So if social media and CNN blast how bad cops are 24/7, then of course the simple-minded fools in this country will believe it. Look at how that whole defund the police movement has backfired in their faces. There is now more crime and more death because of it. Not because cops are bad, but because people are bad. Because the only thing separating us from them is the police.
    i'm not even going to defend the media's narrative. i don't believe most cops are racist. i think the job they carry out is difficult and they have to make split second decisions...the pleasantries take a backseat because of the nature of their job. so liberals automatically assume they are racist just because they don't treat criminals like royalty.

    my argument is we have a police force in place to serve the public, when did it become more important for police to do whatever they feel is necessary even if it's harming/killing the public? if you have traveled around the world, you would observe that other countries can have a police force without them being militarized and so arrogant. they know their place. American cops think they are the most important authority on the planet.

    I support the death penalty in theory but not in practice, too many people on death row were found to later be not guilty of the crimes they were convicted of...and they were usually of the non-white variety.

    How is this true? If police are killing the public, then where are the bodies? I just explained to you that Blacks are killed by Blacks and gun violence is up all over the country. It's not the police doing the shooting. Two NYPD officers shot and killed the other day. Where were you? You're cherry-picking a handful of incidents over the last few years and using that to say that there's some sort of crisis where police are just killing everybody. Just not true man.

    so it has to happen in a widescale for it to be addressed?

    in that case, why are you bitching about two dead nypd officers? cops don't die in mass. they're not even in the top 5 most dangerous jobs in the country.

    What's the point of keeping this guy alive? Also, how is this guy not being charged with attempted murder. Absolutely insane he is only looking at 12 years, which he would only serve half.

    The death penalty needs to be normalized. You'll see less crime because repeat criminals that are a danger to society will be dead and the rest will be too scared to violently assault people knowing they could get the death penalty.

    On the bright side, maybe getting your head split open by a beaner that ended up here through illegal immigration will change the libtard's mind on letting wetbacks walk right in, instead of being forced to swim and possibly drown trying to get around a great big beautiful Trump wall.

    You just proved my point. Cops don't kill en masse, and yet you want that to be addressed. Blacks kill each other en masse, and no one bats an eye.


    I just want people like you to be consistent. Police shootings aren't a problem in this country. Mistakes will always happen. Bad apples are always in the bunch, but it's not the norm. However, on the flipside, crime and murder by every day citizens is a problem in this country. To focus on one or two police shootings a year and ignore the thousands that die every year by gun violence seems rather insane to me.

    umm you are still missing the point. when a criminal kills a person, they get arrested and tried. when cops do it...well we just pretend it didn't happen. that's the problem. it shouldn't take country wide rioting to get the justice system to act on bad cops.

    Again, when does this happen and how often does this happen? And how often does a cop just flat out kill someone unjustly? I don't think this happens at all. I think people out there lie to you and you believe it. The cop that entered the wrong apartment: Tried and convicted. Derek Chauvin: Tried and convicted. The cop that used her gun instead of a taser: Tried and convicted. There are several more that I can't think of right now. But you're under this impression that it's an epidemic and that it happens every so often. It doesn't my man. Meanwhile, criminals roam the streets terrorizing anyone that they come across, and we have city leaders talking about less police on the streets.

    you stupid dumb son of a bitch. police have been skewing details and purposely altering death classifications for DECADES and guess which ethnic groups are the main victims? minorities.

    The study also suggests that local sheriffs, coroners, medical examiners and police themselves may play a role in skewing federal fatality data that obfuscates the severity of the police violence crisis. According to the team’s calculations, 55.5 percent of deaths caused by police were not reported as such between 1980 and 2018, including nearly 60 percent of cases where the victim was Black.

    You're too much of a triggered fatty to have a rational conversation with. Keep believing the lie that cops are just out there killing people. I hope you become the victim of a crime one day. You better not punk out and call the cops.

    i've proven you wrong at every turn.

    you say it doesn't happen in mass scale, OK, but it STILL HAPPENS and they go unpunished. those recent cases of cops being punished are the result of CHANGE. a lot of pressure from the public changed that, otherwise those cops would go unchecked like they did for decades.

    and the argument of cops being humans is bs bc very rarely do they cut minorities a break...bc you know, minorities are humans too. the cops that shot that hostage weren't even disciplined, like wtf. so what if that's a rare instance, there should be consequences.

    and i just posted evidence of decades long corruption of police skewing stats to keep their racism under the rug...and all you have to say is i can't have a rational convo with you? more like you don't like the truth! you like your narrative only, not the truth.

    You know what also happens, highweight? Parents drown their children in the tub. Angry incel boys like RRR3 kill their parents for turning off his internet. Shit happens. Shit happens every single second of every single day on this planet. The world isn't perfect. You getting riled up over like 0.003% of cases is hilarious. All it shows is that you have an agenda cause you're a failed cop yourself and you think being anti-cop is cool and trendy when in fact no one really gives a flying f*ck what your opinion is bro. Your anti-cop crusade is polluting your mind when there is bigger shit to worry about. Not about some cop that got away with it like 10 years ago.


    Here you go bro, just for you:

    I am not getting into the argument of Patrick and highwhey ...

    I am in favor of the death penalty but rules of it would need to be laid out in quite a bit of detail.
    (that in it self could be the problem)
    don't ask me about details , but an accidental homicide obviously would not qualify , but a guy like Domar to the other extreme would.

    I feel that most people would think if a person were convicted to death , that there is a racial issue ( driving force).
    Obviously most convicted and incriminated people are minorities , and percentage wise it would mean minorities would be convicted to death.
    My opinion is that it doesn't matter if you are white , black, asian, latino --- if the conviction fits the crime , that is the penalty.

    I am not in favor of slow deaths by injections.
    Something like electrocution or cutting their head off would instill fear prior to a crime.
    After all that is what the death penalty is supposed to do to a civilization; instill fear.
