I assume you mean picture #3 along with the article:

Dude, because he's too fucking hard for that. When you are that much of a bad mother fucker, you don't smile even in professional photographs with your fiancee. At all times you have to show what a tough mother fucker you are.

*roll eyes*

Huge caveat: I read that one article, and have not researched it further.

"Justice didn't miscarry," he said. "This was an abortion of justice. Justice was aborted."

Sharpton, who has been advising Bell's family, had called for calm Wednesday.
Al Sharpton has become a complete disaster of a public figure. He really has completely given up on doing anything positive. Now he is just a race baiting rabble rouser. I guess that is easier than doing something meaningful and productive. That's a shame, because there was a time that he actually brought some worthwhile opinions to the public discourse.

A few thoughts:

1) When are people going to realize that strip clubs are about the stupidest, most dangerous place you can go these days. The criminal element hanging around strip clubs is enormous. There are shootings and other tragedies at these places on an almost weekly basis. If you have half a brain, you stay away from these places.

2) Getting in drunken arguments outside of a strip club = fucking stupid.

3) "Bell was in a panic to get away from the armed men, his friends testified." HUH??? I highly doubt the cops did not identify themselves, and I bet at least one (or more) of them had badges out. We can sit here and guess at why he decided to run from from the cops. None of the reasons are good ones. None of them mean he should be shot. But it is still incredibly stupid.

It sounds like the cops did indeed fuck up here - big time. If so, they should have to pay (a lot), despite the fact that a civil judgment can never bring someone back to life. But I cannot help but boggle at the incredible stupidity, carelessness, and "bad assery" that Bell engaged in which contributed to his own death. I can't call it tragic, because I have to believe that someone this stupid and careless would end up in a violent death at some point in his future. I just hope he didn't have kids yet.
