These people a certainly helping the issues they claim to champion...basically everyone who disagrees with them becomes a racist, which has automatically increased the number of racists. And...they complain about cops going after them while forcing cops to go after them.

Eventually...everyone not a member will become an enemy.
 

I think I'll wait for a legitimate news source before taking this at all seriously.

Are you kidding? Did you miss the video provided in the article? The cite indicates it was posted on a twitter account at 2:09 PM 08/29/15.

What more do you need?

It doesn't look like it's at a fair at all, and except for the people holding the sign, it doesn't sound like too many others are on board with the chant. So regardless, it's a lot of hooey, imo, at this point.

Secondly, I can't say I blame them. Cops seem to not value black lives, so why should blacks value cop lives.

There's a video of it. They yell it over and over and over again. Animals.
 

Oh, for cryin' in a bucket.

Truth hurts. That said, fry 'em like bacon to me means that they need to be prosecuted for their murders and fried in the electric chair. Just my take. Who knows what they really mean.. It's hard for me to demonize people for being sick and tired of being murdered under false pretense and those murderers getting away with it because they wear a uniform.
 

I don't think anyone should get away with murder. But these people (and obviously you) think that any time a white cop shoots a black man it's murder. That's just not the case -- actually it's USUALLY not the case.
 

First, sorry the link didn't actually go to a video but merely back to the article. That's why I edited my post.

Second, I can accept that it does not look like a fairground, so that lessens the credibility of the reporting agency.

Third, I suppose one might think it fair if they can point to police rallies chanting "death to (insert racial epithet)" after a police shooting. Can you do so?

To be perfectly clear, my point isn't that there aren't any bad police officers doing bad things. Police are human beings and like any human are subject to corruption and folly. That does not mean that ALL police, or even MOST police do bad things.

Did this particular officer have a known history of police misconduct? If not, why vilify him and all other police in this way? It doesn't help anyone's case to compound a harm by doing a harm. You know, "two wrongs don't make a right?" :shrug:

It is too often the case. I gather you'd like to believe differently but the facts just don't support your perception.

Okay -- give me a case and we'll go over the facts.

It's ALMOST never the case. It is obviously a small number of people that believe like summer or the people in the video, but if that number is rising that is a problem.
 

I am not villifying him, as much as I'm villifying Texas deputies and sheriffs as a whole. Been there, seen that, and that deputy that was killed "looks" like a cop-thug if ever I've seen one. IF the other side gets to call black folks thugs without evidence, I guess I'll be able to suggest that this deputy might have been a cop-thug without clear evidence.
 
since when does the "small government lovin" tea party rebels love the cops?

 

Tit for tat would certainly concentrate the minds. It could make Black Lives very interesting.
 

Scum is scum...white or black. Obviously, the mainstream media is fearful of this bunch. But, that they are scum is pretty clear for all who dare look to see.

at the bundy ranch they pointed rifles at police, I just posted two tea party members who killed 2 cops

....did any of these BLM protesters kill police or did they just hold up a sign? why are you more scared of them?

They certainly were prepared to. Had blacks been doing the same thing to protect one of their own, military assault would've happened quite quickly and many would have been killed. But since they were white folks, that didn't happen. So now it's black folks turn to threaten the PtB, so what?
 

I doubt it. Lots of black people do stuff and cops don't kill them. Not buying it.

So, they didn't kill cops. Thanks.

Neither have the protesters in the video above. So what's your beef then? Only whites can threaten law enforcement in your eyes?
