Other than as an interest story because of the infamy of the cop? MohRokTah Aug 2014 #11

it's done to people of color all the time JI7 Aug 2014 #22

So we should mimic that idiocy of racist idiots? DavidDvorkin Aug 2014 #32

in a case where the dead victim is being treated that way, yes it's ok to do the same to the killer JI7 Aug 2014 #50

No. It's vile in all cases. DavidDvorkin Aug 2014 #61

no, it's not equal . when it's the cop and his buddies who are smearing the person he killed JI7 Aug 2014 #63

Yes it is vile. His fucking mother has NOTHING to do with anything! nt Logical Aug 2014 #84

there is no "we" here. i'm more concerned about innocent black teen being shot to death JI7 Aug 2014 #110

What are you talking about? Everyone here thinks the cop is a murderer.... Logical Aug 2014 #112

what does the video of the store have to do with it? JI7 Aug 2014 #114

NOTHING, just like the cops mom did not shoot him! nt Logical Aug 2014 #115

so the cop should come out against the trashing of hte person he killed JI7 Aug 2014 #121

WTF are you talking about? Done with your coveluted mess of posts! nt Logical Aug 2014 #125

you don't know that this cop killed an unarmed black man ? JI7 Aug 2014 #126

And that is the point malaise Aug 2014 #57

If it is wrong for one group (racists), it's wrong for others. Chemisse Aug 2014 #60

not in this case where it involves the officer who did the killing and the dead victim being smeared JI7 Aug 2014 #62

And do you think that's ok? Marr Aug 2014 #183

not if the op was a cop JI7 Aug 2014 #187

Why are you instigating character assassination? That's just plain wrong. cui bono Aug 2014 #134

catwoman posting on an internet board is not the same as a police dept trashing a person one of JI7 Aug 2014 #137

It's character assassination and it should be beneath those who post on DU. cui bono Aug 2014 #138

maybe the cop should call for it to end starting with his own police dept JI7 Aug 2014 #140

Maybe. And maybe Catwoman should self-delete this OP. n/t cui bono Aug 2014 #141

perhaps she will when the police dept stops trashing the dead person JI7 Aug 2014 #142

Why should it rely on that? cui bono Aug 2014 #143

the police dept should be held to a far higher standard than some private individual JI7 Aug 2014 #144

Yes, so do that. Still doesn't excuse someone acting the same way the FPD is acting. cui bono Aug 2014 #145

it's not like she killed anyone or is covering up for someone who did so , so it's not the same JI7 Aug 2014 #146

We're not talking about the killing. We're talking about the character assassination and cui bono Aug 2014 #148

i don't believe in the "both sides do it" bs while ignoring the main thing which is a Dead Person JI7 Aug 2014 #149

We're not ignoring it, it is an active part of this discussion. cui bono Aug 2014 #151

what an official police dept does/says and what someone posts on the internet is not the same JI7 Aug 2014 #156
