Just in time for the election.

Nope. It was back in 2021. Cops must be fairly clean if the pro-crime left has to go that far back for an election year.

The family of Jim Rogers settled with the city of Pittsburgh for $8 million. Of course the MSM won’t tell you that he had an extensive criminal record and was in and out of jail. The NAACP saw that pay day the Rogers family got and want a piece of that action too!

Due to the faults of the human race both sides are often in the wrong.

I have to side with law enforcement more often for one reason. At the start of the GW Bush campaign, a poster here said “I hate to say it but I will have to vote for Bush only because he will soon be in position to kill more Muslims.”

That came true.

I believe the law enforcement officers are in position to eliminate a fair number of the guilty people “who need killing”.
Without the police our vigilantes would be overwhelmed and overrun.

Note: from MGS1 when Snake is talking to Naomi while stuck in prison about how he killed Big Boss. When Naomi asks how he was able to do that, his response is “Some people just need killing”. MGS was a video game in 1998. Metal Gear Solid.
I have never played any video game.

And

From Lisa Kleypas (bestselling author)
“The way I was brought up ‘he needed killing’ is an airtight alibi.”

Murder is okay if you’re wearing a badge and a magical costume.

In any case, every encounter with law enforcement can be a life threatening event. You do not know the mindset of the LE when they approach you.

Oh, and when they ask for your “help” on something you need to shut up and stay shut up.

“I don’t answer questions” is all you need to say to them.

Association of Colored People. That doesn’t sound very diverse

What about the Association for White People to fill the hole left by the racist colored association?

“progress cannot exist without accountability.”

Such irony from the NAACP

I got called a Honky Cracker the other day. Can we get the feds to investigate that, too?

You can see just as many videos of criminal dirt as killing cops. Noob.

Unarmed doesn’t not mean non-lethal.

He fought the cops and resisted... he got tazed. Tazing is not lethal. It’s much safer than getting hit with a baton or pepper spray.

This guy was a doper putz.

Those who disproportionately commit crime not only cause their own death but likely deaths of others in their demographic tribe. People need to respect others and act respectfully and with character. We need to drastically change the system and hold those who can’t do this accountable and to hold them on an island where they either learn respect or learn the outcome of not learning.

Black America deserves better,

Hah!

"Black America" needs to clean up its act. Quit committing murder, rape, and robbery. Quit loading itself up with meth, weed, and fentanyl. Get a job, get married, stay married, and quit producing bastards. Quit depending on big-daddy government. IOW, quit being Black America.
