I told you. I'll start caring when they do.
Til then, looks like war.
They don't give a crap about us, then they shall be treated the same way.
We're only playing by their rules, after all.
They set this standard. We're simply meeting their expectations That sounds remarkably similar to how they "solve" problems in the middle east. It's more like how Native American's reacted to the white men killing off their families during the western expansion of the U.S.A. Except it's not really like that at all.

Well this has deteriorated into an epic crapstorm. Outrage, racism and divide rule the day. A great leader, like many in the past, would come out and say that this is not a time to hate each other but a time to come together and take action to end this craziness. A great leader? Ya mean like Clem? I'm following his example here. He's done exactly what you said in both of those posts.

Trump got the nerve to say the attack on cops was an attack against our country.
But the killing of black people by cops isn't?
Confirming to us all that we are nothing more than second rate. Screw trump and anybody that's supports him. Screw the cops. Screw this government.

Look up eloquence in the dictionary and Clem's picture will be there.
Exactly the kind of wisdom we need right now, said just how it needs to be said.
I agree 100%, MrTed. Clem is one of my all-time favorite posters. I hope I have a chance to shake his hand one day and forge a bond that is more than just online admiration. Thanks, Clem for being so thoughtful, insightful and honest with everything that you post here. Not kidding-Shaking Clem's hand went on my bucket list today.

Come on man. Chicago alone has black on black killed more blacks than the entire police force of the country has this year.

J/C ..... I am so tired of hearing about "these lives matter"; "no, these lives matter"; "no .....these other lives really matter" ...... my God, they are ALL lives, and are ALL human beings, and they ALL matter. I know that they are all valuable to God, and that God loves each and every one. A human being has something like 20,000-25,000 genes. Somewhere around 378 of these determine race. 378 genes out of 20,000 to 25,000 total.
Man, we are all human beings. We all have hopes and dreams. We all have aspirations and desires. We all want to live, and be happy. We all love, and are loved by someone. Every life is important. Every life matters.
Yet we fight and argue over a minute percentage of a person's genes. How ridiculous is that? It's like having a war over hair color .... or eye color.
My Lord, my God, Jesus Christ walked this earth some 2000 years ago. He took, as disciples, people of different races, and almost certainly different skin colors. Jesus gave His disciples what is known as The Great Commission, where He commanded them to take the Word into all the world. He did not say "only go here, or there". He did not tell them to exclude anyone for race, gender, skin color, or any other reason.
Jesus never once elevated or diminished a single person because of the color of their skin. We, however, somehow know better than God, and fight over something that is genetically insignificant. How sad that is.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.

Man shut up.
When a black person kills another black person, they go to jail for life.
When a cop kills a black person, he gets paid leave and an award.

Well, I won't tell you to shut up. Perhaps you could read this though - it deals with chicago only: http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/May-2013/Getting-Away-with-Murder/Or, if you care to not read it, let me break it down for you: 507 murders in Chicago alone last year. 132 solved. Also, cops have been sent to jail for murder. Probably not as many as you think should've been though.

I work with public safety officials on a daily basis, so I have to remain silent on topics like these. There needs to be a change in the culture of police agencies. I have some theories as to why they are the way they are, but I won't post it.
I feel sorry for those that have lost their lives. Not just the cops, but the victims of cop shootings.

Dude what does that have to do with cops shooting us in the streets?
NOTHING. You're argument is terrible. They are separate issues.
How many times I gotta tell you that?
Man this is why I dislike you so much.

Swish this will sound insane right now, but I've seen a slow change in the culture of these agencies. In 15-20 years it WILL be different, but obviously that is waaaaay to long. The turdballs are the result of a systemic issue. A lot of the corrupt and police representatives are retiring or getting fired. You're seeing awful leadership causing this.

It's been awful leadership since 1865.
How long did you expect us to wait before we started retaliating?

So, when a black kills another black, it doesn't matter?
Got it.
You know cops kill white people also, right?
You make it sound as though just walking down the street and seeing a cop is reason enough for a cop to shoot you. It isn't that way.
But you go on, threatening war on cops. That won't serve you well.

How long did you expect us to wait before we started retaliating? I don't know how you feel. It's not my place to tell you. The only thing I can tell you is that certain types of individuals are not being hired like they used to be. If I were to try to place myself in your shoes, I'd be angry. However, I also know that I'm not violent so I personally wouldn't take it to what your suggesting. I hope you can understand why I can't comment any further. I will 100% admit that I'm biased on this topic because of my own personal experiences and day to day contacts with police officers.

A pig is a pig. Swish.. nope.. totally wrong thinking and attitude that gets us no where. What happened in Dallas was not retaliation! It was a execution of some cops and extra shooting of cops and civilians! You don't condone killing of people that have done nothing to you! (* Now if you told me those 2 cops in Louisiana who actually shot that guy died, I might understand but it still would be wrong *) Just like you do no want to be generalized, generalizing that all cops are bad is stupid. Your smarter than that. And that makes you no different that the people you despise. That being said, that dude who shot those cops and others in Dallas was probably having mental issues after leaving the military, never got help and started hating every white person he saw. The media will play up the black vs white angle when it was probably crazy vet mass kills people.

How is it totally wrong thinking bro?
Apparently trying to be peaceful wasn't working. The non-generalization thinking wasn't working.
The hold hands and unite thinking wasn't working.
But you know what does work? Violence.
We gave y'all a chance.
You made your bed. Now lay it. Y'all only respond to violence, because being peaceful just means no coverage, nobody caring.
Nah, violence is what they want. So we will give it to them.

By responding to violence with violence.
We will riot and do what we have to do until you do something about these racist pigs in the force.
All y'all had to do was treat us like citizens. That's it. We just wanted to be treated as equals.
But we can't get that. So this is our response.

Yeah keep preaching hate, racism, and division. It just makes you look bad. Even the families of the the people killed by cops disowned violence. Way to look bad to thw world.

ITs totally wrong thinking because you are shooting folks who did nothing to you!1 I don't believe in retaliation against people who were actually helping protect you and others like you. (* the peaceful march in Dallas*)
Also, I'm not down with "Black Lives Matter" tactics! (* I might agree with the over-riding theme but tactics, nope) Most of these incidents SHOULD be handled at the local level. What pressure, other than blocking streets are they doing. Put pressure ( not Violence) on those that are condoning violence on you!! Instead of blocking traffic, pressure mayor/police chief, city administrator, whoever to get cops prosecuted if they are found to be in the wrong!
Again, I believe in arming yourself and protecting yourself but shooting people that have done nothing to you is wrong and does not solve your problem!!
And yes, Cops need to start admitting that THEY have a problem within their ranks an root those bad cops out. But then again, who pays the cops.. society does! So if they do not want to do whats right, remove those to cover for them.

What have the cops done to EVER deserve our respect?
They lock us up, they unleashed dogs on us, they allowed people to throw bricks at us. They murder us.
And I'm suppose to have sympathy for them? I'm suppose to feel bad when they get shot?
Sorry bro. It ain't happening. They don't protect us. They don't work for us. They are the KKK in a cop uniform.
