[QUOTE]Originally posted by JeffKardde: [QB] Actually, Omega, I do know what happened. Mr. Thomas was wanted on a warrant. For not wearing a seat belt and things of that nature. Mr. Roach tried to arrest him, Mr. Thomas evaded capture. Even though Thomas was unarmed, Mr. Roach decided deadly force was required and shot him. That's inexcuseable, no matter what. But the simple fact of the matter, and what I'm contending here, is that when a segment of the population (in this case, African-Americans), feels that they are being discriminated against by another group (in this case, the police department), when sometihng like this happens, why are people surprised when there's a riot? It makes no sense for people to be surprised. The city of Cinncinatti KNEW it had a race problem, and especially with its police department. They knew the black population was getting quite ... disturbed? ... with the actions of the Cincinatti police department. What did the city of Cincinatti do? Not enough, obviously. [/QB][/QUOTE]
