Breaking News - Mass Murder of Cops in Lousiana

[Blue_Max]

You should tell everyone that on fb live streams as they watch yet another black man bleed out.

...because 2-3x as many white ones are bleeding out without live feeds? But hey, the white devil is to blame so they deserved it, right?

Why is it that whenever there is a police shooting, the conservative side always sides with the police?

Based on the initial reports in the Castile shooting, sentiment was almost all against the police. Remarkably so on gun forums.

I know the typical recipe is to attempt to frame any race related event with everyone to the right of the democrats firmly in the racist box but all that has done is inculcate the racists and right leaning anti-racists with a sense that the word is meaningless.

It's complete craziness.
Most of the time, police shootings are a (sadly) necessary (with the US's open door on gun ownership) process, which the police need to do, to avoid getting shot and killed themselves and/or keep safe the general public.

Rarely, this process does go wrong, and partially/fully the police are at fault or to blame. But it is like this in other jobs.

E.g. A surgeon may accidentally make a mistake, and the patient dies.
If a patient dies partly/fully due to a doctors mistake, you DON'T go to a hospital and shoot dead, 4 doctors.

I'm disappointed with groups like the BLM one.
It should/must be ALL LIVES MATTER or similar.

They seem to be increasingly creating a kind of terrorist group, within society. Which seems to be willing to gun down innocent police.

Your post is everywhere. When a cop makes a "mistake" and takes someone's life, it is a big deal. Cop's need better training and more accountability and bad shootings will be less frequent. It amazes me how we as a society give so much power to high school graduates because they wear a shield.

And lastly, where did BLM say all lives don't matter? Let me ask you, do you get equally outraged with Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Does the fact that they celebrate Breast Cancer somehow mean that all Cancer doesn't matter, or all illness doesn't matter?

I think those who take an issue with the Black Lives Matter slogan have racial animus to begin with.

Yes the white devil is to blame and they deserve it.

Now do you feel oppressed enough?

If there was a factor (that was deadly all by itself) that contributed to breast cancer mortality, I would fully expect Susan G. Komen for the Cure to mention it.

For example, here's Susan G. Komen for the cure's page on the cancer risks of smoking.

Some people would label your comment as hate speech.

If people are protesting in the wrong place and/or time, or in other problematic ways, I can understand. Why it is banned.

But to choose a particular race for their slogan (e.g. BLM), is actually being racist in its own right, in my opinion.

 

[justoh]

So what? The same reason there is a lot of black on black violence is the same reason these police are on edge all the time working in these shitty neighborhoods policing gangbangers and other criminals who are armed with illegally owned weapons.

You mean because they're usually born into a life of hopelessness and despair? If I grew up impoverished and perceived selling drugs, for example, after undergoing almost no education at all due to the way public education in the US is funded, as my only option, and was faced with inhumane prison conditions, maybe I would do everything I could to prevent being arrested as well.

That reason? Poverty and the war on drugs? The three-strikes laws with the absurd result that people get 25 years after stealing some golf clubs? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewing_v._California

Maybe I just think this way because, like them, I listen to too much hippity hop.

Teardrops and closed caskets, the three strikes law is drastic
And certain death for us ghetto bastards
What can we do when we're arrested, but open fire
Life in the pen ain't for me, cause I'd rather die

That old argument again? It is very clear that many of the vocal activists of BLM get pissed off when other people get attention instead of the focus always on them. Pissed of when white people send their thoughts and prayers to the families of the gay people killed in Orlando. Pissed of when white people send their thoughts and prayers to those in France. Pissed off when white people want to just drive the interstate home after a day's work and not have it shut down by protesters out in the streets. Pissed off when white people say "All Lives Matter".

Just because you personally believe your movement means one thing, doesn't mean everyone who is a part of it believes the same thing you do.

 

[ItsMeeYourDaddy]

I don't get it. Canada is just to the North and when I lived there, there was no racism, gun violence, protesting, killing of blacks and cops. Cross a bridge/border crossing into the US and its like a completely new continent, new land, something I can directly compare to Egypt from a few years ago.

It gets silly if we have to name every possible group in society who needs protecting.

Serious question ?
Would there be any complaints or claims of racism, if when a new president is elected he starts up a group called
"White Lives Matter" ?

You can't fight racism with more racism. Saying "Whatever Lives Matter" is racist because your are specifically looking after that one race. It's like trying to create peace by bombing other countries. It's just madness.

But then again, this world is nothing but madness so it's just normal.

But black lives matter isnt saying that only black lives matter. You know this. They are discussing a problem in the system.

I just saw this headline on CNN:

White lives matter? The point BLM is trying to make is that White Lives already do matter and Black lives don't seem to matter. So someone starting that campaign would be redundant, no? Or do you believe that society puts less value on white lives?

Again, I think those who want to make this an issue have racial animus to begin with and should probably do some reflection as to why they care.

Exactly what rock are you living under?

https://youtu.be/dj4ARsxrZh8

I can find dozens of these chants on you tube, post a thousand tweets of BLM leaders and supporters calling to kill the police.

 

[Darwin333]

Maybe restrictions on reporting about such incidents, need to be in place, so that they can say "XYZ was shot by the police and unfortunately died in hospital, in XYZ. Police are investigating".
"Sorry but we can't report any more about this incident, until after the official investigation is finish and any court cases are finished".

On the other hand, we need freedom of the press.
But we can't have it whereby a policeman doing his job, shoots someone dead. Rightly or wrongly.
Then next week, someone shoots dead 4 policemen, apparently because of that shooting a few days ago.

You can't just go restricting what the press can say like that regardless of how much we dislike what they are saying.

First identify BLM leaders & then provide the cop killer tweets made by them.

You said you could, so have at it.

Let me help you because you and others seem to be stuck on stupid.
Anytime you hear about BLM, just remember, their slogan is really, black lives matter too.

You know they can't take any sort of hard look at themselves & what they believe. Truthiness is their only principle when it comes to that.

I can believe that there are elements of racial bias (including myself, hopefully to a small extent, since I'm human and not a machine/robot), which can bias the understanding of BLM's slogan.

The message/name of the organization, should convey Peace and lack of Racialism. It should be reasonably neutral and acceptable to everyone, or nearly everyone.

Not potentially contain racism within the slogan itself.

In the 1960's (If I remember my history), there was significant racial tensions in America, it was more like South Africa in its bad days. Certain incidents (including a lady NOT standing up on a bus or something), caused huge/widespread racial changes in America. So some good in the end, might come out of this (BLM that is, NOT murdering police), let's see.

before I assume, what you do think you're seeing in this picture and then I will tell you what I see. Should be interesting comparing the two opinions on this image.

This is tragedy.

2nd amendment gives gun rights to citizens, now citizens use that to ambush cops.

Gun should stay home or stay in the forest.
