    How dare those race card pulling animals cry about the word thug even though this stuff has been going on too much...

    Yes, I'm sure some of your best friends are black.

    Ryan Mallet has a thug tattoo? Well, that changes everything.

    There aren't enough good cops calling out and reporting bad cops.

    The union shouldn't always defend cops. But I guess that's what unions do.

    also the way they pin their knee into the person's spine is very dangerous. gray probably broke his neck during the arrest and the rough van ride and not giving him help even after stopping. what bothers me about some of the guys are refusing to let go of their side.. oh man this seems over the top, oh come on we need more facts etc. like what world are you living in? its like mavs fan who keep complaining about the 1st round loss to the rockets.

    this is the head prosecutor charging the cops. she makes a really good case for why the charges are so severe.

    I'll take that as a no on the do you have any white friends question. Barkley and Bill Maher are some go to sources for you as well? There were white thugs long before there were black thugs. A thug is a thug, stop trying to make it racial.

    Of course I have no white friends, white people are incredibly hard to find in America... like diamonds in the rough. It's even rarer to find a white person like yourself that's always crying about racism towards whites and then shows up in threads like these to mock.

    The more you post the more I realize you're just a knucklehead. You asked for sources, I gave you sources. Read the material and respond or just shut up.

    It goes to show how out of touch the black community is with middle class white Americans and vice versa. Neither groups understand each other and have effectively demonized each other over the past two-three police brutality events.

    Its pretty sad that its come to this, full on riots. Racism is not dead in America people.
    Police corruption and racism is a serious problem. Its one thing if a bunch store owners in Indiana want to deny service to gays or minorities or whatever. Its another thing if bigots like that have complete authority over you.

    I'm not kidding at all, I'm not real big on jumping to conclusions without a proper amount of evidence. The whole thing sounds fishy, but until more evidence comes out, it's pretty hard to say for sure what happened.

    Could it have all been police brutality? Absolutely, but that assumption has made a lot of people look really stupid in the recent past.

    Ryan Mallet is a horrible example...Lol. He falls more in line with white guys like Paul Wall and Lil Wyte.

    And just in reference to the "THUG" tattoo... Tupac made that tattoo popular in the 90's and "THUG" is an abbreviation for "the hate u give" https://youtu.be/QCEf557fNYg
    So to Mallet that thug tattoo may mean something different than what the poster may think because it's an abbreviation for other things as well.

    He was a bad example because he really wasnt, just self proclaimed, he was more of a punk but I hope he's matured since then. Do you agree that the word thug is the new n word? I consider a thug as a low life who victimizes innocent people.

    The words "thug" and "ghetto" are code words in many ways. You won't hear folks say "don't be a n^*^%." .... But you will hear "Don't be ghetto" or "He is a thug",,,, be black and fail to confirm to WASP culture and be labeled as a ghetto thug. Not that the same folks won't also call poor white people "white trash" but you atleast don't hear it on television or the radio.
