Fernando,
Thanks for your feedback. I don't criticize the person who disagrees with me; however,I do point out certain flaws in their logic.
I just watched the videotape again andMarquisedid use two hands to point the phone like it was a gun, but the other officer had his arm and was standing right next to him, while he jerked away and walked off. The officer who grabbed Marquise knew it wasn't a gun. The officer was ducking as Marquise walked away (with his back to him). He was crouching when he shot him! The second time Marquise turned he pointed with one hand and I didn't see a phone in that hand at that time. That's when it appeared that he was pointing while talking.
Bottomline question: Would you shoot someone who is drunk with a cell phone, and walking away from you? If the answer is yes, then I can't understand that type of logic. It was dark; true enough, but the man was walking away from the cops. Shooting him in the back 8 times was cold blooded MURDER!
If you can't support a boycott of Louisiana, that is your right as an individual, but the fact remains that things won't get better until we stand up against this sort of evil. Al Sharpton knows more facts than any of us and he supports a boycott.
