Is the Bryant case a turning point in the right direction?

Once the video came out, almost every normal person said "Well that's justified."

But the progs couldn't handle that. They HAD to spin it some kind of way, and have attempted to do so with CRAZY arguments.

Those crazy arguments have worked in the past and gone completely unchecked by the media.

But this time, they largely aren't. They are getting called out. Exposed.

Are people's eyes opening to their lunacy?

Doubt it, emotions will always rule over common sense to progressives.

Maybe for now, let's see about the details of the next black person/police shooting that happens. If the next one is caught on video and shown to be similar to this and they go back to tha same rhetoric people will start to see them for what they are. If the video evidence of the next one is not as favorable to the cop as this one is we will probably be right back to square one. People only seem to remember one shooting at a time.

Unfortunately we are at the point where the left can look at this video evidence and still spin.

"Teenagers get in knife fights all the time."

We are past the point of no return. Accelerate the oncoming war and lets get it over with ASAP.

I can only hope. This is the craziest fricking thing the Left has done yet. Even if it’s wrong, I can at least understand the mindset of somewhat defending the riots saying some bad cop started the whole fiasco. But this is simply fricking insane. Let a girl stab another girl to death and do basically nothing? I swear if we don’t take another 30 seats in the House after this insane bullshite, the Republicans will have proven themselves as a paper shield of epic proportions.

Nah, it will get swept under the rug and then a new event will happen in a month or two and blow everything back up again. It is how I suspect most summers to go from now on.

I’m sorry, but 95% of the nation has to find that sentence completely insane. Plus the other girl didn’t even have a knife, so defending a one way knife fight? I swear if OJ happened these days, these woke white idiots would defend OJ saying Nicole was in the wrong.

The cop was justified and did the right thing. Most people who have seen the videos agree.

No

Was the Chauvin conviction a turning point?
Was electing a black President a turning point?

When we remove the incentives related to power and money, that might be a turning point.

That wasn't an assault knife, so the shooting wasn't justified...the liberal left.

Why do you think we are being bombarded with a media narrative (along with one from a lot of elected officials, including in the highest office in our land) that is the complete opposite of this?

Normal people on the internet.

I have seen the vast, vast majority of people, even on wackjob loon leftist places like Reddit calling out all of the crazy rhetoric right now out.

Valerie Jarrett, Lebron James, etc are getting roasted.

Until I see journalists and people with influence calling out our President and administration, I couldn’t care less.

But you are "adultifying" Ma'Khia and not treating her as a child.

Yeah, I have a hard time believing even the most Leftist people I know would condemn the officer here. This is pure fricking insanity.

No. It’s not.

It’s simply a rest stop on the road to Stalinism.

There will be no victory until these people are purged from public life.
