I'd be hard pressed to recall the last time I heard someone talk about locking up a person of any race as a preventative measure for mass pregnancy.  The legality of preventing future pregnancies by incarceration is questionable.


It was in response to 4 blacks being arrested for shoplifting.

   So you are saying to take the law into one's hands?  Sounds like a recipe for disaster.  This is not 1880 or 1915 or 1932.  There is a mechanism in place to address police brutality.  If you have been abused by the cops then use that mechanism.  

 

Not quite - only stating the obvious. The system is broken, and we need to build a better one.

Kenosha police were recorded thanking the vigilantes, including the killer kid, and offering them water, while there was a curfew in effect.

I have to disagree.  He was

 

Heading towards Van

Told to stop

Continues to head towards van

Grabbed by the t-shirt to stop him from going towards the van

Tazed after grabbing the shirt didn't work

Headed towards van

Grabbed again after tazing didn't work

Headed towards van

Shot

 

I'm guessing it wasn't a passive stroll to the van, yeah i took a leap to call it aggressive

“Allegedly aggressively”? That’s quite an assumption. The video shows him walking to his car to go where his kids were. 

If gonna guess you’re not black, and therefore can’t speak for them about having confidence in police after all they’ve seen happen to people who look like them.

Yeah, Floyd made it hard on himself when he was pinned on the ground with a knee on him, repeating “I can’t breathe”. He should have remained quiet. ?

Dude has several thousand followers and gets a few hundred comments/shares a post so he’s got a little more traction than the crazy uncle with 7 friends

This may explain a source of the systemic racism in the Kenosha police department that led to the police thinking it’s ok to shoot an unarmed black man in the back

 

The Kenosha, Wisconsin police chief blamed two protesters who were fatally shot for their own deaths because they violated curfew.

 

 

MAGA....

The NBA and everything else possible will shut down until we can get the attention of people who support such actions.

Yes, these millionaires will forfeit their salaries forever to stick up for the poor and downtrodden.

 

Did you think before posting this or are you a programmed robot, incapable of an original thought?

It’s called being appreciative of someone having your back.

 

I know, tough concept to grasp.

Billie I am just observing the process. Many things can be shut down and I have been on the receiving end. But today is Jackie Robinson Day and Buffalo is hosting a major league baseball game. Let's put our thinking caps on and contribute something positive.

You are not making yourself clear imo. Are you in support of the NBA shutdown?

And from the other side it’s questioning whether you should have better standards in who you appreciate and what having your back means

Its called legitimizing armed vigilantes with zero qualifications to enforce the law and in this case it *shockingly* ended in tragedy.

Rioters: abolish police!

also rioters: no you shouldn’t have the option to defend yourself and your communities kindly surrender your home, business, and rights

Yeah, no.

 

When you are outnumbered you appreciate people having your back.

 

Try again.

In your professional opinion, should the police coordinate and cooperate with a bunch of teens who rolled into town from the surrounding burbs to play Call of Duty Kenosha?
