[QUOTE="brett636, post: 1440974, member: 249"] That prosecutor would have to be either very desperate or stupid to arrange the facts in the manner you stated. That is not a very high hurdle to overcome in terms of debate. If your point was the prosecutor could try to ignore basic principles and duties of law enforcement and put forth an argument that would almost certainly be a loser in an actual trial not withstanding surviving a grand jury scrutiny then I suppose you have something there, but its not much to go on. What I find truly sad about your continued support for this Officer's prosecution is the fact that you are trying to make a case out of nothing, and when that happens often enough it starts to overshadow true cases of racism. Instead of taking a case where race had nothing to do with the outcome and trying to make it sound like it did, you save your outrage for cases where it could most definitely apply. Like the trooper in SC that shot a black man at a gas station trying to retrieve his license. I found that completely outrageous. In fact youtube is chock full of police behaving badly videos that would bring anyone's blood pressure up. Why this case where race had exactly 0% connection to the final outcome do you have to put all your energy into trying to convince the world otherwise? [/QUOTE]
