Antonio Martin killed by police in

[StrapOnFetus]

Just happened a few hours ago. Here's the stream: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/stackizshort

I can't find much about it yet other than that Antonio Martin was an 18-year-old unarmed black man. His body is still on the ground. The crowd is looking at it.

Ferguson police have showed up, tear gas and flash bangs have been fired upon civilians, police refusing to give there badge numbers and names, it is all out war, and this will only get worse

The stream looks pretty civil to me.

Sure there's gonna be an all out war over there?

If they keep rioting like the idiots they are they're gonna run out of buildings to burn. Then they'll all be homeless and without so much as a wallgree-

Oh yeah, they already burned down their wallgreens. And Mcdonalds. And toys-r-us.

Could be a lot worse. I missed most of the stream, but there are no discernible riots or violence or anything like that.

I see a lot of jokes going on here, godamn where is your humanity. The police are public servants, and when they over take there power and boundarys and take away your rights. Let us see how many jokes you will crack then,

Earlier in the stream the mother showed up to confirm her son was dead.

Just before I was an itch in my daddy's pants, in a city near me in the early 1970's, the cops cordoned off the areas where looting was taking place, letting no one in. After a while, they ran out of things to destroy, got tired... that's when all the civil servants went in, and in force, to pick up the pieces, put the remaining fires out :\

I hate everything

[StrapOnFetus]

I feel tension, goon squad about to make a move...

Unarmed doesnt mean someone is not a threat. I think we are not asking the real question. What provoked them to shoot him?

Apparently, him and his friend "looked like armed robbery suspects". Soooooo, basically they were profiled.

[NGPulp]

This shit sure is getting way outta hand.
It's also awfully and terribly absurd.

[Teddiikun]

The problem with the police force is getting out of hand. Obviously they are abusing their authority and they will continue to do so

[supergandhi64]

i pray that the killings will stop. in this day and age there's no excuse for this kind of barbarism. if we can't value and respect the sanctity of a human life then we're no better than animals and i mean this in the most offensive way possible

There's a catch. It's meant in the most offensive way possible. Now what would be the most offensive way?

[SithCorduroy]

I hate senseless riots that do nothing but cause property damage, but then again I hate cops abusing their power.

This is too hard for me. Back to video games.

Supposedly he was pointing a pistol at the cop, although the Cop said mistakes were made and didn't turn on the bodycam he was issued, and he didn't use his Tazer he had.

[Feelbone]

ugh, cops saying there were "mistakes"

at least its better than blaming it all on the kid but hey wait a few days, the news will find something to uncover

literally two miles away from ferguson? i have a lot of doubt in that

Indeed, whenever something happens, people tends to jump to conclusions before the full story is revealed. Right now, we have no idea what it was.

[Amaranthus]

Do all American black people have a hivemind or something?

[Monster-64]

St Louis police have released a surveillance video of the final seconds before a black teenager was shot on Tuesday night, saying it shows the moment when the teen raised and pointed a handgun at the officer, who then killed him.

Good riddance to the gang banger. He's an idiot.
EDIT: Here's the article.

It doesn't matter what you "feel". What matters are facts, and there is security footage from the gas station.

hopefully that will shed some light on this

Also, why does the location matter? St. Louis is a city, and cities have crimes sometimes. Is it that unbelievable?

no but theres a lot of tension in the community, crime or not. i just dont see any sensible person actually pulling a gun on armed officers when tension is high, especially around st louis.

of course, i have no idea who martin was or how he reacted, so theres a good chance im wrong. again, lets hope the security footage from the gas station that shows the shooting will at least clear some questions
