Did you read Jason Whitlock's latest article and the things James said on twitter without waiting for more facts to be revealed? That's his biggest issue, he wants to push a narrative of fear and doesn't care about the facts or the judicial process to play out. His twitter followers believe what he says and in turn burn down businesses and cities without waiting for more information to come out via an investigation. He needs to understand that with his platform he has a responsibility to not spray BS anecdotes and wait for the legal process to play out before being judge jury and executioner based off a 20 second twitter clip on a cell phone.

Banned @tugmac and deleted six posts referencing his dumb political shit. It takes a little bit of time to do that, boss.
Yep, good point, I'll just leave this thread now. Thanks for letting this thread to stay around on the Bunker with semi civil discussion especially now that politics and sports have been intertwined in 2020.
FTR I just researched this further, you are correct, I was wrong. The officer asked him to not grab his gun after he began firing not before. I only read the officers statement when I made that first post, which conflicted with video evidence.
So does Gil Collar and Justine Dammond or does your faux outrage only apply to white cops killing blacks and not vice versa?
Come to the Platinum Board and me, @Boisgreat or @AuburnSmith can should you some tricks that will speed up the process.
This is sadly true. Unarmed white people get shot as well, but it never becomes a major news story.
This IS an issue, but it is not a racial issue, despite how hard some people want to push it that way.
Whitlock's got an agenda juzt az James duz. I like WHITLOCK and agree wit hiz azz a lot.Did you read Jason Whitlock's latest article and the things James said on twitter without waiting for more facts to be revealed?

James lozt sum reezpekkt when he sed he wuz HUNTED errytime he left hiz MULTI M ILLYUN DOLLA MANSHUN!!
But, James speeeks out and he haz erry rite too. I don't alwayz agree wit hiz azz, but I ain't gotta problem wit hiz voicing hiz upinyuns.
I've sed dis beefore but it all comes to a coupla thangz:
(1) COPS KWIT KILLING BLACK PEEPEL THAT THAY PULL OVA
(2) BLACK PEEPEL, PLEEEZE COOPERATE WHEN PULLED OVA
If deez two thangz happen, we'll be in GRATE SHAPE.
Gun violence is NOT a serious issue in this country. Only 36,000 people are killed by a gun each year. 22,000 of those are suicides. That leaves a measly 14,000 gun Homicides a year out of a population of 328,000,000+. That is .004% of the population which is as close to zero as possible. Gun violence outside of a very few hot spots is virtually non-existent in this great vast country.
Yep...if that had happened none of this would going on...resist and bad things will happen. But, nobody in the media is saying that...
Funny when you've been shitting on Lebron for speaking out before knowing the facts...
But...important question, very sad what happened to Brieauna Taylor but was it done because she was black and the cops hated black people or was it a bad, bad mistake. If the cops intended to kill her simply because she was black that would be racism...but it was not. Do people really think this kind of stuff only happens to to black people by only white cops? No black cop has ever shot a white person?
If you’d said this in colonial America, you’d be ... very unpopular. It’s strange how things turn around over time and some things don’t.
DON’T QUESTION THE REDCOATS!
I don't care if you are black, white, green, blue, or red...if you resist and do not do as a police officer says and especially if you reach for a weapon bad things are going to happen. The cop has a family too and wants to go home to them as well. Cooperate, do not resist and things will be ok.
BTW, has anybody said these cops shot these people simply because they were black and they hated black people? NO!!!
Ever heard the phrase "apples and oranges". So your saying we need a revolution because of what everybody is saying is "police brutality". Trust me I question and want to limit our government all the time about many things. But to compare these events to the colonies rebelling against a tyrant king is silly. Again, please tell me these bad things happened to these guys simply because they were black and the police officer hated black people. Please tell me that a white person has never been shot by police in the same type scenarios that has our nation in an uproar. My Father taught me...it's not so much about not being at the wrong place at the wrong time to stay out of trouble, it's more about being at the right place at the right time.
I'm not cop material because I couldn't enforce rules of law that are unconstititional. I wouldn't want to be that kind of person that agrees to do what these folks are asked to do these days. I'd be more interested in being a judge and holding more folks accountable AND throwing some of this horseschit out of court.
There is a lot to agree with here and it’s clear that you’ve thought about the issue more than most. But I believe 1, 3, 7, and 9 are bad ideas.
Qualified immunity is necessary not just for officers but for nurses and doctors etc. Abolishing it would likely have no quantifiable effect on police shootings, and the defense likely is unavailable in the cases people most talk about anyways. I can discuss this in great detail, with specific examples of why qualified immunity is necessary for a functioning government, but If you want that I’d suggest you start a thread on the politics board, where this is probably going.
Not enforcing victimless crimes is too vague to be meaningful. If you don’t want a crime enforced, the legislature should amend the criminal statutes to decriminalize the behavior. DUI’s for example are victimless crimes, until they’re not.
Civil asset forfeiture is important for at least certain crimes for deterrence purposes, which people don’t think about. For example, why do you want Bernie Madoff to keep his assets used in defrauding billions from average people? I don’t oppose changing civil forfeiture rules but you should use a scalpel not an axe.
Requiring individual insurance for officers is a bad idea because the costs will not be reasonable for many given their pay, and this would be particularly true if your other suggestions are adopted. In addition, with the broadened understanding of vicarious liability in most jurisdictions, it’s unnecessary.
Finally, “militarizing police“ is a thorny issue. The devil is in the details. Patrol officers should not be “militarized” and generally they are not or only a select few are. And I think SWAT style units are overused and/or misused and/or in the worst instances out of control cowboys. But there is a need for more than a sidearm and shotgun in some instances. For a famous example, look at the North Hollywood shootout. This is another area where a scalpel rather than an axe should be used.

I hope as judge you would follow the law whether you thought it was horseschit or not.
let's just say I wouldn't fall in line and side with these proven liars that cover each others @ss
There are many different ways used to interpret the law.
Judges can rule laws unconstitutional. If a statute violates the Constitution, it is invalid. The US Constitution is the primary and supreme law of the land.

Yikes!!

Disrespect of authority in general has become a huge issue. Kids aren't taught to respect people (elders, teachers, police, etc...), and they grow up to be adults who respect no one. People don't like to be told what to do. Hell, I don't like being told what to do. But my parents taught me how to play the game. I know who I can tell to GFY, and I know who I can't. Teachers were always on the "no GFY list", as were police. Everyone else was apt to fall into the GFY list.

Bigger issues at stake here, IMO. First, everyone, I will repeat this EVERYONE has preconceived ideas and thoughts on these issues. The problem becomes when we rush to the decision by the court of public opinion, not based off the "totality of the circumstances." Media is so rushed to be FIRST, not RIGHT. Then sprinkle in hot button, racially charges narratives, and the Titanic is headed for the iceberg at warp speed. Breonna Taylor is a great example. "Wrong house, was not involved, has not seen the dude," all rallying cries within days of the incident. Now, more is coming out (see below) that contradicts that. Pretty certain she was named in those indictments as well. But either way, many have already made up there minds. We as a society (EVERYONE) can get so fixiated on the story, not the facts, especially when it fits our agenda. And for all the "defund police" types, ever gone to a scenario based training by the Police/Sheriff's Office? How many here have been in a fight for their life, as they perceived it, not 20/20 hindsight (Graham v. Connor, 490 U.S. 386 (1989))? How many here know Grahm v. Connor case?
