Michael Brown

Excellent. Too bad the media typically ignores stories like this. Oh wait, they're too busy race-baiting.

A group of black Ferguson residents armed with AR-15s and other weapons stood guard around a Conoco station, owned by a white man, and saved it from being burned after looters began wreaking havoc on November 24.
Because of the armed citizens, the Conoco was not only spared, but the owner did not even have to board up the station's windows.
According to Reuters, one of the men guarding the station was 37-year-old "Derrick Jordan--'Stretch,' as his friends call him." He arrived in front of the Conoco, pulled out an AR-15, and stood guard at the store's entrance. He was joined by three other black residents on November 25--all of whom had "pistols tucked into their waistbands" and all of whom took up positions around the Conoco.
Other armed black men joined Jordan and the others from time to time to help keep guard. They protected not only the building, but also citizens who pulled up to get gas.
Store owner Doug Merello said, "We would have been burned to the ground many times over if it weren't for them."
Jordan and the others said they did not get paid to stand guard. Rather, they did it because Merello had "employed many of them over the years and treats them with respect."

Muslims killed a soldier on London's streets earlier this year (Lee Rigby). The difference was he didn't provoke anyone or do anything wrong or commit any crimes.... other than be a British soldier walking down the street.

Michael Brown however? Much different, and I don't get why there's so much media attention on it other than the "white cop shoots black guy" angle...and everyone goes crazy.

It's all in the verbiage, had the "news" reports gone with something like 'Teen robs convenience store, attacks responding officer and gets shot to death' it would've gone over just fine. Heck I'm sure LA gets those stories every day.

Instead we got 'WHITE cop kills unarmed BLACK teen' and Jessie Jackson just showed up in Seattle talking about equality...

Human beings die every day. Many of them in slower, more gruesome and preventable ways than that. Quit being dramatic.

It's a shame someone died but you fuck with a cop like the evidence suggests homeboy did and try to take his gun... That's what you should expect as a result.
