Send messageThe footage of the hundred or so officers guarding that fuckers house at night while across town a precinct was abandoned is some real juxtapositioning."Let me tell you, when yung Rouj had his Senna and Mansell Scalextric, Frank was the goddamn Professor X of F1." -
I was nearly in tears today watching this shit.
My only hope is when he's a fucking rotting carcass, history will dunk on Trump and his Ilk. I know that doesn't help the here and now, but imagine reading "worst presidents" in 20 years.
I also hope I live 30 more years. -
Seems like someone gave the order to arrest them, it's not clear who exactly but I suppose we can guess.

Yep, certainly. That also happens regardless of the internet, see newspapers and traditional media. The internet is different in it's dynamism and scale, and the ability to use computation to parse the stream of information in various ways, to give people a way of seperating truth from bullshit. I can imagine some kind of open system that collates media on a subjuct and presents the relative differences and similarities in an understandable way, to at least give the average user a chance of possibly making sense of a complex situation.hunk wrote:The internet is a tool which has good and bad utilisations. Free speech and using it for educative purposes is definitely a good point. The proliferation of propaganda and misinformation and feeding it to humanity of which 90% is clueless and unprepared? Bad utilisation. Sadly most of the 1% and some of the 9% don't give a ff. They just want the social 1/9/90 pyramid manintained. Disrupting it would be bad for business.
Sadly the average user is the 90% of the general population who has never received higher education. No way they even have the remote ability to parse information on the www. which sadly means we are fucked. For now at least.
They're perfect targets to bombard with disinformation and propaganda. And as we saw in the 2016 elections, it's quite an effective strategy.
But nevermind me, I'm just a pessimist...

Interesting game of spot the non white guy in that lineup of riot police. Doesn't seem particularly representative. -

Send messageI think there is probably a good chunk of people who would actually join the police to help their communities were it not for the fact that you have work for an organisation that is known to be massively institutionally racist and which routinely murders your own people in broad daylight and gets away with it."Let me tell you, when yung Rouj had his Senna and Mansell Scalextric, Frank was the goddamn Professor X of F1." -
The ex police officer who killed george floyd has been charged with third degree murder and manslaughter.
Obama has tweeted on the incident

@dino something I suppose and I understand why the family are disappointed it’s not first degree. But how do they prove that when he’s police performing a dodgy restraining move? They better convict the guy. -

That seems to have been the catalyst for a lot of this open racism.

I dont think they would ever get a conviction on first degree murder. The prosecution would have to be able to show premeditated intent to kill. They would have to have recordings of conversations written diaries etc I believe.b0r1s wrote:@dino something I suppose and I understand why the family are disappointed it’s not first degree.

My understanding is 1st degree murder charges would have to show intent prior to any action being taken.

Video from now this comparing the difference in police response to the protests over George Floyd's death and the protests over stay at home. Watch for the guy in the red shirt and look at how he is handled compared to Floyd

Autopsy declares underlying health condition not asphyxia.
Fuck this shit. -
It's going to continue to burn if they use that to excuse not prosecuting the cop.

Heh, seems Trump is going for the exact same strategy which got him elected; winning over the rednecks of the Midwest. Except this time the sparks actually cause a wildfire.Steam: Ruffnekk

The pressing knee to the back of the neck sure did cure the underlying condition of being alive

Yeh agree with livdiv, best they could get would be third degree. Regardless the ex-cop will have to go to jail (good luck in there mate).
Thats now three deaths of innocent people who all happen to be black. A jogger, an emt who was shot 8 times by accident in a raid on the wrong house and george floyd. You do wonder where this end. -
It's a lot more than 3.

Killer Mike's speech is pretty damn powerful.

A very small selection of the bullshit Americans have to put up with when it comes to their police. -

This mirrors London+ riots in '11 a lot but of course America has a much bigger more ostentatious mirror so
