Why is the black community angry the black officers in the Sean Bell shooting were not wrongfully convicted?

what are you just saying?

Do you think it's acceptable to shoot a man 50 times and he wasn't even armed??

This is not a race thing. this is a victim thing. If he was white black Hispanic it would still be wrong.

But if the man was white, I don't think they would of shot him 50 times. at all for that matter.

The cops said they feared for their lives? It's crap. That man wasn't even armed or dangerous.

And they are not guilty of anything?

One cop shot him 31 times. 31. For what?

Angry, I wouldn't say "WE" are angry, feed up, now that would be a better definition. The "Black Community" has seen it's children killed time and time again, and no one has been held accountable for the deaths of "our" children. How many times have we lost another baby, under 30, to the hands of the NYPD? We aren't angry because in some ways, we have come to know that this will be the final say. But in all and all, not one "Black" Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, has acted liked the Caucasian male when his son was in the wrong, on a man's property in a group, that would have been considered a gang had they been Black. Justice, one day it will come, will it be in my life time, I would hope so, but I won't hold my breath. You can kill as long as you have a NYPD badge, kill as many and as often as you can, you have a NYPD badge, Mr. Bell and his family and friends who were celebrating his transition from singleness to husbandry, weren't thugs, they were some one's son, brother, fiancee', father and friend, they were people and should not be treated any less than so, fair, it wasn't, fair, it doesn't seem like fairness or justice it will ever come, but, in all, we still Pray. Maybe, just maybe, when they start taking the lives of other race's babies, then, we will pray together, but until then, the Black Community will continue to pray collectively and individually. God Bless.

Things don't get justified that easily. Were they correctly acquitted? i don't know ... obviously the judge had enough evidence to prove so. I just wish that indeed anytime a judge or a jury make a decision that goes against a black person ,,, that the black community would stop crying foul. I do not really have ALL the details of the case, but i general rule, when you get pulled over by a cop or cops ... regardless of your skin color you need to obey them. I don't care if you are in your total right you stop and obey them. But more and more we see innocent people being pulled over by cops for routine check and they get on their high horses refuse to cooperate and then ask the cops to be reprimanded or punished. for what? doing their jobs? yes there might be racial profiling but i am sorry to say this ... and everybody should start accepting this fact ... blacks and Hispanics are the main source of violent crime ... so they need to deal with it. the good guys are paying for the bad guys .... maybe they should get on the bad guys case that give them the bad rep instead of getting on the white folks case for supposedly being racist.

Any tragic shooting brings anger. This accidental death should be treated like any other; an accident. Race should not matter. The officers were on an assignment and things went wrong. A tragic outcome.That is what it was and nothing more.

Its stems from the way blacks think in general.

Everytime there is an issue, any issue, they will make it an issue between them, the oppressed of course, and the oppressor (often european, or more generally white, or even the american government itself).

They blame everybody but themselves for their problems. If you go to Africa, you will see that blacks there are very similar to blacks in America.

Exept for a few enlightened ones, the majority of them are just slowing down the country.

I wish all blacks were as smart as say, Seal or Obama

what would have happened if all the detectives were white men, with red or blonde hair and Germanic or Irish names?

there would be marching in the streets, riots, looting and vandalism.

many would be breaking out of stores with plasma TV's like they did in New Orleans.
