    Just like Ferguson, Memphis plans to release the tapes on a Friday night. Ferguson it was news of no indictment on Friday night
    A Friday release will provide a weekend of peaceful protests, including the arson
    Better to release on a Monday 5am
    Is this intentional to get the maximum street responce

    Maybe the government should do something about police brutalizing citizens.

    let's be honest, if it was released on Monday, you'd be bitching about how it was "intentionally done to cause maximum weekday/business disruption".

    Like every other case of police overreach this video will show a good level of resistance from the victim
    Resisting was the trigger of the abuse

    A date and time needs to be picked to release this information.
    Do you think a dark Friday night release is the best option
    What time would you recommend this release

    Unless the law and police policy for unarmed resistance is death your statement is pointless.

    If someone gets so triggered by unarmed resistance they have to break the law and police policy they shouldn't be a cop.

    bad news are often released friday evening to avoid business disruption (look at stock market or ppl getting fired). If people are going to peacefully protest and disrupt traffic, then Friday makes perfect sense.

  8. If you can show me here:

    https://www.findlaw.com/state/tenne...=Possible Penalties,years, fines up to $5,000.

    where resisting arrest is punishable by beating to death you can maybe continue to support police in their constant violation of the law and Constitution which you hold so dear...

    They don’t want to disrupt the economy of the workweek and on the weekend people can choose not to be out and about.
     
  10. The dems are doing a lot of abstract thinking these days to find racism even when they cannot find it due to the inconvenient facts..

    Earlier this week I noticed a column in the lefty LA times where there was an argument being made that the mass shooting in the Asian community was not a racial attack on Asians BUT IT STILL FELT LIKE ONE AND THAT IS WHAT MATTERS. The reality is that shooting was done by a lifelong member of the Asian community there. Very inconvenient facts for the lefterrhoids.

    Now I see more of that happy horseshit kind of tripe from Van Jones/CNN wherein five black officers kill a black man but it is still whitey's fault for training cops/making black cops believe that blacks are bad and inferior.

    Welcome to the re-segregation of America. Absolutely every issue is framed by what the skin color of the people involved is. Biden's America.

    Opinion: The police who killed Tyre Nichols were Black. But they might still have been driven by racism
