More rules. Just ****ing say it: it's never OK for black people to protest. In anyway. You'll always find some dumb rule.

You care about a flag of a country that you don't even live in more than people dying. You care about a dumb song, that doesn't even slap, from a country you don't even live in more than people dying.

Again every person with ridges in their brain sees through your song and dance.

How much news coverage did these two videos get?

Again it doesn’t fit the media narrative so it got little coverage. You didn’t see any protests or riots for police brutality etc

Good old twitter. I commend the agendaless matt Walsh for digging for three days to find that one video. Well done matt, always standing up for innocent people being killed by cops.

Stop the extrapolations. Stop putting words in ppls mouth.
You want things to change? It doesn't happen by pushing, pressing, and otherwise putting ppl who largely want the SAME THING you do on the defensive.

The second one was actually a pretty big story. Not this big but I think there was a PSD thread. Im not sure what your point is. Do you think blacks and whites being treated differently by law enforcement is a media invention?

Sure, peeps on the other side do it as well but you're about as bad of an offender of this as there is on this site.

show me where I twisted what he said.
do you know that in order for me to twist what he said I would have to take what he said and make it mean something other than what he said. that's not twisting.

Spoiler alert- no proof of that
Or that the Dems are pushing mail-in ballots as a way to sway elections their direction?
Yeah, don't think so

Remember, this is the guy who a few weeks ago turned to a doctor and asked if ingesting disinfectant might kill the virus....yeah, it would, and the person.

Shall I go on?

none of that has anything to do with violent rhetoric.

the things you mentioned are things Trump could do (or not) as President with actual presidential actions (or not). this isn't pushing violence.

I'll put all the words into his mouth as I want. I've read 10s of thousands of his posts. I know how he stands on these issues. I know his methods. No need cape for FNK :laugh:

Thanks for telling me how and how not things change though. Maybe open a history book first though.

Maybe things will change then. Don't get guilted out of it by conservatives who want things to go back to normal. Show up in tactical gear and assault rifles and put fear in them and maybe they'll stop killing you. It seems to work for MAGA fanboys to get what they want.

burning buildings and destroying a city, racism solved? :shrug:

or it solves nothing.


show people in a MAGA hat rioting, burning, looting.

nothing to do with rioting. the FBI was already investigating this before any rioting.

All Frey said soon after it happened was that the 4 officers were terminated.

That absolutely had to do with the ferocity of the actions taken.

It will happen again too if this guy isn't convicted. Similar to what happened during the LA riots when those officers got off.

---

when they arrest someone, they have to charge them right away, right? the investigation was ongoing and maybe they didn't know what to specifically charge him with. they shouldn't overcharge because then it's harder to get a conviction.

Rodney King
Eric Garner
Freddie Gray
Michael Brown
Sam Dubose
Philando Castile
Alton Sterling
Jamar Clark
Jeremy McDole
Ryan Twyman

Just to name a few. This is year after year, case after case with no resolution in sight.

this is where people lose credibility. you can't drop these names that include Michael Brown, who first attacked the officer while he was still in his police car. forensic evidence proved this.

the bold is just stupid and ignorant.

I will support anyone (black/white/other) protesting, peacefully.

I will not support anyone (black/white/other) rioting, being violent, breaking the law.

George Floyd's own girlfriend doesn't want rioting, wants peaceful protesting.

it's this type of post that doesn't help anything, just more divisive.
