How is it that the life of a Dog is worth more than the life of a Black male in America.

Michael Vick was villified across this nation for his so-called Dog Fighting Ring, even senile azz Sen. Robert Byrd had to add his two cents in on the Senate floor. "Barbaric, barbaric, barbaric."

Outrage across America.

I guess what is amazing is that for years and years we watch INNOCENT Black men beaten and gunned downed in the streets and these same people say nothing, as a matter of fact, they will come out and defend the actions of the police.

Look at the murderers of Sean Bell walked away Scott-Free after shooting 3 INNOCENT young black men whom they claimed they heard say, "Go get my gun." Many of you made the claim that they were doing their jobs and he was the one that initiated the whole event, but listened to what the officers LT said about the events:

Napoli testifed in Queens Supreme Court that the officer that set the tragic chain-of-events in motion was Isnora, who called his lieutenant twice after watching Bell and another man engaged in a heated altercation.

Napoli said Isnora's second call was "much more frantic" in nature.

"'We have to get there quick, there's gonna be violence! It's getting hot, it's getting hot. . . I need you here quick!'" Napoli testified. "I said, 'Move in, move in. We're gonna stop the group!' "

In extremely damaging testimony for the defense, Napoli also said he never heard his men identify themselves as police officers and does not recall the undercover cops wearing their shields around their necks.

Napoli said he approached Bell's car afterward the shots were fired, heard someone saying they'd been shot, and asked that an ambulance be called.

Then the stunned cops gathered in the middle of the street.

Why is it that he never heard them identify themselves as cops, could it because they never did.

No outrage why?


Lets go to Philadelphia, PA.

“A half-dozen police officers kicked and beat three men pulled from a car during a traffic stop as a TV helicopter taped the confrontation,” reports the Associated Press. ” The video, shot by WTXF-TV, shows three police cars stopping a car Monday, two days after a city officer was shot to death responding to a bank robbery.”

“The tape shows about a dozen officers gathering around the vehicle. About a half-dozen officers hold two of the men on the ground. Both are kicked repeatedly, while one is seen being punched; one also appears to be struck with a baton.”

“On the surface it certainly does not look good in terms of the amount of force that was used,” Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey said. “But we don’t want to rush to judgment.”

No, of course not, even though the video plainly shows there was absolutely no reason for members of the police gang to savagely beat the three hapless people pictured.

“The officers were responding to a report of a shooting nearby, police said. It was not immediately clear what preceded the confrontation.”

It does not matter “what preceded the confrontation,” as it is obvious the motorists were not a threat. Once upon a time, cops handcuffed and arrested people accused of crimes. Now they are beaten to a pulp.

No outrage why?


Chicago, Ill.

Elijah Henderson, Junior, 18, was arrested Tuesday, along with other members of his family after an incident that began as a traffic violation.
Police say they tried to pull over Henderson's father, Elijah Henderson, Senior, for a seatbelt violation on Tuesday. According to the family, Henderson Senior did not know he was being pulled over so he drove to his home. Elijah Henderson, Junior, was also in the car. That's where officers allegedly used excessive force while making an arrest, according to the family.

Six people- including 14-year-old and 15-year-old girls- were arrested in the incident.
"They beat him in my dining room. His sisters laid on top of him to keep him from being beat. That's when they got charged. They did try to protect their brother, yes, they did," said Rosetta Crawford.
Henderson Junior is accused of striking a police officer. He is charged with aggravated battery to a police officer and is expected to be released on bond. His father faces a seatbelt violation.

Chicago Police Department officials said the recent arrests are under review.
"These are allegations. The matter will be referred to the independent police review authority, who will thoroughly investigate. But right now, we have allegations. There was an incident in the sixth district, but the only thing that we can confirm at this point is that we will look into the matter," said police spokesperson Monique Bond.
"It's not a coincidence that they ran into a black home on the South Side of Chicago with no probable cause," said Lewis Myers, Henderson's attorney.

No outrage.


Lets stay in Chicago.

A federal jury in a civil trial has awarded $4 million to a man whose lawsuit alleged that Chicago police officers assaulted him with a screwdriver during a drug arrest three years ago.

Coprez Coffie, 23, brought the lawsuit against the police and the city, and the jury found both parties liable for monetary damages. The city will evaluate its appeal options.

According to reports, Coffie alleged that he was assaulted in 2004. One officer reportedly sodomized him with the screwdriver while the other officer did nothing to stop him. The incident allegedly occurred in a city alley.

Jurors deliberated for three days before returning their verdict.

This story barely made the news.

No outrage.

The list could go on and on.

Hopefully we will get an Attorney General in Washington that will prosecute these case instead of letting them ride under the radar.

Okay, I see your point. It's the same over here - football players are considered far more important than anything else.

Vick proves my point, all the money in the world could not change the criminal black mentality, It is quite obvious that the black is more trouble than he is worth.

I can remember when the U.S. sent a black female Ambassador to Russia, they would not let her off of the tarmac, they then stated that they did not want her to associate with their citizens.

Why?

They could simply look at The trouble that the black causes in the U.S.(crime and dependency on the sweat of others to survive), for this reason alone I must say that the Russians are more logical than the U.S., what say you?



Second, innocent blacks are usually slain in the streets by the black thug, sbb, your people allow it. Black culture is quite primative, they insist on having a tribal mentality, therefor they should be returned to their original environment, what do you think?

You shouldn't gripe about the lack of outrage when the story just came out. I guess the cop's rage is related to the part I bolded. I wonder if they had some reason to believe that one of these guys was the other wanted guy in that shooting. Something set them off en masse.

I want to know what the cops' story is. If they say they thought the guys were armed or were shooting at them, I will say they are lying. The video shows the cops running up to their car within a couple of seconds of the car stopping. They pulled out the guys and vented their rage for 45-50 seconds. What enraged them?

Found something interesting.
http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5h...qAMnwD90HPC5G1
On Monday, police stopped the suspects' car while investigating a triple shooting in the area. No weapons were found in the car or on the suspects, but officers said they had seen an occupant of the car shoot three people on a drug corner moments earlier, Ramsey has said.

So, is that what cops do when they stop a car suspected of being involved in a shooting moments earlier - they run straight up to the car? I think not, esp. after they just lost one of their own.

That is so untrue. Dogs are worthless (no matter what you hear animal rights activists say) compared to people. Blacks are worth the same as whites, even if that's not what every single person in the US says. You can't force people to think what's right, even if they're racist.

I would not go so far as to say dogs/animals are worthless compared to people. Animals are just as valuble.

Who let the dogs out. It sounds like you should stick to killing whites.

You have topped it SBB. Why do you think it is racist because the vast majority of Americans (including blacks) find it absolutely heinous that Vick brutalized dogs? Next time you find a white football star committing the same crime, the outrage will be the same.

I love dogs so much, it would pleasure me to put a bullet in the head of someone doing that to an innocent dog. They are the lowest form of scum, and that includes al qaeda.

To respond to the rest of your tirade, there are 300+ million people in the US, and you pop out a handful of stories that draw your attention? I don't have the energy or time to post all the speculative stories about any other race, and I am sure there are plenty.

Sean Bell? The cops were found not guilty, two cops were black, end of story. Not racial, get over it.
