The Joker Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Why doesn't Obama just authorise a drone strike? This tactic has been his choice of urban pacification in the Middle East and Afghanistan for many years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harleyman Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 (edited) How can you seriously expect it not be played in a country that's still only a hundred and fifty years post slavery and where there a largely white police force has been killing shedloads of black folk? If the boot was on the other foot you'd be playing the race card like it was going out of fashion. While we're st it, what lessons do you think have been learned in the aftermath of the killings at Kent State University? How many black police kill black people and how many black police kill white people and how many white police kill white people? Got stats on that? Know much about the current racial make up of the Los Angeles Police Department of one of the largest and most diverse cities in America? Likewise New York? As for Kent State........ Well Bloody Sunday in N.Ireland never happened did it? Edited April 28, 2015 by Harleyman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happ Hazzard Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 The black people of Baltimore should be ashamed. The rioters are living up to every negative stereotype there is about lower-class black people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you're so good about telling other people, how should blacks in Missouri feel when they're 66% more likely to be stopped by the police than whites?

Legine Garaf Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 More than you do and I don't even live there. Funny that. got a source for that?? and by the way the chief of police in Baltimore shock horror is wait for it.......BLACK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halibut Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 got a source for that?? Yes, it's reported here - http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2014/08/3-unarmed-black-african-american-men-killed-police ---------- Post added 28-04-2015 at 21:33 ---------- by the way the chief of police in Baltimore shock horror is wait for it.......BLACK! So what? Does that somehow impinge on people's right to be angry when someone is killed by the police? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are the crime figures in Missouri like? Are blacks committing more crime, per capita, than whites? If so, they should be stopped more. Police are employed to fight crime, not be politically correct. I would imagine more men are stopped than women for the same reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't be naive enough to suppose that blacks in America get as good a deal as whites. There's an overwhelming amount of evidence to suggest otherwise. Educate yourself.
