Remembering the “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” Hoax (Poster)

By Nicholas Stix

Just yesterday, at an article about the fatal police shooting of Samuel DuBose, a cop-bashing commenter actually tried to revive the “Hands up, don’t shoot!” hoax in that case, asserting that DuBose had his hands up, when he was shot. I responded, “No, you diin’t!”

The encounter between Brown and the cop was referred to as a "brief scuffle". NO, Brown was trying to kill the cop. Any time you try to get the cops gun you are saying whether you realize it or not: "I am trying to kill you!!"

You can get the video on the WOODTV.com website.Police finally announced today that this happened a week ago.White guy walking downtown captured on video gets assaulted, kicked and beaten by a gang of blacks, mugging in the camera.Police trying to downplay it and are looking for help in ID'ing them.I think they still have the video up...its been on TV...

I'd already gone to the Web site, before making my previous comment.

Some bloggers are saying he asked for it...at that hour 1 white guy walking by that many afros is not smart...what do you think of this incident? Thats my hometown that is going down the drain quickly.Used to be a good city.We had two shootings a week earlier on a street I used to walk down when I was a kid.Now its driveby territory.10 gunshots into a house 1 block away from where two people were shot 2 nights earlier.I was called a racist for giving my views and got many comments deleted.I told them censorship is not a solution.

Police are trying to decide if it was a hate crime...first it was one white guy they chose to beat up.Second, someone had a camera ready to videotape it...meaning it was probably premeditated..just the person to be beaten up was the only detail to be decided.Fortunately the man was not killed or seriously injured...but I don t know how.
