re: Anyone getting tired of certain people CONSTANTLY lying about police altercations?

You want accountability for police but you don't want any level of government (local, state, federal) to do it yet yo recognize the fact that no one else can do it.

All about problems, never solutions. That's why these people drive me insane. I want police reform and a lot of other adults do too but it's hard to have a real conversation when the children won't shut the frick up.

The things you listed are a good start and how a civilized society should act.

Well if you want those things then discuss them, talk about how they would be a positive for society. Calling people racist just shuts down that whole dialogue.

Presuming everyone is civilized

Made even more difficult when they repeatedly start riots, damage property, make no efforts to find solutions....

Here is a hint or two...Throwing cinder blocks through plate glass windows will NOT help the situations. Setting fire to vehicles will NOT help the situations. Dealing in drugs or firearms will NOT help the situations.

Where did I call anyone racist? I have maximum privilege.

Can't we just have a common sense middle ground for people like us who hate cops and black people?

Just because you are white doesn't mean you have max priviledge, you are still a woman, so you therefore cannot have MAX priviledge.

That's were I disagree. Criminal
justice reform even starts with the worst offenders/dirtbags. doesn't our constitution protect all people? They have basic constitutional right. It's not really about defending them it's more so about the constitution. Setting the bar too high renders the system dysfunctional. It won't work

Reform in a representative government requires you to convince people it's necessary or positive. These cases do neither, it's not about convincing people, it's about entrenching preexisting ideas.

So do you disagree with the evolving narrative that the current DOJ is racist and found the BR officers to not have infringed on Sterling's civil rights based solely on the fact that they are white and he was black?

Sessions has a dirty past when it comes to race, and has man SEVERAL dog whistle comments in his first 5 months. It'd be dumb to say the whole DOJ is racist, but I have a vote of "no confidence" for him when it comes to prosecuting rogue cops. He believes in the damn "fergurson effect" something Obama's own Comey professed to at the shock of the obama DOJ (cause it's just not true).

Its not the particular case, because there is no way to say those cops did it because of race. However it's the overlying dynamics of the case, and how seemingly, there seems to be a protection for police when they commit crimes, especially involving black suspects.

Seriously, I agree with the op. And to catch these liars, the police should wear cameras to prove they're being lied about.
