Ridiculous. Somehow, a shitload of white cops arrest black people everyday without incident.

But yeah, it's probably not in their self interest to use excessive force. I agree they should stop doing that. Threatening to fucking kill the "suspect"(is this kid even a suspect in a crime) is probably also against a cop's self interest.


So you think cops are simply targeting blacks because of their race and killing them or beating them up? Just their hatred fuels them?

Where did I say that?

I think it's undeniable that some cops are racist and that some of these well publicized incidents are the result of racism. I don't think every cop is racist, and this is now the 4th time in this thread alone I am saying that to you. Hopefully you won't ask a 5th time.


You are clearly assuming that if a cop does something aggressive toward a black person they are racist. If the statistics show that the police kill more people of other races isn't it likely to assume that the police feel empowered over all of us rather than - police hire and attract racists and only black people need to look out?

There are going to be racists in any large number of people. There are systems in place to weed them out, but I don't think it serves anyone to scream racist the instance any incident goes public.

We don't know the circumstances prior to the video, but I certainly question whether his primary motivation was racial hatred that trumped his own self-interest. It could be, but if that's your narrative based on just the video you are pushing an agenda.


When does this stupidity end? Why are you hellbent on trying to convince us that no white person is racist? Why do you believe that you are being victimized?


When did I say I was being victimized? I'm the one who believes in facts and evidence. You are the one who believes in invisible facts that we just must cling to. Just assuming racism is the path to a total meltdown. It's automatically assuming that an asshole is only that because of the person's skin. It's neither productive nor hopeful of anything better. And it leads to things like this:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/gra ... ea89f61b40

http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/09/us/missou ... index.html

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/ar ... le/484418/

You want to tell me that the judicial system is racist, as it pertains sentencing. I believe it. You want to say that black people have been put in a terrible economic position because of racism? I agree and say let's look for answers.

To assume that racism is present in police encounters absence of any context other than the race of those involved, and we have entered into dogma.


I've never said this cop was racist. In fact I rarely say anyone is racist. Every week there appears to be a thread where you're trying to convince everyone that whites aren't racist or that n-word is some magical word that everyone should shout. You take some really odd and intellectually dishonest positions. It comes off like you believe the actions of other whites is a reflection on you so you need to defend their behavior or motives.


You are reflecting your own insecurities here. I've attempted an intellectual discussion. Framing everything as a racially motivated action is dangerous cue the links. I'm debating a framing narrative. I don't care about the sanctity of my "race" or whatever bullshit you are trying to turn this into here.

Because it fits his usual bigoted narrative . Like when he talked about a "firearm" being recovered. Later amended to state that a bb gun was found


You feel comfortable to label me based on a few arguments. You don't even attempt to understand what I am saying without resorting to name calling.


Your arrogance is amusing.

To suggest that I don't understand what you're saying is akin to saying that I don't understand that water is wet. Your racist tendencies are readily apparent.

Imo you may be the most reprehensible person that has ever regularly posted here


It's insult after insult from you. You have the agenda. I don't. If you want to debate facts I'm here. Want to play the victim card, well you seem to have that one down, but you are beyond ridiculous at this point.


That's the thing of it. We've had discussions here about Israel, religion, politics, abortion and a variety of other hot button issues. In none of them did any rational poster defend an insult or get as aggreived as you when called on your your cutesy crass attempts at being above the fray.

And then continually bring up racially inflammatory crap like you do. Befitting your obvious craven agenda

Something aggressive? The fact that you need to use euphemisms to describe the cop's actions says all we need to know about agendas here.

But you are wrong. I don't assume every white cop who is aggressive with a black person is racist. Sometimes it's deserved. I try to look at each case individually. In this case, based on what we know now, the cop was certainly wrong and using excessive force, and there must be some motivation behind how fucking angry he sounded. Maybe he's just an unhinged psycho with anger management issues. But from what I read and saw I agree with Nas, he wasn't viewing that 15 year old as another human being. Call it whatever you want to make yourself feel better.

What's my craven agenda? When did I become "aggreived" or insult you? You are clearly lying here. You've said I'm worse than a sex offender then claim to be the injured party.

