Black man dies after video shows officer kneeling on neck

~ If they ban one idiotic dummy they have to ban them all. That is the point. Balance.
Social media can be politically biased and censor as they wish - but if they do they will not be protected from liability. If they are fair and balanced they have no worries.

 

Google is your friend.

 

I’ve seen white and other ethnic looters on the tv clips. The problem is that they focus extra time on the black ones instead of showing all of them. It is just another instance of the way we are brainwashed by the media.

 

Even this forum doesn't ban all idotic dummies.

 

There is nothing anyone says that disparages trump is libelous or slanderous.

 

~ This is not about Trump - it is about all who use the social media platforms. Trump is just the one who calls attention to it. Just as example there are many political remarks that have censored content on YouTube. It is obviously one-sided.

 

So what? Adding their commentary makes them a publisher, not a platform.

 

Fill the water cannons with a capstun mixture.

 

They are wide open now to being sued.

 

If I was on the jury I would laugh the plantiff out of the courtroom.

 

As a followup on the killer thug cop, his wife is kicking his butt to the curb =

Wife of George Floyd's Killer Files for Divorce
"Kellie Chauvin,
Through her attorney wife of former Officer Derek Chauvin the former Minneapolis Police Officer charged with murdering #GeorgeFloyd released a statement saying she is devastated by Floyd’s death, sends condolences to his family and is divorcing her husband."

Actions have consequences.

Like a tv movie, wouldn't it be something if it comes to light that George and Kellie knew each other? After all, Derek and George were co-workers. This could turn into a real soap opera. It would explain why Derek murdered George, a former co-worker.

 

I have never seen an event where Antifa showed up that wasn't in response to white supremacists / fascists showing up. These were Trump supporters and white supremacists inciting riots and causing damage.

 

Not surprising.

 

So what?. They are free minds free to comment on the words they freely choose. Your opposition is against free speech. Each individual has a right to free speech, even speech you disagree with. That's liberty.

 

You stick with hateful revenge and the mob, I'll stick with reason and the rule of law. And if the Antifa and the Progressives want armed revolution, go for it--they will at least teach the Right the foolishness of believing that owning a gun is enough to create a successful revolution; it takes the right ideas, not brute force. All brute force will create is a tyrant and mass slaughter.

Ayn Rand. "Tyranny is any political system (whether absolute monarchy or fascism or communism) that does not recognize individual rights (which necessarily include property rights). The overthrow of a political system by force is justified only when it is directed against tyranny: it is an act of self-defense against those who rule by force. For example, the American Revolution. The resort to force, not in defense, but in violation, of individual rights, can have no moral justification; it is not a revolution, but gang warfare."--http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/revolution_vs_putsch.html

 

there were reported deaths all across the country from the protests, do you support police using lethal means as lawful government force?

taxpayers can't afford these thugs free passes anymore with 'capstun mixtures' and 'police dogs'

 

The choice is the mob or rule of law.

And when was the last time "FK You!" became an intellectual battle cry? The Founding Fathers shouted "Give me liberty or give me death. ", and wrote:

"When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

A very easy choice. Declare Martial Law and do what is morally necessary to end the mob violence or surrender "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" to anarchy.

 

If mob violence is a national movement, they will quickly learn that it takes more than vulgarity, violence, and vitriol to make a revolution. But it will be a good reminder for the Nationalist Right and their blind faith in the Second Amendment.

Its ideas that matter, not blind rage, the mind not the fist.

 

Completely uncalled for:

 

Yeah, not exactly the most neutral titles!

 

Because they WEREN'T guilty of anything.

 

But he freaked out because they tried to put him in the car. You don't know if this was excessive pressure for that time, he could hae just been restraining him and then applying it periodically.

 

I'm sure Jack-the-Rippers defense would be:"surgeons use scalpels. What's the big deal?". Putin and Xi Jinping make citizens disappear, America puts them on trial and demands they be judge by 12 good and true souls according to objective laws, not political hacks' and brutes ' whims.

 

Is this the rallying cry of the protestors:
“Smash stores! Burn buildings! Beat Bloody!”

 

The difference between the Hong Kong idealists and America’s mob protesters? Liberty—the idealists are fighting for it, the mob fights to obliterate it.
