That is completely untrue. I just don't know if you believe it or your just lying.

44 seconds: an armed suspect in a series of breaking and entering is running toward a cop car approximately 80-85 feet away. He is in the middle of a fairly busy 4 lane road in Chicago. 50 seconds: suspect slows to a walk and pulls his knife out of his pocket. He is now about 22 feet from first cop ...

And no, he is not "closing the gap." I don't know what video you saw. He was walking farther away and got into a farther lane than the police were in. The only people "closing the gap" were the cops who shot and killed him for doing nothing to them. I watched the same video you did. I also went to ...

So carrying a knife and walking away from a cop is grounds for murdering someone? You are stretching the truth to fit your agenda. As I pointed out earlier he was not walking away he was closing the gap, at an angle, but closing it none the less. and he wasn't just carrying a knife, he pulled it ou...

Sorry craig. I guess we don’t see eye to eye with the first sentence of my post. However, I think we’re on the same page with the rest of it. Even though our opinions are not the same, I’ll respect your point of view and leave it at that. May you and your family have a happy holiday... and I’m not ...

Cop rolls up. Black guy walks away from cop. Six seconds later black guy has 16 bullets in him. Your middle sentence is not remotely accurate. The distance between him and the cops was getting smaller not larger. As I stated earlier he was not walking directly at them but was walking in their gener...

Should the 17 year old have been shot for his actions... absolutely. I had 3 cops at my house yesterday for Thanksgiving. This case was not discussed. I only mention it for some context to my post. A cop only uses deadly force when they feel either their life or the life of some innocent party is i...

The lad shouldn't be dead. The cop acted too quickly and a jury of 12 will decide his fate. But when you break in to vehicles high on PCP, stab the tire of a cop car, skip down a busy 4 lane street in Chicago then pull a knife out when 3 cop cars arrive ignoring their commends getting killed is one ...

well said Vic.

I think I will nickname this thread the "more shoot from the hip misinformed hysteria from our conservative friends..."

http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-me-pc-redskins-mascot-banned-20151011-story.html Seriously, a law to ban the word Redskin with Schools? What happens if they serve Redskin potatoes lunch? What a gas! The old potato argument. I will provide a link below to the bill and after reading it you can wit...

Maybe Rush has a lot of stuff to pack.

The ironic thing is Costa Rica has universal health care.

exactly...people say,text and tweet hyperbole all the time. It shouldn't be taken literally.

Of course Rush Limbaugh said he would leave the country and move to Costa Rica 5 years after Obama Care passed He is close to 6 months late departing.

St. Louis attorney Timm Schowalter says, “All students have a right, under Title 9, to access the bathroom of their choice.”

Huh? I sure wish that was an option when I was a lad. The line to get in the girls bathroom would have been rather long
