is what he's done since he spent a lot of time calling mike brown a thug and excusing his murder and attacking fergusson protestors and BLM. that will add to the attacks from the local louisiana radio blowhards, pollute any jury pools, and intimidate judges

in louisiana, LSU 2, La.-Monroe 1 support 3 limbaugh stations by broadcasting sports on them and they have no excuse not to start looking for apolitical aternatives

all of those stations have followed limbaugh in attacking BLM for years and those universities, like 86 others around the country supporting 260 or so limbaugh stations, need to be protested

I disagree, Honeycombe. BLM should not be held responsible for a rogue individual's action. Nitram Apr 2019 #9
Maybe the trial court will find that. But the appeal is about whether he has rt to sue the organizr. Honeycombe8 Apr 2019 #10
There is a difference between peaceful and non-violent protest, and a murder. Nitram Apr 2019 #13
Isn't that what people here on DU do every time there's an officer-involved shooting? Jedi Guy Apr 2019 #14
Police officer is an occupation, but more than that, they are an organization... Humanist_Activist Apr 2019 #16
That's almost word for word what the bigots say about African-Americans. Jedi Guy Apr 2019 #19
Races don't have organizations like police unions or departments that provide cover.... Humanist_Activist Apr 2019 #21
Okay, so you're just going to harp on that one thing? Jedi Guy Apr 2019 #23
You are the one who made the comparison, it breaks down due to the things I mentioned. Humanist_Activist Apr 2019 #24
I don't agree with broad brush thinking at all. That's kind of the point I'm making here. Jedi Guy Apr 2019 #25
The police are a close-knit group with their own culture of unwritten rules. They have the support Nitram Apr 2019 #28
None of which is the least bit relevant to the point I'm making about broad-brush thinking. N/T Jedi Guy Apr 2019 #29

If he can sue BLM, then BLM should be able to sue the police force for each murder of an unarmed Nitram Apr 2019 #8

Well individual police officers should be sued for their own misconduct, thats only fair, right? Nt Humanist_Activist Apr 2019 #22
Should have sued MLK for Selma crazytown Apr 2019 #20
That precedent should be bad for Rump and his white rights fans. Mc Mike Apr 2019 #26
