The one thing the progressive left & liberaltarians have in common is painting with a very wide brush, and totally ignoring history.
You know like portraying the “neighborhood cop” of yesteryear as something far better than the “gestapo” police of today.
You know the sweet “neighborhood cops” that would at dusk pick up the stray negroes traveling through town & knock them about before dropping them off outside the edge of town. The sweet “neighborhood cops” that (pre-Miranda) would beat a guy into a forced confession. The sweet “neighborhood cops” that would form a posse at the drop of a hat (when a scared person would blame a negro for a crime) and hunt down the first negroes they could find & lock them up. The sweet “neighborhood cops” that would always look the other way in domestic fights because a woman should obey her man. The sweet “neighborhood cops” that would brush off almost all rape cases because a woman was just asking for it or making it up.
You know those sweet “neighborhood cops”, those are what the esteemed cop haters would rather we have.
Yea I can see those who have been using this incident for their personal agenda, sad really.
Times have changed, cops were being shot at last night, guess it was their fault.

I’m getting to the point where I can’t talk to liberaltarians pretending to be conservatives anymore
You haven’t made a single point except by trying to totally distort the other side. You cannot lay a finger on the salient positions. You are doing what liberals always do, set up straw men to knock down.
It’s easy to knock down the straw man of radical libertarians. It’s easy to knock down the straw man of Al Sharpton and Eric Holder. Big deal. We all agree on that.
Maybe you should stay at the childrens’ table where the easy stuff is discussed, and leave the more complex and changing issues to the adults.

Coming from a poster who sees cop haters when cops are criticized, that’s rich.
