People like to be angry for the sake of it. This is with a lot of political issues, such as abortion, immigration, and now police brutality.
My personal take on it is that there is more a poverty issue rather than a racism issue. Black people are disproportionally represented in the poor community, so it is no wonder black people are going to be disproportionally represented in the crime rates, and thus in police murders. That's not saying those police murders are justified, like with George's, but it's not solely a racism problem. White people are killed too by police officers.
It is strange to me. It seems to be political and for the most it seems to be people being offended in behalf of others.
There seems to be double standards, when a white British solider was hacked to death with a machete on the streets of London we were told that this was the actions of one bad person and not their entire race/religion. When a bomber killed 22 people in at a concert in Manchester we were again told not to blame his religion or race as this was the actions of one bad person.
But now one policeman acts badly we are to not being told that this is the actions of one bad person but of a racist society?
It’s not just one police man acting badly. George Floyd’s death is at the forefront of the protests right now because his death was recent, senseless, traumatic, and documented. However, that does not mean that this is JUST about George Floyd. In George Floyd’s death alone there were multiple police men on the scene that not only stood by and witnessed his death, but were accomplices to it. I’m pretty sure that there is video evidence of two other officers kneeling on his back and legs along with the one on his neck. I believe the fourth officer only stood and watched, AND DID NOTHING TO HELP HIM AS HE CRIED OUT FOR HIS LIFE. In this situation alone there are NOT ONE, BUT FOUR BAD COPS. Now if you do a quick google search you will find numerous new reports of police officers shooting, beating, tasing, and macing innocent black people, unarmed black people, and black people who are NOT resisting arrest. Clearly this not just one bad apple spoiling the bunch.
No!!! You speak of 400 years I speak of long before that, Hannibal, the moorish invasions of Spain, the Barbary Pirates. Your atrocities against us only stopped when we conquered you, but we have always believed that your lives matter that is why believe it or not slaves ate better than free blacks back in Africa. When we colonized Africa we brought medicine and technology, South Africa under apartheid was one of the most prosperous countries on the continent. The fact that you have such a hard time saying "All Lives Matter" even as you kill us far more than we kill you and black pimps enslave white women demonstrates that culturally, most black people have failed to learn from history. Therefore at this time though I didn't vote for Trump we have nothing to talk about sir.
I repect black people I don't believe how they treated him was right but everyone is taken it too far. White men get shot too by police and they are unarmed its not a race thing its a corrupted police issue. Majority of police are not like that thou so don't be blaming police.
According to FBI statistics blacks murder over twice as many whites per year as vice verce. And somehow the left is claiming black people are "hunted" or "killed for existing" as they openly cheer the mass racial violence ongoing in cities against whites.
There is no "healing" for this country, only civil war.
"RationalMale" such a loser name, you must have lots of sex
Anyway, read a book about the history of North America and a book about poverty. Any book, just any of them because they aren't propaganda like what you normally consume on television and you may learn something instead of just repeating talking points off YouTube and cable television, trust me it's nice to learn something I know it is hard to read words when you can just let someone tell you what to repeat but just 3 pages a day and you'll get there eventually
I guess it's hard to just come out and say "dirty whites deserve to be murdered, poor blacks." You're like one of those sad people that can't say anything themselves, they just link a 40 minute youtube video going "it's alll thurr!" You poor child.
@RationalMale none of that made sense at all but I shouldn't expect people like you to speak any sense
I can't get over that name though, "RationalMale" I would say you are going to look back on that name when you're older and think how embarrassing but you're 28 according to your profile so you're just going to be an angsty teenage boy for life it looks like
I do feel sorry for you though, you're defending the state of affairs that prevents you from getting a proper education on your state of affairs so you resort to YouTube propaganda and cable news propaganda because it is free, vigorous cycle over there so I feel for you so I should stop being condescending it's not your fault. Still try reading a book, it'll be good for you :)
@HartleyB kid did you finally get that B+ on your remedial GED classes yet? You're unwilling to face reality. But hey, it's all fun and games if you don't know anyone being randomly beaten or their workplace/home vandalized, right? Must be nice to be a sociopath.
Yeah and according to Exonerations over the past 40 years innocent black men are over 7 times more likely to go to jail for murder than innocent white people. Don't quote statistics if you aren't going to show how badly the police are at doing their jobs. And would you like to explain who is more likely to be misidentified for crimes? Or who the police are more likely to kill? Or who is more likely to get longer sentences for crimes?
Did I say it was safe or did I say the police misidentify the "criminal" more often than not? The fact is you tried to point out black people have a higher murder rate but you failed to account for the fact that it's most likely less murderers who aren't caught because the justice system will take any black guy who doesn't have an air tight alibi. In cases where the victim is white you'll find the innocent black men are misidentified even more and less likely to get off the case.
@Hypnos0929 actually blacks do tend to get longer sentences. Judges aren't nearly as merciful to repeat offenders as first time offenders. Meanwhile one of the blacks who murdered tessa majors pled out and will get 6-18 months.
Black men have been killed by police before, but this is different with the new administration because of how they are handling the riots. Trump has been violating the first amendment of the constitution by attacking peaceful protesters and attacking the media. The USA is turning into a third world country like China or North Korea.

