Police shootings in Murrkuh and BLM protests: The thread. - It was a good thread, it dindu nuffin

Since it seems like this shit has been happening at least several times a week now for the past month, and separate threads have pretty much dominated this board for the majority of it, I feel it's time for a centralized thread on this sort of thing (apologies if someone already did this. If so, feel free to merge this thread with that one).

Up next on the plate, Chiraq has the potential to be dealing with more riots and unrest as footage from the police shooting of Paul O'Neal was released earlier today. Obviously, BLM has been all over this like flies on a dead carcass since the policeman apparently violated police protocol during the arrest. The only problems were that Paul O'Neal was being investigated for allegedly stealing a car (he was an 18-year-old in a Jaguar. Unless his parents were loaded, he doesn't have the equity or cash to buy one of those), he immediately sped away from police, crashed the car, and then fled the scene on foot before police shot at him.

Do I believe that police needed to shoot at him? Probably not. Did they have probable cause to suspect that he was committing a crime? Unfortunately, yes. This, to me, is just another case of BLM siding with a thug committing a crime instead of the hundreds people in Chiraq who are adversely affected by gang violence in the city.

On the other side of the pond, BLM protests in the UK blocked roadways and shut down airports and tram systems in Heathrow, Birmingham and Nottingham in protest of the five-year anniversary of the death of Mark Duggan, a man who was lawfully killed by police for planning a violent retalitory crime, was carrying a weapon and was an alleged drug dealer. What a saint, amirite?

This is the kind of shit I cannot stand, regardless of motive or cause. How many lives are you potentially risking with this kind of shit. What about emergency personnel? Good luck getting these people to move, especially if you're a firefighter or paramedic.

So yes, this isn't going to be over any time soon. Current year, indeed.

I have a list of my own demands :

1) stop being lazy
2) contribute something other than welfare babies to society

It's not a long list, but until these demands are met I can pretty much guarantee nothing is going to change.

Do the exceptionals ruining Charlotte know the officer was black? That'd be interesting to find out.

It's interesting that afaik they aren't pulling this shit in Tulsa, then again I think it's a more conservative area with more gun owners and far less patience for shit like that.

Doesn't matter to them. Law Enforcement, to these people, is an institution predicated on the oppression and murder of non-whites regardless of the race or politics of the individual officers. Black cops are either gormless Uncle Toms who are just doing what massa says, or they're malevolent race traitors brainwashed to hate their own kind.

Ive also got a few demands:

3) Pull your goddamn pants up.
4) Stop demonizing people of your own race that are trying to better themselves and their communities.
5) Stop fucking shooting each other.

Black lives may actually matter then... Oh, who am I kidding, that would actually involve putting in effort.

The hive mind of blacks is incredibly vicious and real. I feel badly for the ones with higher IQs trying to escape the cycle of willful ignorance and violence. If one has any criticism of the black community or a solution the entails people taking responsibility for themselves the swarm turns on them for being a traitor, an uncle tom, they're quickly reminded that they'll "always be a nigger." There's no respect of individualism in their communities, speaking properly, not dressing like a lout, listening to music aside from rap all earns you a dog piling.

Just saw the police chief in an interview and according to him 70% of those arrested had out of state IDs, in addition eyewitnesses reported large amounts of protestors arriving by bus shortly after the shooting. I'm hardly a conspiracy theorist but it certainly seems someone has a vested interest in sowing as much chaos as possible, these clearly aren't spontaneous uprisings.

The Deep (Left) Pockets of Black Lives Matter
While claiming to be a grassroots organization formed in response to the prevalence of police violence, Black Lives Matter (BLM) is actually 100-percent pure Astroturf. With coffers bulging with millions of dollars from George Soros, the Ford Foundation, and other deep-pocketed leftist individuals and groups, BLM is little more than a front organization for these leftists and their agenda to reshape the very fabric of American society, culture, and law.

It's important to see the nitty-gritty of America under Obama's leadership and how bad things have gotten. This is not just people marching and smashed windows that reporters show you on TV. If you don't live in an affluent community, America is turning into an out and out war zone right in your back yard, and our leadership is blind to the problem or doesn't give a shit.

Race-riot mob beats innocent man in a parking garage during the Charlotte protests

SUV pushes through protesters claiming the Black Lives Matter banner in Michigan

Another SUV in Ferguson, moving much faster, hits a single protester at a high speed (presumably leaving him critically injured or even dead)

I just don't remember race relations ever being as bad as they are now. Don't look at me with a straight face and tell me Obama is a good president, when this is just one of many things he's been utterly derelict on.

