Why dont black people think they are ever responsible for their own behavior? Blacks kill blacks and whites at ridiculous rates but somehow the media only cares when scummy blacks are killed by the cops. At some point blacks will have to take responsibility for themselves.

And sometimes people are killed by cops kneeling on their necks.

Why do we have some really crappy police officers? (Not all of them).

Why don't you think ALL police officers need better training?

Perhaps it's time to really care about quality like what a pilot or doctor gets, not just some stupid police academy that could be a joke.

Ummm..... because they have the means and the legal authority to use lethal force against you?

You don't have to lick boots but don't be a dumbass and resist arrest either.

The time and place for fighting the police is in court.... not on the sidewalk or the side of the road.

Cops get paid pretty damn well in most places. Pension too.

Join up and change things.

It's an easy job. Right?

Because entitlement, and taking responsibility for ones actions isn’t popular.

When criminals, especially serial criminals, that don’t resist arrest, they’re likely going to have a bad day.

When did that happen?

What is with the race-baiting from the right lately. It's always been pretty bad, but scanning the boards today, this post seems to be fairly representative of a lot of you.

Why all the race-baiting, and racist rants?

"scummy blacks"? Really?

Didn’t say it did, however, it can happen, and does.

That poster could be a black Democrat or independent for all you know.
