  1. For the record, I'm not anti-cop. When there is a problem needing police involvement, I call them and let them handle it. I AM anti-racism and anti-police brutality. The 2 rookies were caught up in a lose-lose situation. I'm not sure if they would have made a difference. But I'd like to think that they could. If my boss is showing me what to do and I don't feel safe, I find a different way to complete the task. But then again some people will blindly follow anyone in a position of authority. One story that comes to mind... an 18 year old is working at Walmart. The store manager asks him to go into the trash compactor to clear out the jam. As he was in there, the manager turned on the machine. It scared the crap out of him. But the manager says "oh its ok." Later that day an assistant manager overheard him telling the story... The manager was fired and the 18 year old choose to never returned to work at Walmart.
  2. This could get even more interesting... [Hidden Content], [Hidden Content]
  3. [Hidden Content] From the article Gray stated in court that Lane told Chauvin to turn Floyd over twice, but that the senior officer refused. "It would be unreasonable for [Lane] to go up and drag Chauvin off the deceased...You've got a 20-year cop in the front and my guy's back there with four days and he says, 'Should we roll him over?' and [Chauvin] says, 'No, we'll wait for the ambulance' twice. ... I don't know what you're supposed to do as a cop," Gray said.
  4. I'll keep buying Jordans too
  5. One of the old guys at work has a phone book from the 60s. Youngsters think it's funny to look up there grandparents.
  6. My heart and prayers go out to this man's family. Blood and blue. Senseless violence has never solved anything.
  7. All the footage is lined up to show exactly what happend. No excuses
  8. Matthew 5:39
  9. [Hidden Content] This is a great site with links to almost every possible information available. Models show a low cat 1 in 4 days, somewhere between Galveston and New Orleans.
  10. [Hidden Content] From the article There’s been a significant public backlash against these findings, which seem to blame Floyd, at least in part, for his own death. As a matter of law, however, Chauvin is no less culpable even if Floyd did have an underlying health condition that contributed to his death. Prosecutors will still need to show that Chauvin’s actions caused Floyd’s death. If it turns out that Floyd was, coincidentally, having a fatal heart attack at the very moment that Chauvin placed his knee on Floyd’s neck, then Chauvin might have a valid defense to the charges of murder and manslaughter. But a victim simply having a medical condition or using recreational drugs or alcohol would not absolve a defendant.
  11. They claim that is to prevent CO2 poisoning. In other words, smelling your own breath.
  12. Yes I have participated in the past. Just thought maybe there was a reason for turning weather into politics. Oh wait, I remember now, it's called climate change.
  13. This is political?
  14. A mask alone is not enough to protect you if you come in contact with someone who is positive. It's my belief that it has somewhat slowed the spread. Now we are talking about the difference between turtle and and a snails pace. Keep wearing them if you are at high risk. What does it hurt? Wearing a condom isn't 100% safe either, but some people still use them.
  15. Finished watching it last night. Jordan is the GOAT.
  16. "Street justice" he said. [Hidden Content]
  17. For your case, it makes sense. How far does it have to go before the above mentioned happens?
  18. This is what needs to happen. It's great to see good people doing what's right. [Hidden Content]
  19. [Hidden Content] Police survival 101
  20. Small percentages can be deadly to certain segments of the general public. Remember the coronavirus? But seriously, Mr. @Law Man, when you were investigated. Was there a psychological assessment? Or any form of retaining?
  21. [Hidden Content] 17 complaints against him over nearly 20 years of his service, all but one of which ended without disciplinary action. @tvc184 @Law Man Is this a typical number of complaints? What would be considered excessive?
  22. Really? Cop kills man for racist rants and you feel it was justified. Did you know he was from the whitest town in texas? Your beloved BC. If that's the best thing you learned from your higher education at LU. Congratulations, u mite b more smarter then ne1 thot.
  23. I only see 1 man refusing to change the course of his actions. Thus resulting in the death of another. If the cop was black and the deceased was white (like your earlier example of Whitehead and arnold) I'd be just as mad at the police brutality and not valuing human life.
  24. Former Iranian president quotes... Tupac? [Hidden Content] From the article "The scheme of the world powers is to cause disunity in order to keep all societies under control," Ahmadinejad tweeted on Friday. "The killing of #GeorgeFloyd was deeply disturbing & upsetting & is the result of the current world order which we all must unite against. 'Pull the trigger kill a N---- he's a hero.'"
  25. I agree that the protest should remain peaceful. Violence is never the answer. [Hidden Content] From the article Minnesota gov. hints that white supremacists, drug cartels could be part of widespread chaos
