Isn't that the fire department?

not when police departments as a whole are in damage control mode

every police department facebook and twitter is now full of pictures of saving cats and fixing bikes and patting lil black kids on the head and praying with homeless ppl with captions like "see not all cops are bad"

if you pull over for a cop car you are essentially sentencing some brown kid to death

Meh, I just pull over. Learn how to pick your conflicts - it's not worth getting in trouble over something that doesn't even involve you.

i did a ride along with a cop once (family). turns out, cops deal with people worse than them for 95% of the day. the other 4% is writing tickets, and 1% is shooting people. so yeah i get out of the way (IF IM IN THE WAY, IF IM NOT I DONT STOP FOR NO REASON LIKE loving IDIOTS)

I let em pass and then follow them for a no-redlight, no-traffic express route to my destination

I followed one from a small town 10mi west of where I live doing triple digits most of the way. He was off duty, from my home town , and in a brand new Charger at the time. He came out of a bank sideways and just followed suit and paced him about 5 car lengths back on my Triumph Daytona and enjoyed the ride home. No people of color were harmed.

just let the cops go where they want. it's kind of like bowing deeply in respect as if we are in medieval japan and samurai warriors are rushing to attend a lord or cut a person in half with this sweet sword

when I was a cop and I had nothing better to do I would always give out tickets to anyone who was driving any amount over the limit. my absolute favourite thing was people who would seriously try to argue that they were allowed to break the law by X amount

you speed, get fee'd

The Good Book explains the biblical path of the revolutionary. Rather than fighting with hatred and violence, you defeat their evil with good by treating them properly and with love and nonviolence.

It's in Romans 12

quote:

Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone.
18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[d] says the Lord.
20 On the contrary:

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”[e]


21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.


Has this not been the most effective method in the struggle for civil rights ?

Dr. King followed this strategy in action

quote:

[T]hrow us in jail and we will still love you. Threaten our children and bomb our homes and our churches and as difficult as it is, we will still love you. Send your hooded perpetrators of violence into our communities at the midnight hours and drag us out on some wayside road and beat us and leave us half-dead, and as difficult as that is, we will still love you. But be assured that we will wear you down by our capacity to suffer and one day we will win our freedom. We will not only win freedom for ourselves, we will so appeal to your heart and your conscience that we will win you in the process and our victory will be a double victory. [2]

The victories of the civil rights era were large steps in the long march, but the strength of spirit is needed for the left to have any success today.

I've got an 08 Daytona and it gives me an erection still, but I find it funny how often owners of them feel the need to tell the world
