The 2nd amendment and practical use issue on the original arrest has to dictate our view on this without racial views overshadowing the core issues here at AWRM.

This was over a pocketknife and his "attitude" over a harassment arrest. The pocketknife was relatively openly carried in pocket clip fashion, which a lot,of people interpret as "brandishing". Then what is described as a "switchblade" was according to newer reports, an assisted opening knife. He probably tried to argue that it was a legal knife and they slammed him for it.

Wrongful arrest and summary execution for all of the wrong reasons, and like the Danziger bridge killings, this was perpetrated by blacks in positions of authority who brought their white partners into it then it gets played out as the white racist crime which it was not. That's why Bill Orielly can say what he says and still be called a racist. Oh it is kind of a demographic issue, but we can look back to "police abuse" in the old LAPD rampart scandal and one shallow layer deep, we find it was mostly the work of black bloods gang members using positions of authority to pursue the crips gang along with non aligned independent criminals in the LA are, then who gets most of the blame? White cops. Who really suffers the most retaliatory damage? Non black citizens, investors and business owners. We need to look at two sets of enemies here. Bad government ideologically opposed to liberty and enforcing their wrongful ideology on others, and criminal opportunists hell bent on justifying massive crime sprees. Then we have a few stupid and brutal cops who probably kept their jobs by asserting affirmative action and seniority rights. Those are well paid privileged jobs for that part of the country and everyone knows it. Elite of the street if you will.

Ideologically, we just maintain that this Baltimore thing was the result of an illegitimate arrest.
