No. I will continue to read his posts and reply when I have something to add.

But on the other hand, I will also continue to read your posts and reply when I have something to add.

I find his posts to be extreme and idiotic.

I note your failure to point out anything untrue in his posts.

his nonsense.

Again, I note your failure to point out anything untrue in his posts.

Black Lives Matters is making a valid point.

BLM's point is that it is wrong for police to justifiably defend themselves when black people murder them.

maxdancona wrote:

although these policies should help all people, that they will specifically focus where the problems are, and this means focused aid for minority communities.

A bit off topic, but just out of curiosity, how does aid that is focused on specific communities help all people?

He has the same problem with facts and opinion that Oralloy has, in both cases ‘facts’ are what supports their own racist ideology, not what actually happened.

You cannot point out anything untrue in my posts.

You cannot point out anything racist in my posts.

I doubt you can point out anything racist or untrue in Max's posts either.

Instead of dealing with his cavalier use of the word facts, Max wants to deal with hypotheticals. What if this, what if that? Etc.etc. It never ends. Stick to the facts, the actual facts not ones that have been spun to ****.

Dealing with hypotheticals is something that intelligent people do when they are exploring an issue.

@oralloy,

You are an absurdity, a walking lampoon of a buffoon.

Your childish name-calling is a poor substitute for an intelligent argument.

Exactly! Who shoots a person in the back??

Duh. Someone who is behind the perp.

That was a dumb question.

If he was fleeing at the time, it wouldn't matter if he was carrying 10 knives, 8 guns, 6 baseball bats and an anvil. He was FLEEing. No need to shoot the dude IN THE BACK.

How else are you going to stop them?

You should stop and think things through before you open your mouth.

All I know is, if he were not FLEEING, he wouldn't have been shot in the back. Anyone who is FLEEING is not a danger to the people he is FLEEING from, so no need for gunfire.

Again, how else are you going to stop him?

Mame wrote:

And why don't they just shoot people in the legs? Why KILL?

Because that's an impossible shot to pull off and will just end up hitting an innocent bystander.

No, You don't know this. You are making it up. You have an ideological narrative that you want to be true. You are inventing any facts necessary to fit the narrative.

What else would you expect from Mame?

the gentleman with the knee on his throat, that end in his death, was not resisting

Yes he was. He refused to let them put him in the back of the police car.

BillRM wrote:

nor the cases where the police officers used a gun and not a taser by error was not call for.

I don't think you quite understand what an error is.

BillRM wrote:

Chasing very young black males playing with toy guns and then killing them is not OK either

Yes it is. They have no way of knowing that the gun isn't real.

BillRM wrote:

noting that such deadly force is not normally used again white children.

Yes it is.
