A QUICK COMPARASIN
In NY we are awaiting the grand jury finding on the eric garner death.
In the michael brown death they rioted when it didn't turn out the way they liked.
Now the comparison of the 2, both would be considered large hulking individuals, both disobeyed a
policeman's lawful order and had to be dealt with on a physical level, eric garner had an extensive
arrest record while michael brown had just committed a robbery.
My reason for posting is to find out with people like this why do others feel the need for justice without
mentioning justice would be to put criminals in jail!
Now for those that want to bring up treyvon martin a point of interest might be:he bought skittles &
arizona WATERMELON FRUIT PUNCH not ice tea, the importance of this is 2 of the 3 ingredients to make
a cheap low grade meth is skittles & arizona watermelon fruit punch & a third ingredient that you can
get at cvs. Another point of interest is he had trace amounts of the drug in his system & the drug can
make you more hyper and agressive.
all 3 of these incidents that the protests and riots are about are for those who have no respect for the
law.

A comparison between the two situations in inevitable... but not really valid.
The officer in Missouri followed procedures; this nit-wit used a choke-hold that has been banned...
..and it's also not the first time that he's been in trouble.
It's just my opinion; this Grand Jury made a mistake... this time.

Huh?
The title of this particular forum is "Spyder General Discussion". Why would someone bring up such a subject that has absolutely nothing to do with the title and purpose of the forum? Many interesting and highly useful internet forums on the internet have been destroyed by injecting highly contentious but unrelated subjects into the conversation. At the very least, it ought to have been posted on the Off Topic forum.

Please, lets keep this out of the Spyder General Discussion forum. There is another forum for Off-Topic discussions.

i am sorry if this post upset some and if i knew how i would put it in another section but i do not regret the
post since i firmly believe in our 1st ammendment. i just wish the news would tell the truth and the full
story so protesters would do so for the right reasons.

I don't think that the complaint was about the thread...
... It was more about where you put it.
And it's been fixed!

I agree with the Grand Jury in both cases. I do not think he was inteding it to be a choke hold, but a place to grab to try and sudue a large subject.
Obeying police orders in 99 % of the time is good advice, I think.

whenever someone wants to post controversy on a website, they argue their amendment rights. Those rights include the fact you can say something, NOT that you have the right to say it on a site you don't own. The owner of this site has the right to not let you post controversy if they choose. You then have the right to start your own site and post whatever you want.

With all the saturation on the cable news channels . . .
you have to wonder whether the cable news channels are trying to stir this country into another civil war. Just to get the ratings up, if you know what I mean.
Honestly, though. These are all very tragic incidents and I can't help but wonder if we're headed back through the 60's again. Perhaps we didn't learn our lesson, back then.
So far, my second childhood is better than my first.

In spite of what the various News Media outlets are telling you;
we're pretty-much smarter now, than we were back then.

I will also add . . .
I think it is important to have faith in "the system" (I hate that term) to work. I suspect that in each case there will be a major civil settlement in each case. It won't bring back anyone, but it will force the "powers that be" to stop and reconsider what they're doing before they go bankrupt. Just says. . .
So far, my second childhood is better than my first.
