that Cop is in jail and will pay for his crime, but let's have a protest anyways.
This clueless remark is why I have avoided this thread, lol. Do you understand how hard it is to get a conviction against a cop?
that Cop is in jail and will pay for his crime, but let's have a protest anyways.
Please explain a crime is a crime in my book
So in your book, if the roles were reversed, if there was video of George Floyd with his knee in that cop's neck killing him, would it have taken 5 days for George Floyd to be arrested?
No and it shouldn't have taken 5 daysSo in your book, if the roles were reversed, if there was video of George Floyd with his knee in that cop's neck killing him, would it have taken 5 days for George Floyd to be arrested?
He would've been shot on sight by another cop if that was the case.
As opposed to what really happened when not ONE other cop even said "hey, man...maybe you should take your knee off his neck"...they are all complicit. Period.
No and it shouldn't have taken 5 days
George Floyd was murdered. Eric Gardener was murdered with a choke hold while selling untaxed single cigarettes in NY. No charges.
And let us not forget what happened to Mr. Brown in Ferguson: Officer Wilson refused to carry mace, because he didn't like the smell; he refused to carry a taser, because it was too bulky. So, to stop Mr. Brown from pinning his cruiser door shut, Wilson pulled his handgun and shot through the door. When Mr. Brown then started walking away - unarmed. Officer Wilson ordered him to stop.... Brown stopped... raised his hands and shouted, "If you want to shoot me... shoot me." The closer Brown got to Wilson (having no mace or taser) he started to fire. Finally, the last shot was a downward killing shot as Brown had fallen to his knees. He was murdered. No charges.
Daniel Shaver (not a minority) was shot begging for life. He was murdered but the officer was found innocent by a jury. So there you go. Law enforcement is usually not charged and when they are, juries set them free. Politicians who can change the laws never do and we the people, given a chance to met out justice, hardly ever do.... whether in a jury or in a voting booth.
So, the politicians disarm citizens in the cities... and when the riots happen, and ANTIFA takes over, the police are nowhere to be found until enough folks are burned out, beaten or murdered. In the end we get the government we deserve. We never really demand change.
We are going to let the politicians order us to stay in our houses; let the police fine us for standing too close together; let the anarchists murder us and burn us out. We allow it because we allow the politicians to tell us it's the other political party doing it.
Truth.... we allow it ourselves and have only ourselves to blame.
In case you are unfamiliar...Daniel Shaver vid:
Let's not over complicate the situation. If the justice system worked correctly there is no reason for ANTIFA or the anarchists to even be part of the conversation. It seems like the political/business establishment is finally realizing that every time a bad cop kills somebody it's going to result in millions of dollars in property damage and financial settlements.
So, to explain to you sir, you understand that a "crime is not a crime". The justice system moves differently depending on who is being accused. That's why people are out in the street protesting.
So, the coordinated pallets of bricks, bottles with accelerants, staged stolen cars and the money changing hands on the streets and all the coordinated chatter between areas to be hit were all put together in a couple days because the officer wasn't charged... and it all stopped because he was charged... because well, the riots were only about Floyd. Ugh... maybe not. On the other hand, one might... just might get the idea that ANTIFA had riots planned and was merely looking for a convenient excuse.

Sounds like some you flu klux klan members on here may have been behind it... Then tried to blame it on the far left...
I'm not sure about your conspiracy theory about ANTIFA, but I'm also not going to dispute it. But why give ANTIFA the opportunity? Don't overlook the fact that this entire situation was caused because the justice system broke down in this situation and has broken down consistently for a long time when it comes to people of color.
Well, we all know about Twitter and its antics, don't we. Here is what you will not find out anywhere else.

James Mattis Denounces President Trump, Describes Him as a Threat to the Constitution
In an extraordinary condemnation, the former defense secretary backs protesters and says the president is trying to turn Americans against one another.

I see "breibart". Not even going to waste my time clicking on that kkk far right nut job trash of a "news" agency link... You being brainwashed by these types of sites further explains your nonsense...
Mattis fell out with the administration because he favored Iran. He didn't want to pull out of the nuclear deal. Then, he didn't like Trump's Syrian policy of reduced troops on the ground with Trump's idea of hammering Isis with air strikes. As it turned out Trump's plan was perfect.
We pushed Isis in to a half square mile and they surrendered. Syria, Turkey and the Kurds have so far worked out their differences. I believe Isis once controlled an area the size of Texas and is now gone as a nation state.
Result, Trump gets no real credit, as usual, and Mattis is a bitter man for having been so wrong on so many things. He was great in the Marines... should have stuck to it and retired. Now I gather he is vying for a talking head position at CNN.
Incidentally, even Obama fired Mattis without the courtesy of a phone call. Apparently, Mattis had a unique ability to irritate people.

"Three Nevada men with ties to a loose movement of right-wing extremists advocating the overthrow of the U.S. government have been arrested on terrorism-related charges in what authorities say was a conspiracy to spark violence during recent protests in Las Vegas.
Federal prosecutors say the three WHITE men with U.S. military experience are accused of conspiring to carry out a plan that began in April in conjunction with protests to reopen businesses closed because of the coronavirus.
The anti-government “boogaloo” movement is a loose network of gun enthusiasts who often express support for overthrowing the U.S. government. Its name, a reference to a 1984 movie sequel called “Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo,” is a code word for a second civil war.
The movement is rooted in online meme culture, but the coronavirus pandemic has become a catalyst for real-world activity. Many “boogaloo” followers have shown up at COVID-19 lockdown protests armed with rifles and wearing tactical vests over Hawaiian shirts and leis, a nod to the “big luau” derivation of the movement’s name."
