The sooner the better. Let liberals patrol the streets, since they think it's so easy to do.

Given that's something that happens, we know that in fact we'd be saying nothing at all about it because no one cares when that happens.

If a white person attacks cops and is killed, it might make local news for a night, but that's about it.

There's a reason why people are up in arms about an armed black man who attacked cops and got shot for it and no one cares about the completely unarmed white man who was shot in the back twice by 2 black cops in Chicago....and why there's charges against the Atlanta cops already and no charges against the 2 Chicago cops despite the fact they shot the man in February.

Only certain lives matter, and they only matter when they can be used to push political narratives and raise funds for Democrats.

Things are not always what they appear to be and can get out of control and violent quickly.
If shoplifters get violent shouldn't store security just let them go and track them?

So if we, as citizens, shoot and kill the liberals (acting as a police force) is that going to be supported and okay? They will essentially be the police and it should, by liberal standards, be open season on them.

It's not about their skin color.

It's about their (ghetto) culture which reveres crime and criminals.

I doubt any one has problems with law abiding, average Joe black guys/people. I sure don't, I had an awesome black (career military) family as a down the street neighbor in a pretty much all white neighborhood, they kicked ass. We were all sorry when they left.

My youngest kid dated for almost 3 yr a lovely, respectful, hardworking black kid; I was sad when they broke up. He came from a single parent, section 8 home yet by age 22 had bought a house (no help from anyone) in a very nice section and had been with the railroad since age 18.

Just two anecdotal examples from my own life. I could cite many more.

It's about respectability for me, not "skin color". Jeez who CARES what race someone is, if they're living an ordinary law abiding life?!

I don't think we can say the shooting was justified. That has to be investigated per normal procedure. But i think its safe to say the Mayor's and DA response was not justified, its absolutely ridiculous political move to bow to the violent mob. Somehow these Democratic officials have to make it the fault of Conservatives and Racism. It's how they stay in power and keep the support of an incredibly ignorant voting group who keeps voting the same idiots into power year after year.

the reason is white people only bring up white victims of police in response to black people. If "All Lives Matter" then white people should be raising hell about one of there own being unjustly gunned down by police. Instead, yall sit there and let it happen, because you're okay with it happening to black people too.

Black people go out and march and protest this stuff. Yall have this idea that the media says "hey, we're going to be at the corner of ____ & ____....black people come here and protest". It's the other way around. People protest, the media shows up. Just like when white people protested the lockdowns, the media showed up.

Per the liberals, yes.


I'm actually all for disbanding police departments IF two things occur:


1. Each police officer is given full retirement equal to having worked 30 years on the job because they deserve it, and


2. Private citizens are given immunity from arrest and prosecution when we protect ourselves and our communities (translated: they'll be a lot less criminals, savages and thugs running our streets ).

It doesn't get media coverage. How many times must that be stated?

White people were outraged when George Floyd was murdered but you're conveniently ignoring that.
