I despise double-standards wherever they are and in whatever form they take.

I may need to call in sick that day. I work about a block from Michigan's state capitol.

Stay the hell off of the MetroLink as well.

Maybe we should have a day of rage. Not a white thing, but rather supporting our men/women in blue and rage against the pieces of **** they try and protect us from.

 

[Ironcitysteelers]

O wait, we got jobs and ****.

You are so blind to your privilege.

You would have the full weight of the federal government shutting that racist **** down yesterday.

I'm only 52. Up until I was 5 or so (late 60's), when many people had indoor running water, we lived in a tin roof house with a pump outside and took a bath in a galvanized tub. White privilege can kiss my hairy, white ***.

We were homeless for about a year. Good times. I remember looking in the empty fridge and the cabinet had a can of salmon in it. That's all. Neighbors would feed us while my mom was at work because they knew we were hungry. I knew from about 11-12 years old that college was the way out of the cycle.

I support the majority of the men in blue, but let's not pretend there aren't some bad apples out there, beating people up and shooting folks unnecessarily. There is NO DOUBT that cops were getting worse and worse with the instances of brutality and they should be punished with crimes when they do so.

To blindly "support" either side is ignorant. People killing cops are wrong. Cops using unnecessary/lethal force is also criminal. You have to view it case by case and not blindly support either party.

I don't know if in fact police are "getting worse" in terms of race relations, or if instead the advent of cell phone videos and the increasing population size accounts for the greater frequency of reporting of such instances.

And of course, some police officers misuse their authority, up to and including inflicting harm or even killing citizens. The question is, "Is this a problem that is endemic and widespread as BLM believes, or simply a matter of 50 or 250 or 1,250 officers out of 75,000?"

The obsession with "bad cops" and any shooting of an "unarmed" African-American male is really no different than suggesting that the Dallas nut job somehow represents the African-American point of view. Until we understand that the violent extremes are the very rare exception, then I doubt much progress will occur.

 

[IndySteel]

I think the solution is simple. Sure black lives matter. (as do ALL lives) So, #1 stop killing each other and #2 quit breaking the law and then you won't have to be confronted by the police.

A long time ago, someone posted a video on Steeler Nation of cops getting shot during routine traffic stops (caught on dash board cameras).

Does anyone still have access to a video like that?

I think it's important we realize the random acts of violence that police officers have to consider every time they approach or deal with the public.

He didn't need to shoot him 8 times. That was murder.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_killings_by_law_enforcement_officers_in_th e_United_States

In 2009, only 64 people were killed by cops.

By 2014 626 people were killed by cops (and then it dropped to 393 the next year).

In a 5 year span, the number of people killed by cops grew 1000%. I'd say that is a bad trend.

Cops have too itchy of trigger fingers far too often.

In some cases, they don't shoot people to death, they BEAT people to death. Pretty hard to justify those murders.

This dude was beat to death for no reason. This was cold blooded murder and the cops walked scott free.

That was the nice version. I am a survivor.

I did inherit traits helpful in my pursuits. I feel privileged sometimes lol.

Not what you were looking for, but an interesting video.

That's a great video. Respect to the activist leader for doing this. He was willing to learn, and did.
