That was sort of my point. That Fox news commentator is not discussing things in a serious manner. He’s just a guy manipulating things to appease the audience.

You didn’t vote the source of your numbers. It has been debunked. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/jun/05/larry-elder/larry-elder-mislabels-statistics-fatal-shootings-p/ I can not find a source that makes any of the claims you made. It also doesn’t address all those interactions that do not include death. This stuff has been studied to the moon and back. They have tried to compare outcomes of similar crimes between whites and minorities. I have yet to see a serious study, that takes an honest look at the situation, that suggests what you claim.

kudos on missing the sarcasm directed toward your poor math skills.

i’m guessing he is against COVID-19 testing because the infected numbers will go up.

Thank you for your parting ignorant thought. It was the cherry on top of a scrumptious dessert.

I am not going to keep doing this with you. Quite frankly, at this point you’re becoming an argumentative prick. This community does not have a separate NFL forum. We talk about the Bills and other topics related to the NFL. Drew Brees is an NFL quarterback. How ***** hard is this?

It is here because it is a topic where sports and politics intersect and it is of interest to the general football community.

Justified or cause?

You can make the rules whenever you get the $200/month sever bill and send the check.

Thanks for your observation. Drew’s comments are of a political nature related to sports. That’s on you.

You don’t have to visit this topic.

No judgment, but that’s an awesome phrase. Lol

well, just to warn you. I think this is a great bet. But given that I lose every bet I am sure of this is horrible news for anyone else who agrees with me.

Comfort is what got us here today. If you are uncomfortable, then maybe ask yourself why.

How would you like me to answer that? Composition of votes? Party registration? One example would be the presidential election in 2016. Trump received an astounding 62% of the white male vote (64% of which had a high school education or less). https://www.people-press.org/2018/08/09/an-examination-of-the-2016-electorate-based-on-validated-voters/ Demographics of conservative talk radio (where white men listen to other white men discuss what is wrong with everyone else not like them) is overwhelmingly middle-age white men. Anything else?

They are both messages. What is for the social good the other is to get you drunk. Why is one offensive and one not noticed?

Have you thought about sitting around a table with other middle-aged white men, who vote other middle-age white men into office, where you all belong to a party with single-digit black people in it and discuss how unfairly you are being treated when you are trying to explain to black people how wrong they are, how this is all their fault and if you blame discrimination on white people they are cowards? It might make you feel better. It also could be that your opinion is just racist. Occam‘s razor.

1. You are giving unequal importance to the messenger over the message. Colin Kaepernick was not elected nor vetted to be the face of any movement. It is something he decided to do on his own. Maybe he felt that something is up, but he got some things wrong. Maybe he showed bad taste in socks and T-shirts. The question isn’t if he is the best spokesperson for the situation, it is if there is a situation at all. If you agree that there is a situation to be addressed then Colin Kaepernick’s role recedes to the back, as the larger issue comes to the front. Attacking the messenger seems to be missing the point by a fair amount. 2. Why are you speaking against someone else’s individual employment situation and making a negative comparison to other peoples? It’s not the same job. People don’t have the same rules. Maybe you’re not allowed to do something similar, but maybe I am. Maybe he is. It seems to me pretty much between him and his employer.

it also could be the fact that ignorant racist views are just in fact racist. Occam’s razor.

You should find a group of black people and other minorities and share your wisdom. Let them know you figured it out and tell them what the real problem is. And then make sure to let them know how cowardly they are.

That might be helpful if lack of training is determined to the root cause. Something tells me that it isn’t.

the part that felt funny to me was when he decided to approach as they started marching. My gut says there may have been some baiting there and it went south. Of course, they didn’t and shouldn’t have taken the bait (if that was intended).

it seems to me you have this completely backwards. We do not exist to serve the police.

Ours told us 10%.
