@MiketheSnow they don't need FLoyd, the can move seamlessly to the next one
Unarmed guy shot in the back 7 times, while his kids watch on.
America is fucked.

@Frank did you catch the guy that got swatted for playing video games loudly? That was ugly as f
The cops knocked on his door then stood out of sight and didn't identify themselves. The guy opened the door and had a gun down by his side as he looked who was there. Sees a cop and declares he has a gun, then starts following instructions to lay down etc. Then the cop standing off to the side started shooting and that's that.
Everyone one of these seems to go back to training and police culture - with a number having that added dimension of race.
-
Out of interest what should the cops have done here?
Are we at the point where cops should just let violent criminals murder them to prove they are anti-racist?
@Paekakboyz yeah that one was tragic alright, not that anyone gives a damn as his skin colour doesn't fit the narrative. Not worth burning neighbourhoods down for that.
-
@Rembrandt Do you think BLM should morph into a wider reform/retrain police movement rather than solely focusing on the treatment of Black folks by police? so they become advocates for all races?

New shooting in Wisconsin. Looks bad. Guy did not die and is in a stalbe condition.
Riots are kicking off hard-core in that area.
Guy might have been going to grab something from his car.
He had an existing warrant for his arrest.That's just asking to die.

In an ideal world yes. However their leaders have no interest in that at all. At this point they are basically a domestic terrorist organisation. Leaders are openly trained Marxists, they are often openly racist against white people & Jews and are dedicated to the fall of capitalism and the destruction of family. (This is all publicly available from their official spokes people, official twitter and websites).
Corporations, politicians, mass media, silicon valley and useful idiots backing them show that the horrors of the early 20th century could very easily repeat.
Just to add to this. A few years ago when I was more into politics I got in contact with Hawk Newsome who is a BLM leader from New York, we had a couple chats online on messenger. At that point he was dedicated to making BLM a force for good and was made famous for a video where BLM joined with Trump rally (video is easily found on youtube). Over the last few years he's becoming increasingly extreme and now openly calls for violent extremism against non-blacks. BLM as a potential force for good is well and truly dead.

blm, as an organisation doesn't care for black lives. Not even a bit.
We do, so our empathy is taken advantage of with manipulative rhetoric and completely ignoring nuanced debate and solution gathering.
The people in blm, as an organisation, only want the power that comes with their blackmailing tactics ( riots) so they can shape a world for themselves.
It's bloody clever and all we can do ( seemingly) is watch all the predictable suffering and failings and then, in a decade or two, vow never to let this happen again.
Just like we did with communism the first time around. -

Not a massive fan of those Crayon coloured cars. They are everywhere here, I suspect they are going to date very badly.
On a serious note, the guy had guns on him and continued to walk around to his car, open the door and reach in. Even a completed retarded person should know that means the cops are assuming he's going to get a weapon. You do have to wonder if the bloke did it anyway thinking "they won't shoot me, I'm black, they are white ...."

New shooting in Wisconsin. Looks bad. Guy did not die and is in a stable condition.

Guy might have been going to grab something from his car.
He had an existing warrant for his arrest.Can someone please explain how the couple in St Louis who were on private property brandishing arms have been charged but this guy shouting down the police on public / municipal property gets a bye?

If you don't make a particular gesture with your hand the mob will come for you.
Its all very familiar, what happens if a political party that supports this gets into power?
That's fucking frightening really.

Being an advocate of all races also means being an advocate of white people and being an advocate of white people also reinforces white privilege.
Therefore, being an advocate of all races is actually racist.
Well, that seems to be the current thinking

If they had to let rip, why not put just a shell into his butt? Won't be going anywhere after that?!

That sounds ideal eh, but strikes me as utterly unrealistic.
