Officer Wilson not indicted in killing of Michael Brown

by Simon in

after a thorough investigation and weighing of the evidence the grand jury has decided not to indict the officer.. the reaction so far seems as predicted - people refuse to accept that the result represents justice despite claims that is what they wanted.. there is now violence and vandalism, including gunshots.

let's hope the police contain the troublemakers.. .

pacopoolio - Interesting story about your experience with police. What led up to those things though? Did you question or not listen or anything? Did they say get out of the car and you asked why vs just doing it, etc?

Anyway in the area I live in, the past few years almost each year a police officer has been killed on duty. Even on basic traffic stops too. Each time an officer pulls somebody over or approaches for any reason, their is a chance that that person will be armed and will attempt to kill them. Some officers may be power hungry aholes, but sometimes the aggression can be because any resistance increases their chances that this stranger may be dangerous.

The crime statistics are not the stop and search misdemeanors, etc, the FBI posts crime statstics annually and broken down by race, gender, etc, for all crimes from theft, robbing, to drunkedness, etc. Blacks are over 50% for all theft/robbery crimes. They are far below average for drunk crimes, whites are top for that. Asians are the lowest in everything.

Was justice served fairly in the Micheal Brown tragedy, whats your opinion ?

by Finkelstein in

the michael brown tragedy has garnered a lot of attention in the media recently highlighted.

by the recent county court decision to not indict the lone officer who did the shooting which caused the death of micheal brown.. .. now after more information of the event has been released openly to the public, we can evaluate upon are self.

in are own opinion toward was the law handed out in this particular event proportionately fair or to a professional standard ?.

There are pictures showing the officer's bruises from being attacked. The jury got all the evidence and facts. According to laws of this country justice was served. If story as officer describes was not a lie, then I side on him. No doubt that Michael attacked him, the only doubt is if in the end he put hands up to stop. As soon as he attacked the officer, he signed his own death warrant. If the first bullet in the car killed him there would have been no contest to anything.

Now THIS CASE below......the big black man who died after a chokehold, I think people should have been charged. Not sure what happened to them but they handled this situation really badly. First he was very upset, he was trying to be respectful even though not cooperating on being arrested, the guy shouldn't have chocked him, his very overweight and should of let him breathe and got off right away, and seems didn't even try cpr or anything when he was dying. And he wasn't a drug dealer or anything, just selling cigarettes illegally or untaxed.

Here is what I think is the real issue, based off of these facts.....

1. Michael Brown's father AND SUPPORTERS mention an assassination of Michael Brown's character and attack on his character.

2. 50% of black males have criminal records and black males commit over 50% of all burg/theft crimes.

Now my thoughts. How exactly was Michael Brown's character assassinated? Did anybody make him steal from the store, and strong arm the store clerk? Did anybody make him attack and punch the police officer? So were they supposed to be quiet about that so they could claim he was just a good boy who never did nothing?

OR

Are those things normal and expected of everybody and every good boy does those things but mentioning it publically is wrong? Since all the supporters are taking revealing those facts as an attack on his character, that tells me that to them it's perfectly acceptable to steal, rob, attack somebody who tells you what to do even police (get out of the road), etc.

So that 50% + of the population of the black community feel that they have a right to steal, rob, and do whatever they want. If a black cop killed him there would have been no problem, but how dare a 'white' cop interfere and when he ends up dead, he is off.

They are rioting for their right to steal and rob whenver they want, and is shown by the looting and burning going on. And many of them don't care about michael brown, they just see a chance to rob and steal amidst the protests for an easier way to not get caught.

Now the other 30/40% law abiders are just being silent on the issue because if they chime in then these criminal protestors will attack them too and they'll be called traitors to their people, etc.

Then the news, Obama, and the stupid used car saleman sharpton, and james riling everyone up too to get more money.

