George Floyd Protest/Riots

No it means if the powers that be are pulling the levers on some sophisticated system of racism, then the system isnt that good and they arent that powerful.

I think you are misinterpreting both of those elections. The evil faceless system elected Obama on purpose, and then used his white half to control him and keep the Super Secret Racist Fun Club intact.

There is such a thing as beating a dead horse.

It isn't my or your business to tell people not to peacefully protest whenever they want.

It was your business literally two weeks ago.

Nope. Only thing I said is I thought it was a bad idea to allow armed, pissed off protesters in a state capital building. Didn't care if they protested one bit.

I personally think this is the saddest and worst of the cases currently being protested. Though for some reason it seems to have been the least publicized.

This can't really be serious

DO IT! I want to watch the little social experiment unfold .

Yes, a much more reputable source. The difference being the Blaze claimed all council members said that in their headline in the tweet. The ABC source correctly stated it was some council members discussing disbanding and reforming the MPD. Still, a pretty bold idea to be discussing.

The fact anyone is floating such an extreme plan is pretty disturbing.

I'm not telling anyone to do or not do anything. Just giving my opinion.

Ehhh, it's total ******** because no-knock raids shouldn't be a tactic unless we're chasing a killer or something...but since it is a tactic, this is probably explained by just an honest, sad, confused mistake by scared cops. There is no explanation for the Floyd death. It's totally shocking and it's on camera.

No knock raids shouldn't be a thing. However if someone just tries breaking through my door without announcing who they are I have a right to defend. If the police didn't announce themselves i don't understand how her husband can be charged.

Look at this lady. Luckily there is a woke white woman there to tell her the proper way to be black so she doesn't look too stupid.

I want to hug and buy this woman a beer at the same time for truth talking and not being afraid to say it out loud . Freakin white Karen is splainin to this black woman why she is oppressed . Smdh .

Because it's Trump, and we know a thing or two about his character, it comes across as being sanctimonious. It just looks phony... unless you really do believe that Trump reads The Holy Bible? In which case, you are quite gullible.

When have liberals ever cared about character?

There are guys in prison for years under pretty much the same circumstances. Cory Maye got a death sentence that he was headed towards until people started bringing attention to his case 5 years after conviction. He eventually was allowed to plead down to manslaughter and got out for time served after 10 freaking years.

Do you think it's the rioting and the looting that accomplished this? Maybe I missed it, but those are the things I saw people say would accomplish nothing. At least nothing positive. I stick by that.

There is no way to know, but go ahead and pick I suppose.

I feel that way about every politician. Biden isn't going to Floyd's funeral out of respect. He's trying to win votes.

Unfortunately the rioting and looting is the only thing that enacts change.

Bull ****.

I am impressed, somewhat surprised, at the turnout and tenor for the protest going on in Nashville right now. So far, this is how it's supposed to be done.

Nope. Only thing I said is I thought it was a bad idea to allow armed, pissed off protesters in a state capital building. Didn't care if they protested one bit.

I was told we're not allowed to disagree with how people choose to protest.

But if we were, I'd actually agree with you.

Yup you're right. My bad.
