A DIFFERENCE IN JUSTICE

Stacy Peterson (born January 20, 1984) went missing on October 28, 2007. She was officially reported missing in the early hours of October 29, 2007, after her sister, Cassandra Cales, failed to hear from her when expected. Drew Peterson claims that Stacy called him at 9 p.m. on Sunday to tell him that she had left him for another man and that she had left her car at Bolingbrook’s Clow International Airport. Drew Peterson is on his forth wife. The last recorded words from Stacy Peterson were left on a voicemail on her father’s answering machine on October 17 at 12:37 P.M., 11 days before she disappeared. The message said, “Hey dad! It’s me, Stacy, I just wanted to call you and tell you I love you. I also wanted to give you my new phone number. OK, love you. White justice and the lack of white leadership is at tip of this problem in the country! White on white crime is under reported and uncheck!The recent story of Caylee is sad, no doubt, but what makes all of these generally white and/or pretty girls’ stories more important than others? Last year many non-white girls in America was missing for awhile yet their face wasn’t plastered all over the news for days. Drew Peterson is a suspect in his wifes death the mother of Caylee Marie Anthony that has been missing since June 9, but her mother Casey Anthony did not report her missing until July 16, five weeks later. Both of these white Americans have not been charge with murder. But are both suspects! The bottom line we as a people are seeing white privilege white racism The White Buddy system and the lack of white leadership hurting WHITE PEOPLE!

If the playing field was level you might have a point. Blacks get criminal records from bullsh*t, whites get warnings. do some research on the prison industrial complex (a for profit prison system run by corporations). See where they lobby congress to pass laws that help their profits. Which results in arrest of minorities. I love my white people but I am not gonna lie we know whats going on. If you don’t open a book or talk to a black person.The issue is why did they shoot period. One shot is bad enough. 50? You sound like Rudy Giuliani who brought up the fact Patrick Dorismond had a juvenillle pot fine After a officer killed him outside a nightclub on his way home after the cop solicited Dorismond for drugs. Dorismond was having a good time out and some guy kept hounding him they get into a altercation the guy shoots him dead. come to find out the guy was a cop looking for a collar who had no knowledge of Dorismond before that night. Come stakeout a white club there are plenty off drugs there to. The man was in his thirties with a family who was minding his own business. Then that bum mayor had Dorismonds SEALED JUVENILLE RECORD OPENED TO JUSTIFY THIS KILLING. D757 stop lying to yourself

All do respect park slope Sharpton didn’t call for riots. This country was built on protest. And police procedure may be when you shoot you shoot to stop which can result in death. but the question is why does this happen so often? Why are police so afraid.You can point fingers but the truth is poverty breeds crime.this happens all over the globe to every race. and its a fact blacks as a population are poor. And why are blacks poor? because of this worlds past policies all over. so now when you have hard working people who are trying to catch up that live in high crime areas with scared cops people become victims of circumstance that the system created. if my partner opens fire my instinct is my partner is in trouble so i shoot at his perceived threat. but in the end he perceived it. How can you say he tried to run over a officer. maybe he saw him as a armed man and didn’t here or see him identify himself. Maybe the policies protect cops from “breaking the law” but there all kinds of laws and policies that need changing. An most important a police officer should not look at his job as a paycheck and benefits. You gotta have some real passion.

I once said to a man if you were educated on a subject you might feel different about it and he said ” education brings arguments” at that point I realized no matter what the facts were he wanted to be on that side of the fence. Are you picking sides or do the facts matter?

I am a black man. I know the officers didn’t murder Sean. but there is a percieved threat when it comes to black men and women. I was born in a small town where people black and white live well together. so I love all people. but it is sad to read some of the comments here. I can’t help but notice some people blaming the victim and looking for reasons to hate. its not about 100 years ago its about now. blacks need to realize there is a different set of rules for them and there always has been. whites get the benefit of doubt regardless. I don’t hate my friends for that but its true and they know it, and they admit it and more. if Al sharpton doesn’t speak up who should ” Wayne Brady”? you would like that wouldn’t you. Why is it racist to point out the bias. Don’t blame his culture for his death its the people who feared his culture who killed him….. fear me please Im scared of you. Your the teacher, Dr., cop with twisted onesided views. I love my country but I don’t gotta love the Govt. What did rev. Wright lie about? do some research. just because you close your eyes doesn’t mean its not there…. The writer who wrote this is very liberal with the facts as a biased cop would be. he just wants to make it home after his shift at all cost. if a unidentified man approaches you gun in hand at 4:00am what would you do. the cop is lucky it was in NYC not PA he would be dead. stricter gun laws in NY saved him. How many of you just said “thank god” . now look in the mirror and say hypocrite.

I can’t stand how everyone against this ruling writes as if Sean took all 50 shots and that is just not true. There were “50 SHOTS FIRED” and some were misses, some hit his friends and some hit Sean. The officers were set free because his friends stories didn’t match. When that happens, you know one of them is lieing if not both. It’s not a racial situation. Having a criminal record is like having a bad credit score. It shows where your priorities are. When someone is acting like a fool in public, talking about beating people up, saying, “get my gun” and trying to run over an officer… bad things are going to happen. Those actions are not a good time, nor are they acceptible. It’s as acceptible as walking into an airport and talking about the bomb in your bag. I’ve had to give that lecture to my daughters boyfriend several times and this is a good example of what I’ve been preaching. Officers put their lives on the line every day to keep everyone safe. They are condemned when they accomplish something and the are condemned if they fail. God bless them all!

Let’s put things in proper perspective. It is never a good thing when a cop kills a civilian. However it is not a good thing either, when a civillian kills a cop. Police have a tremendous burden in deciding at a moments notice whether they or someone else should live or die. It is a balancing act that is second to none. In the case of Sean Bell, had Mr. Bell simply kept his vehicle in park, placed his hands in the air and complied with the officers orders, he no doubt would be alive today. He chose to follow the ways of the streets, from whence he got his training. He chose to risk his life by jeopardizing the lives of the officers. These officers could not determine what was in the mind of Mr. Bell, only that he had a weapon that he was using against him, that being his car. As for Al Sharpton and the other so called “black Leaders”, they should start marching and shutting down the cities where so many of our “black” people our being killed by other blacks. 14,000 murders are committed in this country every year, half of the victims are black. Blacks make up only 13% of the population. I guess Sharpton and his croonies would rather deal with the headache rather than the cancer. Oh well another dollar in Sharpton’s pocket, so that he can live in that all white neighborhood that he is always protesting against. By the way to all the white liberal elitist, please stop telling us who are leaders are. I’ll decide who my leader is. Thank you.

It’s idiots like most of the people who wrote comments here that vote for Bush, believe the world is a few thousand years old, think the troops are fighting for are freedom, think that it’s ok that the average troop makes less than $30,000 a year and the oil contractor’s employees make $14,000 a month, and think that black people and native americans should just get over it. They probably still think the world is flat.
