Alright, so now a few days late to the party, people are already all out:
A facebook exchange on someone's post where he posted the alleged gas station robbery video.
TIESTO: Perosnally, I don't think robbing a gas station for some cigars should be punishable by getting shot to death and having your corpse lying on the ground for 4 hours.
The bankers who executed the biggest ponzi scheme in history in 2008 didn't suffer nearly the same fate (in fact they all got off with a slap on the wrist).
Followed up by:
PERSON 1 No one is saying that's the punishment for that crime. Neither you or I know enough to say what actually happened. Forensics will clear that up. This is simply to show how full of shit the media is that show him in nothing but cap and gown and being a good boy. This shows that he isn't as innocent as the biased news makes him out to be.
TIESTO So only 100% pure angels who have never committed even the most minor crime in their life, hell never done anything remotely morally questionable deserve fair treatment by the cops?
PERSON 2 I'm going to jump in here. People live and die by the choices they make. U think this is the first time this little asshole did something wrong? He clearly has no regard for anyone other than himself. We don't know exactly what happened between him and the cop but it was confirmed that there was a struggle for the cops gun. Guess what, don't go for a cops gun if u don't want to get shot. He's a little gang bang piece of shit who made poor decisions that resulted with his death. And no, it's not a tragic death. He went out trying to "hard" to all his buddies. If we should feel bad for anyone, it should be for the cop. U think the cop went back to the precinct and hi fived all his friends because he shot someone? No! He now has to live with that for the rest of his life. I don't know the whole story, just like everyone else, but if u ask me, the cop did his job. If it's a choice of who goes home at night, guess what, the cop, who probably has a family he loves, is going to make sure it's not a little hang banging punk instead of him. No matter what racist reverend sharpton says, Cops aren't in the business of murdering people. This entire anti-police mentality needs to stop. There are a few bad eggs but there are also hundreds of thousands of good ones, and so far, there's no evidence that this cop wasn't a good one. He did what he had to do.
PERSON 1 There's a difference Tiesto. I've done some morally questionable things in my life at times, but never on the level of just taking shit from a store without paying and strong-arming a store owner. And I know you haven't either. You have to be a piece of shit on a different level to do something like that and I'm tired of the news being biased to the point where they try every trick in the book to make it seem like this guy was a pillar of the community. Enough already. Don't be a punk and you won't find yourself in a position where a cop may draw on you.
All I can say is
I'm from an area where even the democrats are fairly racist (we are one of the most segregated areas in the whole country), and I can't claim innocence from doing stuff my more enlightened liberal brethren would peg as racist i.e. locking doors while driving through a rough part of Hempstead, making fried chicken and watermelon and foedy jokes, etc - but some of this stuff is just too much for me to handle. Their anger at the situation, anger at the protests, it's got such a thick racial undercurrent it's not even funny.
