He is actually correct in that all people deal with it but if we want to acknowledge everyone deals with police brutality its time to stop the BLM and blaming everything on white people BS. They don't want to do that.

At night and go on a few calls


I have friends and family who are/were police in major cities. I'm well aware of the justified paranoia they have. You still own your actions. If you don't have strong willpower and a ability to think critically and calmly in intense sitauations get tf out of the profession. Words spoken by cops themselves. Police culture in and of itself is a major issue. It's why no one stopped him from kneeling his neck for 6 minutes. Bad culture.

No they dont. This is a lie. You cant ooint to a few incidents in a country of 350+ million people and say this applies everywhere. Furthermore, I dont need to address it. I didnt elect the people hiring these cops.

And the current citizens of Germany didn't do anything wrong but they still pay reparations to Israel. It's called an atonement.


Apples and oranges.

The reason that Germany paid reparations to Israel at all was that Israel resettled about 500,000 Holocaust survivors (at a cost of $3,000 each or about 27,000 in today’s money), for a total of 1.5 billion dollars then (or about 13 billion dollars in today’s money. Israel also estimated that Germany had stolen about 6 billion dollars in property ( or 63 billion in today’s money) belonging to deceased Jews (of which the state of Israel should be the heir). So together, about 76 billion dollars in today’s money.

So Barocks 8 yrs in office doing nothing for people of color & minorities was the White man's fault. Your thinking must be from Hillary Clinton manifesto. Govt.control over freedom & the 2nd amendment.

I'm willing to listen to Mark.

What specific, achievable things would you like to change?

Arrest the officers who killed George Floyd. Ok

Body cameras on police. Ok

What else?

I hear plenty of people speak in platitudes about change but even the ones who want change don't know what they want changed.

Dear White People: We are the ones that need to change. This is not one man's story. This is almost every black man's story. Which is why the problem is ours. We need to find OUR way to change what we do. There is no quick fix. It's a moral imperative



No Mark, it’s everyone’s problem

If you’re outraged at a POC being killed by police, but not a white person...you are the problem

If you’re Silent when a White person is killed by police...you are the problem

If you’re silent on a White person and POC being killed by police...you are part of the problem

If you only support BLM after a POC is killed by police, but not during black on black killings...you are part of the problem.

If you “want something done/changed” but provide no steps/actions to be taken...you are part of the problem.

If you “want something done” and become silent during Micah Xavier Johnson doing something...you are part of the problem.

If you never hold Police officers accountable...you are part of the problem.

If you never hold yourself accountable...you are part of the problem

It’s not a race issue, it’s individuals not holding themselves accountable, not willing to look in the mirror, on many fronts. Yes, I fall into that as well.

Dear Mark,

I suspect the black community will want things fixed with money.

You have plenty.

Update us on your results.

Sincerely,

White People

No I can point to numerous incidents from people I personally know throughout my life and from my own life. A cop made me walk on a broken fricking leg with no crutches because h "smelled weed" in a car that I was in that got pulled over, and wanted to search the car. Of course I had to get out, and when I reach for my crutches he said I couldn't. I told him and his backup I couldn't walk and my leg is broken and I need these crutches. They said they don't care and that "I could use the crutches as a weapon" so after being frisked I had to stand on one fricking leg for over 10 minutes before they finnaly let me hobble in intense pain, by myself, while laughing at me, to the backup squad car, so I could finnaly sit tf down while they finished searching the car. They enjoyed making me suffer. After they finish searching the car,and find nothing, because there wasn't any fricking weed to begin with, the fricker who originally pulled us over then has the audacity to ask me"why do you hate cops"? because of my attitude during this ordeal. I told him because you didn't let me use my crutches when I clearly had a broken fricking leg and this whole search was based on a fabricated probable cause. He didn't have an answer for that. He just said that he's "trying to protect the community and keep kids off drugs" with a smirk on his face. An absolute frick of a human being. Just a small example of how explotative and dickheaded police officers can be. We are not people to them, just not new potential inmates for the quota. They call us "civilians" as if they're the fricking military. Police culture has gone psychotic.

Dude, you are wasting your time here trying to reason with racist white trash.




Large numbers of Vietnamese immigrated to the US after the fall of Saigon. Those people took their opportunity to the come to the US and they have KICKED BUTT. They took the current structure of our society and used it to flourish.

So this ain't fricking hard dude. Quit whining. Quit crying. Quit crying victim. Work hard and do things the right way and you will be rewarded.

This shat is getting old dude. It boils down to a group of people claiming "victimhood" then asking me for more $$$ to fix their problems. Just give us your $$$ and this will all be over. Frick that crap. It has already been tried on a large scale and it didn't work. Time to clean up your own house.

We are living in such backwards times.

I wish people would stop telling me that I need to change, and just briefly explain to me how any change I could possibly make would stop police encounters with black people. What are we even trying to prevent?

Wait are we talking about cops being dickheads or cops killing people? Some coos being dickheads is not a racial issue.

Also cops only have the justifications to do things like you describe because of the people they deal
with, 90% are dickheads and a significant number of that 90% are violent. Let your guard up as a cop for just a second and you could be dead. Do you think cops that at most are writing jaywalking citations would act like that? Nope they do because a certain percentage of the people they deal with WOULD attack them with the crutches.

Yeah, but are whites allowed to use discretion in the methods on which to change things? Or would that be oppressive?
