    On a totally unrelated note, or not, why isn't the hammer and sickle considered a hate symbol?

    Denver shooter was a private security guard nothing to do with Anitfa.

    Yes, it seems Matt Doloff was employed by Pinkerton Security and hired out to a news crew.
    Should they have hired him? Did they know his history?

    4Chan the site famous for trolling and far right Nazi propaganda? That site.

    If a black guy slapped someone, then started macing them and got shot dead you know the same lot would be saying self defense.

    Shows how much BLM is needed.

    He supported Occupy, big deal so did most people.
    He was there for his job to protect a news crew.
    They were attacked.

    This week a militia were arrested for plotting to kidnap a governors because the president said to "liberate Michigan". He also is saying he won't accept the election result. Much bigger problem. Antifa are hyped up into a much bigger issue than it is to deflect from Trumps failures.

    I doubt pro-gun lobby consider shooting an unarmed man as self defence.

    As you may know you can just step back from mace to avoid it, you cannot step back from a bullet.

    We’ve seen arguments time and again that if you’re attacked you have a right to defend yourself. That if a cop is threatened deadly force is on the table. So what’s different here?

    I find it fascinating it’s been characterized as an assassination and that hasn’t been challenged by anyone of the pro cop at all costs brigade. If this was an assassination what do the police do? I guess I should really start calling it the Assassination of Tamir Rice.

    Not solely aimed at you but the proliferation of identity politics is ridiculous

    I've been in conversations where people simply questioning the media narrative is taken as irrefutable proof they're for or against something FFS. Agree with something someone says and people think you agree with everything they say

    Me: I really agree with what X said about Y
    Response: what about what he said about Z?
    Me: not really sure how that's relevant to a discussion about X tbh

    On this thread I was told we needed to correct certain headline stats but to correct others (that didn't back up the "racist police force narratve") was manipulative

    Here's a mad idea, rather than picking a "side" (and this eternal back and forth about "the right" and "the left" is utter nonsense) how about evaluating the merits of every idea and situation separately and objectively

    Though I did laugh (but wasn't at all surprised) at you having the cheek
    to accuse others of being pro something at all costs

    I completely agree but look what identity I myself have been labeled with by dozens of people in this thread. Turnabout is fair play. If it can be magically assumed I openly support rioting and murder because I discuss police brutality, the reversal is true. Other than that I’d love for people to talk the substance without bringing ego into it, people keep getting carded and banned for making the discussion personal and muddy.

    Matthew Robert Dolloff remained in jail Sunday on suspicion of first-degree murder.

    Dozens of socialists and communists scheduled a food drive as a counter-protest to a planned rally by conservative groups.

    It's unclear if any food was actually handed out to any poor people.

    My gut feeling would be a number slightly south of zero.

    Your article makes no such claims?


  • Registered Users Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Maybe I don't speak American so good but "soup drive" is the same as food drive, no?
    Or is it secret language for shouting at police and shooting at the opposition?

    “We do not currently have an active license & have never had an active license for anybody with that name.

    If he was operating as a security guard, he was in violation of the law.”
    Plot thickens

    No they would not, if it is evident self defense then it is self defense, if it is murder then it is murder. This was cold blooded and yet another person murdered by the far left.

    From the flyer, which looks specious to begin with, it's a soup drive. Some people on thread seem to conflate that with soup kitchens. A soup/canned food drive can be as simple as eg. a teacher asking students to bring unused canned food to class to be donated.

    Interestingly in some parts of the US actually feeding the poor/homeless eg. via just handing out free meals, has been outlawed by ordinance.
