It was handled poorly, but bottom line is that dude brought what happened onto himself by not following basic instructions. That is indisputable...you are trying to hand-cuff the police --VERY stupid--so criminals will commit MORE crimeSo you want to defund the police until you need them?Well quit doing shit that makes people feel like they need to kill you before you kill them.You think every member of my wife's family liked having a peckerwood at the table?I don't have to go back that far, it's just a good example.Name another country that fought a war to free people that most folks didn't even consider human at the time.It's supposed to say that it could be a damn sight worse.Why don't you try being a minority in some other country?Try being an officer for even one shift.
Try being a black man in this country.
Bet you'll be back here before long.
Because America and other countries treat minorities badly is suppose to say what?
At least we try to make things better.
Some of us, anyway.
Not nearly enough.
I'll wait.
When you have to go back 150 years to find something..............
50 or 60 years ago it would have been illegal for me to marry my wife in most of this country.
But that got better and so will the rest if people would quit fucking it up.
Look at a large number of arguments here and elsewhere. We have a president that called those who tried to air their complaints SOB's.
That shit goes both ways.
It takes time to rub all the sharp edges off.
So people should just accept getting killed until we do that?
Cops are predators, they hunt people.
That's going to end.
This gets so old. This has been covered many times. We aren't getting rid of the police.
What if one of your family members had been raped, wouldn't you want a cop hunting the guilty down?
As opposed to chasing someone down and killing them over a bicycle violation? Yes.
They are doing it to themselves. Even Trump admitted that there is no reason to shoot man 7 times in the back at point blank range.
You want to talk about better police training, and better education for civilians in listening to police instruction? That is the way to handle these things. Absolving criminal blame because of how cops handle a situation brought about by a criminal?
NO.
