    Charles R. Holliday-Smith, 30, has been arrested and charged w/first-degree assault & felony by police for hit & run on Saturday, Vancouver, Wash. Shane Moon was at a memorial event for Aaron “Jay” Danielson when Holliday-Smith, a known BLM activist, entered the bar and heckled the group which led to a back and forth outside the bar. Holliday-Smith then got in his truck and rammed Moon, hitting him with his truck. Again the pattern of rage triggered by uncontrollable emotion rears its head. Dangerous and irrational type of people.

    If it was Portland, he'd be out throwing fiery but mostly peaceful incendiary devices.

    How has it become acceptable to voice such hate speech?

    Because there seems to be no end to the amount of people who will make excuses for this horrible rhetoric or pander to these "adults" either to make themselves be seen more favourably or because they believe white people deserve it. I've seen some examples myself online.

    I do think though that these people are safely ignored by the majority of ordinary people.

    Can you imagine the outcry if this was a white person saying these things about black people? How has it become acceptable to voice such hate speech?

    Because perceived victims (based on racial or gender lines) have been elevated beyond personal responsibility for their own behavior. You see the same with feminists who often make horrible statements about the male gender. We live in a world of double standards, where public utterances of hypocrisy are tolerated (and encouraged online).

    The man that viscously assaulted two nyc cops who gave him a ticket for blocking fire hydrant, has been apprehended.

    I think the bigger problem is incidents where they only discover that police capabilities are needed by the fact that the social worker has just been perforated. By which point it becomes a bit late. Again, witness that video from last week. How would a social worker have handled it any differently to a cop? A different type of knock? (Subject to the detail that the social worker would be unarmed).

    I bet a social worker wouldn't have shot a 6-year old autistic boy

    Tragic. Hope the young guy pulls through. Though I dont think a social worker would have been much use tbh.

    Looks like Rochester will have a lot of extra money for social worker now as then entire command staff has left their roles, the police chief and all the deputy chiefs retired or moved back to a non command role. Apparently others did too but they aren't named or a count is given anywhere.

    The mayor got the news during a zoom meeting, announced the fact to those on it, and then adjourned the meeting.

    So much for them standing for "Integrity" as the Chief-in-retreat put it. How integral are you being by leaving Rochester PD without a command structure, and by surprise?

    Looks like the protestors got what they wanted?

    This is Rochester Police Chief La'Ron Singletary

    im-229697?width=620&size=1.5
    Rochester Police Chief La'Ron Singletary said in a statement that he was honored to serve the city in upstate New York for 20 years and commended his staff. However, he said the protests and criticism of his handling of the investigation into the March 23 incident "are an attempt to destroy my character and integrity.

    "As a man of integrity, I will not sit idly by while outside entities attempt to destroy my character," he said in a statement. "The members of the Rochester Police Department and the Greater Rochester Community know my reputation and know what I stand for."

    I see from that report it isn't as immediate as preliminary reporting made it sound:

    "His retirement will be effective Sept. 29, according to Rochester City Council President Loretta Scott. Scott told ABC News as of now there is no blueprint for how the city moves forward following the retirements of the command staff."

    Earlier reports I saw had focused on the abrupt manner the resignation was announced and the close of a zoom meeting, which made it seem like it was effective immediately and without notice. So, no there doesn't seem to be any degradation in force function.

    A hierarchical structure like a police force will always have some form of chain of succession. A sudden retirement by the senior staff would be reacted to the same way as if they were all killed in a helicopter accident going to some meeting.

    I'm amused by the screenshot of the zoom meeting in that ABC link. They place their preferred gender pronouns after their names.
    In the rare event that preferred gender is not apparent, wouldn't you... well.. know that if you're all members of the city council and actually care about your co-councillors?

    What kinda ****ed up mindset do these people have, in the last while turns out she was pretending to be black all along while in this 2019 clip she essentially blamed the 15year old lad murdered inside a bodega in nyc on himself because he was on some youth program with the nypd and people applause that ****.

    Rochester is a very well to do city, it is massively white as well.

    The 2 key pillars for BLM.

    Even in Detroit BLM protestors are near all white and middle to upper class.

    Dajore Wilson, an 8-year-old girl shot dead in Chicago on Monday. No hashtag. No "peaceful protests". No outrage. Another child. A black life. BLM will never take ownership of their problems in their own communities or race. Over the Labor Day weekend, there has been 51 shot with 10 of them being fatal.

    Protests in Chicago being used as a cover for widespread organised crime.

    And BLM still want the police defunded even though that's not what Chicago residents want..

    Mayor Lightfoot apparently has said no...

    ?url=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.politico.com%2Fff%2F18%2F79fd16614474a543d4be609b901e%2F200623-lightfoot-ap-773.jpg
    “Defund the police” is a “nice hashtag,” (Mayor) Lightfoot said, but it ignores how reform works, will hurt efforts to diversify the force, and goes against what Chicago residents are telling her they want. That resistance has been echoed by Democratic mayors in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C., where Mayor Muriel Bowser recently said “We fund the police at the level that we need it funded."

    The Mayor, while possibly right, has no credibility. Another stinking hypocrite, who supports "protests", once they aren't near her. She literally has had people blocked from protesting on her own street. These Democrat politicians truly think they have a right to live by different standards to the people.

    “The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than anyone else. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offense, isn't it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exaggerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill--he knows that himself, yet he will be the first to take offense, and will revel in his resentment till he feels great pleasure in it.”- ― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

    There's a former nba player called dwayne wade and his cousin got shot dead a few years ago. She was an innocent mother of 4 kids and she got shot in some gang crossfire . All dwayne did was post a few tweets saying this has to stop. Now recently with all the BLM stuff going on , he's been non stop making ads , wearing t-shirts ,posting tweets and giving interviews about police brutality and yet when his cousin got killed by another black person there was barely a peep out of him . And that in my opinion is what's wrong in the black community. They'll march and protest like mad when the cops kill a handful of unarmed blacks men but when it comes to black on black crime they'll stick their heads in the sand

    8 people stabbed(1 dead) in Birmingham over the weekend all white by a blackman, such a multicultural city but all white stabbed, the msm don't say anything about colour on their news reports but if it was the other way around( which hardly ever happens) they would be singing it from the roof tops, blm would be marching the streets ...... but guess what nothing not even tumble weed, I guess wlm means feck all in the new world order we live in, just pay your taxes give refuge in your country and shut your hole

    Link for posterity.

    They choose not to mention colour of victims. I'm not saying it's required but that works both ways.
    As you say, if it were the other way around, they'd be all over it.

    Do the media realise they are driving division and making things worse by flaming white people? Generally the news consumer is aware of it. Even those who choose to discount it, they're still aware of it even if they don't state it.

    I think they've collectively become aware of it and they're deciding to plough on. In for a penny in for a pound, no turning back now.
