Conservative writers explain why they’re now more skeptical of police

"In the era of Facebook Live and smart phones, it’s hard to come to any conclusion other than the fact that police brutality toward African-Americans is a pervasive problem that has been going on for generations. Seriously, absent video proof, how many innocent African-Americans have been beaten or killed over the last hundred years by the police—with little or no media coverage or scrutiny?

There’s no telling the damage this has done to us collectively, not to mention the specific families and individuals that were victimized. And, of course, the long-term psychic damage transcends the physical. All sorts of negative externalities can be expected of someone who rightly feels he’s living under an occupying army."

The videos the beautiful young women took who witnessed her boyfriends death brought me to tears. Watching her boyfriend die on the video was just so surreal. I have never seen someone die like that so graphically . I actually saw her video when she spoke in front of the press before i saw the car death scene. She is just an amazing young women to be able to keep her shit together emotionally like that and communicate to us like that. Maybe one day all cars will have to have video cameras in them .

Not to mention the fact that there was a 4 year old in the backseat.
 
Last weekend in Chicago, 64 blacks were shot by other blacks. Zero protests. Obvious proof that the so-called 'black lives matter' is a racist movement.

It's time blacks learn to love their kids more than they hate white people.

Since we're just posting irrelevant facts:
  • In 1984, a New Jersey man opened a summer camp for Cabbage Patch dolls.
  • An average person laughs about 15 times a day.
  • The first known contraceptive was crocodile dung, used by Egyptians in 2000 B.C.
  • The world population of chickens is about equal to the number of people.

They should have to wear a digital broadcasting camera and mic on their hat, especially in urban neighborhoods where there have been previous problems and shootings...camera records to a remote location.

Nothing will change until we start watching them for a change. There's surveillance cameras everywhere else.

ACCOUNTABILITY. If we can't hold police and everyone else in government service from bottom allllllll the way to the fucking top accountable for their actions then we face a choice as a nation; tyranny or a free for all. The end result of either isn't pretty.

Do we even know the number he posted is correct or anywhere close to it?

http://time.com/4165576/chicago-murders-shootings-rise-2015/

468 murders in all of Chicago in all of 2015, so I think that statistic of his is just a lil exaggerated.

I get so tired of the "What about Chicago" bullshit, that I don't even see the numbers anymore. The pseudo-concern about the city of Chicago is fucking laughable.

Worse, it's a lie. Plenty of places in this country are worse on a per capita basis. Like Albuquerque.

Again, it's missing the point. The point is, why is this country gone so fucking right wing? Why am I supposed to hate or be afraid of someone because of the color of their skin or national origin?

Unless they're billionaires, they're on MY side. Maybe they just need a lil convincing that we're all in this together and we can make our country work again if we stand united.

Against BOTH party establishments! They're both bought and paid for by the American nomenklatura, the donor class.

The only thing that will fix this issue is regular cops need to be UNARMED with lethal weapons.
If a situation is escalating and out of control, then call in for back up with gun carrying (and INTENSELY trained) officers.

Everytime a shooting happens you hear defenders start throwing out the cost of training... well then.. instead of giving a half-ass training course to EVERY policeman. Give a rigorous training course to a select few units. Regular cops go out on calls, if things are bad they call in for backup....

Police in europe arent running around with guns.
