Including where I’ve highlighted police brutality? You have avoided what I asked by deflecting yourself. So you’re speaking shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not strange its what he is charged with accoring to CNN. You have definitely misinterpreted my posts because I haven't been close to comparing looting and rioting to murder nor have I suggest this makes up for years of systematic racism. With respect, you have me totally wrong 👍 Fair enough. Apologies for that then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But which also disproportionally impacts blacks more than any other group. Maybe there's a couple of underlying problems here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you’re speaking shite. Aye, including that. Especially that in fact. The protests/riots/whatever are about police brutality against black people. Showing us how they're also brutal to others shouldn't take away from the validity of the current protest but that's what posts like yours do, whether you mean them to or not.

Indeed. 1 minute ago, aaid said: Maybe there's a couple of underlying problems here. Aye, that would be my take. We've heard about the militarisation of the police. I also wonder about the folk the US police recruit. Are the guys carrying out all this brutality all former army veterans with PTSD? Civilians in Fallujah probably had it easier!

I haven’t mentioned anything about police brutality to whatever groups of people, I’ve just posted about police brutality. You’re obsessed by the race issue though. Clearly we aren’t going to agree and you’re seeing what you want to. Crack on with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front line police will be exposed to a lot of aggression as well, I’ve seen nurses assaulted and when they return to work they can either be timid or OTT when faced with aggression again. Not an excuse for police but some context into how they might operate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCTA Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Just hearing on the radio Glasgow is thinking about naming a street after George Floyd. FFS, what an absolute cringe.

Naming a street after a man with an appalling criminal background like his. I'm all in favour of Glasgow doing a lot more - well anything would be a start - to recognise the city's role in the slave trade. That said, I'm sure they could come up with whole load of suggestions that are more appropriate and relevant. Bit of a stupid off-the-cuff remark from Ivan McKee as it distracts from the main thrust of his argument. I remember going to Bristol about 10 years ago and being amazed at what they were doing there, at the same time you'f probably not got anyone in any position of power or authority to even admit there was anything to discuss..

Come on now? You endorse violence against totally innocent people. Whatever your logic is here it is totally fucked if that is your conclusion. So what do I care what you think. Garbage in, garbage out. You are still totally unable to condemn it aren't you? Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just a positive that so many things are caught on camera now. After this dies down, the American Police system needs some overhaul. A good percentage of them need sacked or jailed, but that simply won’t happen. The 57 men in the same team as the folk who pushed them have all resigned in protest at the two officers being investigated. Not their jobs just from the team they were a part of. https://www.investigativepost.org/2020/06/05/police-unit-resigns-in-protest/ Folk speculating this is the real reason Didn't the Union force the resignation by refusing to pay for protest-related legal fees? The union representing Buffalo police officers told its rank and file members Friday that the union would no longer pay for legal fees to defend police officers related to the protests Edited June 5, 2020 by phart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
