Well here's what I think. And it drives me nuts so I am less and less interested in reading on ultra partisan type forums lately (of either kind).

Well I've been here long enough to know that PaceAdvantage isn't a racist as a person. (you're welcome......but I have never seen you as a racist. )

HOWEVER I think both Pace and the original OP couldn't resist being able to apply their (obsessive) partisanship to a simple video they watched.

Pace, perhaps to grab onto the "thank God we have a PRESIDENT who cares about justice for minorities......" And the OP may have had intent to make this racist "because Trump is a racist".


This insistence that everything is partisan, is just as nutty and sad as the idea that everything is racial.


AM I THE ONLY PERSON THIS BOTHERS?


Stuff happens every day, regardless of who is POTUS. It happens all over the world. But when every single damn thing that happens in the entire universe is either nutritive "props" for Trump, or "bashes" on Trump....... it's like some kind of madness.


FWIW, I was one who made early comments on the video, which I watched "innocently" ----"innocently" because I had not read ANY news on it, had not yet seen ANY media on it........all I saw was a video somebody here posted in which I saw a human being subjected to over-the-top police brutality. (which to me is a training issue, a psych issue that needs addressing by the department, maybe some stress or PSTD issues, or maybe a culture of police brutality w/in that precinct which needs to stop. etc.)

Simple. Maybe I'm just blessed?

Bad Check?, Western Union?

I agree. Can you imagine the controversy if they hadn't?

I guess senortout is another one who hasn't actually watched the video.

The video itself brings race into the forefront.

The fact that there are people in this thread, pretending race isn't a big part of this story, is absolutely fascinating.

Well then watch COPS or Live PD.
More than a few cops - White and Black who go off like madmen on their own races. See it every week.

What for one particular A**** in West Baton Rouque - plain cloths guy wearing a vest. Totally NOT what you want as a cop.

And watch a lot of the one that get pulled over or arrested. By the end of hour 1 many nights, you will be rooting for the cop to take out his night stick and break some skulls.

But just blame it all on race and it will all be well.

I don't agree - the OP was piling on a previous racial incident, IMHO.

Answer: it won't.
Unless something new and radical is initiated.

Start with kids in elementary schools.
Make it compulsory for their parents/guardian to attend
the structured sessions. Otherwise, the kids flunk.

Kids aren't racists - until their parents plant the seeds.
How about they learnt to respect COPS in those classes, too?
Disregard for law and order ALWAYS comes about when parents fail to do their jobs.

And what about the kids whose Fathers no one can find....what do we do with them?

You really can't solve a problem until your understand what the problem is.
You have skipped over a big part of it.

Thanks...I guess?

But what exactly did I post in this thread that would even cause you to even consider it necessary to offer up a character reference?

It's just a disclaimer where you have to click a "I understand" button in order to view it...

Which is good...not everyone wants to see someone dying...

PA has two primary modes of attack when addressing any topic or incident that involves a potentially racist motive..

In the absence of 100% certainty, be ridiculously defensive and deflect, deflect, deflect.

In the presence of 100% certainty, continue defensive deflections, but blame libs for the racism’s existence.
