    Racism? I don't think so...

    I usually don't post in these types of threads but I'm fed up with all this riot bullshit.

    Before I get started I want to say without going into detail that I have a mixed family and feel the same about everyone as I would if they were all white. Those who know me know this.

    I've done my best to ignore everything that's going on with the riots. But, as everyone knows there is just no ignoring it.

    This guy Chauvin has had 18 complaints against him. I'm betting that the majority of the complaints weren't race related (african american, hispanic, etc...) or that would have been broadcasted EVERYWHERE. The guy is a bully who gets off on intimidation. That's probably why he's doing the job anyways.

    He hates everyone, this one just happened to be African American and he died.

    This isn't about racism, it's about a bunch of assholes, white, african american, hispanic, etc… looking to score or tear shit up. Everywhere I turn I see "black lives matter", yes they do but this isn't the case here.

    Are the media and government too afraid to say it?

    The fact can't be denied that more unarmed blacks are killed by cops than any other race. Does this make all cops bad or raciest, I don't believe it does. It's the bad cops that make the headlines when they kill a man fully subdued in handcuffs in broad daylight on a public street.
    I find it a bit disconcerting to learn that Chauvin and Floyd had a previous history of working together. This makes me wonder if this wasn't a crime of opportunity because of a grudge. I think peaceful protesting is good. The riots, the burning of cars, buildings, and looting is absolute bullshit.
    I have a great deal of American Indian blood, growing up I seen a great deal of police brutality towards Indian men and experienced some of it myself. There were a few cops, not many, that you didn't want to cross paths with.

      I believe too that he may have gone much harder than he should for possible past relations. I don't think he meant to kill him though.

      Either way, I hope he gets everything he deserves.

        Oh that cop is going to be roasted. The media will cause more riots across the country with any verdict that is anything but the max penalty. The rioting is pissing me off though. I haven’t watched the video and probably won’t but if it’s as bad as it is. The cops in custody. Justice will take its course and hopefully everyone can learn from it. The senseless looting just makes my skin boil and the opportunists that will jump in on the looting. It’s fcked

            When you control for crime rates, whites are actually more likely to be killed by police than blacks. Blacks commit more crimes, which = a greater probability of interacting with the police, which = a greater probability of some of those interactions taking a wrong turn (i.e., police brutality).

            Blacks make up 12 percent of the population but commit more than 50 percent of the murders. They are also 15 times more likely to kill a police officer than a police officer is to kill a black person.

            Why aren't all of these Aryan Viking Nazi white supremacist cops randomly gunning down Asians in the streets? Because Asians are, on average, pretty well behaved. Thus there are fewer cops in Asian neighborhoods, fewer Asians arrested for crimes, a lower chance of ever having to deal with the police.

            If Daniel Shaver - that completely innocent white guy who was rather horrifically (and deliberately) shot to death by the police 2017 or 18 - had been black, the story would have been about race. And the story would have been wrong.

            No one is defending Chauvin or police brutality in general, but the cops are killing white men in similarly stupid ways all the time, and you never hear about it.

            Don't give these tantrum-throwers and race pornographers an inch.

              I worked in a max security prison in Michigan for 8.5 years about 70% of the lifers were black. More than 90% of the violent crimes committed by blacks was black on black violence. The same held true with white violent offenders. That was before they went to prison, once in prison it was a free for all.

                Truth brother. It’s frustrating when facts aren’t actually considered. It’s the media though. They can make any situation the direction they want

                    I am white and had a bad cop and his partner beat the F out of me when I was young. Broken jaw, broken finger, destroyed knee. It is about bad cops, just like bad Drs, bad contractors and bad lawyers. Race baiters are opportunists.
                    The older I get the better I used to be.

                      This whole situation is a fucked up mess, I think there is more to the story than what we are seeing. Did the cops fuck up, sure they did BUT something is just wrong with the entire arrest. The guy was subdued, why wasn't he placed in the squad? There was no communication between the officers or Floyd? Shit is not adding up.

                        This whole George Floyd many are saying is a PsyOp / False Flag. The officer in jail does not appeart to be the same man who had his knees on Floyd's neck. The scene was so ridiculous it can't be real. Oh and did y'all notice when the ambulance pulled up it was two cops and not EMTs who jumped out? Wearing bulletproof vests and no medical equipment?

                        And Floyd was also in porn. This smells

                          I was told it was planned for a while - they just didn't know which incident would spark the riots - but rioting was in the final plan
