This is the problem with the new wave of protests. You need leadership and vision. BLM is fading away just like "Occupy Wall Street" did(I know, OWS made a difference and became big in the Bernie campaign before he flamed out too but whatever).

It's just feel good "everyone has a voice that matters" equally stuff.

You want real change. Have a leader who can make strong, concise, and simple to understand demands that most will eventually agree with. Everyone thought I hated Occupy Wall Street just because I said they were pretty much pointless and not going to get anything done because they were just as concerned about student loan forgiveness as they were Wall Street corruption. This is the same thing.

BLM should have one goal, and that is to get the justice system to try and convict cops who wrongfully kill black men(and by extension, other races). That is an achievable and noble goal that most will agree with.

You'd think in the era of social media that another true leader to unite everyone in a common goal would be fairly achievable but maybe it drowns them out with a million voices who can all create youtube videos too.




The killing of cops takes steam out of their engine somewhat. It also validates the fears that cops have whenever they deal with blacks. I don't place cop killings on the black lives matter movement. I don't consider them to be igniters for the behavior of a few wayward fools. However if they are going to be more concise then they need to focus their attention solely on the cops that commit the act. To loop and stereotype "cops" makes their argument no more legitimate than the cops that they deride.


There also has to be a more honest dialogue too. People have biases towards police also. These biases lead to some of the negative confrontations that occur.

The problem isn't "all police" but it seems to be "all police unions".

I'm starting to agree with my friend JORR that public sector unions shouldn't exist*. Seems to do more harm than good for everyone.

*-I believe he thinks this but he can correct me.

Be Wary Of Studies That Deny Racial Bias In Police Shootings

There’s way too little data to make any conclusive claims on the topic.

Seems like some busted logic.

Absolutely 100% agree with you Brick.

Beaten like a piñata and tased repeatedly. I'm assuming the 4 cops feared for their lives.

He probably had some weed in his pocket.

Which board member is the first to defend these cops?

My money is on badrogue. He won't post though. The next time he complains about some cops being dirty will be the first.

There has to be a full story somewhere or a bigger video right? It is sickening even as it is.

No. I just saw the video yesterday. I'm guessing that the guy is high or drunk.

Maybe drunk and high, but 4 cops who are all bigger than this shirtless whiskey tango. I don't get it. I guess some police are still so careless they don't think they will be recorded.

You can't make a functioning society without killing a few people.

Just like when they used to patrol Fallujah:

Quote:
The deputy fired from the turret of an armored vehicle being used to provide security for deputies behind it, sheriff's Capt. Steve Katz said.

You riot and protest when an UNARMED person is shot by police.
