I’ll give you an equally worthless answer while also avoiding your question.
I’d outrun the bullets.
I also love that the people who think that Brown deserved to be shot six times for allegedly punching a cop have no problem with a cop pointing a weapon at a crowd of people and threatening to murder them.
If you were a North Korean, would you think it wise to stand out in the middle of the road waving a sign and chanting for democracy?
You don’t really ‘get’ courage, do you?
Having been courageous is of little value to the dead.
So…no.
You’re gonna need a bigger boat.
I’m not sure what you’ve got but I think it’s a good idea to always get the best lawyer you can afford when you decide to stand up to authority.
As has been noted, Ferguson has some strange election laws that seem to have been intended to keep voter turn out low and keep municipal government in the hands of an entrenched group. Municipal elections are held in April, not in November when large, national elections are held. As a result, voter turnout for municipal elections is around 11%. Interestingly, when groups used the protests in Ferguson as an opportunity to register voters, the MO GOP called the move “playing the race card.”
Also, if you have an armed police officer pointing a gun at citizens and threatening to kill them for participating in a protest, I would argue that you don’t really have a functioning democracy.
Crowd? Was it a crowd or a single person? What was edited out of that tape that may well put that in a different light, you know the three or four minutes preceding the cop speaking?
So it’s really for rich people?
If they care enough to protest, they care enough to vote - if that’s actually their aim. But yeah, saying “vote so there’s black people in the government” is playing the race card. Doesn’t make it wrong though, but ideally we’d get the best people in government regardless of race.
Not really. Firstly, protest is more or less orthogonal to democracy, as it neither can nor should change anything except opinions - and there’s better ways to do that than shouting on street corners these days. Secondly, the actions of one individual have no bearing on whether democracy is functioning, especially when those actions are condemned by the authority involved.
The only reason that there’s no functioning democracy there is that 89% of people have chosen not to vote.
What do you believe is for rich people? 
You should just c&p this to be the entire content of every post you make.
You’d end up like Mike Brown. Be dead with people making up worthless scenarios like saying you charged at a loaded gun to justify your death.
You misunderstood the word “outrun.”
Here’s a question that may shed more light on the various positions of posters in this thread:
Would the protestor who that cop threatened to kill have been legally justified in killing the cop in self-defense? Why or why not?
“Killing a cop in self-defense” is an oxymoron.
Dear Christ, there’s a reason people keep bringing up North Korea in regards to your opinions.
