George Floyd. Good Guy.

It's really not complicated.

If they can't handle the pressure, they shouldn't have gotten the job.

If what I've seen is true the FBI and CIA put their candidates through intense psychological stress many times to try to break them. If they don't break (or get to a certain point before they do) they pass. If not, they're gone. I would be in favor of pressure testing for cops too, some of them are easily triggered into anger issues and they don't need to be wearing a badge if they are.

Just like you.

There is far more situations of police brutality ending in deaths of other races than black race.

And? Kinda proves my point about how thinking about more than one thing causes cerebral short circuits.

Using the above kind of response you gave here kind of shows the kind of basement dweller you are, trying to give some form of clever response which just makes you sound like a broken record.

I know, reply again to this comment with the same thing again, and again and again.

Point in case is that I as one person, who learned about this recently, which is now historical news and a case dealt with should stand up for someone who just got brushed under the carpet?

You brushed over my point that BLM are using this to promote their own left wing agenda and cult like organisation, this is the only reason something has been done. They have something to gain from this. This is what is happening here, in Minnesota where they mobbed their own Mayor to try get him to dissolve his own police force. To dissolve a police force is not solving the issue, this is trying to destabilise their own neighbourhood so they can commit more crime.

Yes, that is exactly what you should do if you feel strongly about something.

But you don't, you're just using Timpa for a false equivocacy argument which is shameful.

Oh, ETA.

This is what is happening here, in Minnesota...trying to destabilise their own neighbourhood…

If you're gonna pretend to be from Minnesota at least spell the word 'neighborhood' like an American.

Like I said, fake outrage is fake.

Doesn't matter if he was a good guy or not .
That is not what this is about.

Innocent until proven guilty and cops following the law.

Sorry but just like putting a £1 towards a charity, it's a drop in the ocean if everyone isn't doing it, it changes nothing. There are many other cases where the same has happened to Timpa and there has been something done about it but it gets no attention in the main stream media. Unlike Floyd, where it was advertised like the SuperBowl.

There is nothing shameful for pointing out the clear inequality of the media to promote that of colour of higher importance than anything else.


Edit: Why In earth would I need to pretend to be from Minnesota?

Neighbourhood is the correct, english spelling.

Spoke like a true quitter using someone else's death for a false equivocacy.

Like I said, you don't care about Timpa.

I shall leave if there with yourself, intelligence certainly isn't your strong suit.

Point is Timpa's case should be much higher up the scale than Floyds case of police brutality and serious neglect, yet here we go again it does not fit the narrative.

But it isn't since internet whiners have done nothing for that man except exploit his death for their own agenda.

If you truly cared you'd get off your ass.

Because when people say 'here in Minnesota' it implies they are, you know, in Minnesota.

and why exactly aren't you bringing this case to light? why aren't you protesting? why aren't you looking for justification for this man's death if you care so much?

you just don't want the attention going to some people.

Probability increases of dying by arrest the more crimes one commits. George committed a lot of them and a lot of serious crimes, some we likely don't even know about. He didn't deserve to die but he also didn't deserve the funeral of a hero. Glad some black people are speaking out about his Princess Diana funeral procession. The people that deserved that funeral were the dozen or so innocent black people killed by black people during the riots.

This is exactly what they should of said of Floyd, "My heart goes out to his mother," Mata said. "I would hate to lose a child but what killed that man was 20 years of drug abuse."

Yea, if 20 years of drug abuse could magically take the form of a human, don a police uniform, and then kneel on his neck for 10 minutes.

This is such a cop out, why does anyone have to protest anyone's death. The point is how it is dealt with organically. It is clear that a black death in this day and age is of upmost certainty that the world will know about it, tshirts will be sold with it on and bumper stickers for cars will be stuck on.

Point is, I care just like anyone else in the world about the death of innocent man/women over police brutality.

Me protesting has nothing to do with this. I am saying just look how the world does nothing for someone who isn't of colour, why does the messenger of this absurdity culture have to protest everything I see as wrong? If I did that, id be a very VERY busy man.

I'm all for that,

Before a person even takes the first steps to becoming a law enforcement officer they should have to get the signatures of 50 people in their community who will verify that the applicant has shown the appropriate attitude of a person who wishes to seek a position of authority.

Let's double down. Get an independent pollster to do it ... and if they get even one "No Vote" along the way ...

It's not a vote I'm talking about, it's list of signatures.

a reply to: BlackProject

The Timpa case is a perfect example of the need for Crisis Intervention Teams, providing proper training for officers in how to handle mental health calls, along with mental health professionals who accompany police on such calls. Case studies have demonstrated much better outcomes for all involved, significantly reduced criminal charges and incarceration, and have been overwhelmingly viewed as a positive by law enforcement. We cannot continue dumping our societal problems on our police. It's not fair or practical or helpful for anyone.

But please expand on your actual point here, because it's not clear to me. I can easily condemn the actions of the cops in both situations. Are you equally outraged at the actions of the police -- regardless of the race of the victim? Are you outraged because the cops who killed the Black guy are held to a different standard than the cops that killed the White guy? Are you outraged because the White guy didn't get the same glory as the Black guy?

What is your ultimate point?

So ... you want to see 50 of George Floyd's previous 'roommates' siggies on a list. An industrial fella could go right to the local data base and get a map of where they live post-incarceration.

Do you even think before you post?

What are you ranting about?

You don't make as much sense as you think you do.