I'm still going out on a limb and calling the cop, at the minimum, a bigot and a douchebag. The guy had 2 kids to choose from the grab and throw to the ground...the bleeding white kid sitting on his ??? or the black kid who was doing a wellness check on said white kid.

Wellness check? For all we know he was demanding directions to the nearest defenseless white woman's house!

Black people-you have no chance with the police. That's the message our media should be projecting>

He targeted a black kid to beat the shit out of? And you are certain he's a bigot? Better tell black kids to just run every time they see a cop.

Lies, assertions, or otherwise, WFR is far from the most racist person ever here. That kind of hyperbole just makes discourse impossible.

I've never said anything remotely racist or called you any names. There is one person being unreasonable here, but I'm not here to rile you up. If you think calling names and pointing fingers is the path to better understanding you lead that movement.

No, I don't think it's dangerous to suggest a white man choking a black kid and threatening to fucking kill him might not have a great opinion of black people. Maybe he's not racist and just has severe anger management issues. Either way, you're acting like this is the equivalent of saying all white people or all cops are racist, which is why you continually push the argument that way instead of addressing this incident.

We don't know the circumstances prior to the video, but I certainly question whether his primary motivation was racial hatred that trumped his own self-interest. It could be, but if that's your narrative based on just the video you are pushing an agenda.


When does this stupidity end? Why are you hellbent on trying to convince us that no white person is racist? Why do you believe that you are being victimized?


When did I say I was being victimized? I'm the one who believes in facts and evidence. You are the one who believes in invisible facts that we just must cling to. Just assuming racism is the path to a total meltdown. It's automatically assuming that an asshole is only that because of the person's skin. It's neither productive nor hopeful of anything better. And it leads to things like this:

http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/09/us/missou ... index.html

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/ar ... le/484418/

You want to tell me that the judicial system is racist, as it pertains sentencing. I believe it. You want to say that black people have been put in a terrible economic position because of racism? I agree and say let's look for answers.

To assume that racism is present in police encounters absence of any context other than the race of those involved, and we have entered into dogma.


I've never said this cop was racist. In fact I rarely say anyone is racist. Every week there appears to be a thread where you're trying to convince everyone that whites aren't racist or that n-word is some magical word that everyone should shout. You take some really odd and intellectually dishonest positions. It comes off like you believe the actions of other whites is a reflection on you so you need to defend their behavior or motives.


You are reflecting your own insecurities here. I've attempted an intellectual discussion. Framing everything as a racially motivated action is dangerous cue the links. I'm debating a framing narrative. I don't care about the sanctity of my "race" or whatever bullshit you are trying to turn this into here.


Since literally no one here has said every action of a cop or regular White American is "racially motivated", what is the point of your posts? You continue to accuse me and others of things that aren't true but then you demand that we give white cops and White Anericans the benefit of the doubt. You're full of shit. You're not trying to have an honest discussion. We've had honest discussions on nearly every topic around here.

If I can be called a racist in the least then it means that our public discourse has gone insane.

You have your opinion and I respect it. While I also agree that it makes some cool discourse impossible, imo so do the increasing majority of that racist's posts.

I'm sorry but his postings are nothing more than shit stirring increasingly based on race. And even Steve wasn't this offensive

I've made my point repeatedly. This has been framed as a racially motivated police attack in the media. I've said that it's jumping the gun and dangerous because of several instances of this type of behavior spilling out of control. You resorted to cussing and race baiting because I don't jump to endorse your witch hunt. Carry on.

It's all subjective so you're wrong

WFRC if you agree with Ajent's position why not say so?

Because it fits his usual bigoted narrative . Like when he talked about a "firearm" being recovered. Later amended to state that a bb gun was found


This is a lie btw. Not that you care.



I apologize. Those were Shakes' words, not yours.

Not a lie, but a mistake on my part.

But I still think you're a racist asshole. Based on your posting history


I've never said anything remotely racist or called you any names. There is one person being unreasonable here, but I'm not here to rile you up. If you think calling names and pointing fingers is the path to better understanding you lead that movement.


It's you.
