It would be interesting to see how he would describe this weeks mayhem. Originally Posted by Jackie S

Again I am not condoning violence but when people are not heard they act out we have seen this in history time and time againOh, and by the way sweetheart, don't waste your time explaining your point of view to the many old fuckers in here. They won't even understand it and will just twist your words if you don't praise Trump to fit their retarded narratives.
and this is not just a black issue it is a human right issues
I can stand firmly on this and say if they would not have lifted the coronavirus lockdown my ass have been right out there on the front lines protesting and others would have joined me. because whether it be the color of my skin or the government telling me I'm a prisoner in my own home I will not stand for my rights getting taken away. Or the rights of my brother being taken away black or white
truth be told some people are willing to die for what they believe in and I'm one of them I made that very clear during the coronavirus pandemic
When black groups protested peacefully by kneeling remember nobody like that so then they got increasingly and increasingly more violent with every single police brutality killing so why are we surprised?
When they peacefully protest people get mad when they shout and their protest but don't harm anything people get mad when they destroy buildings people get mad what do you want them to do
That's all I have to say Originally Posted by Sienna91

But when you feel your rights are violated people will go to extremes .
Peace would be better but sometimes violence is the only way to be heard let's not act brand new..if this wasn't the case then wars went even exist
I think people have the right to protest whether it's for police brutality or the coronavirus and my comments have always reflected that I don't pick and choose
If the government no longer work for the people than the people have to do what they have to do
we are supposed to run this not them they are supposed to do what we need them to do not the other way around
So while I again do not support violence people are at their wit's end and this is what happens
And PS is not just black people riding and looting a lot of these people are white too so let's just make sure we're being fair here everyone's fed up with this crap
Killing people, locking us in our homes and treating us like slaves between this and coronavirus I'm fed up
and it's the only comment I'm saying about this entire situation so please no one go back and forth with me because this whole situation being a person of color is just really getting to me Originally Posted by Sienna91
....There is always going to be "bad cops" and we will need to purge them from the force. Some are just bad individuals and some just aren't cut out to be patrol cops. IMO, this is a local issue and not a systemic racism issue.
I think the police officer that killed Floyd should be and has been charged with 3rd degree murder. I think the other officers that could have intervened but didn't should be charged with something.....
Of course I can't understand being Black and the history that goes with that. Of course I have sympathy for anybody who has been treated badly by the very people tasked with protecting you.

oeb, I can't speak for AM. He's too much of a goofball to me so I don't take him seriously. Speaking for myself though, I will never need a cop's help for anything. I have plenty of Henry rifles for that. Any motherfucker stupid enough to fuck with me on my property will leave this earth in one of two ways - from a bullet or by my own hands.

I'm tired of the "you wouldn't understand because you're not a person of color" excuse and the "my feelings override any legitimate argument you come up with."
I'm of the opinion that being locked up for months has put everyone on edge.
Some of your arguments have validity but when say 30% of the protesters are nonviolent but are providing cover for 70% who are, then the nonviolent protesters are just providing cover and are, frankly, inherently violent.
Just like those cops who stood by and did nothing. Originally Posted by gnadfly

You look at my join date. Does it look like I run from shit like you do? Nope. I own everything and I don't run away from handles like a coward. I own everything I post. I don't run and hide and change handles like a scared baby. Fuck that shit. I post it and I own it. I'm not running from shit like you have done. Originally Posted by Lucas McCainWho are you kidding? You're Luke the Fluke. You run away from everyone and everything! You're the biggest coward and fraud on eccie. Whenever you are challenged and exposed, you pretend to put the poster on ignore because you're incapable of defending yourself. That's the definition of "running away like a scared baby". You're afraid to own anything you post.
That cop was an outlier. He doesn't represent cops. You can't just bad mouth all cops because you have some bad ones. That's the same for every profession because there will always be bad apples regardless of the job. Originally Posted by Lucas McCainKinda like you're an outlier on eccie. Fortunately you don't represent eccie posters. We can't badmouth all posters because we have some bad ones on here like you. It's the same for every board because there will always be bad apples regardless of the forum.

Have you ever been to Minnesota during the winter? You're kind of fucked either way.LOL - you were to scared to fight me and you also admitted you ran from that guy who showed you a picture of his gun.
It's not like I am a head of a drug cartel. It's just going to be one fucker who knows I am fucking his wife or girlfriend who shows up at my house to waste his time playing tough guy with me and he will be put down in no time after I'm done.
Don't be all dramatic about simplicity in life. Any motherfucker who is dumb enough to fuck with me in RL, can kiss this earth goodbye. Originally Posted by Lucas McCain

Do y'all remember the Boston tea party? Just keep that in mindYou've got to give Sienna credit for being consistent, unlike the rest of us. She's a bit of an anarchist, and that applies regardless of whether you're talking about Covid 19 or the demonstrations.
Does it make sense to burn a city down? No
But when you feel your rights are violated people will go to extremes .

you may not be black so police brutality may not affect you but when they lock us in our homes for other things it affects us all so please remember your words on how you respond to this because you might be the next person burning some s*** down when they try to take your rights away
the same people who are against what is happening here are the same people who were pissed at the rights are being taken away during the coronavirus
Keep the same energy
