No, I can't defend either of these cases, either. I was just pointing out that while police brutality is an issue, cooperation with police is lacking in most cases that we hear about. I'm not defending brutal police when I say this, but sucking up pride and cooperating might not kill some people.

"indisputably" translates to "i'm afraid of opposing opinions"

Agreed Darth, thus my typical support. By all accounts, both victims were fully cooperating and respectful yet were still shot. Not good.

Two burly policemen tasered a guy and havent been able to disarm the suspect or put on hand cuffs. Instead, they presumably panic and shot the victim 6 times. great job! America's policemen must be world's finest. not to mention that they tried to cover their failure with a blatant lie to come away with homicide, which seems to be an approved way to deal with those situations. I really hope that they dont get away with that, but I have no doubt they most likely will.

This sarcasm coming from Germany.

They won't. There is video evidence of their bullshit. Dude, who pissed in your coffee?

Germany doesn't have good cops.

But I find it ironic that were hear talking about US Police Brutality when there is China. And probably Vietnam. And lets not even talk about Mexico. Or Indonesia.

You think US prisons are bad? Try a third world prison.

Yeah, but we all know when the U.S does something wrong it's immediately three times worse than when someone else does something wrong.

On a less snarky note, police brutality is a real problem in the U.S, and both police and average citizens need to figure out how to establish a better relationship.

Interactive map from Guardian, more Whites are killed by Police Brutality than Blacks each year. However, since white population is far larger than black population, blacks killed represent greater percentage of the black population. Nevertheless, since blacks as a race have disproportionally higher crime rates than Whites, logic goes they will be in more negative interactions with the Police. Overall I think it evens out.

The issue is more about Police abusing his powers against an uncooperative suspect, little more. Though I would still give the Police, especially ones in America, the benefit of the doubt. When every suspicious criminal could be hiding a potential gun, I wouldn't take any risks myself.

The issue is a tragic one, but has definitely been politicized. A certain party likes to take advantage of the tragedy to play race-baiting politics since it appeals so well to its voters.

The irony: Democrats started the KKK, but they are more popular with blacks today.

Shows you how uneducated the average black is.

Lets just admit it: If we were to block people who didn't graduate from high school from voting, and were to require a few simple tests on US History and basic government structure, the Democratic part would collapse overnight.

Except the Democratic and Republican parties switched platforms in the time since the KKK was founded. Those democrats are more ideologically associated with today's Republicans...

Shows you how uneducated the average troll is.

No, not really; the idea that they switched platforms entirely is a common misconception.


In core economic and social principles, Democrats are the same as they were 100 years ago; the only thing they've lost is the KKK.

Of course, extremism is always growing; today's Socialist and semi-Socialist Presidential nominees Sanders and Clinton are simply more extreme versions of the William Jennings Bryan and FDR of times past.

Parties haven't "switched" they've merely "adapted". To say that the Republicans are really any closer in ideology to KKK Democrats of the 20s and 30s is naive at best, and mere political slander at worst.

But in all seriousness, this isn't what were discussing. What were discussing is the fact that the media DOES UNQUESTIONABLY take police brutality against blacks and blow it up like a balloon, while ignoring police brutality against whites.


And let's just admit it: it's far easier for minorities to get into college, too.

Imagine how easily a black female homosexual transexual could get into college. They could probably just walk into a church, wait for someone to say something, then start a movement to pay for their college just by shouting "I'm being prejudiced against for my transexualism/homosexuality."

Honestly, their are tons of people who would donate to a cause like that.

Now image a white Christian straight male trying to get into college. very. different. story.

Because to me, the idea of blowing things out of proportion whenever a black guy gets shot is just another case of minority privilege.

The same as how colleges maintain "quotas" of how much of each ethnicity to accept, even if some students of some races get accepted when they didn't do as well as other people.

That would only worsen the situation by a lot worse.
Also, I'm pretty sure the world would react aggressively to any attempt by the US to attempt to put your idea into motion.

Police state is bad. Police officers have very hard jobs, so i respect them for that. But you dont need a centralized system to do this --- its like if all the warlight mods were bots made by fizzer. The mods are examples of private police forces that are authorized to work, militias.

Sorry for bad english im writing this very fast lol
