    On one hand you have gutless lewkowskian manbabies in uniform; on the other hand, you have these guys, engaging with protesters with not only restraint but also empathy:

    There's a difference between arresting someone and charging them for minor crimes before they escalate and taking either pleasure or a cruel indifference in snuffing out someone's life.
    One leads to the other.

    The issue isn't how we deal with peaceful protesters. The issue is how we deal with rioters.

    Something I saw posted multiple times today (and which is completely beyond your comprehension since you're a sociopath)

    You keep saying, "It's horrible an innocent black man was killed, but destroying property has to stop."
    Try saying, "It's horrible property is being destroyed, but killing innocent black men has to stop."
    You're prioritizing the wrong part.

    Come on man, nobody takes you seriously, and nobody will take you seriously so long as you keep ignoring the fact that police are subjecting peaceful protesters—and journalists—to violence. It's adorable how you keep acting like you're worthy of consideration.

    No they really don't. There should be zero tolerance to such abuses too.

    They do. That type of aggressive policing gets in the way of community engagement, and instead foments a hostile, adversarial us-vs-them attitude among both cops and members of targeted communities, laying the groundwork for dehumanization and increasingly aggressive tactics. There is also no compelling evidence that it's good—it just appeals to a certain breed of "common sense"-/"it stands to reason"-dudes.

    Your random incidents aren't convincing anyone. If looting some stores is what it takes for Americans to take notice of people being murdered by law enforcement then I applaud the looters.

    A protester knelt down to tell police he loves and respects them. They threw him in jail.

    Police are giant babies. I don't know whether this guy has needed/gotten help via some sort of bail fund, but others like him surely will need such help. Not sure which ones are the most legit, but worth looking into.

    Arrested in violation of the Constitution for using his Constitutional rights.

    And Lewk think we care about a pair of stolen high heeled shoes.

    I don't even mind if the funds go to looters/rioters. Its 2020, simple peaceful protesting obviously isn't working.

    It's not just not working, it's trampled on by the government. Trump should be impeached.

    How about we care about David Dorn dying at the hands of rioters? Care about that? Not that it should matter but he's black.

    Nope, don't care. You got that entirely right.

    Police opened fire on a gay bar because the owner was handing out water to protestors

    Let's not forget that both parties went a tad nuts on crime.

    And as a Libertarian, yes the police are nuts, their policies (acting like they are in combat mode, the violence, seizing of assets to fund their budgets, etc) are nuts.

    Some of us have been complaining about this for DECADES. The surplus military gear going to them, no knock warrants, etc...

    Funny. You think safeguarding the right to bear arms is far more important than safeguarding lives. Now all of a sudden you expect us to believe you think a life has any meaning and is more important than the government trampling over our other rights? Preach it elsewhere, we all know you don't give a rat's ass about the guy, just the property he was protecting.

    Anyway, I'm certain he didn't deserve life because he probably had some minor criminal infraction in his past somewhere. And we all know how criminals ought to be treated and their deaths should be celebrated, right? That's what you've always done in the past when you saw a black man dead. You looked and looked for any suggestion of crime in their past and then said their death was deserved.

    Zero tolerance leads to bullshit where the bully and his victim get punished because "No violence!"

    Mattis 100% wrong. There is no need to try to side with rioters and looters or those who sanction the use of that sort of violence for political ends. The American generally have an unfavorable view of Trump, he's personally grating and a bit of a hypocrite. But - riots are going to red pill a lot of folks. Trump shouldn't try to make peace with rioters he should speak plainly that if they continue to threaten the lives of the hard working Americans (queue pictures of black businessmen and women in the wreckage of their businesses) then he will put down the rioters by any means necessary. Its a winning issue.

    Clearly a winning issue for Trump.

    Lewk, do you know any person who ever changed their vote based on debate performance (in a general election)?
