Prolific's anger issues definitely aren't what I expected from an infantry soldier

I believe I'm wondering why I'd need to give a speech like that? When you sign the dotted line you know what could happen. What a great post.

Even in this oversimplified version of what happened, the end result could have been avoided if tweedledee and tweedledumb had some common sense.

I'm talking about you being so small minded that you suggested I was afraid of black people you arrogant ****.
Oh, my bad, you probably don't even have elaborate and bizarrely graphic fantasies about having the opportunity to shoot a black guy..

I'm afraid one of these black individuals you're referring to gets froggy and tries something stupid, resulting in me putting a hollow point through his head. No open casket funeral for mommy and daddy. That's what I'm afraid of.
Oh.

Said cop didn't kill two criminals because he was scared. How ****ing dumb are you? You know why they died. I'm saying said cop shot 20+ times because his veins were pulsating with adrenaline. Go read a psychology book you ignorant ****. The most dangerous thing you've ever had to do was probably cross the street. But please, learn me. Tell me I'm wrong.
Tell you you're wrong about what? As far as I can tell your grand point here is that Brelo is a panicky coward with a Rambo complex who finally saw that opportunity to bust out the hollow points with some "black individuals" who got "froggy". Which is... my side of the argument. Yep, he was all hopped up on adrenaline and fired, reloaded, fired, reloaded, and fired some more. Into corpses.

I'm a racist? That's twice now you've accused me of being one with no evidence to even remotely suggest it. Take a step back and consider this: if the 2 individuals in that car had been white, would you care? Would you be arguing right now? No. You wouldn't. Guess who the racist is? You.
Oh, for sure man.

There are a near-infinite number of things that, had they been different, the outcome would have been different. Some of those, as you point out, are the fault of the victims, like a "lack of common sense" as you say. Some of those are the fault of the person who killed them. Some of those are the fault of their parents, or their parents parents, or unrelated butterflies flapping their wings.

Why do you give such primacy to one subset of this near-infinite set of things?

And we wonder why they lost both wars.

WTF? I live near Cleveland and they are interrupting the Blackhawks-Ducks to say the protests are starting to escalate.... What happened did a window get broke oooooo. Burn the crap hole to the ground for all I care but don't interrupt NHL. Better be done with this before the start of the 3rd period.

Seems like a super weird standard of proof they apply to the manslaughter charge. If someone shoots with intent to kill and inflicts a fatal shot, how does it absolve them if someone else also inflicts a fatal shot?

A lot of criminal punishment is overly results oriented.

Mistaking a dead person for alive and shooting them isn't a terrible outcome, but it takes a bad person to do it.

Like someone who isn't a ****ing lunatic? Like, maybe, as an infantry officer (quartermaster corps and you know it) you should be able handle a little bit of pressure on an anonymous forum. Freaking out in public isn't a good look for anyone who claims the uniform, especially someone who claims to be an officer. Take your second lieutenant bars, your rotc certificate, and your ndsm to your CC and tell him your not big boy enough for you commission.

Maybe they wanted to make sure white people got the message?

(couldn't help it)

As far as your idiot comment: go eat some more leaves you liberal pussy.
It must have been a super sweet video of a cop balancing on the speeding car as he fired into the windshield, straight up die hard stuff.

Oh, the car was stopped?

Wait up, how were they a threat?

I don't think I said anything to indicate I care more about the number of shots than their deaths when I mentioned the extrajudicial execution of them, ftr.

Maybe America should fit sidewinder missiles into speed camera traps that instantly shoot and kill all speeding cars, but I suspect this is less cool in the real world we live in instead of the basement dwelling at you mums house where you spend all day playing gta online snorting cheeto dust off the titty of your real doll.

And no, I don't believe they deserved to die. But I definitely believe that they brought about their own demise. Don't want to die? Don't put yourself in situations that could very likely lead to your death. Don't make idiotic decisions that have consequences that might include the use of deadly force against you---i.e. - law enforcement putting enough bullets in you to make sure it's impossible for you to continue to pose a threat to those around you. Don't be a criminal.

Wake the **** up. Stop feeling sorry for yourself.
In honor of Memorial Day, I'd like to thank you for your service

Well the thread looked like it was going full ****** attacking soldiers because they don't like one soldiers view. Maybe just a ban avoiding tactic but you can not rule out a complete lack of knowledge of the demographic and socioeconomic backgrounds of the guys that serve in the military. You will never go broke underestimating the intelligence of the average person.
