see what i find absurd about the post is that it presupposes that black people don't already know that black people can come in all sorts of varieties (ofc we do we're loving black and have varied interests that we talk to each other about) and that its the all-knowing white people who truly recognize us for the many differences between one black guy to the next. it's straight up ivory tower bullshit that comes from never actually speaking with black people at length but musing about them among other white folk

hahaha this is the dumbest thing. literally all of my black friends have stories about getting hassled by the cops and they're rich kids from the burbs
edit: im picturing dwight from the office going up to a random black dude and just going "how about those cops, pretty good guys eh? i never had any trouble with them, same with you right haha"

All of my friends and I have been hassled by cops a few times and we are white middle class. I've been arrested before. I've been treated unfairly. So what bitch.

e. i didn't die because i never tried to fight a cop or take his gun

I've been pulled over a number of times simply for driving through towns at 1am as a teenager. The cops will find a bullshit reason to pull you over just to see if they can catch you doing something. It has nothing to do with race in every instance.

But if I was black I would of course cite race as the reason.

if you are black cops will shoot you either way, hth

yeah man i mean cops aren't even real people they are all just murderers waiting to kill anyone browner than thou

It's not okay to make sweeping generalizations about certain groups of people but other groups of people it is fine to do it for. This is the liberal agenda folks.

I am the black people doing nothing wrong except the crimes I'm being arrested for, resisting arrest, attacking police with their batons, punching police, biting police, and trying to take a deadly weapon from a policeman presumably to use it against the police. Please do not shoot me lest you be racist.

sounds like a crime worthy of 5 bullets to the chest in a public place, the judge has spoken

okay you strap a gun to your hip an in a struggle i'll start to take it from its holster and you just please wait to see what I use it for before you react.


whoa wait is this the homeless man on the street that is fighting police and taking their guns? this is a new weird angle that totally changed my opinion on the subject

A question for GBS

You are a group of police. You are struggling to cuff some crazy retard homeless person. He begins to remove a gun from another police officer's holster. What is your next move?

No, the gun is in the homeless man's hands. If you back away it will fully be his gun. This is your perception in this split second you have to react.

I get it man, 5 police officers are no physical match for an under-fed homeless person, shoot him dead, i get it man

So your fellow police officers deserve death because they are bad at wrestling? The alleged criminal assumes no responsibility for his actions?

Wow, hosed up and rude.

uh, so are the points you are trying to make in this thread about this incident only? I'm confused

Yes, in reference to what I was saying depending on what page you quote me from. Those are different conversations within the same thread. I know this is a crazy concept.

Like fer realz everyone here is a hypocritical liar if they think they would have waited to see what the homeless man would do with their gun when it was taken from them. This of course provided if that is indeed what was happening. We can't see for sure what was going on so it's one of two things:

he was getting the gun, which in case shoot him

the cops lied, which is bad

If you believe anything else then good luck in court some day

the problem is that it's easier to believe that the cops are lying

based on seeing at least 20 videos on youtube of bad conduct meanwhile billions of arrests and interactions with police occur BILLIONS OF TIMES ALL THE TIME

Yeah, not two cops though, just civilians. And I'm pretty sure it was just one veteran actually. And still they didn't use armed response to take him down.

Seriously if a dude that 5 of you are pinning down can actually get your gun and shoot you with it you shouldn't be a cop then, sorry.

wow it's almost like you weren't completely honest in your first post

yeah and you hear a taser going off in the video so either they tased the dude and then interpreted his flailing arm as reaching for a gun, or they missed with it from a foot away like they're bad video game AI, or they just killed that dude because gently caress him he's homeless.

either of those 3 situations means they are lovely cops imo

lol if you think there is some grand conspiracy of police to kill a man in broad daylight on video

If I hand a guy a gun, can I then kill him for being a potential threat to my life?

What if i dangle a gun menacingly towards someone and they take it from me, can I kill them for being a potential threat to my life?

What level of culpability do I have for actively putting myself in a life threatening situation and then deciding to use lethal force to get out of it?

yeah i mean if they were just fighting you and you are trying to arrest them

In the GBS future world police attempt arrest for 2 seconds then give up or they are professional wrestlers and subdue people in .5 seconds
