Because they are. Their lives are valuable. They have meaning. I don’t dismiss people simply because they live in a bad part of town.you are the one who claimed black people in the hood were paying for the police presence thereThis is exactly where the phrase “Black lives matter” comes from. These are people we are talking about.The hood costs far more than it is worthDirt poor black people are not paying for the copsWhen cops behave with disregard for people’s rights and freedoms, some people may begin to see them as the enemies.I dont see cops as the enemyThe second you start seeing the people as the enemies, you’ve gone too far.
but I am white when there is a lot of anti white hate coming from the left, meaning blacks
most conservatives are well armed and now I think militant blacks are buying ar-15s in preparation for a race war
if the cops are disbanded or just refuse to intervene a lot of Americans are going to die
The cops may not see you as the enemy, but in other neighborhoods they may see the people as the enemy. That’s why things are so screwed up. Police used to serve the people. Now it sometimes feels like it’s the other way around.
there are neighborhoods in which the cops are the enemies. There are neighborhoods in which bill collectors are the enemies and meter maids and people who sue for non-payment and people who serve court papers and------even "bookies" "the other way around"??? some cop demanded that you do something for HIM?
Hence defund the police. One should not have to pay for their own mistreatment.
that comes from tax money and the hood pays little of the cost of police protection
Property taxes. City service fees. And the court costs and fines from all the extra attention they get.
What you say just isn’t true.
With attitudes like yours, they may rightly feel like their lives aren’t considered valuable.
