I am not going to go over the list of stupid shit I did again.

I will not repeat again that I have also seen my friends shoplift too.
I am sick of this crap of everyone taking MERE EXPLANATION of WHY things end up happening the way they do as advocating lawlessness.
This crap is the same crap I get from theists who mistake the issue of rights with ability to demonstrate credibility of a claim.
1. No one is saying Brown should have stolen the cigars. No one is saying he should have shoved the clerk.
2. No one is claiming Brown had the right to resist Wilson.
When you keep repeating simplistic answers to arguments I am not even making, that means you are stuck on a meme, a fallacy and are not interested in problem solving.

Understanding is the first step to problem solving. Placing blame is not how you problem solve.

You don't have much of a sense of humour do you Brian?

Oh, I know, which makes the posting of that kind of thing all the more fun.
For the record Brian, I agree for the most part, so chill your beans.

With all due respect, stop reciting your experiences with the police and/or violence, it turns people off.
Nobody is impressed, despite you repeating yourself time and again.
