To Protect and to Serve II

[Rickyvol77]

It's quite important to the national discussion over policing. It's obviously uncomfortable for you but it's still important

So what did the police officer do wrong here? Take a picture with a group of people who asked her to?

 

[GordonC]

What do I assume? It's a still pic with the very obvious signs. If they don't want it to be misinterpreted then don't pose for it

I think you assume that humans are rational creatures who think about the consequences of their actions.
I think that is largely false.

Not pay attention to her surroundings. But when standards are lowered this is what happens

You mean like when people start paying attention to 4chan? Lowering standards like that?

I think I do. I don't think my young children can yet. Eventually people need to grow up and realize there are consequences for being stupid

Have absolutely zero awareness to the current situation and is probably sympathizing with a bunch of racists.

Standards are lowered? So if a group of protesters asked to her to take a pic and one in the back held up a sign saying "f*** Trump" is that her fault as well?

She did nothing wrong here, and to suggest she did is the same as suggesting these guys did as well, it's assuming way too much without any evidence supporting it

OK. Well, I said largely false.

 

[Rickyvol77]

So if a police officer took a picture with protestors and one of them has a Free Palestine shirt on, i can assume she's "probably sympathizing with a bunch of anti-semite racists"?

Yes they got trolled but how much does the origin matter once it's adopted? There are ways to explain it away as the circle game by immature guys (like the Jasper photo earlier) or as an ok sign (I'm not going to call every scuba driver at racist) or even as a Vols symbol if thrown by a recruit. This just doesn't fit any of those

Adopted? So because 4-5 ACTUAL white supremacists have used it, it's "adopted"?

Al-Qaeda and Hezbollah took over wearing turbins from peaceful Muslims, so they adopted it as a hate symbol, thus all turbins are symbols of hate.

You really don't see an issue with that shallow line of thinking?

 

[GordonC]

P.S. It's very shallow.

 

[Rickyvol77]

Yes

So you believe that there are several Democratic politicians and activists and protestors who are anti-Semite racists? Well at least you would be consistent, so i applaud you for that

I said YOU can assume something. Some of us actually dig deeper to try and find out if our assumptions are correct. Can't believe I'm actually teaching this to a cop

Quit flip-flopping so much, so what did your deep investigation on these OK guys in the picture you posted find out?

Do you really need me to tell you after arguing with me about it for the past hour?

So you assumed what they did, or did you deeply investigate who they actually were and find evidence of racism?

I investigated

 

[Rickyvol77]

I investigated

LMAO T.I. compares "white boys hunting with rifles" with "black kids fighting on someone's property aiming a gun at each other and threatening to shoot them"

One of the dudes in the photo bragged about them being 3 percenters on FB



Also seems like the police chief isn't a fan of it either.

3 percenters aren't racist in their beliefs and the guy you posted from twitter is some antifa idiot who retweeted how to "riot properly"
