watched "Judas and the Black Messiah" this morning, can't help but wonder how the Breonna Taylor murder affected the way they shot the riot / Hampton murder.
also fuck the police, then, now and forever.

- very fine people on both sides.neverscared
- One violence does not justify the other. Therefore one is not an argument for the other existing.cannonball1978

- cannonball, you are such a blatant and obvious racist.imbecile
- jesus Cannonball, he was pointing out the hypocrisy not condoning anything. Now do you see you idiotic you come across?Projectile

The protests that have swept the US since the killing of George Floyd in May 2020 have themselves been met with further violence.Evidence of that violence exists in thousands of videos shared online. Forensic Architecture and Bellingcat have geolocated, verified, and analysed that evidence to create this archive.

An attorney for the juror told The New York Times that Cameron "misrepresented" the deliberations and "failed to offer the panel the option of indicting the two officers who fatally shot the young woman."

- There are certain people in this thread that need to fuck off in a big way. This verdict is outrageous.garbage
- actually her life was valued at 12 million...deathboy
- actually a pretty nice payday considering she was in lower averages who would never see that kind of pay off drug deals, or nursing.. just saying....deathboy
- I'm trying to believe that you're trying to do a bit and you're just really bad at edgy comedy.garbage

- Was shot fired into ceiling effecting other blacks? I'm thinking no. And again. Pos attorney race baiting. Not racial issuedeathboy
- I'm pretty sure he's stoked on the settlement commission regardlessdeathboy
- You act like your interpretation is the only correct one, db. Of course it's entirely possible it's race related. There's a track record of it, ffs.monospaced
- If the only difference is race when handing out charge counts, it raises eyebrows.monospaced
- oh really. well do show the evidence. i do think race is involved in the payout. a white person wouldnt get shitdeathboy

- racism, and they went over there and shot her dead only getting wounded because of their racism...deathboy
- or are you stating law means nothing and anything negative happens lawfully towards a black person must be racist? because cops are inherently racist?deathboy

A member of the Breonna Taylor grand jury just filed a remarkable motion asking a judge to release the entire proceedings of the grand jury. The motion strongly suggests that Attorney General Cameron's public comments contradict what was presented to the grand jury.
It essentially accuses Cameron of hiding behind grand jury secrecy requirements while misleading the public about evidence the grand jury actually saw. It asks the court to release the record in the interest of justice, transparency, and accountability.

Menthol cigarettes have been banned in most countries worldwide as being more addictive and dangerous than regular cigarettes but America has refused to do so thus far in fears it will offend African American smokers who smoke menthol at a rate of 80% of their demographic! 35,000 african americans die of smoke related diseases per year. crazy.
- or, big tabacco in concert with racist america is purposefully trying to kill them off, damned if you do, damned if you don't._niko
- Is it really because they don't want to offend black people? Probably more like cigarette companies don't want to lose a third of their profits.yuekit
- from cigarette companies for sure, but from SJW that have banned everything from water bottles to big gulps, you'd think they'd be all over something as dangero_niko
- as menthol cigs, but nope, too chicken to offend._niko
- Actually looks like they were banned in California just last monthyuekit

- only just recently banned menthols in UK.fadein11
- If u don't want to see riots. Don't try to take our mentholsdeathboy

most on this forum seem to be some version of centrist/liberal, with a few on either side of the extreme (myself included), so i'd like to ask:
who that may be a moderate is against abolishing the police in the USA and why?
if there were proposals to replace a police department with, say, four or five immediate-response services (an expanded EMT service with different units for mental health, domestic, houseless or automotive incidents) that would have unarmed, trained professionals... would that sway?
obviously there could be a standard detective force for solving crimes, and an emergency armed unit for incidents like a mass shooting (so, a swat team that acts more like a fire department), but no more police.
i guess i don't understand if it's fear or a lack of imagination that is the issue at this point. or perhaps that cops have become so ingrained in american culture it's impossible to get people to realize not only their lack of necessity but the fact they impede social progress at almost every turn.
- it's just so easy to imagine a time in the future where they look back at us as so uncivilized because of copscolin_s
- most on this forum seem to be flat-brained pisswater reactionaries who think minority representation and struggle is amusing and something to be mocked.face_melter
- Personally I don't think the proposal does much without first revising the rights around firearms ownership and addressing wages/poverty.ben_
- ftr I agree with restructuring emerg response based on pillars of social need. I just don't think it can happen before the other two are anchored.ben_
- Aye, face_melter - because bearded non-binary emoji really make a huge difference in the world. Get over yourself.Nairn
- But maybe they do to the people who identify that way? I mean... we're *mostly* grown men here, what the fuck are you doing using emojis?ben_
- Like most other low grade corporate effort, it's not even a lick of paint on the situation, rather a distracting elastoplast for virtuous chest thumpers.Nairn
- You're right from that angle, Nairn. But the comments on that post were uniquely anti-representation and just sounded like bitter old men. Get a Jitterbug.ben_
- simpler times can be found here: https://www.fastemoj…ben_
- t(-.-t).ben_
- Meh, I prefer the world where bitter old men whinge about EVERYTHING, including their own shit. tbh, I found those emoji overly reductive and q. insultingNairn
- so I'm not really sure how the 0.01% of people they're supposed to 'include' would much benefit. Whatever though, we can agree - emoji are cretinous.Nairn
- yeah if you're an adult and you use emojis, you're cut. If you're not and you see yourself represented by emoji's, more power to you.ben_
- if you thought my line was purely about the emojis then you're oblivious to what I meant. the world would be a better place with less old men whining.face_melter
- especially about things they have no idea or experience with. because i'm sure bitter QBN men have been threatened in the street or forced to changed jobs...face_melter
- ...because of how they represent themselves. so don't tell me to get over myself when I see a prick make another '...I identify as...' 'joke'.face_melter
- The funny thing is, for some of the QBNers you've attacked, I know that life wasn't as black and white as you're simplifying, like you've got a clueNairn
- Most cunts in life that I see getting aggrieved about third party issues are the ones that haven't had too much to deal with in their own experience.Nairn
- So no, it wasn't just about the emoji.Nairn
- thank heavens you are back face_melterfadein11
- anyone seen serenity? point of trying to make people better. as long as peopel there will need to be policedeathboy
