If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

Last I checked,  the protocol for arresting an unarmed person does not include shooting them.
Both uno and kiid believe if the cops have any reason to interact with you they get to kill you. At least if you are black.

Fuck you!

State what you believe and leave it to others to affirm their own opinions, you deformed blood-stained issue from a diseased cunt.

So release the footage.


Sure, I will get right on it so you can give it your slant.  I am sure "didnt have to kill him" will be part of it.

Q:  If the fifth shot hits his arm (like the other 4, reportedly) and they stop shooting, what happens next?

Fuck the speculation!

Let’s the footage.


It's real life, not a fucking movie, dope.

America's Mayor!

No, he's not. And he never was. He's always been for, about, and only about and for Rudy. Ask his wives.

I was working out the progression of white GOP responses, when an unarmed black person is gunned down by cops.

1.  Let's not speculate until we've seen the footage.

(footage released)

2.  This needs context,  don't take this at face value.

(context provided)

3.  There are clearly more relevant facts here,  we need to wait.

(more relevant facts emerge)

4.  Well,  you have to understand this dude was bad,  and thus responsible for his own death!

(reminder of the assigned role of police,  which doesn't include moral judge or executioner)

5.  Well...I know this seems really hypothetical and his priors were all nonviolent and he was fleeing in terror or struggling to breathe....but he was CLEARLY A BIG THREAT!

Note: It is a lot easier to go up 35% when you went down 31.4% the preceding quarter.

https://www.bea.gov/news/2021/gross-domestic-product-first-quarter-2021-advance-estimate

If we use the last quarter of 2019 as a baseline of 100, then GDP looked like this from start of 2020 to end of 1st quarter 2021:
Last Q, 2019 - 100
1st Q, 2020 - 95 (5% annualized decrease from the month before)
2nd Q, 2020 - 65.17 (31.5% decrease)
3rd Q, 2020 - 86.94 (33.4% increase)
4th Q, 2020 - 90.68 (4.3% increase)
1st Q, 2021 -  96.48 (advance estimate of 6.4% increase)

Not all the way back, let alone to where ongoing growth might have taken us, but progress is made and at a faster rate than it had been.

We can hope it keeps getting better.

Someone has been affirming their opinions for months if not years. Someone does not seem to like being called out on it very much. He could just leave it alone or he could go seek professional mental help.
