If he is not convicted, the last few days are going to look like a day at Disneyland.
I think that is pretty much exactly the prosecutors' thinking. Absolutely CANNOT have an acquittal no matter what the charge.

Agreed, an acquittal will be open season on everyone. Cops don’t do well in prison and if this clown was smart, he’d off himself, ala Jeff Epstein. Save us all the trouble and worry about an acquittal. Three scariest words in world?

Trial by Jury.

Please dot let Media control your life.

This is prime example of what they do to fuel fear and hatred!

Shut down media. Earth would be peaceful!

To be fair, that was a fake video. Above the MSNBC logo, it shows the guy who made the video followed by "Not real"
That said, MSNBC and CNN have an extensive history of using photos that are staged and/or photos that were not from the actual story they publish.

Ok thanks for the info. You see I got victimized by SMS with wrong information too. You do not know which one is real.

Its so easy to brain wash peoples mind using social media. I bet you if Im an extreme terrorist and wanted to instigate terror through misguided religious / political belief against the non believers. It would be very easy to organize a small group of people Using SMS and cause damage.

Speaking of msm. They love to embelish everything also. I went for a bike ride yesyerday and a bunch of young white kids were protesting at a couple of our beach piers. They were walking back and forth from pier to pier. It was a peaceful protest and I had to ride through the group of them because they were walking right down the bike path. They were considerate enough to move out of the way.

When I got home later, I was watching the news and msm had a reporter down at one of the piers. All the protestors were gone by the time the msm got down there because the police declared "unlawful order" and forced them to leave.

The news reporter said "they had 3000 protestors down here today". Total bullcrap. If there were 200 I'd be surprised.

The all lie and spin their stories. You have to get information from various sources and do your own fact checking.

People like to assume. You know what that makes ...

It's very similar to people who respond with "All lives matter." There's not an implied "only" at the beginning of the phrase "Black lives matter," you dip; there's an implied "too" at the end of it

I know the other ones. They all are good people.
This brings up a good point actually. In a small town or more rural area, everyone knows everyone and the police are your neighbors, friends, acquaintances. It’s a lot harder to dehumanize and abuse folks you know even if you don’t like them, (assuming we aren’t talking about a straight up sociopath).

In large urban areas, without a strong concerted effort to walk the beat, get to know folks and engage in community policing, you tend to get a police force that looks like an occupying military with fobs in strategic locations and the cops running combat and recon mounted patrols. This builds fear and distrust between both the citizens and the police.

If the police feel like they aren’t part of the community they serve, and the people don’t feel like the police are there to help them, distrust, fear grow and leads to terrible outcomes.

Now, add in to the above, the catastrophic “war on drugs” which decimated communities of color disproportionately And really began the militarization of our police forces, the offshoring of decent semi skilled manual labor jobs in the 70s on up (Baltimore’s docks are a good example), the criminalization of poverty, and of course our country’s as yet unhealed original sin of slavery, aka racism

And you get police brutality, it’s almost guaranteed.

This isn’t going to get better until we as a country acknowledge both the good and the bad in our history. There was a post a while back on here that very succinctly listed all the bad regarding African Americans/slavery and institutional racism from our earliest days to present.

At its core racism makes one group view another as subhuman, we do this type of thing all the time bc in order to commit violence on another group of people, or disenfranchise them, they must be viewed as other and worse than us, this also keeps public opinion on your side. War is a perfect example, we don’t kill our equal people who we respect and view as fully human, we kill krauts, japs, gooks, hajis etc. it makes it less traumatic and easier to justify. It applies from the other side too, Americans are evil capitalists, the white devil etc.

Europeans didn’t view Africans as inferior until the expansion of slavery in the 1600s. Then you suddenly get “science”, pseudo science like phrenology falling all over themselves to justify slavery bc “they’re” not equal. These attitudes are still engrained in our society today. The heartbreaking thing is, it’s unbridled capitalism that leads to slavery, after all the lowest cost for labor is free labor. Capitalism without ethics, or morals (if you want a more religious word) always leads to evil outcomes. It hurts the victims but it also hurts society and the folks that economically benefit from it too. Violence begets violence, the pre civil war south was much more violent than the north, even white on white violence bc when your surrounded by pain suffering, cheapening of human life, that’s what tends to get reflected back.


I am a patriot, I love and have sacrificed for this country and ALL her people. I believe in the aspirational ideals of our constitution and bill of rights. But those things and the American dream, the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness must apply equally fairly and justly to All citizens. We’re not there yet.

So if he added Fox, that would have been enough for you? How about BBC? What about the Chinese or Russian media outlets? Does he have to mention every single media outlet in existence for the statement not to be questioned?

I heard from a grapevine starting next year we will be celebrating MLK day and GF day!

I have high respect for the belief and principles of MLK.....but

whats actually the true life story of GF? Who is he as a person to society?

I denounce the way he was treated and allegedly died at the hands of the unlawful police officers.

Im denouncing the act....period

But to idolize and emulate GF....God forgive us of our transgression and the manner how we adore evil!

Politicians even use GF to get popular votes of people to keep them in power.
This is sickening to my stomach!
