Yes, your bias. You have argued against every charge of racism in this thread and in several other instances as well. You don’t want to believe that it’s endemic in our society so you ignore or attempt to attack all evidence that would argue against your beliefs. Of course this is all in my opinion based on your posts.
>>Thankfully, in this case, the police were quick to call the woman out on her bull#### and defended Hayes’ right to be there.<<
Instances like these were common when my city first started experimenting with body worn cameras. In fact one of the biggest selling points to our Department was that there would be documentation in these types of incidents. As it became widely understood that there were cameras the incidents lessened, but there are still false accusations.
Well you went from an unfair trolling accusation of "You have argued against every charge of racism in this thread" to "No, just in general" plenty quickly. You sure you aren't the one that unfairly paints people with your own biases?
No I don’t think so. Even in that instance you still managed to frame your post as an attack againat squistion. I’m pretty confident about my view regarding your opinions. Naturally, though, I hope you’ll change your mind.
A) Thats not really the crux of the article
LOL you know nothing about me. I didn't attack anyone. I stated where I thought the story belonged based on other random stories that get posted in the PSF. I'm confident about my view that you're judgmental and love to paint people with a broad brush based on your own biases. Hopefully, you will change.
Yes, it was in a thread which is entitled "racial profiling" which is why this was a story.
Yes so. Again you side with the people crying racism in every case. You have said multiple times now. And whats amazing about that is that you are so insulated in your world you have now clue how that looks. Calling someone a racist, which is what you are doing, is just dangerous man. Being some sort of racial white knight must be exhausting.
He was in the act of attacking an officer at the time, who first deployed his taser and was unable to stop the guy.
Attacking him with what? That police force can't take an unarmed man into custody without firing a gun?Henry Ford said:
This was a situation that called for a K-9 unit. A K-9 latching onto that guys unit and he would have stopped dead in his tracks.
That lady was way out of line, obviously. Especially to stay around and try to dictate to the African-American gentleman with the cops present.squistion said:
Is it better to shoot the guy in the stomach or have him live after a K9 ate his twig and berries?
"Republican." Unless it's vaccine related. Then... Democrat? Green Party? It's all too complicated for me.
I have a book for you to read. "Reptile: The 2009 Manual Of The Plaintiff's Revolution"
I kinda agree here, and I can answer the question -- because there was a video made of the incident. And because of the caller's behavior once the cops were on the scene.pantherclub said:
Ramblin Wreck is correct if he is saying this story has much longer legs were the naked man African-American, though. It would play very differently to the public.
I agree with that but I'm saying the guy was clearly unarmed so they should be able to apprehend him without shooting him. Feels like unnecessary brutality whether the guy is white or black but yes if he were black people would be going crazy over it.
Also, funny story, the man was African American.
If it's 1-on-1 and the other guy is in PCP/LSD heaven, a taser won't stop him, and he keeps coming, I have no issue with the police shooting someone whether he's clothed, naked, armed, or unarmed, whatever his or her race.
It shouldn't be one on one. Stop traffic and call for backup. But otherwise, I agree with you.
One cop car isn't stopping I-95 in one direction, much less both directions. But yes, we need better funding for police departments so officers aren't out in a car alone whenever possible.
I assumed he was white, but it was because I heard he was on PCP. I always chalk that up to a white person's drug, not sure why though.
The guy in the middle? He looked white?I did because the guy looked white where I first saw the story
Now, I disagree with this statement in this instance, but...
Upon reading the article I considered the woman's actions and comments racist. I could be mistaken. She could just be "that" lady that calls for umpteen numbers of stupid/little/timewasting reasons.squistion said:
I'm wondering if you did?pantherclub said:
I agree, my first and mostly ingrained thought was that it was a white individual running around naked on a highway. The article didn't elaborate on the race of the individual.
Yes, said it was brutality and unnecessary from the beginning. Regardless of whether he was black or white.
Right, but... where's the white population this is happening to? I mean, you ran in to give us the example of the guy you thought was white and even he wasn't. It's happening at what at least appears to be a much higher rate with black citizens. At some point.... doesn't it start to at least be a legitimate concern?
