I rather have kids and put them in a day care ran by Casey Anthony than vote for Trump, I just think there should be an age limit to running for office. You have to be at least 35, cut off should be 65. Either of these guys could die tomorrow from natural causes. Not even thinking of dementia

I dunno how people bring up 'dementia' or try to say Biden isn't there mentally and then go on to defend Trump lol, Trump's proved every day how mentally unfit he is. Can't imagine any way Biden is even half as bad.

here's our great president today:

Oh wpg. Sweet virginal wpg. Accusing another of naïvete, that’s rich. All your politics are hypothetical! Even when reality smacks you in the face you keep things rhetorical. Like yes, republicans will always be evildoers - we know dirty tricks won’t stop. But thats not a defense for or condoning optics of violence, looting lol. Like what? No forced errors, let’s not give them softballs yes?

Hey just bc I did oppo research on you, and other enemies of the state, by listening to ur entire discography doesn’t mean I was paid! Black jack donaghy indeed.....

You people? Sensing yet another dog whistle from you. And yes trump is weaponizing the riots to fear monger soooooo? (Though my point wasn’t even political - I will hold you, Paul Maurice Thompson of 1302 cedar brook falls drive, 55101 - personally responsible. Be best.)

I agree but their primarily goal in a potentially dangerous situation is not “I have to protect myself.” Their primary goal is de-escalation & conflict management. Police officers don’t get to be selfish. They are serving the community & therefore are obligated to put themselves out there to try to resolve/prevent conflict in a nonviolent/nonlethal manner if possible.

What I’m emphasizing is while police can defend themselves, there’s also an appropriate escalation of force that is not practiced in the states. Police are literally trained to s---t to k--- meaning if they fire their firearm, they continue to s---t until the suspect is assumed dead. That is barbaric & inexcusable.

They don't s---t them in a leg since femoral artery runs there and it will result with a suspect just bleeding out to death.

so he didn't have a knife on him originally?

I'm not disagreeing with the rest of what you said though. The media is the worst hype man ever. They left out all the charges and other information about this guy.

there are literally on-camera police murders of black people who are following orders

'able to predict' lmao, so basically you're fine with them shooting someone even if they see nothing? as long as they believe there COULD be something, that's fine right?

and if you can't see how 3-4 trained officers should be able to get 1 guy on the ground and cuff him, then i dunno what to tell you.

This is where I WHOLE HEARTEDLY disagree. This equivocation of police & civilian. As you said, police officers make the conscious decision to serve in the police force. They know the risks & sign up for the job. No one is forcing them to do this. If you don’t want to put your life on the line to serve your community, that is fine. Totally understandable. Don’t be a police officer then. In fact, I encourage those people to not become police officers because they are the ones who are more prone to hurt/k--- someone. Police should be trained to handle dangerous situations far better than a civilian. The fact that you wouldn’t expect a cop to act any differently in the face of danger is a testament to how poor police training actually is.

I never said this. I said specifically that social workers ought to respond to certain calls rather than armed police such as dealing with homelessness & the mentally ill. I acknowledged that police may also need to tag along in these kinds of emergencies based on the situations. I believe Washington or Oregon has a program already that does this. Social workers are dispatched to certain 911 calls rather than police or some times both.

This is a logical fallacy. I’ve never played professional sports can I never criticize professional athletes? I’ve never held public office can I never criticize politicians? We can still evaluate performance & make rational arguments based on morals/ethics/comparison etc. We look at policing done in other developed nations & can make arguments to changing how policing is done here.

social workers absolutely deal with people with erratic/aggressive behavior on the daily—especially in the medical field. Have you been inside an emergency room late at night? It can get very chaotic.

It’s not just holding them accountable though. This isn’t just a “bad cop” issue—it’s a systemic issue. Cops are trained to be like this. They are inadequately trained (or not at all) to deal with social work which often is a vast majority of their job.

Cops don’t get to murder someone just cuz they aren’t following what the cop says, it’s not comply or die.

There were 3 or 4 cops and his back was turned, they could’ve easily just brought him down to the ground or handcuffed him or ya know, done basically anything besides s---t him 7 times?

f---in disgusting how often people make excuses for these cops.

Wide spread criminal justice reform: ending the war on drugs, addressing discrepancies in sentencing in the judicial system, entirely revisioning how we think of/conduct policing, expunging low level drug-related criminal record etc.

Police are given too much responsibility in the U.S. & I think people are beginning to see that. They’re understanding that maybe armed police shouldn’t be directly dealing with homelessness, the mentally ill, traffic violations etc. Of course there are time they may need to be present during these kinds of emergencies but perhaps they shouldn’t be the first responder.

I could easily question why didn’t the 3 trained police officers present physically restrain him long before he opened his car door? Being non-compliant shouldn’t be a death sentence. If three police officers can’t detain one man without shooting him 7 times in the back, I mean really, wtf are our tax dollars going towards?

We’ve developed this mind set in the U.S. that police safety matters more than our civil liberties. That police officers have the right to use force if they feel even the slightest bit threatened. That has to stop. It’s part of the job of being a police officer to deal with tense & potentially dangerous situations. You can’t put them in this protective bubble at all times. They’re going to have to do things at times that puts their lives at risk. That means tackling a guy who is being non-compliant & could have a weapon instead of shooting him 7 times in the back & calling it a day.
