George Floyd Protest/Riots

[Bigun]

Yeah the lessening in funding is happening because they were actually going to RAISE the police budget in most cities and slash the hell out of everything else. That's why all the defund the police stuff is happening. It's basically because of COVID. But go ahead and keep telling yourselves you need to arm because crazy communist black people are coming for you. What a joke.

Well, I mean watching black guys try and break the windows of a cancer hospital and laugh about it doesnt exactly give people the warm fuzzy. Especially the rhetoric and videos of attacking whites during the protest.

Ok, does retard Hippy Lettuce, retard Mexican Marlboros, or retard Medical Marijuana resonate better? Am I missing some modern slang reference that resonates? Irrespective of era, you're on something that is, well, retard.

ROFL Mexican Marlboros??

ROFL Mexican Marlboros??

I'm good for humor every once in awhile.

 

[BreatheUT]

Here go lefties.....get at it

I told you it was the left's next move but they had already been working that chess piece.

You don't hear it called left handed cigarettes much anymore.

Yeah, I skipped the mid-to-late 70's and early-to-mid 90's.

That was because people were angry that someone videotaped a white dude kneeling on a black dude's kneck for 8 minutes, while his white buddies stood by and watched. People were angry. The people who were looting have been and are being actively shamed by the protesters. The violence is over- with the exception of some occasional police brutality. If there were rules which prevented this from happening there never would have been looting in the first place, so let's just make that happen. Make sense?

The left was itching for a reason to disrupt society.

What rule ever prevents something (anything) from happening?

Fire cops and put them in jail when they murder people. It's amazing that this rule has not been standard practcice and is just now starting to be enforced. And it is ONLY being enforced because of the protests.

It wasn’t murder. Excessive force? Maybe. The dude was a POS breaking the law and was resisting arrest with supposed medical conditions and drug problems. The situation just exposed how many more there are.

You’re really justifying the arson, assaults, looting and murders as some sort of “they are just angry” Jesus

Yes they always are- and the right is always itching for reasons for things to not change or improve.. and militarize. That is the timeless nature of politics. Time to start finding common ground or we will all suffer.

Lol. Yea they were just mad a fellow criminal died so they figured it was justification to go on a looting, rioting, vandalism, assaulting spree.

Not justifying or condoning. But it's understandable. Listen to Joey Kent and other ex-Vols talk about this and they'll take the same position as me here.

WGAF? And no none of this is understandable.

Lol funny the state of Minnesota seems to think it's murder. And it's about damn time.

It’s never understandable to hurt others because of anger. It’s actually stupid and hypocritical of what you claim to want.

And while I like Kent as a FB player, also kind of hypocritical for him to complain about police when he attempted to cover for his roommate raping a girl

 

[lacrossepro70]

Yeah you clearly don't GAF about black people's opinions on the matter otherwise you wouldn't take the position you are in.

 

[C-south]

He won’t be convicted of murder. Charges and convictions aren’t the same. I’m guessing you’ve had a couple plea bargains.

You stated a consequence/outcome/result to not following a rule.

 

[C-south]

Everyone is entitled to their opinion no matter how big of a moron they are. It doesn’t mean I have to care what it is and it will never justify busting into Target to steal a 65” Vizio.

lol Clean as a whistle mate

 

[Orangeburst]

And that is how the system typically and should work. Where is the outrage at the local Dem leadership level in these instances when the system fails and why not protest against the Mayor and DA? Are they out of bounds because they are Dem?

 

[C-south]

Cool. Then I can assume with certainty that you aren’t black.
