They're The Same Picture

One Country, one flag

I assume by “assholes” you refer to the cops that killed unarmed black men, which the number is 14 out of 693,000 officers. I don’t think we need much restructuring of the entire police force other than removing those officers when they violate a decent use of force.

I myself think counting verbal harassment on brutality is unnecessary

Bingo!

Verbal harassment leads to escalation. So, when cops do that, it's also a form of police brutality. If a police officer goes around provoking citizens, much like what you saw in the videos above, and the citizens respond violently; the officer now has full opportunity to physically attack the citizen. Which is still a form of police brutality because the officer provoked the citizen.

So you think enough police are acting with brutality to agree that they are just as bad as the confederate rebels fighting to keep slavery?

They are the number one inductors of the continued US slave trade. Take a look at the 13th amendment closely.

“Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, EXCEPT AS A PUNISHMENT FOR CRIME WEREOF THE PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN DULY CONVICTED, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.”

Do I think all police officers know this? No. Do I think all police purposely “recruit” slaves? No. Do I think the police are part of a broken justice system? Yes. Do I think police are the central reason why our justice system is broken? Absolutely.

Our prisons do nothing to rehabilitate those who commit crime or behave in a criminal manner. They are simply there to house potentially cheap labor. Nothing more.

Rehabilitating felons is a great way to piss away vast amounts of money. The majority of felons are locked up for violent crimes. There are FEW cases where a convicted murderer, assaulter, rapist or whatever turns their life around. However the successful rehabilitation rate is higher for non violent crimes so if you’re in favor of spending the money on those, go right ahead.

Oh and by the way, prisons DO already have educational programs, community service programs and others. Do your research.

I’m very sorry to disillusion you but...

The police are not here to protect you.

They are here to scare you into not being a slave.

Because the 13th amendment loophole still doesn’t legalize the horrific punishments that made slavery inhumane.

Why not for the rest of their life for serious crimes? There is no reason for a serial killer to ever be released.

You’re right. In some cases, prison is worse.

Absolutely false. I’m guessing everything you know about the police is what Blm tells you.

Ask any lawyer with their salt.

Heck, ask any cop with no political ambitions.

And ask yourself this very important question.

If slavery was evil, and our justice system can potentially lock up innocent people due to a mistake, then why does the 13th amendment still allow a loophole to allow slavery to exist from 19th century lawyers turned politicians?

Because slavery remained. That was the true compromise of the Civil War.

But also remember that innocent people being locked up doesn’t happen as often as you think. Most pf the time this for, of “slavery” provides services that aren’t very marketable for free. It serves as felon’s way of paying back in some sense for their crimes.

You seem awfully defensive on this.

A felon should pay for their crimes.

But not for the rest of their life.

and u know only like 4 cops killed black people i know why you made this and its not gonna do anything blm is a good cause it really is but all the f**k nuts burning and killing are not doing good, i'm a republican but i'm not gonna be offended (despite my last comment) I just think its unfair for the cops that are actually good and people are just straight up rude to them for one reason for four cops misdoings and not to even mention their are WHITE people calling BLACK COPS WILL SMITH (I am black so if you even try to use that your a racist shit on me then your dumb af)

hmm I see

"I am black"

Proof?

what in the hell do you mean proof?

You made a claim saying "I am black". It'd be nice if you'd provide some evidence/proof for it.

well I'm just a little brown
My mom is white and my dad is mixed and its not a big claim lol

I mean my dad is black
i was going to say im mixed

how are they the same picture

Because one is a symbol of support for the systemic abuse and oppression of Black Americans and the other is the Confederate flag.

Abuse? Last year a total of 14 unarmed black men were killed by police, 10 of which had already acted violently or resisted arrest. Why are 81,000 (11%) of almost 700,000 police officers black? Blm protests on the other hand have burned black owned businesses in city after city, plus ended more than 100 black lives.

You should support your claim of "14 black men were killed" and "100's of black lives" cause that kinda sounds like a number you either 1) pulled out of your ass or B) saw on Parler and think is true but actually isn't.

even if back the blue was about "SyStEmIc AbUSe" it still has no correlation with the confederate flag

how did police enforce slavery lmfao who are you

you f**king c**t do you realize how stupid you sound? THATS NOT SLAVERY THATS A POLICE OFICER STANDING ON A GUYS NECK (Gorge floyed probably did something to deserve to die too)

you are part of the problem, and too stupid to realize it.

lol imagine calling someone a idiot for being smarter than you

Ha so are you

ok can you use something besides that one sentence cause your losing this argument

Is it cool to rape black girls cause you can and its legal?

what in the hell are you talking about
i never EVER even said that you high or something?

you calling me part of the problem doesn't do shit
If i were killed by a white cop rn then guess what 15 f**king thousand people would do a useless riot because im black and the cop is white that is not slavery this is slavery dumbass

and whats voting got to do with slavery? YOU LOST THE FIGHT ALREADY

youre just a kid, a stupid one, but just a kid, actually I can not even call you stupid because right now you are nothing more than a reflection of your parents or guardians ... so ok kid, whoever you are listening to are idiots, and you should stop listening to them, or at the very least ... fact check them. gl. sorry if I was mean to you earlier, did not realize you were just a kid.

not to be mean im not fragile because im a kid yk (not to be rude)

that isnt slavery in any way shape or form first. second, one example of horrible police brutality does not repersent all of police

he had a realistic pellet gun that had a metal gleam he pointed at officers and previously was pointing it at people in a near by park

how so? he pointed it at police, and again it looked like an actual gun

plus he was terrorizing people in a nearbye park

slavery is "ABUSE"... you asked how they are the same, they both represents "ABUSE".... got it yet?

show me some more "abuse" also they are not even close to being the same, a black man grabbing for a gun a knife or a police officers weapon is not the same as buying and putting human beings to work for no money while whipping them if they dont do the smallest of things

Slavery is always abuse but abuse is not always slavery. Got it yet?

Are you always this stupid or just showing off for me?

idk

how? that doesnt make any sense.

slavery is abuse? but not all abuse is slavery? of course not all abuse is slavery, what kind of point are you making

The point is the left is trying to connect police and abuse with the confederacy and slavery, but I’m drawing the distinction that the police are NOT the same as the rebels like the meme says.

even if a cop is abusive its not slavery

Slavery and enslavement are the state and condition of being a slave, who is someone forbidden to quit their service for another person and is treated like property. Slavery relies heavily on the enslaved person being intimidated either by the threat of violence or some other method of abuse.

Wait if we agree exactly then why are we arguing?

seriously what? there isnt a back to blue flag anywhere in that photo

wow, you need it spelled out for you huh? maybe you should know who your tribe is.

you really think one image goes hand in hand? alright bet
