What a bunch of bullshit.
You should be ashamed of yourself, anonymous coward.
I suppose you will be posting your real name/address/place of employment if you wanna use that argument
If you support BLM you have joined a hate filled cause based on a lie. How many unarmed black men were killed by police officers in 2019? 9. More blacks died of drowning than by police officers. You're part of a violent, Marxist group whose goal is political revolution. BLM originally arose out of the Michael Brown shooting and the Ferguson, MO police officer was exonerated by the Obama DoJ. Brown attempted to kill the officer by wrestling for his gun, then ran away from the car, turned and charged the officer. That officer had to defend his life from that violent criminal who was attempting to murder the officer. You must understand that.
@dc-refugee The reason why you are a fucknut is because you lump all of those cases together, like they are one. Michael Brown was a dickwad and died in the process of being a dickwad. But in numerous instances, that wasn't the case. Sometimes absolutely no crime was taking place. In others, it was a rather minor infraction, like in the George Floyd case. He was handcuffed for a phony $20 bill. OK, whatever. But then he was physically abused and eventually killed for some reason that nobody can understand. I guarantee you have done worse than that and you weren't murdered. So here you are, allowed to post your ridiculous bullshit and we all have to suffer. You are 100x worse than that guy and here you are, torturing all of us with you irrational hatred.
According to the US Department of Justice, African Americans accounted for 52.5% of all homicide offenders from 1980 to 2008, with Whites 45.3% and "Other" 2.2%. The offending rate for African Americans was almost eight times higher than Whites, and the victim rate six times higher. Most homicides were intraracial, with 84% of White victims killed by Whites and 93% of African American victims killed by African Americans.
What you also need to understand is that, statistically speaking, police killings of unarmed black men is rare. In 2019 there were 9 cases. Blacks killed 2,600 blacks in 2018 according to the FBI Uniform Crime Report.
Cowards are those who refuse to acknowledge the truth when under tremendous social pressures not to or those who fail to act on behalf of good against evil when faced with danger. I will assume that you are simply misinformed and hopefully we can get you to a better place in terms of the information you have.
You are being bombarded with misinformation by the mainstream media and you are under tremendous social pressure to act as if American police officers are committing limitless violence against innocent blacks and that this is directly causal to the lower socioeconomic status of blacks in America. This narrative is all a lie. If you believe it and if you tell this lie to others in the face of facts that prove it to be false, then you in fact are the coward. Instead of accepting the truth and then trying to turn that into positive action, you chose to submit to the social pressures exerted upon you.
Floyd wasn't strangled--the cop putting a knee on his neck did not cut off air. He was high on fentanyl and meth. Fentanyl causes you to be unable to breath. The clerk who called the cops said he was drunk and saying he couldn't breathe.
A true coward will willingly and gleefully spit facts and figures hoping that his/her audience knows nothing of the cause and effect.
We can start with the over policing of select demographics or voter manipulation or defunding education or the privatization of the prison system and its removal of rehabilitation programs. Then there is also the normalization of the rver increasing price of higher education and the indoctrination that occurs within their walls. These only scratch the surface of the problem. But we complain about the ignorant/stupid people that dont think for themselves. We complain about the violence and the cowardice of people who were regardless of race that believe that rioting is protesting. We spend so much time hating eachother that we ignore that we agreed to make it this way over years of complacency, manipulation, and bribery. But it's ok to point out a number or a stat when the real problem is that it still fucking happened. @dc-refugee you should do some research that doesn't involve the name of a politician. Humble yourself before the reality that our world is fucked up and it's our fault and our ancestors faults. But our job and our childrens jobs to fix it. This shit starts with. But I bet it feels good being able to tell someone that thier wrong because of numbers because you dont have to think about emotions of others or the geopolitical impact of a leaders actions, as long as it makes you look smart.
@Knuxx
I take no pleasure in the data I cite. Which numbers that I cited are incorrect? What is the cause and effect that you'd like to point out? In Baltimore, the police backed off the streets in the wake of Freddie Gray and it resulted in a huge spike in homicides. So, consider charges of over policing of certain communities carefully.
The price of education has outpaced inflation for decades which has negatively affected all races of people but blacks have the advantage in getting race based grants and admissions.
I am well aware of the difference between protesting and rioting. I attended a protest in my city. The protest is where people stand with signs and talk to each other about what can change to improve our city. Rioting, which I also observed, is where people throw bricks through store windows, loot the goods inside, burn buildings down, burn the American flag, beat people, and so on.
You're a coward if you're blaming whites for blacks problems. Deep down you know it's a lie.
@dc-refugee since you didn't notice I blame all parties involved. The people being used as well as the manipulators.
Did you read my response. All parties are responsible and the means to really fix this problem is through education. Unfortunately higher education has been warped into indoctrination camps. Where free speech is frowned upon. What change fo you hope to realize while ignoring such a major problem within our society. You can't put a number to teaching hate or reinforcement hate but it's possible mask it behind numerical blame. Sorry I can't hold your hand and show you everything that I mean with a slide show. I have to take care of my kids. When I have time for stuff like that again I'll gladly educate you on the emotional impact of a situation when a people accept handouts vs working to earn a living and learning to improve their lives.
The way I see it karma is coming back to bite us for our complacency and we need to work as a people to repair. It ok to talk numbers and money but that doesn't heal shit.
Awe the little soy boy is maaaaddd
@Knuxx It sounds to me like we actually agree on higher education. I want every university to adopt the "Chicago Statement" on free speech, and if they receive federal tax dollars then it should be mandatory by federal law. But, universities limiting free speech and focusing on social justice indoctrination has nothing to do with the FBI uniform crime report. Blacks have committed a disproportionate percentage of crime and especially violent crime for decades. Blacks commit far more crimes against whites than the reverse. I am very interested in all ideas anyone has to reduce the crime regardless of race.
You really think these people care? They are selfish, shameless, hood rats. They certainly don't give two squirts of piss about this George Floyd character.
Not the most efficient thing to do, or at least I wouldn't think so...
I didn't know that rioters hung out at GaG.
Thanks for the info.
Kinda sounds like you're taking advantage of a shitty situation to push a political agenda.
It's simple. Our government is letting masked lunatics torch cities like we deserve it as penace. Why should the rest of us play this game?
It's also rather delicate, unless you're insinuating that they should just send in the national guard and slaughter all the rioters. The goal is to end it with as few bodies as possible, so rolling in there with force is a last resort.
ABSOLUTELY
Dropping bodies is a good way to fan the flames. Make them into martyrs, it's a slippery slope.
Aaaand letting them win and gain steam to go attack more cities is?
Like I said, it's a delicate situation. Obviously, the riots need to stop, but killing them all only creates a much bigger problem.
As MLK said “riots are the language of the unheard”
Oh and guess what the police are the ones also involved in the violence, looting and vandalism, and yes the government really sucks that they can’t even protect their own country
But MLK ain't wisdom. It's just an opinion.
Which is stupid. Just because he was right on most points doesn't mean he was perfect, and that quote is the perfect example of it.
Riots is the language of retarded assholes who go on a destroying spree on innocent people's belonging.
"Don't believe everything you read on the internet" - Abraham Lincoln
Hopefully some of the unheard start speaking that language at your house, dumb-dumb.
Just leaving this here
Yep 👍
Don't forget baltimore
Add DC to that list.
Your message would be true if you didn't force your agenda
do you believe that if you're not protesting, that, you're part of the problem?
This is one of the most idiotic things I've ever read. Im just glad you're probably not old enough to vote
Good mytake
Interesting.
rioters are stupid
