One of the Dallas cops killed was also hispanic heritage.

Half of the baltimore cops were black

7/8/2016 10:19:24 PM

Exactly. That's why I said this:

Quote :

"It certainly shouldn't. The race of the cop seems to have very little impact on their propensity to panic shoot, use excessive force, or their perception of black people. It's a systemic issue with police departments and police culture."

I mean, the Chicago PD is majority minority and it has a horrific, horrific record. Ditto for the Baltimore PD. Ditto for LAPD.

The focus shouldn't be on the officer's race, it needs to be on the systemic issues with how policing happens. They need to address the fact that the drug war, policing for profit, militarization of police, and demonization of black people is leading to deaths on an unacceptable level.

NRA still silent on Philando Castile, they say they won't make a statement until after an investigation

that's interesting because if you look at their twitter feed they regularly comment on other things before investigations

7/9/2016 12:35:36 PM

Waiting for facts and evidence = NRA is racist

I wonder why conservatives didn't tweet about Ahemd's cool bomb hoax?
I wonder why the GOP didn't #StandWith the Mizzou race hoax?
Why weren't republicans holding "Hands up, don't shoot" signs in Ferguson?

Seems pretty transparent... one side's narrative is "2016 America is racist" and when the evidence isn't in your favor, #outrage and emotions can fill the void with some viral anecdotes of police brutality.
The trick is to virtue signal while you can, just in case due process/evidence ruin your fun... plus you can call anyone that doesn't virtue signal A RACIST. Like the NRA, amirite SJWS?

7/9/2016 2:34:22 PM

really hope our resident cop comes in here and attempts to defend the Baton Rouge PD and their actions this weekend

7/10/2016 11:02:03 PM

How dare they arrest people breaking the law and blocking a highway!

Don't they realize that a police officer, as one would expect statistically, accidentally killed someone unjustly????. Not just that though, the victim was BLACK and this is an election year!

Come on SJWs! Lets go write "BLACK LIVES MATTER" on a sign, grab your selfie-stick, lets go #Protest and scream at a bunch of cops because 0.001% of them make mistakes (and due process, the law, etc, are all racist).

At this point I think he's just trolling.

It's the only thing that makes sense.

7/11/2016 8:44:08 AM

He/she/it has been trolling the entire time. All 36 pages.

7/11/2016 9:59:27 AM

I don't think it's trolling. I think it's really, really, really passionate about its opinion on this topic, for some reason.

So are the SJW bots claiming the cops shouldn't keep the outrage lynch mob in check? I mean eventually the SJWs protestors will get bored taking selfies and patting themselves on the back. It's mob mentality... Naturally they will keep escalating the situation inch by inch, then when they test an area of zero tolerance, like crossing the line established for a peaceful protest, cops arrest them.

It's a lot like Johnathan Butler walking into the Mizzou president's car to claim he was "hit". Sometimes when there is nothing to protest you have to invent reasons to be a "victim". Liberals have lots of practice at that though.

7/11/2016 12:35:29 PM

started as trolling but then he worked himself into a racist frenzy

7/11/2016 12:48:36 PM

Have you yet to realize no one takes you seriously?

7/11/2016 12:49:56 PM

It obviously has no interest in being taken seriously

7/11/2016 12:50:43 PM

As if team SJW is capable of serious discussion outside of "agree with me or you're a racist".

Sorry I should really cut y'all some slack, I forgot that a cop unjustly killed a minority which obviously proves everything is racist. You know, because anecdote is representative.... At least it is when you want to protest statistically irrelevant victimhood narratives.

7/11/2016 12:58:01 PM

man you're rustled

7/11/2016 1:07:42 PM

I am rustled big time! Did you hear some unarmed white guy got shot by cops? Who cares if he resisted arrest and pretended to have a gun, the only factor I can see as a SJW is RACE. I'm going to go protest everywhere because I want us to make #progress... If you mention any statistics that go against my victimhood narrative you're just a racist.

so are all the police departments so horribly corrupt? They are drunk with power.

7/11/2016 3:05:57 PM

Wouldn't surprise me. Cops are known to retaliate against whistleblowers.


Just look at the poor guy that filmed Eric Gardner's murder....

7/11/2016 3:15:26 PM

Another shooting at a Michigan court house

3 dead, including a bailiff I think

7/11/2016 4:15:48 PM

All police departments are corrupt and drunk with power. Don't forget racist too.

Can't tell the difference between TWW and the Gawker comments section.

7/11/2016 5:54:09 PM

If the good do not denounce the bad how can any of them be good?

AMIRITE!

Don't forget all cops are known to target whistle blowers.

7/11/2016 7:48:58 PM

I'm unfamiliar with the source, but it seems legit

http://usuncut.com/news/alton-sterling-videographer-arrested/



But yeah, I'm sure it's just a coincidence that days after recording a video of cops murdering someone, this guy gets arrested for old traffic tickets at his jerb.

You SJW bots are good at spamming Gawker links, not so much with reading comprehension though.

Lol he said "wouldn't surprise me" vs yes, plus nobody said anything about racist but you.

[Edited on July 11, 2016 at 9:26 PM. Reason : But keep on riding them strawmen]

7/11/2016 9:25:33 PM

See, I can argue about irrelevant semantics too. This is actually a huge step up for you from "Bleep Blorp Beep Bop" you are improving!

7/11/2016 9:39:08 PM

If you don't strawman, do you even exist?

7/11/2016 9:41:27 PM

When Gawker goes down for bankruptcy... will you exist? What will you post?

7/11/2016 9:48:05 PM

Except you've posted endless strawman arguments on this very page, and I've posted zero Gawker links.

I'm obviously being facetious and making fun of the anti-cop tone ITT, and you pick that post to come out of nowhere with your in depth strawman semantics analysis.

Again, I'm excited it isn't "Bleep Bop", a Gawker link, or false accusation of racism. #Progress

7/11/2016 10:46:24 PM

I think I've figured out the SJW bots.

So if I reference a fact or statistic they can't handle, they call me a racist.
If I make an argument they don't like, they say "Bleep Bop Blorp"

If I troll with an imitation of their posts, they feel capable of responding to it I guess?

7/12/2016 12:46:38 AM

You'd think cops would not be so fragile, but it's their right to retreat to their personal safe spaces I guess.

""If we take this time to see that this is a human issue and speak out together, we can greatly decrease fear and create change," the Lynx's Maya Moore said prior to Saturday's game. "Tonight we will be wearing shirts to honor and mourn the losses of precious American citizens and to plead for change in all of us.""

Wow, what a reasonable quote... it's almost as if the hashtag for such a thought would be... hmmm... #AllLivesMatter?

7/12/2016 2:48:14 AM

You and those officers should meet up in your safe space

7/12/2016 6:07:48 AM

The original story had some better quotes. http://m.startribune.com/minneapolis-cops-working-lynx-game-walk-out-over-player-comments-warm-up-jerseys/386373171/

Quote :

" Asked about a report that seven or eight officers had walked off the job, Kroll said, “They only have four officers working the event because the Lynx have such a pathetic draw.”"

So much butthurt.

7/12/2016 7:31:49 AM

I just find it so intriguing that #BLM has been misinterpreted to be anti-police. #BLM has always been, and will most likely continue to be, in favor of accountability for the bad cops out there. But somewhere along the way, the message was distorted to be against all police.
Instead of taking the message as presented by the movement, the police and their unions apparently decided a rally against the bad cops was a rally against all cops. It's a bit ridiculous, imo.
