If your a lawyer you should know what justice is, if not you have no right to act as lawyer.

Thanks LChrisStewart1, one of the most powerful and emotional press conferences I’ve ever seen! BlackLivesMatter PoliceBrutalityPandemic PoliceReform

Justice is not fighting with law enforcement. Try not to be a typical lawyer by spouting off in front of the cameras.

Justice is changing of governance so we have government that never causes suffering. Justice is prevention only policing where police are normal citizens who are always peaceful never putting themselves in danger doing away with all police uniforms, cars, and detainment centers.

Heres the thing: Do not resist arrest. Do not steal a deadly weapon from a cop. Do not aim the said weapon at the cop.

Get RID OF THE ORANGE NASTY RACIST BEAST!!

At some point we have to define what justice looks like for us. We may change the people at the top but if the system itself stays the same, nothing changes. Getting fired and then being replaced by another incompetent cop, chief or mayor serves no purpose. We need reform! Period

Unbelievable! Is there any.... justice?

Tell him to watch the video, he will see swift justice.

Yes, perhaps we all should reexamine our definitions.

How about dont break the law or resist arrest! The librial left make it sound like this is a huge issue, how many are we talking about in a population of 320+ Mil. 100x more black on black deaths occur weekly, but BLM doesn't address this because BLM really doesn't care!

It sounds like no one actually had “the talk” with Brooks.

This isn't difficult! Racism is doing the same thing to black people as is done to white people, except 1000 x more of it, 1000 x more harsh, 1000 x more focused on, 1000 x less cutting black people slack than is for white people. STOP going after black people with a vengeance!

Justice is when the individual cop pays the price, financially and/or jail time. If you have to think about you life savings b4 pullingvthe trigger, you would think how you approach a situation. A perp may run but he can't hide. No need to overreact.

We need a deep and sustained anti-racist political, social, and cultural agenda. What blacks experience goes beyond institutional racism. I’m sickened by the murder of Rayshard Brooks. I’m embarrassed to admit this: there have been a couple of times I was too drunk to ...

It would start with the Equal Rights Amendment being made into law...and then enforced. And then enacting restrictions on what police can and can't do. If they don't like it, they should quit. There should not be two sets of laws for them and us. Nor government officials and us.

If someone thinks a conviction against the cops is happening in this case they are gonna be deeply deeply disappointed.

Justice is someone breaking the law getting arrested, cited, going to court and having a fair trial of hearing where they have to be accountable for their actions. Ta-da!

the MAYOR of Atlanta MUST RESIGN, just like the Police Chief did. the mayor is just as responsible for the actions of those who work for her, either directly or indirectly.

Is it dismantling the racist structures that have oppressed and killed Black Americans for four centuries? Hell yes.

I agree with what chrisstewartesq said, Police should be held to a higher standard. It comes down to better training, understanding others and having social interpersonal skills.

It's not stealing an officer's taser gun and pointing it at them.

Justice is not driving so drunk you pass out in the wendy's drive-through and then fighting your arresting officers... BROOKS IS NOT

Why did the cops tell someone they thought was drunk to move their car? Did they want him to run? I wonder if Jessi Watters thinks this was a scripted scene trying to gain empathy for cops

Getting arrested for being drunk and asleep in your car in the drive through is much better justice than what Brooks brought on for himself.

If you don't know what justice is, maybe practicing law is not for you.

At least all of that. Than a fuck load more.

An I for an I

Don't get drunk and fight the police

It is not resisting arrest it is not taking a lethal weapon from a cop it is following the law

This is America, justice comes out of the barrel of a gun.

Its hate news network and tge Dem Party for starting this crap !
