The Ripley Method is starting to have some appeal...

I will not worry about the situation till it knocks on my door or stops me from providing for my family.
Interesting.
I look though and I see mobs burning flags, throwing Molotov cocktails and disturbing the peace.
So their theme is "hands up - don't shoot"
What if the sign we hold says "Hands up - justice served"
I'm not advocating for violence or to make it racial but if the grand jury exhonorates the officer what more can be done?
This is stupid. I want to know how old this thug was in the little boy photos they are using of him like they did with Trayvon.
Talk about double standards and hypocrisy.
I haven't really gotten a clear picture about what happened between the officer and the subject.
So how did all these 'protestors' get enough facts to come to a conclusion that there is anything to protest? Where does the certainty come from, I have to wonder? I'm far from certain.
Is it fair to indict the innocent in order to placate what is essentially a lynch mob?
So the "unarmed" moniker is not accurate- many people have died from strangulation or being beat to death with fists, and there was a report that someone was trying to get the officer's gun away from him.
Hopefully the prosecutor's office will do a good job of furnishing the facts, which have been in much too short supply, and the lack of which continues to make things worse.
It looks like if it was the same as Oregon law, once the Molotov Cocktail came out, deadly force could be used. The limitation would be that the MC would have to reasonably be expected to be thrown at a building, not just a lawn, sidewalk, or driveway. Reference: ORS161.225.
It would be nice if someone had more specific information on this.
