Topic: Riots after Death of Man in Minneapolis Police Custody - page 13. (Read 4451 times)

I received messages that 3 of my comments on this thread were deleted.  Upon review, they are all factual information. So the bias is apparent, facts don't matter. 2 decades of actual experience in this subject don't matter.

No reason to post truths here anymore.  Y'all have fun.

But to keep this one 'on topic'......  I believe Minneapolis can burn. Riot and wreck your community you fools

And to address the above post, of course more black males age 18-35 are killed by police, in disparity from population make up,  they are responsible for +/- HALF of all violent crime although comprising only 1.4% of the US population.
   If HALF of ALL VIOLENT crime Police respond to is being committed by black males age 18-35, then they are making up 50% of all police contacts, but yet more white boys get killed.  Seems the whiteys should be rioting.

None of these facts have been denied, contradicted, or ignored by the media or politicians.  In fact, they are part of why we are angry.

1. More unarmed white people are killed than blacks.  

This is true because there are more white people.  The issue is the proportion seen in the graphic below.   This stat should also alarm people who don't even care about black lives.  Everyone should be concerned about police brutality.  There is an underlying problem with general policing.  Racism is an additional problem embedded into the entire system so just like any other systemic failure (such as COVID, diabetes, etc), black people will be affected disproportionately.  


2. Chicago (like many american cities) has a high violent crime rate.

This is true and also more reason for police reform/defunding/abolition.  The police are responsible for fighting crime so when crime is high, the police have failed and nowhere is that history of failure documented as much as Chicago.  The police department has a deep history of corruption, organized crime, and racism.  Who do you call when the police are criminals?  no one.   When people don't trust the police, criminals can operate freely and that is what you have in Chicago.  

Its time to take a ton of money out of police departments and put it towards the many things we know will help prevent crime instead of perpetuate it.

Got this in an email. So, somebody show me if the following statistics are wrong, and where.

----------

According to the “ FBI Uniform Crime Report and the Washington Post “  last year 2019 there were 10 million arrests by police...   yes ...    10  MILLION

Out of those 10 MILLION arrests there were  1,004  police officer involved fatalities.

Out of those 1,004 police officer involved fatalities   41   were unarmed individuals.

Out of those  41  police officer involved unarmed fatalities -  now you might find it hard to believe I know, but out of 41 deaths, now hear this...


Now one is one too many but  41 out of  10  million is remarkable !

 
Now...  how many police officers were killed in the line of duty — take a wild guess. ?

89  POLICE officers were killed - but where is the media on that one ?

Just to bring it home to you.   Take another guess at how many people were shot in CHICAGO just this pass weekend.

In Chicago  82   people were shot within a 48 hour period.   Of those 82 people  19  people died !

Yes you got it.   In Chicago alone - last weekend alone there were more black people killed by (wait for it...) more black people, than were killed by police officers - in all of last year - 2019

The radical democrat and lying media hypocrisy is unbelievable - their message to the American public is completely and utterly “ FALSE “ -  “ DISHONEST “ and “ DISGUSTING “ on every level !

Do not believe these facts - please research and see for yourself !  

Thank you to Bernard Kerik, Former NYPD Pokice Commissioner for sharing this information.  



 

Update to this story - The DA announced 11 charges on the officer involved, including felony murder. The second officer involved in this incident also faces 3 charges.

It would be exciting to hear how many of those males are black as compared with the females that are black, etc.

It wouldn't be the first time. This place is a bastion of free speech, until the moderators decide to selectively interpret the rules. Your post is clearly on topic regarding police violence and the Minneapolis riots, but I can already hear Flying Hellfish say "Yeah but gender wasn't related to this case. Gender is just a social construct anyway."

I've had this deleted along with some other posts so will re post without comment this time so I cannot be accused of infringing terms and conditions and not complying with posting rules.If it is deleted again it means someone is moderating with personal bias

people hate the police, because the police protects the people from themselves.

Positive indeed.

IMO the response to Floyd's tragic murder has been on-net rather positive. I don't like the focus on race, but the ability of police to literally get away with murder (and even more easily get away with a bit less than murder) has long been a huge problem. As an ancap, I love the fact that "defund police!" is becoming a war cry of some, even if most of the people behind this aren't thinking about it in nearly the same way I am.

That said, I recently learned that the family of George Floyd is being represented by the lawyer Ben Crump. Ben Crump also represented the family of Trayvon Martin, and is responsible for successfully spreading a huge amount of false information in that case. Most people think that Zimmerman in that case was unfairly acquitted, when in fact Zimmerman was clearly acting in self-defense, and most of the arguments offered by Crump were complete fabrications which the media ate up but which the jury correctly and thankfully rejected. He even got away with a crazy witness-swap thing; see The Trayvon Hoax by Joel Gilbert. Since Crump is involved here, we're all probably about to hear a whole lot of complete bullshit fabricated by Crump and amplified by the media, if we haven't already. I think that Floyd actually was murdered by the police, so it's a real shame that Crump is going to turn this into the biggest circus he possibly can.

He simply dont have a character to be a president. Not everyone can be a country president, so that is not a fail. It is a fail for those that nominated and elected him. He is simply guy that people and press dont like. And he is incapable to fix that.

There it is. The single most ill-conceived notion Ive seen on the internet today.

Guess how many people will sign up to be a cop when you take away their right of self defense?

Congratulations, you just allowed criminals to win.


And this, from the same party that wants to ban private gun ownership by saying, "only the cops should have guns."

I would say it is exactly the opposite.  Psychopaths tend to be expert at using emotion.  At least the high-functioning ones do.  Since they are, by definition, lacking in some of the normal emotions (esp, empathy) they tend to study intently what makes normal people tick and thus obtain unique insights into how emotion works.  A characteristic of psychopaths IS that they use emotive methods and often extremely effectively.

A 'truther' would tend to lean most heavily on logic and reason.  Since they are usually not psychopaths emotion does get the better of them fairly often though.  When I think of what the psychos have done to ordinary people with their 'waves' ('covid-19' scamdemic, staged Floyd killing, etc) I go through brief periods of rage.  I actually do get 'triggered'.  But it only lasts a few seconds before I get it under control because I know (from experience) how detrimental blind rage is toward a goal of accomplishing anything productive.
