But police brutality is merely the most dramatic and violent attack on the lives of African Americans. It’s a TV camera-ready symbol of their status in America as negligible and disposable. Unruly children to be punished for their impertinence, regardless of how justified their outcry. However, the more insidious and damaging threat to the health, lives, and economic well-being of Black Americans is a health care system that ignores the fact that, though they are most in need of medical services, they actually receive the lowest level.
I agree, Guy deserved a at least one cap.And that, right there, is white privilege.
No it's not.And that, right there, is white privilege.
That right there is why you can’t be objective. Thanks for playing.And that, right there, is white privilege.
I dont understand? Some Twitter handle is upset that the president-elect hasnt responded to them in the last 32 days?
Did you miss the ending of the first video? The part where the guy wasn't removed from his car, wasn't arrested on the spot, and in fact just drove away from the incident?No it's not.
If I can provide even one example of a black person with a gun NOT getting shot after a police stop and resisting arrest I can destroy your assertion on the spot. Here you go:

That, right there, must be black privilege (if we use your standards-of-identifying-privilege).
Black people flee police all the time. What % of the time do you think they get shot?Did you miss the ending of the first video? The part where the guy wasn't removed from his car, wasn't arrested on the spot, and in fact just drove away from the incident?
Do you think that scenario ends differently if the guy in the car is a black guy? Obviously we don't know with certainty, but history tells us that things likely go very badly if that guy was black and not white.
one cap in the knee cap seems fairI agree, Guy deserved a at least one cap.

Good lord. Maybe change it to snow flake high...San Francisco is going to rename Abraham Lincoln High School because Lincoln didn't demonstrate that black lives mattered to him.
Too many idiots in this country.Sure - lets spread False Information under the guise of faux outrage.
Yet the renaming of Lincoln High School was a slam dunk for the committee, which didn’t even discuss it, according to video of the meetings. The members of the committee, appointed by the school board, deemed whether a person’s actions or beliefs met the criteria for renaming, and moved on. The committee’s spreadsheet with notes on their research listed the federal treatment of Native Americans during his administration as the reason.
“The discussion for Lincoln centered around his treatment of First Nation peoples, because that was offered first,” Jeffries said. “Once he met criteria in that way, we did not belabor the point.”
Does this make the renaming a better decision?Sure - lets spread False Information under the guise of faux outrage.

Still one of the dumbest decisions I've ever heard. Straight out of San Francisco. Where else?Sure - lets spread False Information under the guise of faux outrage.

You'd be o.k. with taking his name off the school for that?Still one of the dumbest decisions I've ever heard. Straight out of San Francisco. Where else?
Yes, a nuanced view of history. I wonder how nuanced they are about Lincoln's other questionable moves like suspending habeas corpus for individuals considered enemies of the Union. Gee, wonder why they won't examine that?
No, I wouldn't be. It's an example of how "nuanced" thinking can be actually nitpicking and stupid. Lincoln saved the Union and freed slaves. That alone should be enough to solidify his status on a school.You'd be o.k. with taking his name off the school for that?
Lincoln was a progressive for his time imo. He did have several policies and promises to native Americans that were never met primarily because of the civil war and his presidency getting cut short. Shame on San Francisco...
But, it does mean they didn't add Lincoln to the list "because Lincoln didn't demonstrate that black lives mattered to him."
Honestly, my history is not so great outside of mainstream history - so I did not really know about his policies with native Americans -so I am not in a position to judge whether that deserves more scrutiny. I think most people learn a certain view point of history, and it glosses over a lot of gray areas - to the point where many people are offended when someone wants to look more closely at history - perhaps from a different view point.

They haven't decided to rename, FYI. A committee has recommend it. The board has not taken it up.
May I ask why you care so much about how schools are named in San Francisco?Still one of the dumbest decisions I've ever heard. Straight out of San Francisco. Where else?Sure - lets spread False Information under the guise of faux outrage.

Thanks GBNo.May I ask why you care so much about how schools are named in San Francisco?
Thanks GBIn all seriousness, that's a stupid red herring question and I don't see the need to answer it.
Me either. Just saying, I don't think we're at the finger waving at all of San Francisco stage yet. A couple of people are pushing agendas - we'll see how far they get. Hopefully not very far.They haven't decided to rename, FYI. A committee has recommend it. The board has not taken it up.
Personally I wouldn’t float ideas like this as recommendations.
You know that's not the point so why pretend to be obtuse?May I ask why you care so much about how schools are named in San Francisco?
I think the concern is that there's only a fine line separating them from power and actually enacting this sort of suggestion. It's my opinion -- and solely that -- that people who hold this particular opinion ought to have their other recommendations met with a great deal of scrutinty, at the least. Outright laughter and dismissal would serve them better.Me either. Just saying, I don't think we're at the finger waving at all of San Francisco stage yet.

It used to be right-wingers who pushed stupid stuff like this -- getting mad about evolution being taught in schools, worrying about kids turning to witchcraft because they read a Harry Potter* book in the school library, abstinence-only sex ed, etc. Now it's the Woke doing this stuff, but that's just a slightly different flavor of puritanism, and laughter is still the best response.I think the concern is that there's only a fine line separating them from power and actually enacting this sort of suggestion.

I'm not sure. I think simply laughing and dismissing might be part of the reason they're winning the culture in Academia, MSM, and Big Tech.It used to be right-wingers who pushed stupid stuff like this -- getting mad about evolution being taught in schools, worrying about kids turning to witchcraft because they read a Harry Potter* book in the school library, abstinence-only sex ed, etc. Now it's the Woke doing this stuff, but that's just a slightly different flavor of puritanism, and laughter is still the best response.
* Of course Harry Potter is problematic again for reasons that would be hard to explain to a normal person.
WowBlack people flee police all the time. What % of the time do you think they get shot?
Actually, regarding states rights it’s spot on.You know that's not the point so why pretend to be obtuseMay I ask why you care so much about how schools are named in San Francisco?
Do you care if schools in Mississippi force students to say a little prayer each morning? If so, you should be able to understand why people make fun of school officials in other jurisdictions.Actually, regarding states rights it’s spot on.
Care to answer the question?
I'm just checking in from the peanut gallery here, brother, but I'm guessing he probably strongly disagrees with the reasoning of the putative neo-Torquemadas spearheading these types of relentless idealistic purification crusades, and he probably believes it's a bad idea for that school of thought to grow more pervasive throughout American society than it already is right now.Actually, regarding states rights it’s spot on.

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2029240Black patients had nearly three times the frequency of occult hypoxemia that was not detected by pulse oximetry as White patients. Given the widespread use of pulse oximetry for medical decision making, these findings have some major implications, especially during the current coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic. Our results suggest that reliance on pulse oximetry to triage patients and adjust supplemental oxygen levels may place Black patients at increased risk for hypoxemia. It is important to note that not all Black patients who had a pulse oximetry value of 92 to 96% had occult hypoxemia. However, the variation in risk according to race necessitates the integration of pulse oximetry with other clinical and patient-reported data

Thanks for posting this. I had meant to do so when I first saw this and I forgot. This topic was actually kind of fascinating and confusing.
So?School-led prayer hasn't been allowed in Mississippi public schools since 2013.
Not trying to be argumentative but are you comparing the separation of church and state to having the school committee engaging in a vote to change the name of a school?IvanKaramazov said:Do you care if schools in Mississippi force students to say a little prayer each morning?
