    LOL!! What's he supposed to do? Give into the demands of a bunch of animals going around burning everything, looting and killing innocents?

    Absolutely incredible political views you have.

    The people doing those criminal acts deserve any punishment going.
    They are not representative of the hundreds of thousands of people taking part in peaceful protest with legitimate grievance.
    To just react to the criminal behavior and ignore the underlying problem will just mean that this sort of thing is destined to recur.

    Flipping off a cop that has cozied up inside of a broken system.

    Plenty of cops white and black have been hugging it out with protesters and kneeling so idk what this cop in particular did but I suspect it had some warrant.

    Did you see Bidens speech? Democrats are already drafting reform bills. Policing standards and a chokehold ban. Not rocket surgery

    Yeah, you're probably not black unless you agree with him..

    You see fewer per capita white convictions for marijuana offenses even though whites and blacks use marijuana at the same rate.

    You can thank Joe Biden and Clinton for that.

    Pigs innit.

    I wonder though if the US, particularly the US elites in cities like New York, don't realise were the police to say go on strike, the whole place would be enflamed. There is no real social capital in America's increasingly divided cities, no real middle classes left. Lose the police and its curtains.

    Police have gone on strike before.

    EDIT:

    That would be a great movie. ^

    Weaponised thought drifting into oppression by people too stupid to know what they are doing..It's a f*cking dangerous development..

    No doubt "grievance studies" and other such nonsense taught at institutions of education have a part to play in this.

    For anyone who hasn't seen this

    "There's a part of this that's very simple, this mob is wielding a credible threat. You must be willing to humiliate yourself by surrendering to the absurd portrayal that these people are delivering, can you get out of their way so they can go attack somebody else"

    Today on the ABC hollywood feed.

    They want police reforms. They want justice system reforms. They want awareness about bias in policing.

    Trump hasn’t announced any reviews or proposed legislation or action besides cracking down on protestors and telling them to go home.

    Do you think the rioters, looters who have murdered, assaulted and raped over the last few days give a shiit about any legislation or actions Trump would propose ?

    This has nothing to do with the death of George Floyd this is just rioting for rioting sake because they are getting away with it with the blessing of liberals and MSM. Disgusting.

    Because they are driven by viewership and ratings.

    Thanks for the question. Happy to answer.

    Woah mind-blowing stuff.

    EVERY news source has their own agenda.

    Every.single.one.

    From RTE to the BBC, CNN to FOX, your bananas leftist news sources to my right ones.

    You make up your mind by watching as much as you can and making your own mind up.

    If that’s the case then I respect their gender identity and meant no offense, however you did gender them as a male in your question.

    The nature of protests seem to have changed from racism to police brutality, officials had an opportunity early on in this to side with the protests and show empathy, instead they turned the police force on them, and are now looking to bring soldiers in.

    There is racism and police brutality in all of this, fix the racism and your still left with the police, fix the police and your still left with the racism.

    Holy hyperbole: rape now? Where? When?

    Clearly you just want to rage at the protests. Cool. Not engaging.

    You keep calling them "protests".

    They're riots.

    No they are protests.

    Some sporadic rioting happens mainly at night. A few acts of riot during the day. But by and large these protests are peaceful. Men women and children in attendance. Been watching live streams all day and seen tens of thousands of folks who haven’t rioted one bit.


  • Registered Users Posts: 82,772 ✭✭✭✭Overheal

    It’s the first I have heard of it.

    I’m not sure how you’d get away with rape with so many witnesses around.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭begbysback

    No, just the outraged looking for an extra bit of something to be outraged about.

    In a new morning consult poll they found that 71% of American voters want the National Guard deployed to end the rioting 58% said they wanted the military deployed.

    You tell me. You haven’t been very civil so I’m not inclined to go do your sleuthing.
