Weird Walter Scott

There seem to be an awful lot of weirdnesses about the Walter Scott case.  Overall, I would say that he is screamingly guilty of a number of crimes but probably did not deserve to be shot in the back several times.

First off, the cop seemed to be very polite to Walter Scott.  Some criticize the cop for pulling him over, but that is extremely weird:  Scott had no insurance and no registration! Bingo. I would say that was a pretty good call by the cop.

But when Walter Scott got out of the car and started running away, that was really like screaming "I AM A CAR THIEF!!!" at the top his lungs.  That was about the stupidest thing I have seen in my entire life.

It actually makes me think that Walter Scott was either stoned or just plain crazy.  Of course, maybe WS knew that he was going to jail for sure, so he just freeked out and ran.  Of course he also knew about the outstanding warrant on his head for $18,000 in child support.

Then to make matters worse, he resists arrest and fights with the cop.  Bad move. You don't fight with cops.  People who fight with cops are definitely violent and dangerous.

I fail to understand why on earth so many black groups support Walter Scott so much.  He obviously wasn't innocent and he was also the biggest idiot on planet earth.  Running away on foot?

If Walter Scott had even half a brain, he would taken off in the car.  He should have known that he didn't have a chance running away on foot.  But in a car, especially a stolen one, he might give the cop the slip.  Plus its a lot easier.

And what about the guy in the car with him?  He says that he wasn't watching what happened when WS ran away.  WTF?!  This crazy nutcase leaves the car and starts running and the guy in the car does not think that it is worthwhile paying attention?!  If he wasn't lying, then he must have been stoned out of his mind!  How do you not pay attention to THAT?

But one thing that annoys me about the Walter Scott case is this idea that ALL cops are running around murdering poor, sweet, innocent black felons for no reason at all.  I think that that is hardly the case.

Plus, cops know that if they kill a black dude, its going to be a national event and they're going to get crucified.  But if they kill a white dude, at least a poor and powerless one, nobody will give 2 flying figs.
