You keep imaging this situation as what YOU would do. You are probably a high functioning individual with a decent job. Do you understand that a large portion of the country has a very low IQ? There was a study the Army did back in the 50s. The found 20% of the population would be totally useless for any sort of job in the case of total war. They were literally too low IQ to even put air in tires of vehicles reliably. They are perfectly reasonable law abiding citizens that have learning disabilities and social awkwardness. It’s not as simple as saying “just listen to the cops” when the cops are ripping people out of cars and throwing them on the ground calling them a bitch. This wasn’t a criminal intentionally trying to fight the cops because he knew he just committed a crime. He was truly shocked and confused.


I’m not sure what’s more insulting, the assault on the victim or you assuming he was “special”

Sometimes people just act like a jackass and don’t comply. They aren’t too stupid to understand, just too arrogant

Progressives want a federal police force, that’s why these events keep making the news. Straight out of the communist playbook

If the percentage is miniscule it would seem to be difficult for 5 of them to not only end up in the same department, but also working the same shift and all ending up at the same traffic stop in a city of over 600k.

You’re free to go reply to that post all you want. But seeing as you are already bending toward the ad hominem path, I’m guessing I can predict how it will go….


You posted a picture of a fictional character and told the board that if they didn’t understand how this incident was motivated by racial factors that they didn’t want to “get it”, and when I told you this type of comment didn’t foster a real dialogue, came across as as pretentious, and followed a very noticeable trend of this type of content coming from your account, you called me a “dipshit” and insulted my intelligence, while still failing to put forward a path towards a real dialogue.

I am unsure if you of all people should ever criticize anyone for jumping to ad hominem.

bullshite... so you think there just happened to be 5 thugs on this one case and this was a one off where no other officers on the department have never noticed them being pieces of shite?


Yeah im skeptical. If they would police their own better then they would have more public trust.


Public trust hasn't waned making it a more dangerous environment because of anything other than Police officers coving for one another and allowing this shite to get swept under the rug.

Then have several more show up afterwards that couldn’t care less about the victim dying out, and instead just hang around shooting the shite and cutting up.

It’s often a culture that conditions and reinforces dehumanization and disregard of the very people they are supposed to “protect and serve.” And this is a prime example of that on display.

What a retarded view.

Yeah..the riots of 2020 had nothing to do with it at all. Not a thing...

No, I posted a picture and two links that demonstrated pretty obviously that the notion that systemic racism, or racism in general, is somehow removed from the equation cause the officers were black is specious reasoning.

You all went off on the ad hominems from there….as predicted

Also as predicted, and against my better judgement, when I made an earnest post, the trolls ghosted out.

You too could have that conversation you said you want in the thread more befitting for its discussion, you are choosing virtue signaling to the board base instead. So again, prediction made, prediction proven

I’m just here to tell you, your original post and original comments were in no way an attempt to start an earnest discussion in good faith and you damn well know it.

Yeah, between Trumpism and DeSantis

Q-Anon and culture warriors

I guess it’s one of those cases where if you are so far right, a center-right Republican comes off like a leftist.

This board becomes more Liberal by the day, hell this shite is on the OT not the PT. His Ilk wished me dead and said my BIL deserved to be murdered in this thread before someone whacked the post. But conservatives are the problem.

Itt, toward that poster? where did I say anywhere otherwise?

I posted a retort and was immediately met with the bad faith, ad hominem troll brigade, including you getting in some good boy point virtue signals.

The attempt at an actual discussion came in the thread that actually attempted to have one

systemic racism


lol there it is.

In previous posts you imply that you feel it is the job of the government to somehow "fix" the culturally ingrained actions of low class people. And by calling it racism you assume this only applies to blacks.

It doesn't.

Saying that, the government actions to "solve" the problems inherent in certain communities in this country have done nothing but exacerbate them.

More government fixes nothing. The people in those communities need to fix the culture themselves. Instead, they celebrate it so it continues.

Yep, you can't argue with anti scientific neandertals.

Using data, their ideals have no subjective basis.

if you are going to post slop and acknowledge it as slop, nobody is going to have patience to tolerate your lectures on ad hominem attacks.
