I unno if it's racism but it is very shallow thinking, and I imagine that given how young the average community member is and how ignorant kids can be I just think there is a lack of context under consideration when people post some of that garbage. Either that or the average Imgurian is a closeted racist/sexist douche.

Reading his plea deal (http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/david-wildstein-plea-agreement-documents) I don't see a requirement he testify against others - is that usually included in the deal itself? edit: well, maybe he is anyway: quote:Wildstein's lawyer, Alan Zegas, said outside the courtroom today that “evidence exists” that Christie “knew of the lane closures as they occurred." “There is a lot more that will come out,” he said. “Unfortunately, I am not in a position to talk about the matter in detail.”

Do conservatives just imagine Al Sharpton is some kind of violent instigator, or do they actually read/hear things he says and interpret that as a call to arms? He's always brought up as the worst racebaiter for saying that we should look into the deaths of black people who are killed for questionable reasons, while also saying we should avoid violent protests. Fun fact: I told my conservative mother that she brings up Al Sharpton like he's some kind of boogeyman, and her response was "He IS a boogeyman!"

Regular maintenance of vehicles, staffing, training and all of those are in retardedly rough conditions in many places.

I honestly doubt that's going to happen, since Kennedy thinks that it's a federalism issue to punish states for not setting up their own exchanges. Aside from gay rights opinions there is nothing more that Kennedy likes writing more than "FEDERALISMMM" (the DOMA decision was also a federalist decision)

Yeah, proper standards and practices need to be in place to go with the hardware or it's useless. They should be on pretty much any time the officer is on duty and interacting with the public and the officers shouldn't have any ability to edit or delete stuff after the fact. Then you need to find a way to make the videos reasonably accessible without violating the privacy or dignity of innocent bystanders or victims, maybe via a review board comprised of different community leaders. If you can get all that in place you'll have hard documentation of most police/citizen interactions which would go a hell of a long way towards establishing what really happened in a case like Furguson. I can't find the article (someone help me out here) but some city established a pretty good camera program and saw complaints against the police drop by around 80%.

That complaint picture meme whatever is Richmond, CA. It's important to remember that the complaints do not drop just because all murdering cops stopped raping, but that cops pointing out that they have a camera also drops a lot of baseless allegations away.

Sharpton has enough skeletons in his closet that he's a really easy target for conservatives to use to dismiss any protest or complaint. They can ignore the hundreds or thousands of people and focus on the one guy who everyone will accept as sleazy and say he's really just riling everyone up so no need to listen to them. My mother hates Sharpton but she consistently comments to me how she takes his side against the silly way the conservative media paints him as this all powerful demigod who controls the actions of all black people in America.
