posted by SportsAndLadyI thought that, too, reading his post. What an incredibly dumb fucking post. And it barely made any sense.
I dont expect it to make since to people like you that arent highly intelligent. The post was meant to express a feeling that when dumb ass white cops do this shit....it reflects on all white people. It surely drives that narrative
posted by Ironman92Nothing in any way acceptable what that officer did....he should rot in hell.
I feel this is a safe place for me to ask this. I’m confused about the rage a bit. Any cop killing anyone is awful obviously. Aren’t more white people killed by cops than any other race? I’m ignorant on this....someone kindly help me out. My FB is blown up talking about white cops murdering black people. If they are only killing black people I get it, but numbers I saw show way more white people are killed by cops. I get this particular individual one and there have been several others in recent time.
1. safe place....LOL.
2. No, cops killing some people is acceptable due to the what the damage that person it doing.

You have to be trolling. “Since”?

He'll give you a hint. He ain't dumn.
posted by iclfan2That convo will go like this: yes more white people are killed, but blacks are a smaller part of the population, but they commit more crimes, but they only get arrested for more crimes bc of racism... no way to prove any of the last part
If you really want to screw with the virtue-signaling crusaders, you respond with this:
"But if I had to wrong 5 white people in order to wrong 2 black people, would that mean I suck at racism?"

I mean, yeah I agree...but I don't know how you prevent them 100%. They're going to slip through the cracks.

He never proofreads. He just types whatever he’s feeling and hits send.

I would be interested in knowing the percentage of white people that think what is seen in that video is OK. Maybe you could use your Covid 19 death formula to figure it out, because it would probably match.

They don't just slip through cracks. How many of these officers have disciplinary records? How many are for excessive use of force? How many have been accused of domestic violence? Why is it so hard to fire a shitty police officer? Many fired officers are hired back, sometimes because of an administrative error during the investigation. There are major problems with a lot of LEAs.

The problem is unions. A ton of people in multiple industries should be fired all the time, but it’s almost impossible bc of unions and lawsuits.

I understand that. My point was that bad police officers don't just slip through the cracks. The fact that it's difficult to fire a police officer is more troubling to me than the fact that it's difficult to fire a steel worker, no disrespect to them.
posted by justincredibleIndividual cops can be good, but the institution itself is bad.
Not a true statement at all. If the whole thing was bad we would literally see 1000s of these cases every year.

Ok. I disagree. Your standards are way too low.

Complaining about people that "aren't highly intelligent" while typing "since" when the proper word was "sense" for the context.
Such a gym teacher thing to do.

I mean. Look at this. Just look at it.

Which professions ‘don’t get to have bad apples’?
Just saw another angle of incident. Damn, there were 2 other officers holding him down the whole time. Always thought it was just one.
Looks like 3 should be going to prison.
