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

Engage tinfoil hats.

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.
Said story made front page of WaPo.

Another story blames lead paint.

Cops made an offer the prisoners couldn't refuse, and the prisoners made a deal with the devil. It's the common Prisoner's Dilemma, which I'm sure has come up in the Monty Hall thread. Wait until those prisoners find out that the cops won't hold up their end of the bargain, as there's no advantageous reason to do so. The only people who will really know the truth has just been mentioned, and just as you said, anyone who tries to claim the truth will be declared "tinfoil hats".

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.

Wow, I never thought you would reject the legacy of Great Society programs!

Although, to paraphrase, we fought the war on poverty using the wrong weapons, and as a result, poverty won.... :(

Guess again, friend.

Poverty craters through the years of the New Deal and Great Society.

It's first significant and protracted increase begins in 1981.

It's next protracted decrease starts in 1993.

It's next significant and protracted increase begins in 2000.

But I'm sure all of that historical data is just a coincidence. :rolleyes:

Policies designed solely to benefit the 1% consistently increase the number of Americans in poverty; policies to ameliorate poverty decrease it. Shocker.

The first time listed is under Reagan, the second time listed is under Clinton.
 
Re: Cops 2: Pay No Attention to the Rioters Behind the Curtain

Read it carefully. The first is an increase. The seconds is a decrease.

Excuse me, I should've worded it better. I was speaking only to the protracted increases - 1981 and 2000.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but there seems to be some sort of connection between those dates. But I just can't seem to see it right now.

Reverse upside-down Fibonacci sequence. Duh.

(Surprisingly, Fibonacci passes the spell-checker.)

1981 was the stagflation "fix", and 2000 was the start of the dot-com bust.

As for the "living in a state with less blacks" argument...how about you narrow that down to cities? Using MN, as an example, once you get north of about Hinckley (hour north of metro area of the Twin Cities), the black population decreases GREATLY. Go to the NW corner of MN, and you'll find people sounding like Brendan Fraser in "Blast From The Past:" Oh my lucky stars! A negro!

As for the tinfoil hat self-injury...how could one actually prove that? Is forensics good enough? I doubt they are good enough to find if it was self-inflicted or not. Right now, I'm tossing it aside as nothing but click-bait. Again, I hope I'm wrong.

It explains the Kennedy Assassination anyway. Suicide.
