U.S. Riots of May 2020 over George Floyd and others - ITT: a bunch of faggots butthurt about worthless internet stickers

[KingCoelacanth]

I never said it was a 50/50 split. Even if opinions lean one way, the thread is split between debate/slapfights and the occasional update on the situation. In the thread that was brought up as a comparison, no debate whatsoever.

you can have debates and slap fights even if there is 499-1 split. There's a clear and obvious take on this situation that the vast majority of people in this thread share, its not a split issue by any means.

Between Philando Castile, Justine Damond, and now this, I'm beginning to think Minneapolis cops don't know what the fuck they're doing.

a 499/1 split is still a split, dude. there was nobody in that thread starting any sort of debate, so there was no debate. Debate tends to encourage discussion. Which is why this thread got more posts. you're being really obstinate for someone who's not really disproving my point.

nobody in the twin cities really knows what the fuck they're doing.

Cops are trigger happy cowards, regardless of who they're dealing with.
Like this story
>Cop goes to wrong house
>17 year old white teenager opens the door with a wii mote
>cop shoots him dead on the spot
>cop walks free

Keep in mind that white officers killing blacks only makes up 5% of all police killings in the US, for every story like the one in the OP there are 19 being hidden under the rug.

That's what always amazes me about this shit. Unless there's a reason to bitch about "muh ebil whitey" the story isn't newsworthy. The Amaund Arbery thread pretty much died after it became overtly clear it wasn't a "modern-day lynching."

Best I recall, they've been attacked by other police departments in the past for having really shitty hiring standards.

This thread got more posts because its an internationally discussed topic, the other thread was lucky to have made it out of the local papers.
The idea that something should be done to prevent this incident from happening again has traction, while the idea that something should be done to prevent the racial killing in the other thread from happening again has no traction.

The proposed solution of 'kill all cops' or at least 'kill these four cops in particular' aren't very useful or sustainable solutions. Then again, people aren't looking for solutions, they just have a case of the bloodlusts and gibmedats.

I'd concede to that point if this wasn't KF. I would say a good 75% of the posters arguing that this was a fuckup on the cop's part aren't coming from the stance of it being racially motivated.

plenty of people in this thread are arguing for a murder or negligent homicide charge, not a lynching. there are lots of solutions that aren't "kill all pigs."

Has there been evidence that this was a racially motivated event and not just cops being cops?

yeah that was kind of my point, and the point of a good chunk of posters here. maybe I just phrased it wrong, but I was saying that the majority of people in this thread arguing that the cop fucked up aren't saying it was because the dude was black.

 

[Learned Hand]

Has there been evidence that this was a racially motivated event and not just cops being cops?

Of course not, and there has *never* been any evidence that blacks are killed at a disproportional rate by law enforcement when you consider the volume of crime that occurs within such a small population.

Which is why I have a very hard time taking any msm or social media grifters that allude to a racial motive seriously. Cops just murdered a guy because they were being bad cops.

However regardless of justification the situation in Minneapolis has devolved into a full scale riot at this point. Nothing says you're feeling sad like looting a 65" TV from Target.

No one (except a couple weirdos) is saying "kill the cops" they're saying "perhaps these cops should be charged with manslaughter" you utter brainlet.

 

[Coldgrip]

so why not maintain control of the perp's wrists with that little groove? Slip a thick ziptie behind it and the perp's belt loop and have a ghetto hogtie.

Not a clue and honestly don't care.

As for the hogtie thing, imagine the headline: WHITE COPS HOGTIE INNOCENT BLACK MAN. It's a shitshow either way you slice it.

Besides, you only hogtie autistics when they try to give speeches in the middle of Target.

If they're a pedo, or a terrorist, maybe.

Counterpoint: Furries and Pedophiles. (But I repeat myself)

Communists, animal abusers, autistics, the asshole that can't make up his mind what lane he's driving in...

I can certainly understand people being pissed off at this as the cops in Minneapolis have a clear track record of massive fuck ups, but shit needs to be directed at leadership there. Normally when you see a pattern of misconduct from a small unit, it is almost undoubtedly leadership's fault.

 

[Coldgrip]

Except that one can be white and still not be white trash. One cannot be black and still not be the n-word (as per its definition).

Nigga wut? There's a difference between being black and being a nigger, and before you spew shit about how that's the classical definition, words change.

Also kinda funny that you're taking about how it's okay to call people white trash but take umbrage with the word 'nigger' when your avatar is Hulk Hogan.

From now on refer to niggеrs as black sewage. I have it on good authority, that kind of formulation is fine.

They're outside of Derek Chauvin's house right now. It's a live feed.

I just wanna know what goes through a looter/rioter's head when this happens. Like it's usually organized to go against something, but then people are causing property damage and minimum low-tier casualties (injuries of any kind caused by riot) and then looting the store. At what point does the riot go from "social justice" into "FREE-FOR-ALL"?

It's like Bernie's free shit platform, only retarded and in reverse.

Edit: they deserve something. The fact they're not taking from the offending party is really secondary.

I feel like that's a large difference between protests usually involving BLM and protests usually involving the Second Amendment. Actually what sort of injuries or casualties have there been whenever a Gun's March or armed protest happens? I never hear anything from those but a shit load of the former.
