From this article:
Not to take away from those tragedies, but why would there be protests for officers getting killed? What exactly would they be protesting? It’s well known that there a lot of awful non-cop citizens and by signing up to be a cop, it’s well understood that you’re putting your life on the line every day.
Yes. 94% of African American murders were committed by other African Americans. Also, thanks to Biden for almost 20 years crack sentences were 100 time tougher compared to coke (now they're only 18x tougher). Charlemagne the God started to get into Biden's crime policies before Biden's PR person tried to cut the interview and Biden made the "you ain't black" comment. Biden may have done some good things in his political career but his criminal justice policies were damaging to the black community.
Hopefully you took the time to read the speech I posted in this thread from Dr. Shelby Steele (also in the Trump is Great thread). Once you read that, you'll understand why people play the race card and the reaction it is intended to elicit.
I dint believe anyone called you a racist for posting it.
Apparently, this is a hilarious post.
Just because you don’t like the source doesn’t mean the info isn’t true. Stop with the source cop shtick.
I will preface this by saying I don't have a clue who those sources are that have been the center of the back and forth (Mike Cernovich and Jack Posibiec). I know nothing of their content and I am not on twitter much if that is their platform. I will say that the bolded is exactly what should be done when evaluating the validity of the information. I don't understand how that can ever be a criticism of someone. You simply can not, should not, put stock in claims from an untrustworthy source.
I attacked both the source and the information he provided.
I will acknowledge that you are trolling again. I will acknowledge that Sho Nuff laughed at your post, who ironically cries for people to stop making things personal all the time but doesn't follow his own advice.
His post was about acknowledging something...he didn’t call you anything or get personal.
I'd like the employees at bombed abortion clinics to weigh in on this debate.jon_mx said:
search any popular guy on google thats right leaning, you will find plenty of hit pieces on almost every single one of them. The left tries to force their point and shut down conversation by attacking people that disagree with them as racists.
He didn't get personal? He called me out by name. How is that not getting personal? Do you honestly hear yourself?
Are you an independent thinker? Weren't you caught posting tweets as your own thoughts, without giving credit?
The issue on police brutality goes far deeper then just the Black community. Poor white people have had their rights violated, I've seen cops get over aggressive and excessive use of force on a 12 year old girl, cops shoot a dog on a leash "because they feared for their life", break into homes without proper paper work and then when the person tries to defend their home or the person the cops go after the cops hit them with some bull#### charge, cops use excessive force on an autistic person, etc etc. The issue here is cops having carte blanche to do whatever the hell they want and be above the law with ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY. The corruption runs deep from the Unions to HQ1 all the way up to mayors and other politicians. Find the sources and chop it off at the head.
I agree and I don`t think you will find anyone anywhere defending what Chauvin did. It was a slow murder that could have easily been prevented.Galileo said:
As had been discussed before, the issue with this data set is the denominator is percent of population and not percent of criminal interactions, General police interactions, etc
This needs clarification IMO. You're missing the word "some" here. There are many reasons people play the race card. Many times it's because it's actually racism. I can appreciate the speech and I can appreciate that it applies to some people. However, it is NOT "the" reason.
Never thought I’d read that sentencepollardsvision said:

Read Dr. Shelby Steele's "White Guilt". The use of the word "some" isn't necessary. Here is Steele on the race card:
This post should be submitted to the Guinness Book of World records for the longest jump to conclusions.
For me, it means no more military equipment or training, for starters. Police have almost no use for high powered rifles, flak jackets and helmets on daily patrol, and certainly no APCs. Their training should better reflect interaction in a civilian population, not as an occupying military force. They're to serve and protect, which is a lot harder to do looking like soldiers in a foreign country.
Stop supplying police departments with weapons of war: submachine guns, military rifles, armored vehicles.
When a school is attacked and children are in danger people don`t care. When there is multiple hostage situations people don`t care, that situation in LA years ago the perps had better, more powerful weapons than the police and were unstoppable wearing body armor.
Hyperbole is unbecoming of you. I'm not saying to not train or properly equip them at all, but the vast majority of police officers in this country have no use for battlefield equipment, because they'll probably never be on an actual battlefield here, and military training is designed to make the trainee better at fighting wars, not dealing with John Q. Public who coasted through that stop sign.
Um, yeah...alright...great example...
I agree..but the one time they do have use for it we will all be saying why?? Why..were we not prepared.
Are you expecting some type of invading force? I mean, I grew up outside Detroit, but I highly doubt the Canadians are gearing up to head across the river. Even on the southern border, the cartels aren't going to want to draw the attention of the actual military, which is what would happen if they tried anything. Oh, and you mentioned criminals having better weapons than the police in Mexico. That's because the cartels run most things there, and the police are allegedly pretty corrupt themselves. That's not going to happen here, even if we take away most of the police toys they'd barely ever use outside of target practice.
It's exactly what all the looting idiots want. Until someone's family member needs help, then all of the cop haters are screaming "where were the police, what took so long. I cant believe they let this happen. Whiny HYPOCRITES
I am not talking about just Detroit.
