The US policing crisis thread

[screenexile]

Surprised there has been no mention of the documentary last night it has been talked about all morning here . . .

NYPD - The Biggest Gang in New York!

[Walter Cronc]

Watched this on BBC iplayer last week!

Those watch towers in the Bronx are crazy

[stew]

whats the thoughts on Michael Brown's mother speaking on prime time at the DNC? Surely a bit contentious given the tensions in the country right now between BLM and the police? More hatred being stirred up?

Yes, blacks should shut up until there is a more convenient time.

that wasn't my point Muppet.... come on now. It's the Democratic convention. Brown's shooting cased national riots - I think it's tasteless political maneuvering and a dangerous move given the state f things currently..

You think everyone should pretend it is not happening?

Maybe move the few bad cops to a new Precinct?

This never, ever works. It increases the frustration and the feeling of injustice, further and further, until it goes boom. And then you will blame Deomcrats for not saying anything.

Could the democrats not get the relative of someone who didn't punch a cop, try to get his gun, pull the trigger, and then rush the cop before he was shot!!!!!

and who the justice department cleared!!!

Surely there is a better case to represent the issue. With his mother speaking at the convention, does this not give the opposition the opportunity to say that the democrats condone violence against cops!!!

Stupid move and a potential vote getter for Trump

They HAVE invited other relatives. Brown's mother is only one of the speakers.

But, you have a valid point, although I don't think it will make any difference in terms of votes. Depends on what she has to say, I guess.

It is safe to say that her words will be a lot more closely vetted by the campaign than Melania Trump's were, though!

I loved the speeches from the wives of the fallen police officers slaughtered by black lives matter supporters, wait, they were not represented as they were not invited, the democrats are such pandering svumbags it makes me sick.

Brown was a gangster, a blight on society but strap on invites his mother to speak as if her son is a victim, unfuckingbelievable.

You obviously missed the tribute to "Fallen Officers", including a Dallas sheriff and widows speaking, on the final night.

Come on now you're not going to get stews attention by having reasoned debate.

You need to throw a few "scumbags" "pieces of shit" "bitch" words in there to catch his eye!

You want reason, here it is!

The police officers families were only invited AFTER the DNC shit show were an afterthought, the president has invited the families of hoods and drug dealers to the White house for a sit down, how many family's of slain cops has he invited?

To trot out the mothers of dead hoods was despicable,the whole congress was God awful, a joke, Sanders supporters booing the future president and walking out of the convention, the scandal of the fix to get clinton the nomination got the top woman to resign, flag burning liberals outside the convention chanting once again about wanting dead cops.

As bad as the republican convention was, the democrat one was worse, comedic gold.

Cop arrested over providing support to ISIS.

Fair play to the FBI for catching him before anyone got hurt.

Appalling that 2 people dedicated to helping others are brutally murdered. Trust you to bring race into it. Go on, make an excuse that he was from a broken home etc if it makes you feel better..


No point? I don't think so. You wouldn't be long squealing if the nuns had murdered this outstanding citizen.

See Colin  kapernick is refusing to stand for national anthem before football games as a protest for perceived police brutality and unfair treatment of black people , he's very close to being cut by 49ers for bad performances and has a big salary wonder will he blame raciism when's hes dumped,

I think he's dead right. And it seems like a brave move at a time when his career is falling apart. It'll be thrown in his face constantly that he's getting $20m a year for being useless but he's right to  do what he believes in.

[gallsman]

That tired old excuse "wealthy person can't be principled or comment on perceived ills in society".

I saw a brilliant put down on Twitter over this. A republican congressional candidate was laying into Lap over it and got retweeted with "rich man complains about America" is effectively the Republican party platform.

Of course it's appalling but why put it in this thread when it has no relevance other then your "agenda"!
