Police Murder George Floyd Then Riot Nationwide (Links to Streams in OP)

!!!

I wish this were insulting, but that kind of confusion is sadly not too far outside of my wheelhouse :P

Same, brother. Same. Well, not the exact same, but I was raised by deplorables. I get it.

I think I see the distinction you are making, such as in the way you and I sometimes act or speak out of ignorance.

I am still thinking through that. I generally think that ignorance or good intentions do not function as a qualifier to distinguish a racist from a non-racist. Most racists are well-intentioned, you know? But by that token, my view is that everyone is not so much racist per significado as working through various degrees of internalized racism. The people I will break from that and call racists are those who deny they have any racism to process.

Damn lol. Worth watching the longer clip.

Quotes followed by sort of paraphrase.

Cedrich Richmond: I will give you the benefit of the doubt that it is an unconscious bias that I’m hearing. Because at worst, it’s CONSCIOUS bias, and I would hate to assume that from any of the people on the other side.

Matt Gaetz: Will the gentleman yield?

CR: Sure.

MG: I appreciate your passion. Are you suggesting none of us have non-white children?

CR: WTF? WHAT? THE? @!$^$?! I reclaim my time.

MG: I’m just saying–

CR: I RECLAIM MY TIME. This is about Black people in the streets that are being killed. And if one of them happens to be your kid, I’m concerned about him, too. AND CLEARLY I’M MORE CONCERNED ABOUT HIM THAN YOU ARE.

Worth watching all 2 or so minutes.

Gaetz is the frat bro starting a fight from the safety of behind his fellow bros then running when the bros in front get punched down. Just a total pussy.

The GA cop charged with murder could be sentenced to death or life in prison.

Has to be an odds on favorite to not only walk free but get rehired, right?

The officer was literally just charged with felony murder, but Trump is not just saying the guy should get off, he’s saying it was the victim’s fault.

These protests will not stop anytime soon.

Maybe if the cops stopped making up bullshit stories about their food getting tampered with to garner sympathy from idiot Americans who aren’t paying attention as the cops go on a nationwide riot beating/killing innocent unarmed people expressing their opinons, Officer Karen wouldn’t have to cry in her McDonald’s coffee in the drive thru while waiting for five fucking minutes like a normal human being.

Fuck her, zero sympathy.

Maybe she should see a psychiatrist.

At some point, cops get hated enough that making up stories about their food getting tampered with is giving people ideas more that it is garnering sympathy.

How does jury make up work for the Atlanta cop trial in terms of juror race?

one white juror = acquittal?

is juror makeup supposed to represent the city it happened in?

No, just that theoretically you’re not permitted to exclude jurors based on race.

I hope that white juror doesn’t get to be anonymous.

It’s amazing how far out of the way people here will go to derail a thread for the purposes of virtue signaling tangents.

I said in my first post about it that I don’t frequent McDonald’s and don’t know how their system works, but I’d expect my food to be ready too if I pre-ordered. I also replied to NotBruceZ that I could be wrong

And yes, I call it virtue signaling because I’ve been one of, if not “the”, most vocal “FUCK THE COPS” members on this site. If you want to make the case that discrimination is sometimes a good idea, then make it. I might buy it. But who the fuck you think you’re arguing with that cops are useless thug pieces of shit? Save it for someone who needs it
