Yeah!

I do not want to fuck the police.

I just think the police should enforce the law without breaking it. The "To Serve and to Protect" that is often a department's motto and "and Justice for All" that is at the end of our Pledge of Allegiance. We can also add the Bill of Rights.

If the police cannot do that, then they are not police, but merely play acting. Same with the whole Justice System. We depend on the Law, and our society needs to have faith in it. Without it there is no trust in the system which loses the ability to function.

The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Way too late for that, it came from the top - when you don't prosecute crooks on Wall Street and in government for transcending with $billions, but you bring the hammer down on "little people" who so much as steal a $1 pack of gum, or smoked a joint, and do that for decades, you create entire generations of people who understand the "justice system" is a farce.

There was good news this week that we're going to see a cop face justice. The cop who shot a fleeing man in the back pled guilty. http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/ ... lter-scott

We'll see how he is sentenced but it looks like he'll be in prison for a pretty long time.

What's the proportion of Bad cops to good? Stupid proles get all riled up and riot against all police - then wonder why the police stop policing....gota love proles :D

Maybe he'll hang himself in his cell--wouldn't that be cool?

I'm not a BLM "fuck the police" sympathizer. This police officer shot an unarmed man to death when he fled from a traffic stop. The murdered guy was probably a scumbag criminal (because he ran from police when pulled over for a tail light being out) but that doesn't justify gunning him down. This South Carolina incident was not like Ferguson or the other justifiable police killings that the media riled people up about.

How did they find out he was unarmed? They checked the corpse. He had a record which included jail time for assaulting an officer, had been jailed multiple times, and had a bench warrant--he owed child support (thanks, Clinton, for re-introducing debtors' prison under the guise of "deadbeat dads!")
He ran because, allegedly, he didn't want to go back to jail.
How to survive an encounter with police: obey their orders, however stupid they seem; don't resist; don't run; being polite won't make you more likely to get shot.

No worries, guys. Culture trumps race. We just need to let these people know that civic nationalism is more important than BLM.
