Think of this on Veterans Day

I found this on Facebook.

AUGUSTA, GA - Orville Smith, a store manager for Best Buy in Augusta, Ga. told police he observed a customer, later identified as Tyrone Jackson of Augusta, on surveilance cameras putting a laptop computer under his jacket. When confronted the man became irate, knocked down an employee, drew a knife and ran for the door.

Outside on the sidealk were four Marines collecting toys for the Toys for Tots program. Smith said the Marines stopped the man, but he stabbed one of them, Cpt. Phillip Duggan, in the back; the injury did not appear to be severe.

After police and an ambulance arrived at the scene, Cpt. Duggan was taken for treatment.

"The subject was also transported to the local hospital with two broken arms, a broken ankle, a broken leg, several missing teeth, possible broken ribs, multiple contusions, assorted lacerations, a broken nose and a broken jaw ..... injuries he sustained when he slipped and fell off the curb after stabbing the Marine," according to a police report.

LOL.. Damn funny....

On the other hand, if it had been the cops that had given him a beat down, there'd be a riot... Funny how that works out... Both are tasked with protecting us but are looked on differently.

Bullshit, not after he stabbed a cop with a knife.

Don't try to compare stabbing a cop with a knife to Rodney King speeding.

Just pure bullshit.

That would be considered excessive force if the cops had done it.. and if the guy had been black and the cops white, all sorts of people would be up in arms about it... so can I get whatever you're smoking.. I want to live in la la land as well...
