Today they protest the police.
Today they demand to defund the police. 1 year from today they will protest the rise in crime. 1 year from today they will ask why didn't they come when I needed help. |

Defunding the police will be great for gun sales and conceal/carry training!

Funny that the people decrying the police will be the ones to need them the most when the excrement hits the rotary device...
Defund them all you want..saves me from tax increases... I have my property posted, have free concealed carry without permit and have Castle Legislation in my favor...I don't need the police to handle my problems. |

The Cost of protesting the loss of one life is now up to 15 additional victims. When do those lives matter?

That would be called, a "self score".

A career Criminal... Resisting arrest after committing another just another in a long list of felonies... Sounds like a legit reason to burn down buildings, loot and destroy businesses, deface monuments. 
PSX, Instead of MalcolmX (maybe) you used the picture of MLK I consider King of the stature of Lincoln after the Gettysburg address. You may not be aware but King had visited Chennai in 1959, city where I live in; and addressed college students here. MLK had come here to study Gandhi's methods of non-violence. 
In Bombay (now Mumbai), he had a particularly spirited discussion with African students who challenged him on whether nonviolence could be effective in the struggle against colonialism in Africa, according to the Martin Luther King Jr. Research and Education Institute at Stanford University. 
While speaking to Christian congregants in India King concluded with, “It is one of the strange ironies of the modern world that the greatest Christian of the 20th century was not a member of the Christian church.” In 1962, Nelson Mandela (SA) was arrested. He was released in 1990 but that's another Gandhian story. My point in this interruption includes, (yes, I've been following this thread); why would police use extreme force on a unarmed person (criminal or not) when he is drunk, or incapacitated because of drugs? |

It's called IRONY...
Of course I would use the picture of a man who professed peaceful protest rather than the man who originally abdicated violence to forward that message. That in itself is the message behind the words... SMH |

My recollection from school was that the first 'cops' were formed by a Mister Peel, in England, and they were known as Peelers. They were to reduce street crime, eg. catching pickpockets and apprehending thugs.
The selection criteria was to be old enough to be 'respected', and young enough to administer a thrashing. World wide they seem to concentrate on administering thrashings, of one sort or another. Because of the selection criteria, naturally a group of similar people would favor more similar people in their ranks, not diversity. Carry that forward, with barely educated, barely trained 'officers', festooned with deadly weapons, with a gang mentality, and great powers of 'authority', but not broad shoulders and thick skins, and you have a bad mix. Then rumour that those people over there are bad, and keep an eye on them, regardless of the facts, and you have instant oppression with prejudice. Then the incarceration cycle can begin. Another thing is that there is a difference between police, who (should) administer constitutional/corporate law - legal; and Sheriffs and Marshals, who administer actual law - lawful. Legal is not the same as lawful. Not always interchangeable. Statute law (police) doesn't apply to free men. Most people are not free though. Sheriffs work in court rooms, where police can only attend as complainants and witnesses, not as court officials. All lives matter; a uniform does not make a thug not a thug; voters allow agendas and laws to be considered, and passed or rejected; your representatives are doing what you let them. |

We have similar problems in australia, just less well reported. Our protests are usually peaceful, so don't attract attention; the media suppress incidents by not reporting them; racism and injustice still happens here daily.
Don't ask countries occupied by folk who used terrorism and genocide to profit, how not to cause harm. Ask happy peaceful nations. |

So on the news this morning they interviewed a black guy. Reference to statues being taken down. He compared churchill with Hitler saying they were both guilty of murdering millions of people 🤬
This is why they will loose support imo. He should think about it, if Hitler had of won the chances are that he would of irradicated black people to along with all the other ethnic groups! Yet where are these protesters when modern day slavery is rife? Easy to blame history and what it achieved. Not so for the present day. |

when they say refund the police department ... all they mean... is put some of that $ back in the neighborhoods... for programs that can help them ...
and having these police live in the areas ...not out of city's like they do now ... that has been a lot of the issue in the first place ... I do believe their will be good changes coming ... an more peaceful streets ... and I am not saying that all bad will change ... but this is good place to start...

Why don't Black Lives Matter focus on 'black-on-black' crime Because there is already a system that does that. |
