HeavyDuty Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 I wonder how our great president will handle the BLM now that they have become a terrorist organization. How will he find a way to keep praising them for the great work that they do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is starting to look like the BLM has become nothing more than a hate group. It may have started out with good intentions but now it looks like it will not end that way. Can we include many of these police departments in that description? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyDuty Posted July 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) I know there are bad cops out there but I have never run across a bad one. But then again I am always respectful and comply with their wishes. Having a son and daughter that are both cops they tell me the first 5 words out of your mouth will set the tone for the rest of your encounter with them. So don't be a stupid asshat right from the start. And if you are stopped for speeding just man up to it and take it most of the time township or county cops will let you go with a warning if you not a smartass right from the star now with the highway patrol just smile and take the ticket their job is to mostly raise revenue.

motocat12 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 1 hour ago, Isaac's Papa said: Nobody is saying good cops are a myth, but if you don't acknowledge a corruption problem within the policing system, then you're just being pig-headed. I know cops that are good people that will tell you (after a few beers, that is) that they work with shit cops. The officers all know who the bad apples are, but it's "policy" to keep your trap shut. Maybe in smaller towns it isn't an issue, but it's a thing. So cops are like any other Union or government job. The ACLU obtained data also finds that African American and Latino neighborhoods also experience more violent crimes, resulting in more urgent emergency calls Likewise, nearly all of the predominantly minority districts had more Priority 1 calls per officer when compared to white neighborhoods, which largely explains the continuing disparity in response times. Beat officers in minority districts have approximately 1.5 times more Priority 1 calls than beat officers in white districts. When special unit officers are included, the disparity is still 1.4 times greater. For example, the minority district of Grand Crossing had 2.6 times more Priority 1 calls per beat officer in September (23.7 calls) than officers in the white district of Lincoln/Foster (9.1 calls). http://www.aclu-il.org/newly-released-data-shows-city-continues-to-deny-equitable-police-services-to-south-and-west-side-neighborhoods/ Until certain neighborhoods reduce their crime (10 calls per night in subsidized housing units) I don't know how they can suppress cops' survival instinct 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Well said Moto. The cops shooting people is a symptom of the greater disease. That of generational poverty and lack of hope. The US poverty rate is 15 percent and climbing. Worldwide it is 9 percent and falling. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Or we can just build a wall around those high crime neighborhoods and pull all Leo's out and let them police themselves and see how that goes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyDuty Posted July 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Interesting According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics, 93 percent of black homicides were indeed committed by other blacks and 84 percent of white homicides were committed by other whites.

Misleading stats. The World Bank defines poverty at living on less than $1.90/day. The US defines poverty based on family incomes but it over $4000/yr ($11/day). Not saying there isn't disparity in the US but US poor is not the same as world poor. Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie14 Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 HD's point may be that it is far more efficient to mitigate 93% of the problem rather than taking the politically polarizing route of attacking 7%of the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustinsn3485 Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Maybe I just don't understand...anyone has a right to peaceful protest. When did it become ok to close roads, intersections, interstates, etc? Down here in Nashville they've been marching down main roads and holding up traffic, one hour sit downs at intersections. Memphis they shut down I 40... I don't get it...maybe I'm not supposed to... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
