Thanks Blue, but I wasn't referring to police officers though. I was talking about the other races who are also shot, and killed by police officer more often each year than AAs. I rarely see those cases but then I do know those of other races who have been shot and killed by a cop doesn't seem to get the national media attention nor the outrage.
There is no doubt in my mind that a tiny minority of our nationwide 800K police officers fell through the cracks and shouldn't have ever become officers to begin with. These bad cops shoot people of all races and the bad cops come from all races as well. I detest bad cops as much as I highly admire all the other many thousands of good officers who are nothing like the few bad cops.
Even when we once again have another tragic thread going about another cop/s killing the
subject seems to drift to the few bad cops which is totally irrelevant to the honorable officers who have coldly been murdered way too often lately.
If these sick cop hating killers want to murder a cop to appease their blind hatred then why not hunt the one cop down, one at a time, that they actually thought used excessive force when killing a black victim? Why target all cops for what a teeny tiny minority does? That's the part I will never understand. All I know all of these violent acts perpetrated by hatred against all cops in general must stop! Violence, death threats, and intimidation tactics never has solved one thing and it never will. Angry voices of yells/screams/chants and threats aren't a solution for anything. This kind of rhetoric incites more violence committed on those who sacrifice every day to make us all safe and they are the only way for us to maintain a lawful nation. We ask so much of them and give so little in return.
Repectfully, there is no "drift" - in Dallas he made it clear he was doing what he was doing in direct repsonse to the events the week earlier. That is not drift - it is direct casue and effect. How can there be a dialog, about the event, without discussing the motivation clearly stated by the perp?
Same here - [FONT=&]made references to Alton Sterling, the black man killed by police in Baton Rouge on July 5.[/FONT][FONT=&]
Again , that is not drift - in fact most dialog on threads here, as in life, regard motivation - that is what anyone is attmepting to do when dealing with crime.
Again, repectfully, in all walks of life, in any domain, about anything, IMO ones notions about whatever it is we are referring are flavored by past experiences with whatever is being discussed.
Yes, when I read broad proclamitations that basically do not acknoledge that the system in this country has some very widespread issues. It is not only cops, its the prison system, it the prosctors. Its the judges, it the courts.
As a minority, I def feel, sadly, that I am in a postion to know , to a larger degree than non minorites, what the AA community is living now, and has been for decades. I have lived it.
The truth here, is mainstream society is only being exposed to a very small amount of what is going on here - thanx to cell phones. You bet I welcome cops who engage in crimes ending up in jail.
I certainly hope that noone who hears me says that hears me saying all cops are bad, I do not think that. I feel the same way about MUslims, and have "reared up" (ha) when those kind of statements are made.
Its a bright group here - there certainly cannot be folks here, that in the past 18 months can not acknowledge watching the system aquit cop after cop, who , with our own eyes, have seen no threatening behavior to warrent ending up dead.
Then the dialog "drifts" in to all their criminal backgrounds. Irrelvant IMO. When dead, the only thing that matters is what was happening in the 45 seconds before they were murdered. There is a reason for the term "excesive force"
A law enforcement officer has the right to use such force as is reasonably necessary under the circumstances to make a lawful arrest. An unreasonable seizure occurs when a law enforcement officer uses excessive forcein making a lawful arrest.
IMO
