I don't mind the posting here too much if you have Birdman and master on ignore. Filthy has a lot of the same ideas as them, but at least he isn't widely rude.

It is interesting how people are here seem to be ignoring that some white guy in riot gear started this riot while black people were peacefully protesting and calling the guy out and trying to stop him from attacking the auto zone..

I think the cops who killed George Floyd will see justice and I think a protest was enough to get your voice heard. Riot could be warranted but didn't this murder just happen? You want to give the justice system a little time to work itself out I think...

The people attributing this riot to people upset about George Floyd should post some proof that protesters are the ones who actually started the riot, and not some white guy in riot gear, (that i posted) starting it.

Light up the molotovs. That's a ridiculous charge

He did say investigation is continuing and this is all they can charge now. Could be more after body cam footage (which they will never release -- can you demand those in discovery of a criminal case?).

What does it matter what he got charged with? Charges mean nothing.

We already know Pwns is a fascist. Just a loveable one.

What more evidence could possibly surface? Anyone can watch the video. It's widely available online. He murdered someone on tape.

Sorry about that.

I'm not defending it, to be clear. Was just trying to paint an honest image of what happened.

Clearly the charge is bogus, and he probably doesn't eat them at all. That should be clear by my other posts, but I'm glad to have the chance to clarify.

It's obvious he intentionally murdered a man.

almost everyone is outraged at the cops behavior

most people dont think the government should allow protesters to burn down and loot buidlings

both of these things are true

you know the scene in the movie when the hero comes charging to the rescue... that's what it's like when birdman comes back to the thread

Sorry I know you know that--I was just piling on your post that that guy (the DA or whomever) is full of **** for acting like there is any more evidence necessary to collect.

most people in this country happen to be racist, so yeah, this isn't surprising?

that did not happen because a target was burned down

the protests outside of the police station and forcing their way in their would have accomplished the same thing

"Almost everyone is outraged at the cops behavior, but they are against anybody doing anything that might stop such a behavior"

he will definitely be found guilty based on that but i think they may change it to 2nd degree possibly

but glad to see him arrested

Dang, they should use you to coordinate riots, mets. You are just dropping knowledge in this thread. How many civil rights demonstrations have you been a part of? I assume its a lot.

As usual, Mets, your problem is you focus on pointing out how the actions of victims are negative in your opinion more than (or being generous we can say equal to) the many facets at play that make them victims.

Same old story.

lol it's like you were born yesterday

as more videos come out, more evidence comes out

in fact the latest video makes it clear the other offices will be charged with manslaughter at minimum as well, and before i saw the latest video i was guessing they would be charged only as accessories

who the **** was talking about the other officers?

oh, are you saying this because you think he will be found not guilty? so charges don't matter.


i thought you were saying this because the problem is beyond whatever happens to this particular serial killer cop. the problem is so much bigger than this one murder. the problem police, racism, capitalism, mets etc

Mets,

Have you ever experienced a time in life where you just say "Damn, that sucks for those impacted? I'm sorry they are in a situation they deal with this, it's too bad that's what happens here"

without having some qualifier like

"But really, <this group I don't understand at all>, took <some action> and that was bad of them?"

Why do you always have to do that? Why do you feel the need to also attack victims? Is it hard for you to just show empathy for what someone is dealing with? To not always need to take both sides of the story and defend the institutions that cause them harm?

All the goddamn time.

Meanwhile in Palestine:



And in case anyone is wondering, yes, US police are being trained by the IDF.

I mean why does anyone give a damn about the Target? Why is that even coming up? That's what makes it seem like racism, you're undermining legitimate issues because you don't like how they reacted.

Why don't we care more about fixing what made them react that way? All sides aren't equal here, they don't both need airtime.

i actually think he will be found guilty. maybe i am naive. but if i were betting on it, i'd bet guilty because of the riots. if there had been no riots, i'd bet on not guilty
