By Pac-12 Go To PostSo let's recap, they'll choke out a black man, but a gator can pull some shit and it's cool.Do you want to go to war with this?

I wish people would stop calling cops pigs. I have a pig who is very sweet and would never hurt anybody.

President ain’t got that much power.

He had a democratic majority until 2010, he tried to appease people and "reach across the aisle" to folks who wasn't trying to hear it.
Fuck I'm so tired of that "gop wouldn't let them" shit. 2 years of a super dem majority. Stop letting them the fuck off the hook.
I love how Obama has quickly transitioned into "I'm just one vote like everybody else" 😂
Watching previous presidents mold their image in retirement has been more interesting than I expected
Either way, if he'd spent half his energy on corrupt cops instead of cartels then I'd be at least open to the idea that he did what he could.

Oh boy riot/looter group faceoff vs. protest group on CNN NYC livestream. Police trying to figure out who are who. Fun ensues.
By Pac-12 Go To PostMeanwhile, here in CharlotteI cringe hard each time people say this stuff is unbelievable. I marched these same damn streets.
Disasterbation coverage is all these news crews are good for.
"FBI" guy video is from 2019 and the dude was a paramedic. Goddamn Twitter narrative makes me boil to no end. Such a cesspool that place can be sometimes.

aside from DYbbie Downer anyone hopeful this might actually lead to something positive? Were the Ferguson protests that wide spread? I don't quite remember
By Yurtlicious Go To Postaside from DYbbie Downer anyone hopeful this might actually lead to something positive? Were the Ferguson protests that wide spread? I don't quite remember
The 2014 protests weren't anywhere near this, this is protests in every state and rioting in multiple cities, where as there was some local rioting in Missouri and some in Oakland, CA .cause Oakland is always about that action.
This is more like what was happening in the 60s and since so many people are out of work I expect it to get worse.
By Yurtlicious Go To Postaside from DYbbie Downer anyone hopeful this might actually lead to something positive? Were the Ferguson protests that wide spread? I don't quite rememberNope but I hope to be pleasantly surprised
By Yurtlicious Go To Postaside from DYbbie Downer anyone hopeful this might actually lead to something positive? Were the Ferguson protests that wide spread? I don't quite rememberNothing will change. The media is putting the focus on looting/rioting and then you got uncle toms out here valuing Macy's and Targets over the lives of human beings. It's the same shit over and over. This wouldn't even be happening if this country could just agree to punish cops for their abuse of power but instead white people will post "we get shot the most" as if this is a competition. They shouldn't be shooting or killing anyone.
They wanna quote MLK and say this is how to protest but I guess our school systems didn't go over the part where the man was assassinated. They wanna say protest peacefully but Kaepernick got blacklisted and he was probably the most hated person by Americans for a short period of time for simply kneeling down at a sporting event.

I'm sure the review will come up roses.
The problem is there is no goal. When MLK was killed and the riots started there was an obtainable goal of equal rights. Fuck the police isn't an obtainable goal
yeah I'm still a bit confused on how and when will this end, some are calling for defunding the cops tho.
I feel like at worst, now a cop will think twice before they do some shit.....but wishful thinking I know, I mean they're still shooting protestors lol

Also the playbook for even 'slighty rude' protesting is shit. In nearly every country or time period, the move to have provocateurs shift the narrative and general public perception to where it's best manipulated is one of the first to occur.
"I'm gonna go march and hope for change" is a dice roll of a strategy in the absolute best of circumstances. If people were actually attempting to organize in any substantial way, they'd be baiting cops into large, absolutely unpalatable situations in notably taboo places. If you're catching tear gas regardless for predictable shit then switch it up, and make those risks count. Walking in circles all day with the pikachu face when you get hit with smoke from the cops who just dapped you up in front of reporters who will edit the footage three different ways as they don't even tell people which jail you're headed to... repeatedly
These protests might be everywhere, but there's no bones to this

However, if I read white people

Like I said in previous pages, real change can only come from years of relentless hard work, graft and determination.
Complacency will kill this if you let up for just a day.
