These same people used the same logic when Rodney King was beaten down,"he had prior crimes", "he was a criminal", "he resisted arrest".
Great, sure King was criminal and maybe he did resist arrest that night. Doesn't mean the police get to act as judge, jury and possible executioner. Their job was to arrest King and take him in for his crimes that night.
Why these same types of people still want to end up on the wrong side of history is baffling. I believe it's their racism that's overriding their frontal lob.
