63. I'll say it. You're a racist.

After reading your claim, I watched the first 15 seconds of the video over and over on a large monitor. His right hand goes below the level his white shirt, and about one second later, he's dead. As he was being murdered, his right hand is not distinguishable from his pants in the video. For you to say that this was justified when a) he was 12 years old and b) he had no time to do anything at all, and c) you absolutely cannot tell if he is reaching in his waistband or not, well, these things make you a racist.

And since my post will certainly be alerted on, and since I've had hides in the past where I had partially pulled my punch in an attempt to keep the post from being hidden, I want to make sure and not make that mistake again. If this post is subject to a hide, then let's do it right. Without further ado, Fuck you, you right-wing, racist authoritarian-licking piece of filth. I detest people who possess your lack of character, your fear-based hatred, and your desire to see dead minority children. I'll take my hide now, Zippy. Get alerting.
