If he wasn't killed by a police officer nobody cares, and thats the facts. Sad place we are these days.
Point is that if you can't pollitise it its not worth talking about it in our society. On any given weekend 20 people will be shot and killed in Chicago, why are we not marching every weekend in Chicago? Back to my original point nobody really cares.
So interesting
If you have a different opinion nowadays
You are part of the problem
That’s usually an attempt to close down dialog
stop with the tropes man
this fkng chicago ruse is the most basic red herring...
my experience is that usually when people bring up Chicago as the first reaction to a black person being innocently killed, that person is part of the problem, not the solution.
you are showing your stripes here.
Serious question, what is the ruse in regards to Chicago? Place is like a video game in regards to violence in many of the districts
I monitor this website who keeps track of the daily violence because it’s so astronomical, it created morbid curiosity. There have been 360 people shot in JUST July. 73 killed. So far Just this weekend 49 people have been shot, 9 killed and you still have today/tonight to go
Just like people who feel there is no need for any police reform lack credibility, those who want to paint the picture as it simply being a cop problem, lose me also.
Don’t march and destroy a city over what was certainly murder of a black person by a white cop, and then dismiss the black on black crime happening in cities

Should I find a website that shows you how to walk and chew gum at the same time?
This is an and discussion...not an or discussion.
Those who need to have that explained to them need to ask themselves why...

Irony is lost on so many.Point is that if you can't pollitise it its not worth talking about it in our society. . . .
That’s a big jump from his original post.Look at the post that I responded to. It was a cheap shot and uses a trope to suggest that black people are animals and if they are going to kill each other why should we care about police issues with the black community.
I mean seriously why am I having to explain this to some of you?
Be better.

Once it got the political bs I lost interest. Original purpose was just to provide info about local hoops tragedy. Nothing more nothing less.what's with the drive-by by the OP?
Starts this thread and then disappears? what is he really saying?
This is completely wrong and you should delete it ASAP and apologize. I agree that there was no reason to bring up Chicago or no one caring about kids dying because that was not why the post was made. However in no way did he insinuate black people were animals. That is incredibly irresponsible.
Sir Scarlet, What makes you believe it is only blacks being shot or doing the shooting? Who has the preconceived belief that these are only black people, looks like its you. The people who live in these neighborhoods deserve to be able to walk down the street without being afraid of being killed. The funny thing is people who live in these areas beg for more police protection and get very little. The only people who are wanting to de-fund the police are silly woke white kids who live in suburbia with mommy and daddy. News organization should be in these neighborhoods pointing this out instead they are focused on a bunch of white anarchist in Seattle stealing from Amazon. Yeah that is going to make things better.stop with the tropes man

apologize for what? I will not apologize
the whole "But Chicago..." response is meant to trigger these exact feelings in people. that blacks dont care about blacks...so why should we care about them getting killed by police in higher numbers. "I mean they dont even protest when they kill themselves, so why should we care about these protests"...what point do you think is being made then?
why else is Chicago being brought up here in response?
You said he referred to black people as animals. He said nothing of the sort. You can disagree with his point without saying something so vile and disgusting.

I did not say that...my comment was related to the misleading use of the violence in Chicago "talking point" which I referred to as a trope...THAT is an attempt to trigger this response in people by groups that are much more divisive than - I suspect - you or I. and it's sad that people fall for it.
"...It was a cheap shot and uses a trope to suggest that black people are animals..."
lefries like you are the problem, always blame the man and dont take resposibility for your own actions.Should I find a website that shows you how to walk and chew gum at the same time?

You’re the one who politicized this thread. Self fulfilling jerk prophecy?Point is that if you can't pollitise it its not worth talking about it in our society.

Shouldn't the "M" in man be capitalized?lefries like you are the problem, always blame the man and dont take resposibility for your own actions.
I see SS has had plenty of time to respond to this and chose not to. Yes.. you are correct.. he was trying to brand anyone a racist who even mentions the violence in Chicago or anywhere else.You absolutely said he used a trope to suggest that black people are animals. You literally typed into the keyboard to suggest that black people are animals.
His response fits in with the OP insinuation that it had been 3 weeks and we seem to not have discussed Brandon Hendricks death.. and still have not... not really.You’re the one who politicized this thread. Self fulfilling jerk prophecy?

lefries? is that what they call someone who voted republican for ~20 years and has the ability to say that BOTH situations are issues, vs. playing them off each other.
welcome to 2020 and the lame talking points of the GOP...
