Ahh. Got the wrong end of the stick.
I'll get off my high horse now, since we have no argument.

It's no one's "fault" if liberals would do any thinking at all. Every problem has many causes. Thinking that "A" leads to "B" and causes "C" is a bankrupt notion of the 19th century.
I have learned that teaching children morals from television, opinion or interpretation is rarely successful.
Just because we may think we are engaging in moral teaching with our children does not mean we will be successful in doing so.
Kids need to be cared for, respected and treated fairly. Many of today's "family values" are actually not very helpful.
This, I believe, is the main reason Jesus made so many savage attacks on the family values of his day--and did so very, very often.
Blacks tell other blacks that too and want to keep down those who aspire to a better life.

The power of the free market. Once a district gets a reputation for being a poor area, the house rents drop and no middle class person will rent there. The poor, who get priced out of the gentrified areas have no choice but to move to the poor area.
It is the reason that new housing projects here are required to have a mix of cheap and expensive housing to keep a healthy mix of people from different income brackets, and so preventing the place becoming an unhealthy monoculture. Separated mono-cultures just breed distrust and resentment, along with civil unrest.
The cop's a reckless homicidal punk.
yeah, he should have just sat there and let brown punch him again, then take his weapon and shoot him, so he could prove he wasnt a racist.
Assuming that's what happened. Not much of his story seems to make much sense.
...stated "The Armchair Quarterback"....
Funny how the people here who go long and loud about "freedom" and "liberty" are the ones who consistently side with militarized cops and don't say a word about police brutality.

They don't want freedom and liberty for the poor blacks. They only want it for themselves. Equality and fraternity is their enemy.
Yep that happens, not sure why you believe no one believes that, but
its funny how the libbies keep picking the wrong cases to prove that where they add racism to where racism doesnt exist, which shows them the real racists.
This one is far from it.
A word about police brutality, it needs to be investigated and punished when warranted. The way in which police are trained and prepared for the job needs to be reviewed regularly.
But I believe the citizens have a responsibility to obey the law.

Not a nebulous they, but specifically those who blame 'blacks' for their own socioeconomic problems without accepting their own culpability in the social arrangements that are the ultimate causes.
whites blame blacks for white poverty ?

Reviewed by who? And what would you say finally "warrants" investigation and punishment? When it comes to punishment, are you talking jail time?
Cities have councils, right? The Police answer to the Mayor, right?
The Mayor answers to the will of the people, wrong! The Mayor only answers to the will of the people when an overwhelming reaction occurs!
There have been overwhelming reactions to the use of an illegal choke hold on a fellow who was hustling to make a few bucks.
A citizen ought not to die for such a misdemeanor!
Therefore, oh crabby one,
The city Commissioners need to appoint a panel to set up the guidelines for police response and behavior in the course of performing their almost thankless and dangerous duty!!!
It is call "Policies and Procedures" and "Job Descriptions".
Uh, no, not really. At least, not always. Often they answer to their chief who may answer to a police board and or commissioner. Depends on the town. And keep in mind mayors are loathe to antagonize police departments and city prosecutors...
Uh, okay? All I did were ask some questions to clarify what you meant. You decided to go into hysterics instead. Maybe switch to decaf, sweetheart.
Agreed. And nothing's going to happen to the punk bully who killed Eric Garner, so, obviously something needs to give.
So you're in favor of civilian oversight. Great. Answer me this: Why do so many police departments oppose it?

First you blame everyone outside the culture that produces these degenerates.
Then you claim the degenerates are not at fault and can't change how they are.
Next you will be telling us that the cause of their antisocial behavior is genetic.
