I never said that. But there is something systematically wrong with policing in this country if this type of behavior doesn't even warrant a reprimand. Individually, there are good cops sure. But systematically the entire system is rotten to the core.

No one is making fun of blacks.

Cops go where the crime is. They investigate things that are out of the ordinary.
Look what happened in Baltimore when the cops stopped patrolling. The murder rate skyrocketed.
Now the citizens want the cops back.

I guess the SJW in you wants criminals out there to keep criminalizing law abiding folks without fear that cops will lay hands on them? Not me, I've had enough of that crap from this worthless arse generation of idiots that wants to have all their cake and eat it too.

Frick you. How dare you put responsibility on the black man. The black man is the most oppressed human in the history of the world. They have earned the right by being beaten repeatedly by whitey to act like a complete savages with out any consequences.

You'd be appalled if you saw the difference between poor black people in the country vs city. I'm talking about no power, sewer, running water, and squatting in houses built of scrap wood infested with rodents vs a living room with a 65" flat-screen, leather coaches, free phones and internet, free food, no bills, and driving a two year old Range Rover.
Funny thing about that is you never hear the legitimate poor black people complain

A thread that has turned into bashing blacks on the OT? No way

The bigger problem to me is that BLM totally ignores the situations that lead up to these police encounters and irresponsibly places the blame on the cops.
I agree, but I think the cops are to blame as well. I think the point is that everyone should be accountable for themselves first and foremost. For some reason the US has become a culture of pointers and blamers of others before themselves. If everyone looked at themselves first, then there might be more answers and less "he said/she said" for all these situations.

So since the cops don't kill the upstanding black citzens according to you that make's it okay. Fukk this place.

Thank you for offering your perspective on this matter. Those cops just want to do the job without getting harassed, injured or killed. Every citizen knows the expectations and if you push a cop who deals with scofflaws all day he may snap.
Some cases warrant action against the cops but many could be prevented if the individuals were fully compliant. We cannot expect the cops to serve us in our time of need only to be disrespectful to them when the tables are turned.

There are thousands of times they don't get stopped. My mom drives a black, E series Benz (2015). She nor my father has never been stopped in it. Also, did your father get shot and killed? I guess not because he probably didn't do anything to incite any force from the officer.
You completely missed his truthful point.

My dad is quite successful has a very nice luxury car (a reward to himself mind u) that he bought this past year. You know how many times he's been stopped since he bought it? 6. He used to drive an Silverado, know how many times he was stopped it over the 10 years he drove it
He must be driving differently than he did in the truck. With all the luxury cars out there do you really think they are picking on him?

W.E.B. Dubois vs Booker T. Washington
You can see whose philosophy won out and is more prevalent in these current times.

Good points. And also, why don't we hear of any Indians robbing a bank?

Why can't Urban African American Culture have respect for themselves, knowledge, education, self-sufficiency, other people and authority?
Why can't poor hill-country rural folks of English, Scots and Irish descent have respect for themselves, knowledge, education, self-sufficiency, other people and authority?
This applies to any demographic group or single person. Losers of all stripes have insufficient regard for themselves, knowledge, education, self-sufficiency, productivity and authority.
We like to tell each other "check your privilege". That's a great way to remind ourselves to have adequate regard for these things we list here.
