Thanks for the clarification. Ken Burch Nov 2014 #4
Customers called police, and I think the report of the cigars being paid for was debunked. Hoyt Nov 2014 #5
Exactly! onecaliberal Nov 2014 #9
This is what I thought as well. Agschmid Nov 2014 #10
If the store owner didn't call the cops, the customers shouldn't have. Ken Burch Nov 2014 #26
Unfortunately, it was a little more than that and had he been arrested for that Hoyt Nov 2014 #29

So you suggest that no shoplifter be apprehended? Wow amazing. Nt Logical Nov 2014 #11
No...I'm saying no shoplifter should ever be killed by the cops Ken Burch Nov 2014 #24
I 100% agree with you. But calling the police should not be a death sentence. nt Logical Nov 2014 #32
you dont think the cops should be called for theft and assault? Travis_0004 Nov 2014 #12
The store owner said there WAS no theft and no assault. Ken Burch Nov 2014 #23
Why call the cops? IF he did that? maced666 Nov 2014 #13
Sorry, a pack of Swichers is much safeinOhio Nov 2014 #17
The store owner said he paid for the Swishers(which were closer to $5, not $50) Ken Burch Nov 2014 #18
they call the cops for white people too, FYI Skittles Nov 2014 #14
And yet white people would never be killed for petty theft. Not anywhere. Ken Burch Nov 2014 #21
Please mail me 50 bucks of your property. Travis_0004 Nov 2014 #15
Not worth killing for, no. Ken Burch Nov 2014 #20
BS. A white kid would not be given a warning by the cops ANYWHERE for stealing $50. former9thward Nov 2014 #25
At most, the white kid would spend an hour at the cop shop, and be home for supper. Ken Burch Nov 2014 #27
If you are Black even petty larceny is punishable with death. Odin2005 Nov 2014 #16
I don't know anybody who's claimed that the initial stop was about the cigars Recursion Nov 2014 #19
Not too many here are interested in any actual unbiased evidence. n/t Lil Missy Nov 2014 #30
Somebody robs you of $50 and you are supposed to ignore it? former9thward Nov 2014 #22
It's not as though there's no options other than "ignore it" or "pop twelve caps in his ass over it" Ken Burch Nov 2014 #28
white people are indeed killed by police Skittles Nov 2014 #31
