If police brutality is so rampant and a 'disease' that's tearing the country apart...

Why haven't they been able to march and riot for a non-felon? I mean, if it's a daily occurrence happening across the US...why are we only ever rioting over people like Rodney King, Michael Brown, and George Floyd?

I mean if it's so wide spread there has to be thousands of cases each year where some regular non-felon black man is targeted and it escalates to violence, why have there been no mentions or marches for that occurrence?

Please find me a police brutality of a non-felon, I'd like to start a march for that guy.

Why does someone’s past have to matter?

Why do credit scores matter?

"He was going to pay you back this time, he wasn't going to bail on his debt like he has everytime before. You shoulda given him a chance! Racist motherfricker!"

Daniel Shaver, Dennis Tuttle, and Rhogena Nicholas, who were all shot by police?

I'm skeptical you'd march for anyone, honestly. There are tons of examples of police using excessive force. There were five or six deaths in 2014 or 2015 that related specifically to calls about mental health, which ended up in the deaths of the people who were having the episode. One example is Tanisha Anderson, who was having a psychotic episode, and ended up being slammed on the concrete, dying as a result. Is that the sort of brutality that would lead you to "march"?

My bad, those were off the top of my head. There are more you can find, depending on what database you use to narrow the search terms.

And compared to how many interactions where cops get killed??

10-20-30 cases of people in badges making the wrong life and death situations in what millions of life and death situations? There were going to be situations where they are wrong and things go bad. Some people are just bad people. A badge doesn't make you an angel. But burning down cities does nothing. It doesn't start conversations or whatever the hell they keep saying. It makes matters worse. But that's what some seem to want.
And what are we really going to do? You can't stop people from being bad? I don't get what these conversations need to be about. A bad person that had a badge killed someone. OK, put him in jail and move on.
We have thousands of interracial cop and citizen interactions daily. shite will happen. As long as they are held accountable when they are wrong what is the real issue.

Sometimes they do. Tamir Rice was 12. The girl from Louisville a few weeks ago was a nurse with no record. Botham Jean in Dallas. Philando Castile in MN who had a registered CCL. There are many more. Just answering your question.

Those are all white people a-hole. I don't care about them.


And Tanisha was kicking officers, a felony, so she won't do. I'm looking for Completely innocent

quote:

Her family called police twice on Nov. 13 to report the 37-year-old woman was disturbing the peace, police said. They eventually agreed to let police take her to St. Vincent Charity Medical Center for a mental health evaluation.

Police said Anderson began to kick at the officers as they escorted her to a police car, and went limp during the struggle. But Anderson's brother, Joell Anderson, told Northeast Ohio Media Group that Anderson got nervous after voluntarily getting into the back of the police car.

How about the Australian lady in Minneapolis... who called the cops to report a possible crime.

Sure only a toy gun, but people called police there. Not targeting and not innocent, felony still.

If you think police brutality is rampant and racism is systemic in this country nothing is going to change your mind.

If you think there are a few bad apple police and racism in the US is mostly a thing of the past nothing is going to change your mind.

Now which position is true?

Crush our legal system of too many lies and regulations

Except those the most upset over this situation will keep voting for more of it which requires more law enforcement and more lethal confrontations.

People are too stupid to understand the connection.
