people for marijuana in privately run for profit prisons. And violent street criminals, them too. They're not first in line but they are in the line.

It's never going to be my world so it's not like it matters.

Look, with more than 7 billion people on this planet human life isn't something we need to get all persnickety about.

You think I'm insincere and just trying to work people up for attention?

Considering the amount of riots and hate towards what has happened because of this whole ordeal, I'm pretty sure the world is now worse because of it. If you think people blowing up cars and rioting all over country is making the world better, well that's your own issue.

That wasn't my point. I said due to what happened in this whole ordeal (meaning the anger that went with the cop not getting charged / the kid being shot), riots took place. Is rioting making the world better?

I didn't say you had a point. I asked a question.

Are rioters making the world better?

No.

No.

Then how is the fact that the supposed thug being killed making the world better? The rioters are the result of both the kid being shot and the cop getting away, and yet you say it's not.
