This is what courage from a true Patriot looks like

Let's Go SSTTUUPPIIDD!

that's racist against stupid people.

:0)

poor ashli couldn't breathe either :)

why are you happy?

ashli invaded a sensitive area with guns drawn, not a nike store.

She never had a gun, so the cop didn't shoot her out of self-defense. And even if he did, he should've shot her arm or used a taser

militarized police DOES need to be changed a ton - back to community policing.

make police great again :)

Well, in some cases that might not be enough, as sometimes something is too big for just the police for the community.

so this is actually for your other comment ab police using taser and shooting limbs instead.

2 billion because white people don't want to reform police.

No, it's because BLM wanted to get a point across by rioting

true, both parties get campaign donations to keep the drug war alive. 2 party system, no campaign finance limits, no instant runoff voting.

Yeah :/

another problem is that politicians are so divided right now, and I'm afraid it will only get worse

end the drug war so community policing will be enough :)

Honestly, we are in too deep, that won't be easy, and a lot of people wouldn't like that. But if we find a compromise that would be good.

only very minor changes that trump did were not enough.
need to change the police culture, not just the law.

And what do you propose?

BLM was protesting systemic oppression and conservative refusal to reform police.

Jan 6 had no legitimate oppression grievance other than qanon lies about a "stolen" election.

big difference.

True, but you shouldn't cause 2 billion in damage just to get a point across

what do you mean by "total" reform and why is total reform bad?

Total reform is changing the police a ton, we just need to change a few things such as firing bad cops, etc

the point was police needs reforming.

Only very minor changes to major issues will be good.

it will only get worse because conservatives don't want to accept change.

BLM riots are pretty much over and the right keeps hanging on to "stolen" election and antivaxxing and "we will not be replaced" imaginary reverse racism.

Liberals aren't any better, as they are pushing down the strong, making fun of people who don't agree with them, and saying everyone is equal, whereas they don't show that.

everybody IS equal when it comes to receiving human rights.

salaries are different.

VP's and speaker of the house's lives were in danger. conservatives wanted to hang them :)

Look, I'm not justifying Jan 6, but liberals keep bringing it up even though BLM has done almost 70 times as much damage

the right wing has been against police reform all this time. because "there's nothing wrong with the police".

Well maybe a bit better training, but we need the police and a total reform should be avoided.

all the blacks wrongfully killed by guns should have been tazed too then?

Yes, unless someone's life was critically in danger

arm shot isn't protocol.

It's better than murder, but should be avoided.

babbitt was warned, babbitt ignored.

she wasn't threatening him, he didn't do it out of self defense

ashli could have had a gun.

Even if she did, she hadn't pulled it out yet. And a better way to stop her would've been a taser, shooting without an immediate threat usually ends badly.

why aren't YOU happy?

you should be, because the logic that applies to her death applies to the people rittenhouse killed :)

Except the people Rittenhouse killed were threatening him. The officer who killed Babbit was also a lousy officer and has even left his gun in a bathroom before. Babbit wasn't threatening the officer either.

tell that to all the cops who unnecessarily killed blacks.

Yes, that was wrong, they shouldn't have done that. Instead, they should've arrested them or tased them or if it was critical, shoot them in the arm or leg. But you can't say all cops are bad because of a few instances gone wrong. I need to go, so I'll respond to your other shit in a couple of days.

yup, she's no different than triggered conservatives :)

You make me laugh.
