braves- Well, plan B is what, spend the rest of your life FURIOUS about blacks rioting, never understanding why everyone keeps calling you racist? Good luck with that. I tried. I engaged you civilly and gave you the best advice you'll ever receive, clearly advice your parents and your education failed to pass along.

Hey wow so funny story, just like Katrina and Madison and Ferguson it kinda seems like the right wing chain email system did not provide accurate intel on the ground.

There was no Purge, there was no gang truce to target cops.

They're protesting over police brutality. Not just the Freddie Gray death. Do you need someone to explain to you why police murdering unarmed black people falls under the umbrella of police brutality?

I guess this may be a foreign concept for you, but people can get upset by injustices that happen to other people, not just to themselves. Empathy is a normal human reaction.

Fly, you do not seem to understand, I do not distinguish between black rioters and white rioters. I leave that up to the racist like you. You honestly think their race has any bearing on my distaste for their behavior? You are only lying to yourself.

You lied about my words. That not civility, that's being dishonest. The mods will not do **** about it...so you keep doing it. As long as we are being civil, right?

Ray Lewis doesn't think violence is ever the answer.

You know the problem you have? You take my contempt for the riots to mean I'm not disturbed by what's occurred. It does not mean I go riot. I mean how ****ing dishonest can you be?

I digress, you keep justifying violence.

So you're ok with over-riding union disciplinary rules, but not ok with mentioning how they're union disciplinary rules?

OOOOOOKKKAAAAY wookie.

back to this **** again. murder is murder. I find all instances of it contemptible. Does not mean we go riot in a civilized society because you do not like the reason a murder happened. oh, rioting is not protesting.

Why are you disturbed by these riots and not the other property crime that occurs all around the country?

baiter. You seem to having some typo's or just lying again to fit into your narrative. At this point, I believe its pathological.

You are mad at the discrepancies, I am too but when we look at it as a whole, its an extremely rare occurrence. It does warrant attention but to riot and burn **** down? Not for something that is relativity rare. These riots are nothing more than confirmation bias gone amok and you buy right into it. These riots are not a protest they are people who do not have ****ing clue. I'm not talking about protest but even that seems like a waste of time for something that rarely occurs but to each his own.

Do we ever want cops murdering people...no but to expect it to never happen is ridiculous. Do we ever want cops to be racist, no but to expect it to never happen is ridiculous. Do we ever want blacks to commit crimes that bring them into contact with cops, no but to expect it to never happen is ridiculous. Do we ever want black people to commit crimes and come into contact with a bad police man or a racist police man, no but to expect it to never happen is ridiculous.

I think many people to expect this stuff not to happen in a country with 330M people and that's ridiculous.
Who are you talking to? Your entire post is directed at a fictional person who said that rioting was appropriate.

You agree we don't want cops murdering people. That Black people are murdered by cops disproportionately. That that deserves attention and perhaps protest.

Even if it's just a few murders, it warrants protest, not because there aren't allowed to be a few bad apples, but because the bad apples are supported by the rest of the police, many of the politicians, and a lot of citizens. No matter what the bad apples do, they usually get a lot of support.

But, it's not just the murders. In a lot of cities there's a terrible relationship between the police and the communities in Black neighborhoods. In some cities, like Los Angeles, which have had some reform after protests and riots, relations have improved and the last time an unarmed Black person was shot here there wasn't a riot.

Regardless of the absolute number of Black people being murdered by police, the anger will subside when there's a reasonable expectation that such an incident will treated like a crime and when the average law abiding people in these communities are treated like citizens to be protected rather than suspects.

This burning and looting is outside agitators. True protesters are going to trash their own communities.
04-28-2015 , 07:25 PM
Where are the guys who show up to defend some dudes grazing rights in the middle of nowhere Nevada, or guys who defend our border on their own time, or self appointed security neighborhood watch guys? You'd think they'd be concerned about all this lawlessness.

Why would I answer your question when you've blatantly, I mean blatantly distorted my words and allow fly to do the same?


Spoiler:

You blatantly distort everything from the motives of the protesters to crime statistics to reality itself, so I am not sure why you expect anything else.

Okay, why is there so many responses to my contempt at the rioters? I stopped reading your post, sorry you wasted your time. Oh I know..."I'm a racist". Skin color has no bearing at my contempt for these riots. Yet, I've been called a racist. I know, people are trying to get me to understand why they happened, in the real world, we call that trying to justify or rationalize something. There is nothing to be said other than they are vandals who acted foolishly.

ikes. ikes. ikes. Remember who you and where you come from. Remember what you read and what you watch.

I'm not talking about Brian Williams saying he saw a dead body he had only been told about.

What I'm talking about is the white racial panic that ran rampant about the looting, the anarchy, and the threat posed by the refugees.

lol! Just like Brian Williams, some harmless exaggeration:

Ikes. Look, it's you.
