Now, I know that lots of people really look down on those "elites" with book-learning, but still this seems a bit extreme, even for them.
He had a gun....

I don't see how that would be a bad thing. Let them self-segregate like they already have accomplished with their college campus "safe spaces" and racially segregated dorms.

By choosing to self-segregate, they're their own problem, not everyone else's.

Looking down the road as police become more infamous, the price must go up or the quality must go down.

Wrong.

Attempting to "negotiate", argue, fight, or otherwise interfere with an officer once they have begun the process of their investigation is never going to end well for you no matter what color you are.
Stick to the subject.

Quote:
Police want nothing more than to do their jobs and go home safe to their families at the end of the day.

There is a fine line between "stating your case" to an officer and resisting arrest and many suspects walk right up to that line and practically dare the cops to use force.....and then act all surprised when they do.
And the taxpayers get stuck paying a huge settlement.

I guess that would be the conclusion drawn by the simple-minded.

No you don't. Very few cites in the US require it, not even Chicago does anymore.

Why do they allow that to happen?

They refuse to take control and do something about it...bring in containment trucks and arrest their butts....

By allowing this only sends out a negative message, that they are allowed to do this....This is primitive animal behavior. I'm sorry...but it is...it is 2016 and this country still allows these thugs to riot? Why?
They are breaking Laws for God's sake?
I agree 100%, plus it's 2016 and we still have blacks being profiled.
