YOU said that their deaths were no big deal because their lives don't matter and the world is better off without them. That is what I am referring to, and you know it.

I did answer you.

BTW, you said that due process wasn't an issue. You said that Freddie Gray had his death coming to him because he was a petty criminal.

So, Trayvon martin's life doesn't matter?
It's OK that he died because he had it coming?
He's not one of the good ones, like MLK?

Goose, I said none of what you claim. I said Freddie Gray and Trayvon Martin had their fates coming to them, yes, they were thugs. I never said due process isn't an issue.
You claim due process must be followed. Due process was followed in Trayvon Martin killer's case, and he was found not guilty. Due process has not yet been given to the police involved in Freddie Gray's death, but you already think that they're guilty. Why is that?

Yea, I stated that due process should be followed. And I still do.
I disagreed with the verdict in the Martin case. But, everything was done legally, so I must accept it.
I hope that the officers in the Gray case are aggessively prosecuted, while their rights are respected.
Clear enough?
Now, about you. Where did you get this peculiar idea that some people don't deserve those rights.
Don't dodge. You have written repeatedly that it is "ridiculous" for BLM to protest the deaths of Martin, Garner, and Gray, because they had it coming, and the world is a better place without them.
Gray was arrested for a minor offense. His death in police custody is a matter of great concern. You just can't have a guy die in custody, and say, Oh well, we did you a service.
How do you reconcile that with our system of justice?

I'm not dodging anything. Freddie Gray?! Are you kidding me??? The guy had a felony rap sheet as thick as a Sears catalog. That guy lived the thug life through and through, and yes he did indeed have his fate coming to him.

By the way, Due process is the legal requirement that the state must respect all legal rights that are owed to a person accused of a crime.
It does not preclude me from forming an opinion as to their guilt or innocence. These things are unrelated.

So, he deserved to have his neck broken while being driven to the police station, shackled, cuffed, and presenting no danger to anyone?
Petty crimes deserve death?
That's the country you want to live in?
And what about Trayvon?

Wait, I thought you were going to let due process play out until you assigned blame? No? ;)
Let's say he did have his neck broken, and he wasn't at fault. No, he didn't deserve that, but yes, his thug lifestyle (proven, convicted thug lifestyle) led to it. I'm sorry, I just don't have sympathy for that. We just disagree on this, and that's fine.
