Ferguson is the same thing all over again. A cop being a storm trooper shooting a unarmed black man. Fascism strikes again

Well, in the Oscar Grant case, it was just plain carelessness on the officer's part. In Ferguson, that was a deliberation action on the officer's part. I'd love to see what a story the Ferguson police force is going to come up with to try and justify one of their officers shooting an unarmed man 35 away with his arms in the air. Here's some info about some Ferguson police officers, and how they act:

They are saying Brown came at them with a knife which is a lie but that is their story.

Lol did you read any facts of the case?

They're the same in the sense that both guys deserved what happened. I'm surprised that IMDB is categorizing this as a biography when it's clearly fiction.

I have seen the actual cellphone videos of the event on youtube. Those are not fiction.

He was a criminal that was trying to change his path. He wanted to no longer be a criminal.

There's a big difference! Brown is a thug who just committed strong arm robbery that carries a 15 year prison term! Plus he clearly had an altercation with the officer! Officer Wilson wasn't shooting random blacks for no reason!

I still don't know the exact reason why Grant was stopped by the transit cops. Why was it exactly? Did he really get into a fight with a guy he met in prison?

Jesus NEVER existed! He is Judeo Christian MYTH!

You know whats sad? A black life is only valuable when a white person or cop is the culprit..

A black life is only valuable when a white person or cop is the culprit..

That's because white people and cops aren't punished for it.

It is no different than Fantastic Four that is for sure. One movie a guy gets killed, the other the audience wishes they were killed.

Brown was a thug.
