In reply to the discussion: Antonio Martin, Black Teenager, Fatally Shot By Police 2 Miles From Ferguson: Report [View all]Feral Child
(2,086 posts)Just your comment regarding pipoman's statement about responding to "alarms". At the time he posted that (and suggested that DUers are in, his vulgar terms, "couch taters"
he was responding directly to the OP and deliberately misrepresented the "routine business check".
So, whether you routinely take the side of the police or not, he has us bickering; that's exactly what trolls want, to disrupt discussion.
I'm sorry if you thought I was referring to the videos in your post, I was not, nor do I consider them dishonest.
I was ONLY referring to your assumed support of a trolling, dishonest post. As I've said several times, at the time he posted, the only information we had was that the officer was making a routine check. If you were not supporting his remark at that time, then we've misunderstood each other completely and for that I apologize.
If you'd like to delete this subthread, I'll agree. It seems to have gotten off-topic. If you insist that he was correct in making that statement at the time he did and with the limited information at his disposal, I have to let it stand. His post was dishonest, and his only defense of it was some school-boy taunting, he did not retract or excuse his lack of veracity whatsoever.