Scientific explanation of how spirit creatures could materialize

in my science class book i was just reading about particles and antiparticles.. i'll just quote a few parts, "every type of particle in nature must also have an alter ego, an antiparticle........one fascinating property of particle-antiparticles pairs is that if you bring such a pair together, the two particles will annihilate each other......when the pair annihilates, the mass of the two particles is converted into energy which is carried away by a pair of photons.....the reverse is also possible, two photons may collide to produce a particle and it's antiparticle-by a process called pair production.. so assuming spirit creatures are made of energy, there is a scientific explanation of how energy can become physical mass, and physical mass to energy.

whether you believe they exist or not, i thought that was an interesting read and a way to explain how they could materialize and de-materialize.. .

Here are some lyrics and how I relate it.

My lover's got humour
She's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval
I should've worshiped her sooner (WHOLE VERSE ABOUT perhaps a spouse who left first and shunned by all, and now the other spouse who finally left should have supported them long ago)

If the heavens ever did speak
She's the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
A fresh poison each week (The GB say they are the 'mouthpiece' of God. This persons other is who revealed TTATT. Each week new light, 'poison' from the GB)

[Chorus 2x:]
Take me to church (take me to the kingdomhall)
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies (I'll worship like a dog at the stage of your lies)
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife (Tell your sins to the elders so they can sharpen their knife and disfellowship)
Offer me that deathless death (disfellowshipping and shunning is a deathless death)
Good God, let me give you my life

Drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Something meaty for the main course
That's a fine looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful (while the R@F are in poverty the GB are living in luxury traveling the world first class)

Scientists Should Not Dismiss Genesis So Quickly

by Chris Tann in

nasa discovery proves the bible scientifically accurate.

the debate.

for decades there has been a long standing debate between science and religion as to the validity of the biblical genesis account of creation.

EndofMysteries

I think what he means is he is looking for discussions with ex jw believers in creation or ex jw's / christians. (like minded)

Why do "Awake" vloumes only start at 1970 on computer disk?...interesting!

by Witness 007 in

yet watchtowers go way back to 1950's....i picked up three awake volumes 1967-1969 i was struck by the poor science {aluminium is posion}, demon articles and anti-organ transplant articles.

also much was said about 1975 being the end of the system and "the generation.

" it feels like fred franz was writting alot of these which now is plain embarrasing and better left un-published.. .

The aluminum may have been true, not sure what they were saying about it, but many recent studies link aluminum to many memory and and mental disorders.

Eventually, the WT may teach that we are in the 1,000 year reign NOW.

by EndofMysteries in

i wouldn't be surprised if one day the wt says we are in the 1,000 year reign now.

show scriptures how nothing is shown that people are living forever or not dying during the 1,000 year reign.

scriptures how the finale of gog of magog in ezekiel is by fire coming from heaven to consume the armies and how it was to show the world his return, etc.

EndofMysteries

For reason no intense persecution, etc.... they will say that satan was imprisoned in 1914. The wars and problems now are just imperfect humanity. The reason JW's are free and no intense persecution is because the 1000 year reign they have peace and able to preach freely, but at the end of the 1,000 year reign is when they are attacked.

(this is all hogwash ofcoarse but goes to show how easy to manipulate scriptures, like Rutherford did to apply all of revelation to himself, etc)

1969 awake, " Awake! 1969 May 22 p.15 ***

If you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things. Why not? Because all the evidence in fulfillment of Bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years. Of the generation that observed the beginning of the 'last days' in 1914, Jesus foretold: 'This generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur.' Therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers. If you are in high school and thinking about a college education, it means at least four, perhaps even six or eight more years to graduate into a specialized career. But where will this system of things be by that time? It will be well on the way towards its finish, if not actually gone! This is why parents who base their lives on God's prophetic Word find it much more practical to direct their young ones into trades that do not require such long periods of additional schooling… True, those who do not understand where we are in the stream of time from God's viewpoint will call this impractical. But which is really practical: preparing yourself for a position in this world that soon will pass away? or working toward surviving this system's end and enjoying eternal life in God's righteous new order?"
