I don't know a whole bunch about it, except what I've seen on the news (likely unreliable) but i don't feel too bad about cops shooting and killing a criminal.

I really don't have much of an opinion yet because I need evidence that the cop shot him maliciously. The suspect could have pretended to have a gun or something. If the cop shot him with a fit of rage having the suspect not pose any life-threatening aura then obviously the cop needs to be in big trouble. You can't have cops just killing people without sufficient cause. However, I don't know if there was reason for the cop to fear for his life or not; hopefully we will get some answers.
Do I care that the suspect died? No. Did you see that video of how he treated that clerk at the store? Absolute thug.

You guys are absolutely right.
There's no point in protesting or standing out in the street being an idiot. No one has a case when no one has the facts.

FACT: The kid had pot in his system.
FACT: The kid had just robbed a convenience store.
FACT: The cop stopped the kid for jaywalking.
FACT: The kid attacked the cop in his car, and the cop ended up in the hospital with injuries to his face.
FACT: The kid was shot 6 times, all from the front.
UNCONFIRMED:
After the kid started running away, the cop apparently got out of his car, drew his gun, and told the kid to put his hands up. The cop says the kid stopped, put his hands up, turned around, and taunted him by yelling "you'll never shoot me." The cop then claims the kid then suddenly rushed towards him head on. The cop claims he fired off 6 rounds in self defense.
MY OPINION:
In our country's justice system, you're presumed innocent until proven guilty. But I'm not part of our justice system, and based upon the evidence (and lack thereof) presented thus far, my early conclusion is to side with the cop. Before you draw the conclusion that I might be letting cultural and racial differences affect my thinking, let me say that I believe George Zimmerman is guilty of involuntary manslaughter against Travon Martin, and should not be walking around as a free man.

Have you guys been watching the live feed of what's going on? Everyone saw this coming.
I was on UStream and this dude was broadcasting the scene in Ferguson from his iPhone when all of the sudden the broadcaster started running. Only then did I realize it wasn't actually the broadcaster... It was someone who STOLE his iPhone!
Did you see all of the looters? Did you see all of the cars and buildings on fire? Did you hear all of the gunshots?
Animals.
