You Missed Something Out, Didn't You?

Speaking on behalf of his daughter, Bryant's niece, he said: 'This may have just been another black man dying in controversial circumstances but to us he was just another son, brother, father and uncle.'
And armed robber.
'Throughout Shane's life there were times where he was misunderstood.'
Like when he dragged a female member of staff away from the counter at the Co-op store and forced them to open the safe?
'He was an energetic, upbeat, imaginative and creative individual.'
Does it take a lot of creativity to rob a Co-op then?
'It is very hard for us to understand why Shane got involved in the crime at the Co-op at the time of his death.'
Because he was criminal scum.
'As a family, there was no doubt in our mind that Shane should have been arrested for his crime, he should have ended up in prison for his crime, but he should not have ended up in a coffin.'
That was his choice.

You totally miss the point HE WAS A BLACK MAN! As such he was the nearest thing the UK has to a sacred cow.

So finally, to the community's relief, he was understood. Doesn't yer 'art bleed?

Surprised that a Coop has money in cash worth stealing, to be frank.

I have a feeling that these deaths while being restrained are the result of drugs.

"..... 'extremely muscular' 29-year-old "...
It will be interesting to note how much of an intake of anabolic steroids, which can cause heart problems, this misunderstood saint has been taking over a period of time?
If a long term user, as another side effect is the shrinking of a penis - could be the only black man not to be 'gifted' - and a lower sperm count, so it is also possible he is contender for a Darwin award. If so, a double plus.

Unless you have wrestled a young fit ,desperate man off his head on drugs, you have no idea how strong they are.
People watch tv shows where a tiny female cop handcuffs a male suspect without a problem and they think that's normal.
Hollywood fights are the same, the hero defeats five or six men who queue up one at a time to attack him. Utter nonsense.
As for this man, no loss.

I'd prefer them wandering the streets. Frankly!

"Surprised that a Coop has money in cash worth stealing, to be frank."

I wonder how long it'll be before the rise of the cashless society renders such crimes no longer worthwhile? The only things I use cash for these days are the windowcleaner, the hairdresser and my elderly mother's chiropody appointments.

Everything else is tap & pay.

"It will be interesting to note how much of an intake of anabolic steroids, which can cause heart problems, this misunderstood saint has been taking over a period of time?"

Hmmm, you may well be right. I don't suppose some crusading coroner wants to trouble themselves?

"People watch tv shows where a tiny female cop handcuffs a male suspect without a problem and they think that's normal."

Yes Jaded, we've all seen those. And we've all seen the Facebook and YouTube videos of what happens when a WPC tries it in real life!

"Oh dear, how sad, never mind. No loss."

My thoughts exactly!
