National Protest and 'disband the cops' discussion (and now ICE)

Even if the cop is found innocent of criminal charges, there will be a civil lawsuit the magnitude of which will be of epic proportions.
Yep. Minneapolis has been forking out some huge settlements lately and when we get to this one, they'll pale in comparison. They also need to worry about the fact that over 150 officers have filed for disability the past few weeks, citing PTSD. Combined with Covid and everything else, the city is about to take a huge financial kick in the ball sack.

Us Christians would say, Gal. 6: 7-9 (KJV) 7: Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

Or, karma's a bitch.....

Problem is the useful idiots, who fed these flames, are gonna try and push the cost onto productive citizens. Only people getting shafted are local businesses and Joe/Jill, unless they band together and clean out MN's Marxist skewed political system they're boned.

Every SJW ever...

I don't know about y'all, but I've moved on from open disgust to humorous cynicism. :ROFLMAO:

Why is "all lives matter", especially from a civil servant, so hurtful or anti-black? I mean, all lives, would encompass black, no?
 
Because “all lives” cannot matter until “black lives” matter.

At least that is what my enlightened nephew tells me.
Yeah, we probably lost a couple of friends because their daughter went all SJW on FB.
Her contribution: I call people out.
My response, whoop de do, FB posts don't mean shit. Sponsor a disadvantaged youth at your work.
Unfriended, and blocked.
Oh well, derka derka.

If you want an honest answer, it's because #ALM is not philosophically grounded. It is, in essence, a reactionary movement only in response to BLM. This makes it seem not genuine. In other words, there is nothing grounding All Lives Matter if Black Lives Matter were to disappear tomorrow. If BLM is gone, ALM would disappear. Weird! (This isn't necessarily true, but is my intuition).

Notice here how this is very different from the capitalism vs socialism fight. Neither is necessarily reactionary. That is, both have solid philosophical grounds on which to stand. Both can be advocated for without necessarily invoking the other.

Imagine if there as an organization that is calling for the proper care of treatment for Army Rangers after a combat injury--Ranger Lives Matter. Then some Air Force guy takes offense to this and says well "All Military Matter"!!!!!!! Of course, Rangers aren't saying only Rangers matter, that would be dumb and a straw-man. We are just calling for the proper treatment of Rangers after combat injuries. That doesn't mean other people shouldn't start organizations to help drone operators with their PTSD. It would, however, be weird to adopt the slogan Drone Operator Lives Matter but only after Ranger Lives Matter exists. On my intuition this seemingly reactionary slogan makes it seem less genuine and in good faith.

I'm not here to play team red or blue. I don't care. I'm just trying to explain how #ALM as a slogan has bad optics for a civil servant without invoking "you can't care about all lives until you care about black lives". Hopefully, I have done that here.
 
WTF, over.


At some point, people of means will sue against the civil liability immunity protections that prosecutors have. Will they be the couple? I think there will be a reckoning, and I can't wait for all of these SJW DAs to get a shit sandwich to eat.
I read the article and no where does it state on what basis the search warrant was issued or why the guns were confiscated. That's a pretty important fact to omit.

I'm just over here eating my popcorn as BLM and others around that movement share their openly anti-semitic views. Here's a great one, how do they treat Sephardic Jews from North Africa?
