How did that work out for Glenn Hutto?
Or Brad Garafola, Matthew Gerald & Montrell Jackson?
Or Terry Melancon?



I knew Brad Garofalo since he was three years old. And Brad would have been the first person to conduct himself legally and honorably. As he did on the day he was murdered .

By the way we average 43 lightning strike deaths a year. Are lightning strikes a problem? Is the risk of lightning strikes too high?


lightning is not the issue.

neither are 330 million people.

far fewer interact with police each year.

get back to us when lightning is a choice.

did you ever debate irl?

lightning is so wrong to bring up.

Are you OK with teachers making "the mistake" of hitting a child in anger? Perhaps breaking a student's leg or arm when restraining them? Because I've seen teachers fired, lose their license, be criminally charged, and sued in those cases


Of course not. Lol. Holy Mother of Emotional Straw Men outbursts. Your argument is infantile and you are being RIDICULOUS.I am simply telling you that Men are Not Angels and there will always be every range of behavior between Saints and Sinners. And because we understand that, we have a system of conduct and laws that punishes those people. But we never have any expectation of human behavioral perfection, because it's not possible.

Read that twice .

you propose two dozen people killed who are unarmed and not resisting arrest. correct number to kill is zero.


Nope. We don’t demand that level of risk tolerance for anything, much less something the by its very nature involves violence.

It’s truly a miracle that only that many people die when we have so many people carrying guns and weapons. And I’m all for guns, there is just a clear trade off to all freedoms.

You know what's going to end up happening right? Cops won't respond to "nonviolent" crime. They'll probably even be less likely to respond to violent domestic crimes. It never ends well for them. Rape? Not our problem. Wife beater? We'll send an ambulance. Minorities will go from complaining about police brutality to police absenteeism.

is it a choice for the police to respond to violent crimes? Are you asserting that police officers want to be put in these situations?

You don’t have to go outside if you think the risk level is too high.

We can use another example, the average annual risk of dying in a plane crash is 0.00000009%

Almost exactly the same. Do you think the airline industry is safe?

I absolutely do. And agree with every word of your post.

The problem with the responses in this thread, is people can't think any longer, have no time to read the words that wee actually written and default with Narrative-driven outbursts. As you did there. You made disagreement where there was none.

Bingo. They've been conditioned into groupthink, acceptible speech.

It wasn't too long ago that they were demanding police leave their communities. Can't have it both ways.

Oh but they WILL have it both ways. Because people are being conditioned to respond emotionally with pre-existing ideological narrative, rather than with dispassionate analysis based on truth.

C'mon Peej. Breaking the law is fun. I'll bring some edibles and cheap Irish whisky over, we can play some classic rock and roll, talk about our HS conquests and then we can cap it off by vandalizing your neighborhood. Maybe steal some of those pink flamingos. You know, like when we were kids.
