Yeah, the messaging is all over the place. We need cops but we don't. They shouldn't be able to use lethal force or even rubber bullets except when they should. Black lives matter and we shouldn't tolerate a single death, except when they're bringing the coronavirus home with them after the protests.

Nothing mixed about it.

Force when force is needed. Not a tough concept.

Everything has qualifiers.

So why did you say "white guy" Veikur?

I'm assuming because they read the twitter post right on the link but didn't read down below. Probably jumped the gun on that sure, but also it's like.. real hard to do the detective work by all of you isn't it?

No, but you'd think the OP would be held to this same standard...

They should be, yes.

Better be careful or you're going to get tossed out by your like-minded brethren with the rest of us sodomites with that kind of thinking.
And? I wont be hanging with any of you either.

Okay. So guy was surrendering. No force needed.

Unless the cops took him behind the alley where the protesters couldn't get video and pummeled him to death

He looks quite white in the video.
For clarity, this was what I saw in the video:


Dudes looks pasty as *** on my phone. And composed of approximately potato pixels.

So that is what my screenshot showed someone else say. Is it enough to "look" white, even though you aren't? I mean.. something to be said for that.

Oh man I truly hope Minneapolis does in fact completely disband all of their police.

I can't wait to watch the mass exodus of any person or business with any wealth from that city until it becomes a 3rd world mini-nation within the borders of the US. Kind of like Detroit but smaller and with slower drivers.

I wonder if they've made the connection that people are going to reflexively arm themselves for extra protection if the police presence is reduced. Can't have their cake and eat it too, I guess.

I'd honestly like to see that done, it can be the litmus test for the rest of America to see how completely foolish the idea will be. Any smart business owner would run far far away from there.

Yeah, I wonder if this includes albino blacks?

And before you blunder that's not a thing, I grew up with 2 black albinos. Looked whiter than me from 10 feet. Mean as ***, the both of them.

It's called white passing.

If you don't believe in white privilege, it's nothing for you to bother with.

It matters when ideologues are trying to pin how he was treated on white privilege.

Had he been black would he have been shot? We'll never know.

He's not hispanic, he's not white, he's not latino. He's "not black".

Doubt it being he just walked up to them with his hands up. But like you said, it was all weird, like the guy was either wanting them to shoot him or something, dude may just be mental.

Well, more mental than just someone who'd do what he did, if that's possible.

Minneapolis City Council announced, through veto-proof majority, intent to disband MDP

So, mass exodus of wealth and businesses in Minneapolis. Working as planned.
