    You always fantasize a contrary story to the facts and evidence of race hate incidents involving whites causing harm to blacks.

    You must not know anyone that works in the F&B industry......"who's gonna get the table of Canadians in booth 21.......not me". Black folks, White folks, and Yellow folks can all mouth off to LEOs.......just expect consequences. I prefer to use the 'yes sir, no sir" approach.......it's worked pretty well for over a half century. I like both fried chicken and watermelon.....how 'bout you?

    Then you have no business being a police officer.

    If folks acted right there would be no need for the police, but since they don't we have police who are charged with keeping law and order not breaking it.

    Of course you do, if a doctor has you opened up and loses his cool, what happens to you? Dirt knap. If you don't have the temperament for the job find a different line of work.

    Well maybe the Justice System will bring you some justice posthumous, because you are going to be dead if he is choking you. Just as Eric Garner.

    Know it very well, there are plenty of white folks who don't tip does that mean all white folks don't tip? No. I have noticed one thing about you and that is you work to always put black folks as a whole in a negative light.

    That's just it, the consequences are different.

    I do also, but I have had a time or two where it didn't work.

    Oh I am pretty sure you do, but the stereotype from folks like you is that ALL black folks do.

    If you have worked in the F&B industry but refuse to admit that it is a well-known fact within that industry that black folks are notoriously bad tippers then you are simply not being honest with us or yourself. This is particularly true when the server is White. They run them ragged......then after eating the entire meal ask to see the manager......complain about the server and the food. The manager usually comps the meal in fear of being called a 'racist' and having the establishment boycotted with the attendant news coverage.......oh, and no tip for the server who's just trying to make rent. I've witnessed this scenario many times......it's usually a group of fat, unhappy black women.

    Just because in an unrelated instance your relative got arrested there, will not excuse the officer chocking him.

    Maybe he did. Maybe he did not.
    Still makes zero sense at all that a cop chocking him when he complies.

    Like I said before, I don't care. Test them...test the cops, see what it gets you. It's not going to affect my life in the least....well, except for the sore stomach muscles from laughing at the stupidity.

    I also have to say that it's probably not the most productive of ideas for parent(s) to teach their children to challenge or maintain an adversarial relationship with people who, again, carry guns for a living, and are given the authority to use them if they can successfully argue they 'felt reasonably confident' (totally arbitrary threshold) their lives were in danger.

    Also, law enforcement is, by definition, attracted to areas of lawlessness. which isn't law enforcement's fault....they go where the crime is. so, if a community doesn't like cops, stop perpetrating crimes....if a community doesn't like crime, help the cops round up the criminals, don't adopt and teach the "snitches get stitches" credo.

    According to the left, when a person of one color chokes a person of another color it's a racist crime. How about when a black basketball player chokes a person and attacks his white coach, is that racist and a crime? It absolutely is according to the rules you guys are laying out in this thread. And Thelma, what would call a black world class athlete attacking a white man who is much smaller and older?

    On December 4, 1997, the National Basketball Association (NBA) suspends Latrell Sprewell, three-time All Star point guard for the Golden State Warriors, for one year after he attacked Warriors’ coach P.J. Carlesimo. During practice on December 1, Sprewell had a verbal confrontation with Carlesimo when the coach told him to “put a little mustard” on a pass. When Carlesimo approached him, Sprewell grabbed the other man around the neck and began choking him, until he was pulled away by several other players and team officials. Told to leave practice, Sprewell returned within 20 minutes and threw a punch at Carlesimo before he was again pulled away.

    https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/nba-suspends-latrell-sprewell-for-attacking-coach

    Well it appears if you're black and you attack white people your employer will give you a $21 million dollar contract extension. From the same story:

    When the season ended, however, Sprewell rejected a three-year, $21 million extension offer from the Timberwolves.

    Libs, please don't give me an excuse about how this story is old when you guys constantly bring up things from 200 years ago. And please don't tell me Sprewell's assault is different because he's not a cop after telling me that choking someone is a crime. And please don't tell me this isn't a racist act after telling me it's racist when it's done by a white guy.

    Here we have similar stories, in one story, from what we can see, a white guy is the aggressor and possibly justifiably so, but the left has already determined his guilt from a few seconds of un-contexted video. But in the other story nothing really bad happens to the aggressor, there's no cries of racism, and he got paid millions for his trouble.

    I predict the left will either be silent or come up with excuses as to why one guy choking another guy is different from one guy choking another guy when the colors are reversed.

    SBB, care to answer? Please don't respond with your usual deflections and answering questions by asking questions. What is the difference between this cop and Sprewell, they both did the same thing.

    Yeah .. the black many probably called the Cop an "errand boy for the State" ... that usually will get a cop very riled. Cops should be able to choke people to death for making such a comment - even if the comment is true :)

    Who said it was racist? I never said a word about race. Why are you accusing me of something I haven't done? Does is make you feel warm and fuzzy to play the race card against people you percieve as leftist and then accuse them of playing it?

    You are the one who talked about race. I said nothing about race nor did I imply anything about race. Try to be intellectually honest.

    It's not a matter of if they should or shouldn't, it's a matter of they sometimes do, and it's almost completely avoidable, as 99.9% of the time, it is the suspect or detainee who's in control of their fate....be a cocky jackass, defy lawful commands, threaten, try to exert dominance over the officer(s), or physically resist, they're going to show you who's running the show 100% of the time, no matter what color you are.

    Be polite, respectful and compliant, you're either going to be released without a scratch, or be delivered to the jail for processing without a scratch.

    here's my final bit of wisdom to stupid people regarding interactions with law enforcement:

    It may be harder on the PRIDE to comply, but it's a damn sight easier on the BODY.

    (take it from a long haired white boy who ran in some pretty rough circles back in his outlaw biker days)

    I was addressing your concern over the size of the individuals involved. If you think the kid was no match for the cop then how do you feel about a 6'5" world class athlete attacking a much smaller and older coach?

    I don't know anything about this other situation, nothing. Nothing about it and nothing about the people: so I'm not going to comment on it.

    What I told you about the basketball player and his coach equals as much as you know about the cop and this Waffle House kid. And there is far more info on the internet about Sprewell choking people than there is about this cop/prom situation, in the Sprewell situation we know what led up to it - feelings.

    There is a lot of difference too bad you try to bring some bullshit propaganda to it. Sprewell is paid to play basketball not uphold the law.

    Why didn't PJ press charges against Sprewell?

    Also wasn't Sprewell suspended for a year.

    If you want to call it racist, by all means do so. With that being said don't try to bring some bullshit to try and excuse what is being done to black folks today.

    Well blacks are calling for a boycott so maybe no more disturbances now and law abiding people can eat their meals in peace and the police can tend to more important matters.

    So in the mind of folks like you blacks should just go into places act unlawfully create a disturbance and intrude on the law abiding people trying to enjoy their meal and then fight with the police when they arrive. Gotcha.

    You insist on blacks being able to create disturbances in violation of the law, be able to fight with police officers and suffer no consequences for their acts. It just amazes me how every time we see one these incidents folks like you are quick to say it was all about race when race had nothing to do with other than the propensity of blacks to act violently and break the law so that even without seeing the video or pictures we can pretty much guess what will be the race of the person causing the distrubance.
