ORIGINAL: Musicmystery ~FR~ This either/or what-you're-saying baloney is so pointless. First, it's automatically a straw man, because there isn't anyone so polarized and simplistic as the resulting caricature. Second, because it's not actually addressing any actually held positions, it's literally pointless -- it's not refuting anything except mental projections. And Third, pointing out an injustice does not mean something therefore is against everyone of similar circumstances. That's just made up silliness. Realistically -- No one here supports killing cops. Deal with it. No one here supports calling for dead cops. Deal with it. No one here thinks all cops are evil. In fact, most are great. (fyiw, I have friends and friends of friends who are state troopers) Everyone here is against cop killing. Everyone gets they have a tough, dangerous job already. What people ARE against is the incidences of police brutality, especially those ending in death. Those incidences exist. They shouldn't. And even cops oppose that--imagine. What's in question is whether justice was served in the recent cases. Was it? Personally, I don't know--I wasn't there...though it is clear the prosecution made a mess of the case. Deliberately? That's a strong accusation I'm not prepared to stand on. It is a curious fuck up, however, and I understand the suspicions (and I'm not usually on the conspiracy side) even if I'm not prepared to try to make a case for them. Is racism in play in these cases? I don't know that either. At the same time, to deny that racism is very much alive in this country is just to willfully deny reality. Bests comment of the thread Of course it is...because it supports your views...skewed to the left. hmmmm read my previous posts, Ive said pretty much the same thing in another post or three, and this part, is the TRUTH, not slanted just FACTS quote:
