When a person goes to the police and claims they have been victimized, the police never call bullshit right away. Even if it doesn't smell right. Smollett's story never sounded right. But what are you going to do without proof? You're going to call him a liar? Say it didn't happen? No.That’s when black people get pissed. Cops get away with excessive force too often. The black community is sure they’re going to get a c9nviction but nope, and then it happens again and again.wrong----MOST of the time the cops do nothing wrong---THAT'S why they are usually not found guilty of anythingWe see usmb republicans defend the cops every time right or wrong. Justifiable or not. Trayvon martin for example........no one is defending the cop---you people are all fukd in the head by thinking that8:46. That’s how long that cop kept his knee on that guys neck. It wasn’t right and you defending the cop makes you fucked upWho started the war? Cops wrongfully murdering citizens.Bullshit. Utter bullshit. Crime spiked when corona led to a Great Recession And people running out of moneyCrime is spiking because trump mishandled the pandemic. Weeks turned into months.You are 100% correct. The criminal element of the population will run rampant. Shootings will triple, rape will be commonplace, property crimes will skyrocket and the law-abiding population will just suck it up or ammo up. Maybe that is best. One bullet is cheaper than the police and ineffective courts.My buddy just retired after 25 years of being a cop. I know all about the cops. They need to be reformed and retrained.WOW--what a reply!!!!!!!!!!!! ...............?????!!!!!!!!!!!!I love it that republicans basically can only watch boring hockey and baseball games. Go ahead. Have those games. I don’t even know who won the last World Series or Stanley cup. Seriously. But I love the nba and nfl. Lots of people do. We don’t need trumpeters.NFL = racist white/cop/America haters
so you also hate whites/cops/America==we know
What you just did is a bullshit conservative tactic. It’s how you got us to go along with the iraq war. If we didn’t we weren’t supporting the troops.
Remember this tactic didn’t work For u. You lost the election because of that narrative. Blacks showed up to vote trump out because of blm. So yes, I support American civilians who are being brutalized by a militarized police force.
Here is what is going to happen with "reforming and retraining" the police.
You dems are going to keep treating the police like the enemy, utterly destroying morale, and any cop that can, will retire ASAP, or move to another career, and so communities will have to dramatically and repeatedly lower standards in an attempt at making recruitment goals.
AND, they will still fail.
AND, the "retraining" is just going to be fucking with the ability of cops to do their job.
SO, you will have underqualified, understaffed, un-motivated and poorly led men, UNDERFUNED, because, DEFUND,
doing increasingly less and less police work, as their focus becomes covering their ass from the witch hunt you people are operating.
Crime is going to spiral out of control. Hell, they will stop counting shit as crime, to try to spin it.
THOUSANDS will die, due to policies you support. And the deaths will only be part of the cost. Overall, society will just suck is some many ways.
By the time people wake up, it will be too late. YOu will have your Minority Majority population, and elections will just be pretend, and there will be no legal, peaceful means to change.
We see it happening already. Homicide spiking in many cities. Shoplifting, and other property crimes not being prosecuted.
And it will only get worse.
THe weird strength of the dems, is that failure empowers them.
They turn a city into a crime and poverty ridden cesspool, and that city becomes a stronghold of theirs, and even as people flee it, to escape it's dysfunction,
they carry the same ideas with them, and turn the places they flee to, into what they left, and they become dem strongholds too.
Crime is spiking because cops have shit morale due to the war you people are waging against them.
Crime did not spike because cops feel unappreciated and have low moral. thats just bullshit.
So are you admitting that not only do cops need to be reformed they are also not doing their jobs and that’s directly responsible for highe4 crime?
Are you really blaming cops for the spike in crime? Interesting theory.
I'm blaming the War on Cops.
And when you have politicians arresting cops for doing their jobs, or at least just throwing them under the bus at the slightest excuse,
that is poor leadership, not on the cops.
Nope. Cop's job is the application of force. That is never going to be pretty. It was the media that choose to present it as wacism and start the war.
And thousands will die, as police lose the war and are forced to stand down.
THAT is a price that liberals are choosing to pay, to win elections.
Part of the price. There is, and will be more.
..no need to defend the innocent
I haven’t heard of any excessive force cases in awhile. Perhaps the change needed has already happened
Been plenty of times "black people" and their white lib allies, have gotten upset, when it turned out to be complete bullshit.
Hell, remember Smollett? You libs swallowed that hook, line and sinker.
But I think we all were skeptical at first. Of course people like Al Sharpton spoke out too soon. That's what they do. But I don't think many of us on the left believed that story from the start.
I recall plenty of libs on this site, buying, it, and being resistant to the truth.
