TheTeapot Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 While not shootings there's a couple of big 'violence in america' videos out today. Police body cam footage from the Paul Pelosi hammer attack has been released, you can find it on reddit easily and no doubt elsewhere, and it is wild. Probably wilder sadly is the one that's getting released later this evening, of 5 cops beating someone to death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will the black community react to this, I wonder? Had those Police officers been white, rightly or wrongly there would have been riots and buildings being burned by now. The Police community stand in the Dock with some questions to answer now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTeapot Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Oh yeah no doubt. There are people on the streets protesting in a number of cities, but had this been white on black those protests would be riots. Also shows that the application of the taught violence of the american police is not exclusively racist. They're just fucking assholes.

I've said this before on here I think, the problem with American Police is that they have to assume that basically everyone they try to arrest is carrying a gun (and they often are). Therefore essentially simple tasks will always be escalated into some sort of military stand-off. The Police will have to take the view to shoot first. Morally questionable, but when it comes down to a you or them shoot first scenario. Edited February 1, 2023 by The Phantom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
