Re: Cops 2: Pay No Attention to the Rioters Behind the Curtain

Dumb protester in NY was told suspect self inflicted wounds. Fox said unconfirmed. Racist said Fox is known for not reporting the truth. Does the ***** actually knows what happened. Leading from behind.
 
Re: Cops 2: Pay No Attention to the Rioters Behind the Curtain

All of the above are certainly valid. You could go back to President Eisenhower's warning, when he talked about the dangers of the military industrial complex. Also, you could trace it back to the drug prohibition in the 30's, as that is one of the primary reasons that the police state has escalated.

A couple of years ago, I decided to read the Declaration of Independence once again. For those not American or brainwashed by the system, the Declaration of Independence is a document that listed a number of grievances the colonists had with the rule of King George III, and because these grievances were not addressed, the colonists declared themselves to be free. There are about 25 grievances, and I decided to see if any of these grievances have been violated in modern day America. I was surprised to find that over half of them were. Give it a try sometime, see what sort of legislation applies to each grievance, and which administration enacted or popularized it. I was even able to apply Reagan to a couple of them.
The Blacks were free during the Declaration of Independence?

"He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. "

Hmm...the irony of those who hail from the states with the lowest per-capita population of blacks, being the most vocal in delivering pious lectures to the rest of us on "proper" race relations, based no doubt on extensive personal experience, eh?

Maine, 4th-lowest, 0.6 per hundred
Iowa, 13th-lowest, 2.0 per hundred
Alaska, 15th-lowest, 3.0 per hundred
Minnesota, 19th-lowest, 3.8 per hundred
Wisconsin, 21st-lowest, at 5.4 per 100

For some perspective,
Maryland, 46th-lowest, 26.7 per hundred
New York, 39th-lowest, 15.0 per hundred



Note, the list includes Washington DC as a "state" so that there are 51....DC has by far the highest at 57.2 per hundred, Mississippi the next-highest at 35.6 per hundred.
 
Re: Cops 2: Pay No Attention to the Rioters Behind the Curtain

Anon family member of a Balt officer coming forward. She's a sista. Gray allegedly injuring himself (or trying to). Alleged criminal (prisoner) saying the same story. This is a mess. This will not end well. I know what I want to believe, but right now...I think the cop(s) were in the wrong. I hope that *I* am the one in the wrong.

The preferred "narrative" at least doesn't fit, one cannot be arguing that a "racist white police force" in Baltimore is "oppressing" the black population. Police chief, mayor, district attorney are all black, police force is 40% black, population is 63% black, source not handy though I'm sure someone will quickly correct those statistics if they are off by much.

Wow. Really? A "you don't live with enough black people" defense?

Nope, not at all. Merely noticing the correlation, not drawing any inference from it.

Though your response is quite revealing, doncha think?
 
Re: Cops 2: Pay No Attention to the Rioters Behind the Curtain

Tonight is what SHOULD happen during a forced curfew. Gotta give props to the residents and the cops tonight.

But......................FREEDOMS!!!!:confused:

Gotta love the patriots here who love when government tells you you can't even step out of your own home.

Ah, but the government's not telling them.

Right-wing situational ethics: if I'm the target, it's "fascism." If you're the target, it's "law and order."

But as the Baltimore Sun has reported, there is documented evidence of a police force abusing and beating a civilian population, with no cause. Whether you would call it racist or not, it certainly shows a department abusing its authority.

That is baloney, and you know it.

It's abuse of the poors. Race just handily color-codes them.

I for one am absolutely shocked that when you treat the poors like garbage and siphon them into ghettoized neighborhoods with terrible schools from which they have no effective means of meeting their own needs or garnering formal political support to assist them, some of them resort to violence. That's just so tacky.
