superpunk, GTFO. There are people out there will real gripes against the police.

Noone cares that they took your dime bag of weed away.

the struggle is real

 

[CobraKai]

I have never had a run-in with the police, and I've lived all over this country.

Seems that if you keep poking a tiger with a stick, he's eventually going to swat you with his paw.

i've never been raped it must not happen

Same here but I've had lots of run-ins with cops. Wait, run-ins as in trouble? Or just encounters?

I've had many encounters, all of which stayed peaceful.

The thing is, Cops in these areas have to make sure that the Person is unarmed. Usually cops Will put people in handcuffs just to search them for weapons for their Own safety. Doesn't always mean being caRted off to the pokey.

I know that's what they do, but that's the whole issue. They just stop people for being black in public... maybe they have a mean mug on facebook or something or are walking funny.... police are supposed to have probable cause to arrest or detain. You can't just say, hey that person looks out of place, let's arrest him and see if he's doing something.

Problem is we can never truly know if the "probable cause" was actually backdoor justification, or if there was real probable cause.

Maybe they recognized felon Brown from his mugshots? A little harassment is good for blacks. They harass all of my senses.

Perfect analogy.

If you're a moron.

 

[CobraKai]

that was your exact argument

 

[Irving Cowboy]

that was your exact argument

No, that was far from it.

 

[CobraKai]

agree to disagree

 

[Doomsday]

agree to disagree

The grey fallacy, agree to disagree. Basically when someone with an incredibly stupid opinion or clearly incorrect argument tries to appeal to some middle ground or generate support/validity for his/her nonsense under the idiotic assumption that every opinion or point of view is inherently worthwhile.

agree to disagree

Not uh. You aren't getting off that easy.

 

[CobraKai]

ok i have been raped but she was cute so whatever

 

[marionbarberthe4th]

Old white irv never faced any harassment guys . Racisms Over

 

[marionbarberthe4th]

Were the open carry tea-baggers shot at?

 

[bbgun]

Were the open carry tea-baggers shot at?

nope. they obey the law.

 

[CobraKai]

obv walking down the street and being black is less threatening than assault weapons in a toys r us.

 

[CobraKai]

or is there some other difference between these two pairs of young men that i'm not seeing

How about when a police officer tells you to put your hands behind your back and get on the ground. You listen. Not fight him as he's trying to handcuff you

If they did that, they couldn't "fight the power" and stuff.
