Fuck you, dude. And fuck anyone that thinks this asshole is "brilliant".

Do you want police officers held accountable for plugging people or don't you? Now it's racist to want a police officer held accountable for his actions.

he's right as usual.

Yup

But really, Jones isn't right, even if the cop is convicted. How do you establish racism across trials carried out separated by thousands of miles and months or years of time, trials which are designed to rest on their own merits?

It's a hilariously unsubstantiated leap to go from the races of the parties involved to intentional or even passive racism. It also gleefully misses the point of what I thought his kind of activists are all about: holding police accountable for their actions.

This is just him abandoning his loudly touted principles to get in some irreverent race baiting that nimwits will think is genius.

 Bomani Jones couldn't possibly be more right. I don't think I've ever agreed with someone more than I do with him. Anyone that disagrees needs to reevaluate their life.

What exactly is he right about, and how is any of it substantiated?

We shouldn't jump to conclusions about this shooting. We need to wait for all the facts. The police officer has a hard job. To start, y'know, the victim was an immigrant. Why was she outside in her pajama in an alley? A lot of questions here that are unanswered.

There's no way he's right. The differences in the cases couldn't be more obvious. The women being shot in MN is a tragedy, she was just about to get married and had her life in order. It's open and shut. The other cases were very different. Sometimes people resisted and at other times there were drugs in the deceased's bodies. If this women had drugs it was probably medicinal. There's no comparison.

Everything he posted. You got a lot of soul searching to do. It's really unfortunate.

That's a lot of moral condescension from a man who believes a rape victim shouldn't have an abortion. Don't you have some doxxing to facilitate and share?

How would convicting this cop be racist? What would be racist about the act of punishing this cop for his actions? That's an assertion from Jones, and there's no way it can be right.

Yes

You're still going on about this? Why didn't you answer Seacrest when he asked you what our punishment should be?

I thought I said a private talking to from the powers that be would have sufficed? Pretty sure I said that a few times. Anyway, outside of that, I think a week off would have gotten the message across.

It's really sad and pathetic that you have to resort to lies. I'm going to pray for you. In the mean time you need to reevaluate your life since you disagree with Bomani Jones.

Question: What was the outcome of the trial of the officer who shot James Boyd? How did that jury break down?

Oh, so now you care about who won and who lost.

Let's stay focused. You can always start a new thread about that.

Nas said nothing was going to happen. Then you whined for three days about FF and I not getting punished. When Seacrest asked you what our punishment should be, you vanished like a fart in the wind.

Carry on.

If convicting a cop of killing a white person is evidence of a racist system, how did said racist system not convict a different cop of killing a different white person?

No, I'm pretty sure I said exactly, or nearly so, what I just did a few times.

Hank Scorpio needs to adjust his rankings for posters who can't let things go. It looks like we have a unanimous #1.

Listen, no matter how hard you try, you're still going to be wrong and Bomani Jones will still be right. It's up to you to look within and figure out why. Yes, it is probably going to be scary, but in the end you'll be a better man.

Juice lecture is right. Convicting the officer in this death is not racist just because other officers had probable cause to use deadly force in the other cases.
