There were protests for BLM in all 50 states. There was destruction associated with some events.
There have always been people taking advantage of protests or dissension to steal, destroy or otherwise inappropriately behave or express themselves. Nothing new here, but now we are claiming that we have discovered who has been doing it. Where was Antifa in 1965 at the Watts riots? 67 in Detroit? 92 in LA? 1898 in Wilmington? 1863 in NYC? 1921 in West Virginia? 1863 in Richmond? 1824 in Hardscrabble and Snowtown? There have been hundreds. Every one of those had significant destruction associated with them, some included mass murders. If you are falling for the BE VERY AFRAID of Antifa and it's the Dems message of the RNC you're being played. It's pretty obvious that there are issues with law enforcement in this country. There are no simple solutions. But militarizing the police will not make it go away, it hasn't so far has it? I have not seen any movement towards a solution by this administration other than offers to send federal officers to do something. Just what are they going to do, run the protesters over with tanks like the CCP or gas them like Tweety in DC? It's pretty much guaranteed to escalate the dissension. There are things that can be done and have not. It is within the Jurisdiction of the DOJ to look into Civil Rights violations, which is what most police issues arise from. Since President Trump took office, the Justice Department has publicly announced only one pattern-or-practice investigation into a police department. Additionally, the Justice Department has another tool for working with police departments to implement large-scale reforms, but the Trump administration has rolled that back as well. For many years, the Collaborative Reform Initiative in its Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) spearheaded police reform by “undertaking assessments of a law enforcement agency’s operations, providing recommendations for reform, and assisting the agency in implementing those reforms.” Through this program, which had widespread support from police chiefs across the country, the Justice Department avoided complex and lengthy litigation by working with cities to reform policing practices. The COPS’s Office worked with cities including Las Vegas, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, and San Francisco. In 2017, however, Sessions announced that the COPS Office would abandon this practice and discontinue the significant work that began under the Obama administration. At that time, 16 police departments across the country had signed up for the program. According to the New York Times, the “initiative was popular enough among chiefs that there was a monthslong wait to join it; now, the Justice Department has told at least one city that it must file a public records request even to see the program’s research on its police department.” Just being vocal about doing something instead of saying "white people get killed by police too" would have done something to move towards a solution. Power does not make you a leader, but leadership produces power. Trump has shown himself to be incapable of leading. But as I said in May, no civil strife would not have produced the distraction from Trump's failure on the virus, what has occurred is to his advantage and Kellyanne Conway said it out loud today. |

If any of you thinks this all ends peacefully, we are fast approaching the reconciliation point of no return.

Even in Iraq aka combat zone me or my men did not have the latitude to shoot an Iraqi because he might be armed or I thought he was reaching for something Sad that in the united states Police rules of engagement are weaker than one in a war zone against their own citizens I am fully aware of the responsibilities of wearing a weapon and taser in public plainclothes walking convicted felons from the car, down public streets and thru hospital lobby's eyeballing everyone on the off chance that today's the day . Is his victim here an angry family member a rival gang? Going to act.. So I see my criticisms of the shooting not form the view of some guy on the couch who has no clue . But from a position of experience and a supervisor... nor iam I suggesting he was a bad person or bad officer. But some mistakes cant be ingnored or undone with arguments like the guy had a record or he beat his wife . Or had a rape charge, or the color of their skin. thats just not fair treatment under the law . |
MSNBC just ran a couple telling video comparisons on how some white mass murderers are calmly and peacefully arrested and in the case of Charlestown Church killer, even taken to Burger King right after because he was hungry. The other one show cased a naked crazed killer of three, actually attacking a grounds keeper and yet the multiple police let him run around clearly a threat and all he gets is some pepper spray. The average white American has no clue the profiling and real potential danger young black men live with and the way it might impact their behavior in a stressful encounter with a white police officer which might give him the impression his life might be in danger. Easy for us white men and women living in our comfortable homes in the suburbs to say that black man should have just calmly given up, when we don’t understand the decades of abuse that might shade their instinctive reaction.
Did your white mom and dad after giving you the birds and the bees talk, sit you down and warn you about how your life may be taken from you in a second because of your skin color, live a year in their shoes and your opinion of these incidents might change. Again the rioting and property damage is wrong and plays right into Trumps play book, but there is a reason for concern. I’m not saying defund police, but they are protected from any criminal charges by contract in far to many municipalities. Trump won’t change anything because he to believes he is above the law as the nations top police officer. |

But we don't know if the guy was reaching for something, clearly you are with the not other factors mattering or determined by investigation. We are not having the conversation on what will really make strides to fix the system, we have people wanting to tear everything down because that will somehow be better - what a stupid effing thing to believe. We are not trying to get where facts dictate what happened we are where narrative writes what to believe. We can't wait until the facts say George Floyd was wrongly murdered (likely, but the legal system needs to decide) and too many people ignore that Mike Brown was found the aggressor We no longer take facts in the matter because "Hands Up Don't Shoot", meant to never happened with Michael Brown yet almost everyone thinks he said that and people shout it at every protest. And people then went out and executed cops in many places because reacting before understanding the facts. Other black people have died because wrong decisions by cops and sheer stupidity, and it is wrong, happnes to white preople too. What is it by demographics? Is it outsized then too? The vast majority of everyone thinks that Quote:

Here's some insanity for you
Aubrey Huff: “Kyle Rittenhouse is national treasure.” Ann Coulter: “I want him as my president.” Tucker Carlson: “How shocked are we that 17-year-olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would?” |

I don't adhere to the rambles of those people you mention. IDGAF He should never have been there. This is HIS fault and Local Gov's fault. Local Law enforcement should not be over run by mostly peaceful protestors (a/k/a rioters) An angry (armed) mob was running down breaking property |

According to the National Academy of Sciences...if you look at the number of actual unarmed people killed by police by race... if you compare that to national %s of race, it happens to blacks disproportionately. If you compare it to the % of race that live in big cities (where most of these encounters happen), it's not disproportionate. The entire democratic party, including all the liberals here and in the media, are acting no differently than Al Sharpton did at his worst. As soon as we hear there is an encounter, we scream racist assassination, before we know any facts. Facts don't matter. Winning in November matters. That's all that matters. |
Tweety's re-election strategy seems to be to argue that only Donald Trump can save America from Donald Trump’s America.
It's like if I’m at a restaurant and I ask for them to send over the not yet hired manager so I can complain about the lousy service I’m getting. Confusing, right? It makes as much sense as the Republicans somehow trying to blame Biden for the mess Trump’s made of the country. https://www.keepamericagreat.com/ |

You keep trying to misuse stats to deny anything is wrong. This is what this is all about. |

The last presidency capably brought us out of the Great Recession, that recovery lasted until what will likely be known as the Trump Depression. Trump, thanks to high deficits in his first two full years in office followed by massive federal expenditures aimed at offsetting the economic effects of the coronavirus crisis, is on pace to add more to the national debt in his first term than Obama. But I'm sure Tweety will claim that he will cut taxes if reelected. My daughter lives in Paris, and in Europe the joke is Where's stupid? It's right between Canada and Mexico The whole world is laughing at us |

They tried tasing the guy, they gave him god knows how many lawful orders to comply. They didn't walk up behind him and shoot him in the back of the head. If he had allowed them to arrest him without resisting, what do you think the chances are that he would have been shot? Interesting you call him unarmed, when we now know there was a knife in the car, and he was trying to get into the car, so could well have been going for the knife. Also, if he gets in the car behind the wheel, he is no longer unarmed. Always, put the most pro-liberal spin on everything. Always. How about the cops who get assassinated for being cops? Have you ever, once, posted about them? |
