Damn, that's crazy. The fact that he was looking for help from the police is the worst part.
Nigger jogs towards you, unload your whole magazine in his face. It's pussy cops, man. Warriors used to be fearless and even embrace death; stabbing people through the heart in hand to hand combat.
Now we pay whoever isn't a convicted felon $30,000 to drive around with a gun and harass poor people.
I don't know that race relations have gotten 'worse' (from when?). They've always been pretty shit.
Certainly there's something up.

Protestors were taking the streets Friday evening and night to protest the lack of conviction of a white police officer who shot an unarmed black person in 2013 who was charging him.
Protesters were marching down Tryon street around 7:00 PM Friday evening in Uptown Charlotte, NC, chanting that they wanted justice and they wanted it now. One black protester with a megaphone even criticized me as I was walking down the street to run some errands for being white.
Has race relations gotten worse in the United States in the last several years? What has caused this?
What are your thoughts on this trial?

Two years after a deadly struggle in the dark of night and three weeks into an emotionally charged trial, jurors said Friday they were hopelessly deadlocked, an outcome that satisfied neither side in the polarizing case of a white police officer charged with killing an unarmed black man.
The jury was unable to unanimously decide whether Charlotte-Mecklenburg police Officer Randall “Wes” Kerrick used excessive force in firing 12 shots at Jonathan Ferrell, who charged at him moments after police encountered him walking near a neighborhood pool.
Eight jurors were for acquittal and four for conviction, according to someone close to the proceedings.
Within moments of the mistrial, about a dozen protesters, whites and blacks, lay down with hands behind their backs and blocked traffic outside the courthouse on Fourth Street, chanting “No justice, no peace.”
As darkness fell, loud but orderly street protests – the most passionate seen in Charlotte since the Democratic National Convention three summers ago – erupted in the streets of uptown, outside the courthouse, near the BB&T Ballpark where the Knights were playing and at the Charlotte Transportation Center.
At around 9 p.m., close to 100 protestors gathered near where police had stopped them from entering the ballpark where a game was underway. The scene became tense, as people inside the ballpark and protesters outside yelled at each other through the fence.
