If the police can get away with that, what's the point of laws at all? They can just shoot anyone, call it a misunderstanding, and walk away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402752 Tue, 29 Dec 2015 08:52:30 +0000 lawbee11 2402752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tragic :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402600 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 23:19:04 +0000 littlejoy 2402600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The entire story is tragic. I hate that some articles are calling him a teenager. He was 12 ... He was a child. It's like they're trying to make him seem like more of a threat. </p> <p>So sad. Our system, world feels broken. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402585 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 22:53:51 +0000 maddyz 2402585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heart breaking. If that wasn't wrong by the rules we need to change the rules now. This is terrible. He was a child. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402537 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:37:42 +0000 catomd00 2402537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For anyone interested, I just finished between the world and me by Ta-Nehisi Coates and highly recommend it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402536 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:36:10 +0000 ms.line 2402536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's a gd travesty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402534 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:35:40 +0000 catomd00 2402534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's maddening. I have watched that video hundreds of times and cannot wrap my head around it. A few months ago a white kid in my state was seen carrying around his air soft gun, another in a holster and a real knife. He was apprehended without incident. No doubt in my mind had he been black it would have been a much different outcome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402513 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:14:12 +0000 MrsSCB 2402513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and I think it's insane. I don't know how anyone who has seen the video could think the officers should not be indicted. And given one of the officers' previous issues...It's just baffling to me. The prosecutor called it "human error." I'm sorry, but racing your car up to someone you believe is carrying a weapon and shooting him without the chance to drop the alleged weapon (which turned out to not be a weapon at all) is not an "error." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402502 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 21:02:10 +0000 MoonMoon 2402502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think his mother's statement says it all. I can't imagine her pain, compounded by the fact that the system is more about protecting cops than ensuring justice. </p> [attach=4377/15/o03kbm.600x337.Screenshot_2015-12-28-19-58-15.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tamar-rice-officer-not-indicted#post-2402493 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 20:52:33 +0000 Applesandbananas 2402493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did anyone else hear about this? </p>
