2016 U.S. Presidential Elections: The Circus Is In Full Swing

[Kobrag]

You've shown your ignorance over and over again.

I notice you don't have a problem with complaints made from ignorance and lacking a reputable source.

1. Correct my ignorance then, you irritating person. :/ Give me some ****ing context to work with.
2.The ACLU is one of the largest, most reptutable and well maintained legal institutions in American history. Please correct me if I am wrong. :3
.
Edited for calmness.

 

[Lord Brutus]

Go back and read my previous posts in this very thread, you ignorant person. ACLU is a highly respected institution.

>looks at 550 page thread.

Just give me a tl:dr. ಠ_ಠ

Edit: On cursory inspection... yeah, nothing of worth, substance or foundation to call me 'ignorant'. Thanks for getting me selfconcious for no ****ing reason. >:[

In the 1960s, all over the Southern US was a land of misadventure if you were black. Since then the urban areas have become invested in changing that image and also the reality. Charlotte is the 16th largest city in the country, by population. For over 20 years it has had a black police chief. The county containing Charlotte has a black sheriff. Recently we elected a black mayor. Protests about anything have become very rare.
If you want to find remnants of the 60s, you must go to places like Hickory, NC where history has become frozen in time and where Trump's supporters reign. What else you want?

Kobrag half-obliviously owning people is the funniest ****.

 

[Lord Brutus]

So far all he has owned is the championship of ignorance. Hopefully he can do better.

And how does that counter my point? That the police in genral are mistreating black communities. And are met with chants of the line of a particular song. "Those that work forces are often those that burn crosses."
You fall into the comon trope where people point to current state of progress and say we donlt need any more change. Or use local experiences to colour their view of a larger sample size, the embodiment of the 'frog in the well' proverb.
I can imagine that rural communities can't connect with a poc's fear of the police, as many rural communities elect and live alongside their law enforcement. An anology to give would be to compare the lawenforcement of larger cities and communites to the ATF.
A larger body of enforcement with guns, with no elected representitive that acts heavy handledly, leaving victims of any mishandling without the ability to contest or recieve compensation for their mistreatment.

I am saying, it;s not an uncommon belief that police forces overtarget poc's and their communities. There have been riots near every decade since the passing of the civil rghts act!

Brutus, no offence but you haven't said anything of substance in the last 5 pages.

These Russian agents are more sophisticated than you'd think... Even the Washington Post is fooled.

I am happy to amuse, I accept payments in $30 increments of booze.

link if you missed it Brute.

 

[Lord Brutus]

I didn't miss it but it's written as if you lived high in the Alps looking at Charlotte with a telescope. But ignore my words all you wish, you're posting with a voice straight out of the 60s.

...Police used black people who were foraging for food after Katrina for shooting practice you blinkered horse!! And they got away with reduced charges...

I am now just gonna assume you are acting in bad faith.*

****ING HELL.

*GLUG*

Spoiler: EASY AND DIGESTABLE PROOF! DAMN YOU

EDIT2: *As you keep missing my dog gamned points.

I assume you're speaking about Louisiana and you have witnesses for the shooting practice. Funny what crap makes the news where you live. where do you live,by the way?
Did you read that on Twitter?

There was a documented court case.

Christ you are dispicable.

 

[Lord Brutus]

I specifically mentioned Louisiana as not PoC friendly. Christ, you are ignorant. What part of Europe breeds this much ignorance?

 

[Anarion]

Come to think of it, I have never personally witnessed an American police officer killing an unarmed civilian.

 

[Lord Brutus]

I found this from the NY Times about the resolution of the Louisiana case. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/21/us/hurricane-katrina-new-orleans-danziger-bridge-shootings.html
Doesn't affect my opinion of either Charlotte or Louisiana.

Now, where are you located?

 

[Flin Flon]

Probably right to say that police isn't incentivised to act more restrained or professional but also probably shouldn't say **** like police are using civilians as target practice, @Kobrag.

 

[Lord Brutus]

Where exactly is "Cthulhu's bedroom?"

Calling in an active shooting when meeting a family crossing a bridge, before excecuting almost every single one of them? I guess I was too lenient

Where exactly is "Cthulhu's bedroom?"

I was talking about the perception of police forces in the US in GENERAL, as I have repeatedly said. =/
