WAIT4ME: LOL? BTW, I don’t drink kool-aid. never have. Just can’t get it to be not so sweet or not so bitter.

I agree they were thugs, no care as to what skin color they have, they are thugs, uncivilized and in need of a reality check.

I just do not understand how all these posts on all forums seems to always turn into a race issue.  I don’t care if you are white, black, oriental, mexican, we are all EQUAL.  There are white thugs, black thugs, oriental thugs, mexican thugs.  Every race has its gangs, thugs, hoodlums, whatever, just quit turning these posts into racism.  It is getting ridiculous.  WHY DOES EVERYTHING BECOME ABOUT OUR SKIN COLOR…...Quit all the bickering and arguing on here, young people got out of control it was handled and handled well.  A poor life was lost GOD rest his SOUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It looked to me like the police were being careful when they had to subdue the person who refused to comply with their orders. Our police are on the job to protect justice. If this had been a crime scene, family and friends intruding on the scene could have compromised the evidence.

The theatrics get OLD! CALM DOWN FOLKS.

i agree with both tide fan and wait4me…i guess im saying all of what im saying because i see it first hand at work; and can understand just a little bit….

we all have to make decisions….i grew up in prichard,al and drugs and whatever else u can think of…but i chose to make the right choice in my life….but I could come up with every excuse to why those teens decided to act the way they did….i just hate they didn’t choose to make the “right” one….

One more thing…..People know right from wrong…I dont care how they were raised…everybody knows…right from wrong….The difference with a thug is that they simply dont care.

A Thug is a Thug…regardless of how they got to be one….Once that level is achieved..put their butts in jail…I dont care how they got to be that way….When he comes up and puts a gun in your face and demands your wallet…believe me, you wont give a flip how “he got that way, and you wont try to identify with him” what you will do is either live or die and if you think for one second that he cares for your safety or well-being…you are in such denial that it makes no difference whatsoever.

Nope, I still think they are thugs, no sympathy for them from me.  Now before you label me insensitive, cruel, just plain mean I’m talking about the thugs running amuck on camera, not the deceased or his family, my sympathy for them, not only do they have to deal with a death in the family they have to deal with “friends” acting like this.

i agree with you rosepetal…..i cant help but to undertsand with what they were possibly feeling during that difficult moment….

tpisupasta , no these people were thinking only of themselves. showing off. they should have had enough respect for the dead person to stand back and let the police do their job.
