DUmbass posted a bunch more pics like the ones above. What a jagoff.

I'll sum it up in one easy to understand phrase: "Disobey cops".

[DumbAss Tanker]

Can't wait for all that shit to load, but I'm guessing neither "Playing stupid games and winning stupid prizes" nor "Clogged arteries from too many jumbo fries bought with your EBT card" weren't in there.

I want to know who has time to produce these silly memes?

Were an accurate list, sorted by number of deaths, made, overuse of knife, fork, and spoon, and black thugs would be near the top, with cops, white thugs, and white supremacists much, much, farther down.

[Maverick1987]

You've got to hand it to Mrs. Corpio - he never tires of his own shtick.  What a miserable existence.

[USA4ME]

Really?!? Com'n!

I bet there's at least 24.

9. Mario Woods stabbed a random person

He then pulled out a knife when officers tried to arrest him for doing so.

The photo caption says that all Mario Woods was doing was walking away from the police.

10. Oh, so those are both death penalty offenses? Well, okay then.

I must have missed the memo that appointed arresting officers judge, jury and executioner for anyone who commits these particular death penalty offenses.

And after all, a guy in street clothes with a knife can kill a fully-trained, fully-equipped law enforcement officer instantly so even if they weren't sure he'd committed the death-penalty offenses, lethal force was totally justified.

 in case anyone can't figure it out...

Knives aren't dangerous?  What the hell is this idiot primitive babbling about?  TygrBright?  More like TygrDim.

Look, Light-not-so-bright,  you (perp) are threatening me (cop) with deadly force (knife).  Normally, the  explanation should not have to go beyond that point for sentient humans. 

The f*ck is your problem, retard?

Attack the cops gets you dead even faster.

And I suppose all the blacks on the show Cops are innocent as well. Illegal warrants, running from the cops, resisting arrest, illegal possession of firearm... that is all just made up shit for the camera dummies?   

Dummies are inherently racist.  If the blacks, and by extension the hispanics did not vote for the dems the dummies would be cheering anytime someone of those demographics got sent off to their final reward.  You know it as well as I do dummies.

Dummies and dems are the biggest racists in the world.

I recently took my county's Concealed Carry upgrade to my NYS Pistol License.  Most of the class was about Section 35 of the NYS Penal Code, which covers the justification of the use of force.  Wow!  The best action that a CC holder can take in NYS is to emulate Brave Sir Robin, if they can.  If they can't, they better be able to justify their actions.

Sandra Bland was the one who hanged herself in jail. She couldn't make a very moderate bail, and her family didn't help her. Even if her arrest were improper - of which I've seen no proof - there is no way the relevant police officers could foresee that she would commit suicide. As for 24-hour surveillance of prisoners, run that idea by the ACLU before posting something so silly.

Philando Castile was pulled over because he resembled one of the perps in a recently reported robbery. While Castile supposedly informed the officer that he had a gun, as he moved his hand toward his right leg and hip (disobeying the officer's instruction after he said he had a gun), the gun was visible, near his hand, and the officer shot him.

Ramarley Graham was in a residence the police had been surveiling, and entered that evening to make arrests. The officer encountered Graham in a hallway and instructed Graham to show his hands. Instead, Graham ducked into his bathroom, and when the officer next saw him, he appeared to be reaching into his waistband.

Eric Garner was selling cigarettes illegally, and the police attempted to arrest him. Garner resisted, and his heart and respiratory system couldn't sustain the strain of his struggling.

Oscar Grant and another person were being arrested by BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) police after a fight on a BART Train. Grant resisted the officers, and after saying he was going to tase Grant, the officer drew and fired his gun. The officer was convicted of involuntary manslaughter, and found not guilty of second degree murder and voluntary manslaughter. On one hand, the meme MrS posted left out a lot of relevant facts; on the other, one of those relevant facts, the officer's conviction, seems to me to have been correct, based on what the prosecution could prove.

The Gregg Gunn case happened just this past March, and the officer has been charged with murder. Apparently Gunn was walking home at night in his neighborhood when the officer stopped him. A struggle between Gunn and the officer ensued which lasted for the length of a block - in which Gunn evidently used a metal painter's pole he had been carrying and the officer tased him - and the officer shot Gunn. The officer reported that he did so when Gunn took a position in preparation to attack him.

So, yeah, the meme MrS posted leaves out so many relevant facts that it is nothing more than a lie crafted to deceive. "oberliner" pointed out that the same designed deceit was true of another person cited by MrS's meme.

That makes shooting her all the more bad! (/blm "logic")

H5! Awesome rebuttal of it! Lies, and taking things out of context, are all that the far left have!

I seldom wander into DU, but if the 6 cases I checked and the case "oberliner" looked into are a good sample, the other 16 "ways" a black person "can be killed in America" are similar deceptions. A "cause" that has to rely on slander and deceit needs to be crushed with facts.

1. Join a gang.
2. Deal drugs.
3. Steal a gun.
4. Carry a stolen gun.
5. Beat your baby mother.
6. Shoot a rival gang member.
7. Shoot a rival gang member's family.
8. Shoot at police officers.
9. Hang out with Gang members.
10 Hold up convenience stores.
11. Break in to houses.
12. Rape armed women.
13. Attack armed people.
14. Riot or loot.
15. Go after people that disrespect you.
16. Sell stolen property.
17. Play the knock out game.
18. Make fake hate crime charges.
19. F*ck another black man's baby mothers.
20. Say some shit to to another black man.
21. Snitch on another black man.
22. Refuse to live in civilized society because it is white.
23. Play stupid games.

I can play this all day long. My reasons are 99% of why black males aged 12-55 are killed. MrsScorpio's are less than 1%.

I found this convoluted bullshit in a Rolling Stone article:

We'd call it murder if a kidnapping victim died of fright during the job. Of course it's not legally the same thing, but a woman dying of depression during an illegal detention should be the same kind of crime. It's especially true given our long and sordid history of overpolicing misdemeanors.

Cute quasi-legal (faux-legal?) theory. Problem is, there never was any determination/finding that Bland's arrest was illegal. Wikipedia's article makes the officer who stopped her out to have been an A-hole, and he may have been. The key point in the mess was when he ordered her to get out of her car. Bland chose to argue, and arguing devolved into physical resistance. At some point in the mess a second, female, officer arrived. IF that officer observed Bland resist physically (the first officer said she kicked him), then her arrest was fully appropriate, even if the first officer had been an A-hole.

Bottom line, Rolling Stone's quasi/faux legal theory is based entirely on something that wasn't the case. Not that facts matter in ProgLand.
