Last week 6 Atlanta police officers lose their jobs because they used a Taser, a deadly weapon on two college students. This week the Taser should be treated like a squirt gun🙄 and firing one at an LEO’S face should be disregarded.

The man defied a curfew, walks into the middle of a police line (Police who are probably exhausted from being over stressed and over worked. Some have been shot at, attacked by people in vehicles.) then puts his hands in the vicinity of the officers holstered weapon. He wasn’t there to have a discussion, he was there to cause trouble. It sucks he got hurt, but he went out of his way to cause the situation. It doesn’t matter if he was 17 or 75. He put himself and the police in a bad position, not the other way around. If I jumped into the middle of a police line after all the rioting and violence that proceed this and put my hand near an officers weapon, I’d damn sure expect to get pushed back. That’s called personal responsibility for ones behavior, he came their looking to cause trouble and he found it. Of course you ignore the the stats and a good part of the post you responded to. I’m surprised you couldn’t throw in “you’re a racist” while you were at it... The whole Kap issue starts with a phony premise that there is a war on a Black men from police. Statistically speaking if there is a war on black men, it’s from other black men. The weekend after George was killed, 10 more black men were killed in Chicago alone with barely a peep this keeps happening.

No, in other words know the facts before you make emotionally ridiculous responseS . In 2019 10 unarmed Black men were killed by the police, 19 white people were. The police kill more whites each year than Blacks. A police officer is 18 times more likely to be killed by a black person than an unarmed black person is likely to be killed by a police officer. Stats are from the Washington post. From the FBI, blacks kill more whites by a 2 to 1 ratio year in and year out. Police consistently kill more white people each year than blacks. According to the US Department of Justice, African Americans accounted for 52.5% of all homicide offenders from 1980 to 2008, with Whites 45.3% and "Other" 2.2%. The offending rate for African Americans was almost eight times higher than Whites, and the victim rate six times higher. Most homicides were intraracial, with 84% of White victims killed by Whites and 93% of African American victims killed by African Americans. Does all this mean there are not racist cops or people? Absolutely not, there are. But it does show its not a systemic issue that Democrats are pushing it as. Studies also show that the racial make up of police forces tend to mimic the community they serve. All of these cities That have major issues have one thing in common. They have been run by one political party for 40, 50, and some cases 80 years. These mayors appoint who has been running the police department. Look no further than that to see why there is a local issue. People claim a lot of this goes back to opportunity’s to have better education. Well who has been running the schools? When George Bush tried to start a voucher program to allow inner city parents to get their kids out of failing schools, who blocked that? There is a high problem of a certain party trying to divide us by Race, Sex, and religion. They have pushed that narrative for as long as I can remember. We are now looking at the results...

Wow that’s crazy. All we want is the truth so we can make a determination what risk we are willing to take. All the misinformation makes that very difficult. Thanks for posting...

Not what I said. Dr.’s are being told to code deaths a certain way, which is different in how they did it in the past. It’s causing numbers to be skewed against how numbers were arrived at in the past, this is a fact.

It’s not bull crap it’s a new CDC guide line on how to code the deaths. Look at the legislature that forced Colorado to change how they report deaths now. It’s now nuanced to show those who died from and those who died with, big difference over 23% in Colorado, different in each state since the CDC bungled this.

The true death rate actually lies between .1 - .01 6% is nothing but a scare tactic. It may spread more quickly than the flu, but it doesn’t kill at a higher rate....

Not always true, building inspectors can be wrong and it’s pretty simple to google local and state codes. A structural engineer would be a better example...

That’s not the point, he was musing that it would be nice to be able to inject something to kill the virus, people acted like we don’t ever do a similar thing, which is the point, we do...

I love the Clorox people, like it never occurred to them to cure a disease we inject Chemo drugs a poisonous substance. Or the UV light comments when Cedar Sinai hospital is experimenting with UV light on a scope in lungs. I’ll informed but flapping their mouths... True but if it’s that or no games, I’m sure they will find a place to play...

Not really, if there are no fans, doesn’t matter where you play.

Is there always a punishment on a first offense? I can’t remember..

Is it because he had open alcohol Or was drunk while carrying the weapon? I thought that is an issue in some states.

Congratulations on the 3 years. I know how difficult fighting addiction can be. Keep up the good work man👍

That’s why you are advised to where a mask in public.
