So it seems MINN cops DO know how to deal with someone without shooting them... even when they are resisting arrest and putting an officer's life in danger.... https://www.comicsands.com/white-ma...GO4FklAjFmtX8EfX9f6RVbXDXmjcGXaUEHyCIsFT7rOb4 In the video, the perpetrator was already in his white pick-up truck, presumably blocked in by two police cruisers and an unidentified man holding a shotgun. One officer was standing on the running board of the truck, leaning into the driver's side window. It's unclear from the video if the officer was trying to arrest the man or if he was speaking to him about what happened. Moments later, the white truck began to drive erratically to try to leave the scene. The driver hit the police cruiser parked behind him and scraped the one in front of him before speeding off. The police officer who was leaning through the driver's window appeared to be stuck there. He was still hanging onto the side of the truck while all of this happened. When the truck raced out of the camera's shot, the police officer was still hanging onto the side. No shots were fired at the driver by any of the officers on scene. Do me a favor cops, either kill all of the people that "resist" arrest or none of them, but stop killing mainly the Black ones.
The problem of your ilk is that you sit on your sofas all day and label people things. Who cares whether you call me a racist? I don't. Nobody does. You just think you did society a service by calling out racism. It changes nothing. Of course you respond with "I did not say this, I did not say that". How about a big fat "fuck you, who cares what you feel"? There are problems in our society. The biggest problem today for black communities is not white police violence (81% of blacks strongly oppose police defunding or lesser police presence) or white racism. It's blacks killing blacks and its blacks and the indigenous not wanting to move at the same speed as the rest of society. The only question in the room should be : are we gonna let them move at their own speed at their own peril or are we gonna force them to do something they themselves apparently have no motivation of doing? Nobody in trashy white neighborhoods aspires to become a gun wielding drug dealer. Ask the black kids in poor black communities. Different motivations in life. You can move all 34 million or so blacks into Hollywood today and put 5 million into each bank account. In less than 1 year half of them will have pissed away every last penny and in 2 years half will end up back on the street.
You are the one who is now making claims about me without any evidence whatsoever. Quite hypocritical considering how critical you were of me. You're also flat out wrong, I'm not somebody who watches Tucker Carlson or Fox News. In fact, I lean left. Maybe you should take your own advice for logical posting and try to hold yourself to the same standards, because you're completely failing here. You fail to call out black people for something, after criticizing me for claiming you won't. You said, "quote where I said that". Well, I gave you a chance to do so and you ignored it. You say things to me like "get educated", when you present no evidence of any expertise. You're not able to counter anything. All you do is deflect and ask for more evidence. I at least bring up data when arguing. If you wish to refute my data with better data, please do so. However, rarely do you present any evidence of claims you make yourself. When I see you post, I definitely do not see some super logical intellectual, I see a person who does not approach issues with objective reasoning. I see somebody who is completely unable to look at situations through various angles. In this post you went completely off the rails with fallacious ad hominem attacks. Sorry, but narcissism is not a substitute for actually having to build your own case. White people are scared of black people in these neighborhoods. You know who else is equally, if not more scared of black people in these neighborhoods? Other black people. Why? Because most white people see it on the news everyday, black people actually live it everyday. Many want to leave, but don't see a way out. Let me be clear before you criticize me here. My data here is anecdotal. Is that good enough for you? Probably not. However, actually go out and try to do your own research so you can actually argue with better evidence. Cops are watching their backs, because they know the crime statistics in these neighborhoods. The stereotyping and prejudice that comes from this is different from the subhuman philosophy white people had about black people 100 years ago. Do those people still exist? Yes. However, they're on the fringe. So my argument is that undoing history is not the solution. Just as stopping smoking is not how you get rid lung cancer. I fully believe that if the crime doesn't significantly drop in black communities then the bias towards black people will persist.
You are so refreshingly optimistic toward guys like userque. I envy you for that. What I learned is that by large majority the extremist left rather engages in personal attacks than in valid arguments. It's constantly their feelings that matter and now they want to tell black communities that the white police force is the real enemy when in reality most blacks do not want any lesser police presence at all. Nobody here denies that white folk have things to contribute to make life better for ethnic minorities. But pretending the core issues do not lie with the black or indigenous communities is a pathological lie and nowhere evidenced by facts. So, stick to your own arguments but I am afraid you won't be able to change any of their minds because they made up their minds a long time ago. It's the white ghost who is the culprit and nobody can make them think otherwise. The denial gets me the most that blacks have no fault of their own misery and how other ethnic groups see them and treat them. Most of their problems are entirely self made. Every time you confront them with the fact that most every other ethnic group worked hard to overcome historic mistreatment and made a good life for themselves the entire chat goes dead silent and because they know it's true and they have no argument whatsoever to counter with. How could they, facts don't lie.
Thanks, but it's posters in general. Very few people on ET want to argue with data/facts/logic/reason. It's a lot of trolling/incitement/ad hominem attacks. Racial issues are particularly sticky. People just can't wait to label others a racist if they have a different opinion. I go through long periods without posting on here. I know I should be spending my time on something more beneficial, but I come here when I'm bored lol. I come and go with the trading cycle.
Well, let's be honest, you enjoy trolling/inciting conservatives lol. I call everybody out when I see it. I'm not here to join a side or make friends. I would be completely fine with every single poster on this board hating me. The only person I know for sure that's blocked me is FortuneTeller. Sometimes I'm not logged in so I get to see his gems. They're deeply missed.
Agree but if you pay close attention then it's the extremist left that constantly labels people racist. Did you notice that? It's a one way street really.
Yep, put everyone on ignore you disagree with. That's exactly what I am talking about. One side does not want to engage and solve issues, they just point fingers.