Personally, I've never gotten the impression Obama is malevolent and all this shit is by design.

He's just spent the last eight years playing his fucking fiddle, unwittingly setting the country on fire because his political identity is being a stooge of the New Left.

We haven't had a competent Democrat in the White House since 1963.

Oh, I don't think it's by design either, but he's certainly underestimated the hostile environment his arrogant statements putting down the bread-and-butter blue-collar working class of America have created.

See: "White man's greed ruins a world in need", "Bitter Americans clinging to their guns and religion", "Terrible acts in the name of Christ", "The officer acted stupidly", I could go on and on and on.

Turns out, when you run as an executive who thinks he's better than everyone else, you get extremism, entitlement, and resentment. Who'd have thunk it?

And Hillary comes in offering more of the same, explicitly calling half the country deplorable racists.

If you look at the current state of the country and sincerely ask why Trump is popular, then your fingers are so far off the nation's pulse they may as well be up your own ass.

Whenever something big happens like a protest, or even all the way up to a revolution you will always get the people that have nothing to do with the area coming in from the outside trying to sow chaos, terror, and promote whatever agenda they have. The agenda could be as simple as making money, to forever changing the culture of the region.

While a different case, ISIS in Syria and Iraq are not native completely to the area, thousands of fighters are from the surrounding countries like Turkey, Saudi, Jordan, etc. They don't give a damn about the future of Syria, they just want to establish their caliphate, cause terror, and fuck around in the desert for Allah.

BLM goes around sowing chaos, racial division, and demands for "justice". Reading those demands show they don't give a damn about the man that was shot, they don't give a damn about changing the area for the better for all races, and they certainly don't care about Charlotte. Why do you think they want everyone to be released and the national guard to go away? Because the want to commit more crime, and fuck around due to opportunity.

Keith Scotts own mother told the rioters to stop rioting and fuck off, and the people can not even respect the wishes of the mother of the man they are trying to bring justice for.

Poor MLK, the man would probably break down in tears if he saw what has happened the past few years, or even decades.

I agree with a lot of what else you said in this post, but I don't think you thought this through.

Imagine you are a cop. It's your job today to go into the projects and round up crack heads. These crack heads have guns and knives and shit, which makes things a little tense now on top of that you have thousands of people across the country who want you dead, who think you are scum when you are just trying to protect them. And if you kill any of them, even if you are completely justified to do so, you will be a pariah with your name in every paper and on every tv. And what's more, now every crack head feels a little more antagonistic towards your presence, a little less wiling to cooperate, a little more likely to pull something. If they kill you, a not insignificant amount of people across the country will actually straight up cheer for it, because you're a scumbag cop. You don't think that would put you on edge?

When I made that comment, I knew it would be controversial. I thought it through very carefully. I said it in spite of the public perception of the situation.

Your description of the situation is a popular one. But based on my experiences, I believe it to be extremely warped when it comes to day-to-day life in these neighborhoods. I sincerely believe many, many people talking about these issues have no clue what they're talking about.

Police are not shaking in their boots every day. Virtually all of their work is tedious beat work. Yes, going into a shitty neighborhood is scary. But plenty of people, the people who live there, do it every day just fine. And they don't have the protection that a badge affords.

I know a lot of people believe that the situation is the exact opposite, especially when I claim that being a cop makes you safer. They think that natives have it easier, whereas being a cop makes you a likely target. I think that sort of view is not based on facts, but more hyped up media cliches. Worrying about being forced to squeal like a pig on a vacation in Appalachia is not a reasonable worry, and worrying about getting lynched in the projects because you're wearing a badge is not a reasonable worry.

I sympathize with people worrying. It's an understandable, human emotion. But if you can't separate reality from fantasy, then you probably shouldn't be a cop. Like, if some war movie scares you, don't sign up for the army. And if the Wire scares you, don't become a cop.

As far as media exposure goes: I'm also not really that convinced that it's a reasonable worry either. For every Mark Fuhrman there is, there are a bajillion Officer Ruby's (dude who shot Korryn Gaines) out there who will be forgotten in a few months.

Two things:

1) Every single person saying "A riot is the language of the unheard" does so with 100% certainty that they will never be anywhere near a riot.

2) To everyone who suddenly loves cops, have you ever considered that:

Is designed to make cops look better? Remember that smug talking point that right wing people were throwing around on twitter awhile back about how white people have a considerable chance of being shot by cops too? Its a good thing weve got RACEWAR SIMULATOR 2016 to make sure nobody thinks too hard about that.
