I do not see how it is relevant. The responding officer did not know his history when he killed him. It is something that was dug into after the fact to justify it.
I think it's relevant. If somebody brings up any problems from his past to justify his death then the stuff that Neme posted about him could be brought up to counter that, provided it's true.
Shouldn't be relevant, of course, but if people insist on defending police brutality in this way then it becomes relevant.

This is an interesting subject.
When I was a lefty I thought rush Limbaugh was a theocrat and called him crush Limbaugh, now that I'm more right wing I haven't revisited him.
The quotes posted by robtard seem like Limbaugh is trolling.
Either way the idea of conservatism as a whole is pretty dumb because history inexorably marches left, meaning any conservative now will sound like a commie to anyone in the gdp a decade or two ago.
