being killed by the Police or how police treat the public is Huge ..
the dont tread on me flag isn't just for Trump rallies or 2A protest
it applies to police killing and treatment they represent the Government the authority AKA tyranny
but some here thinks that doesn't apply to police actions
cruel, unreasonable, or arbitrary use of power or control. sound about right ... just because the above actions may be seen as miniscule threat by those with no knee on their neck .. doesn't mean its not a valid sentiment

""miniscule threat" who are you to make that"
Let's go really, really slow here.
I don't make it a miniscule threat. The data says it is.
9 unarmed blacks were killed by the police in the whole country in 2019. Nine.
18 blacks were murdered in Chicago (one city) on May 32 (one day).
Are you going to tell us with a straight face, that urban violence isn't a much bigger threat to blacks, than cops? Based on what?
I go where the facts take me. The facts here, couldn't be more clear.

Ph#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g-A, the PROBLEM was in the MINNEAPOLIS PD, who should have gotten rid of the INDIVIDUAL LEO, who had DOZENS, yes DOZENS of complaints, write ups, incidents, call it what you want. He was a BAD APPLE! Put his azz in a cell and throw the key away. I saw enough on the video. So has the world.... But don't condemn the whole system of LAW ENFORCEMENT... An overhaul and review of each and every force might be in the cards, no doubt. Get rid of the bad guys. Perfect opportunity to out them now, without risking the unwritten rules of the police brotherhood. But defunding???? Come on. The country has gone mad....

and while one is too many, it’s not an epidemic. it doesn’t even approach the impact of urban violence within the black community. not even close.

It’s really incredible that even now you continue to fail to realize these are different things.

I think he realizes it, that's his point.
If Black Lives truly do matter, why are we putting maximum effort to fix something that cost 9 lives in all of 2019 in the entire U.S. and so little effort into trying to fix something that cost 18 lives, last weekend, in just 1 U.S. City.
It's a valid question

Even Obamacouldnt fix Chicago.his own state....
This selective outrage has folks temporarily twisted.
Black lives matter
But mostly only because they have been victims of a white citizen.
When they kill each other it is something to ignore
Shift focus and the libs play along.

Honest to God, I wonder if I will live long enough to once hear a liberal say, "man did my side blow that, we were so stupid."
We can do both, but we don't. We ignore the obvious, more serious problem...and we focus on the smaller problem, and worse, we do it in a way that makes us hate each other. We create all this division, over something that's not even a rounding error.
Why would we do that? Why would the people who run one party, create all this division, over something so rare? To help win elections.
And every time we go down this road, innocent cops get murdered. We know that will be a consequence. But still, the liberals parade out Al Sharpton when this happens. The people pulling the strings know what's going to ensue, there will be tremendous cost and almost no benefit to black lives. But they do it to get the mob good and worked up.