I find it quite sad people like you are making the into a race issue when it's just a police violence is you that happens now and then and all the comps were arrested you guys should be happy and thinking the police officers.
You go into a rant about slavery you do realize the 1st slave in America were actually white right? You look through everything through the lens of racism you're a racist please get over it so we can start fixing these problems
It was not only over the fake money. He was likely on drugs and in possession at the time, while assumedly having driven to the location. Not to mention resisting arrest. The coroner did not find neck damage, so he could have died from heart-related causes. And I find these riotous criminal looters disgusting.
Usually I advocate for substantive discourse, but then there are people like you... and I just have to ask you some questions because i rarely get the chance to meet people with the intelligence of a dog
1. Do you always have to consciously breathe or does it just happen autonomously like everyone else?
2. When you wake up in the morning, are you happy with yourself? Or do you actually feel sad being so dumb?
3. Do you feel smart when you try to justify state murder for using fake currency and then just making other assumptions about the matter and still coming to the conclusion that an unarmed non violent human was murdered slowly and painfully but police to justify it?
Sadly, the arson, riots and looting have made this no longer about George Floyd's tragic death. Those antifa-like snowflakes gleefully looting and burning couldn't give a rat's ass for him or his mourning family.
I agree with what you've written but I do not see you have ANY empathy towards women at all. I guess that would make you empathetic towards your own causes only.
Yes. I have written both sides of the opinion. Read "Ladies, you are the Prize" or mytakes in opposition to "MGTOW". read through the comments of men attacking me for being a feminist.
I think George floyd should still be alive and that police officers should be background checked and that that police officer that killed George floyd was rasist
Police officers already do have background checks though, and they are in fact VERY thorough. I applied to a couple of departments in my area a few years ago. The larger offices had applications that were 40+ pages long. They'd want to know every address you've ever lived at, every job you've ever worked, your education, your finances, everything. One department took three months just to call me in for a written and physical test and then another four months after for an interview.
Also worth noting, Derek Chauvin had been the department since 2001 and had a long history of complaints. And the police chief in Minneapolis, who for the record has been so since 2017, is black. He'd sued the department in 2007 for discrimination and had even been head of the Internal Affairs office several years later. I mention this just to highlight that the fact that it's a situation involving a white cop and a black civilian by itself doesn't prove anything.
we'll never heal as long as the BLM crowd thinks that burning down neighborhoods and killing innocent people is an acceptable response to a crime. That's just the way it is. Killing cops, killing retired black police officers, killing children in burning buildings by not allowing the fire department access is unacceptable. Until that shit stops, there is no room for any discussion or growth among anyone.
A unarmed man was killed for no reason by a police officer the officer has been arrested and will await trial that says it all what does race have to do with any of it
George Soros said, “I’m going to bring down the United States by funding Black Hate groups. We’ll put them into a mental trap and make them blame white people. The Black community is the easiest to manipulate.”
It's sad but out of it his death has a chance to change the world. I'm sure he wouldn't trade his life for this but at least it wasn't wasted. Shame his girl like so many others won't have he father when she needs him
Meh, I live out in the country let the city rats kill one another. Me I got my guns and sensors with pressure switches that tell me via rings what one is going off long before they know I already know.

truth
trump is not the answer to our problems
if you know and understand who he is, you will agree, he's NOT the answer to the countries problems
if you still think he is. You are delusional

Im confused about what you are saying. Or the relevance. I suggest you review my my takes supporting women.

They need to stop hiring white people (especially those that come from suburban areas with a lack of diversity) to police black communities

How America heals?
Register and then VOTE in November (Hint: NOT for Trump)

A post of yours I agree with.
Yay!
That's what I said Yay 😉

Looting, rioting, burning cities, and attacking innocent people and their businesses just breeds further contempt and drowns out the actual tragedy.
