all bullshit....hahahahahh--you ALSO--just fked up and show that you also are BLINDED and warped by your obsessions:hahahahah==where have you been for the last few years???it doesn't matter how or who ----it's ALL whitey's fault ....the jackass black [ MBrown ] could attack a cop--and it's the COP'S fault--by their failed--idiotic logic
..a jackass thug criminal black could have pistol, resist arrest, continue to resist, fight with the cops, and it's STILL the cops' fault [ASterling ] ---hahahahah---STUPID SHIT
etc etc etc
Okay, no one disputed it was the cop's fault.
How is it Buttigeig's fault, that's what I was asking.
The days of thug cops is over, buddy... politicians will throw them under the bus now and we are all better off for it.
.....I do not want thug cops/corrupt cops !!! I am against thug cops--but FOR cops doing what is right--defending themselves against jackass criminal thugs
You mean like the 11 year old kid with the toy gun the cops hopped out of their car and shot on sight. Or the guy the cops choked to death for selling cigarettes. How about the black hospital worker shot trying to keep the police from shooting his patient? Or the family man who was shoot and killed after flagging police down on the highway after a breakdown?
We've had cases where a black homeowner who called police because of a prowler, was shot by the officers he called. And another instance of a black man being shot in the back in his own backyard while on the phone, because the police where chasing someone and they thought his phone was a gun.
they did NOT choke the LIFE LONG criminal to death==he had over 30 arrests!!!!
...the kid was brandishing what appeared to be a real weapon==NOT the cops fault the parents failed
..I've been over this before a million times
the BIG problems were:
MBrown
ASterling KScott
EGarner
the cops were NOT at fault
...there is not a chronic problem of cops shooting ANYONE, much less blacks = I've put out the stats/links for this many times on USMB
humans make mistakes
whites get shot also
.....the cops are doing a good job at not shooting jackass criminal blacks considering they commit crime at much higher rates
So Eric Garner wasn't choked to death by the police, he was killed by his arrests? Where is the proportional response here? He was selling cigarettes for 25 cents apiece, and because he had been arrested 30 times, he was choked to death. Is that what you're saying is if you're a "career criminal", meaning you've been arrested for selling cigarettes, and being a general pain in the butt, the police can choke you to death and that's OK?
The police pulled up in front of the 11 year old child, got out of the car and shot him. They didn't warn, him, they didn't tell him to drop his weapon, they just pulled up opened the door and gunned that child down without a word. That's not policing, that's execution.
The police are 7 times more likely to shoot unarmed blacks than they are unarmed whites.
The police are doing a piss poor job of not shooting unarmed civilians, or to overreacting to calls when blacks are involved. They're SUPPOSED to investigate each occurence on its merits, not just assume because they see a black face, that person, regardless of age or sex, is a criminal. That's the very definition of PROFILING.
There have been numerous instances of black people calling the police and being shot by them. One man called to report a man assaulting his wife in the driveway, and when police arrived they shot the husband, who by the time they arrived, had run off the guy attacking his wife. When it comes to black people, police seem to shoot first and ask questions later.
The case of the hospital worker is especially egregious. The guy was on the ground, hands over his head, begging police not to shoot. Telling them he was just trying to get his patient back to the hospital; that his patient had a toy truck, and was unarmed. The cop who shot him said that they were "trying to hit the retard" - the victim's mentally disabled patient.
It makes about as much sense as the cop who shot the white Australian woman in her PJ's who called in the report of a prowler. Part of the problem is that with all of the guns in America, police truly are taking their lives in their hands every time they respond to a call - any call. But when statistics overwhelmingly show that police are 7 times more likely to shoot and kill an unarmed black civilian than a white one, blacks don't commit 7 times more crimes than whites. There aren't 7 times more blacks in prison than whites.
But blacks are 7 times more likely to end up dead at the hands of the police. And YOU don't see any problem with that.
