thplinth Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 This one I am not going to try to embed. Fair Warning - this is disturbing - do not open if in any doubt. This is so cold blooded. Poor old guy is still holding his phone. https://leakreality.com/video/2734/77-year-old-st-louis-retired-police-captain-david-dorn-was-shot-dead-by-looters 77-year-old St. Louis retired Police Captain David Dorn was shot dead by looters when he tried to get them to stop looting a local pawn shop.

People are so entrenched in what they think is right, they ignore a lot of the bad behaviour. Those people arent protestors, they are rioting scum. The comments on twitter are just as bad, a lot of them are saying imagine hitting a black person, how about imaging hitting any cunt. Gangs beating up people deserve nothing but jail time, they don't understand the harm that they are doing, and they will indirectly play a part in the harm that their supposed community receive.

phart Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 They're not the same folk just cause they have a commensurate amount of melanin in their skin. They're all individuals who are each responsible for their actions. Every side should be cognisant of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately some of the police don't treat people like that, nor do some of the protestors. Edited June 4, 2020 by kumnio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecialisedOutsourcing Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 In the midst of long overdue and well justified global anti-racism protests some might say searching the web to find and publish examples (solely) of black on white & black on black crime is incomprehensible.

I know it's actually a real problem. The same shit happened in 1992 with the Rodney King stuff. Attacking your fellow citizen will achieve nothing for the cause and actually damage it cause you'll lose public support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) Rodney King was 18 years ago, I didnt think it was that long ago, I don't think we had camera phones back then, nor social media really. This will be far worse, videos can be uploaded and spread in minutes now. Good luck to America they will need it, to get out of this in one piece. I see theres been violence in Canada, hopefully it doesn't spread across here. Edited June 4, 2020 by kumnio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumnio Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Theres a list of black owned restaurants in New York City being circulated on twitter. The cynic in me would think this is a do not target list, absolutely racist beyond belief IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are effectively being green lighted for attack. This is very familiar. Except back then the shops were daubed with 'Jude'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanderark14 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I am reading about the protests in the uk. This is from the bbc - Organisers say the UK Isn't Innocent said Britain had "a duty to stand in solidarity with the US while exposing the inner workings of racism and police brutality in the UK". No i get them standing i solidarity with black people in the us but is the uk police force close to being caomparable? Ive no doubt therw will be incidents of police brutality. When it comes to deaths in police custody the BBC claims there were ten times as many white people died in police custody over the last ten years. do police in this countey unfairly target black people?

Mona Chalabi has retweeted it, which is where I saw it. She has posted quite a bit of dubious content recently, which is a big surprise.

thplinth Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I think London is a tinderbox. They have underfunded the police, fire brigade and emergency services to the point they would be overwhelmed so easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
