Really?! We saw what resulted and the consequences are not done for this town. Why would the people there trust the police now

It feels like a race revolution of sorts. A second civil rights movement that digs more deeply into the foundational issues upholding invisible but present racism. Imagine if the colonists thought things with king George and England are going to get worse so we shouldn’t start anything or any war worth waging for a better outcome. You might be a passivist and respect that but it is only worse for the establishment and those benefiting from what they consider peaceful and prosperous. It has not been like that for many. I know that may be hard to see and hear from where you may be living- I don’t know. Trust me. We live under constant anxiety and stress from forces and situations that most of my white brothers and sisters don’t see or feel or don’t see as dangerous or unfair. So revolution and civil rights movement is on the horizon is the thinking for some.

So how does stealing property and beating up people help "dig more deeply into the foundational issues upholding invisible but present racism"? You really believe looting and assault wins people to your argument? Are you actually making a comparison between these idiot criminals (of all races) to the American Revolution?

How does conflating peaceful protesters with opportunist
Aug 26, 2020, 8:29 PM

dipshits taking advantage of chaos to loot and burn accomplish anything? It's rhetorical, no need to answer. If you lump them all together, you can easily dismiss all of it and ignore the actual message.

Any blame to be handed down for the "blending" of peaceful protesters and rioting "dipshits" rests squarely with 1) rioting dipshits and 2) cowardly politicians who refuse to end this. Whatever message of hope peaceful protesters hoped to advanced is long gone.

Wisconsin is not a "stand your ground" state nor is lethal force justified under law unless you can reasonably prove you faced imminent death or seriously bodily harm. They have Castle Doctrine, but not Stand Your Ground.

openly displaying a firearm is a good way to get yourself shot, regardless of the legality. At least we can agree on that.

That he had a pistol pointed at him at point blank (don't show me some grainy picture of the dude holding it in other situations).
How do you know this kid didn't issue the threats with his gun first?

Why was he being chased?
Aug 26, 2020, 7:10 PM
|
|
He had just shot a guy in the head. (The guy he shot threw a Molotov cocktail, missed, continued chasing the kid with a gun. Not sure if he had another weapon on him)
So it seems what is likely to have occurred is that these other protestors/rioters/whatever saw/heard this guy shoot a guy in the head and thought he was going to kill others so they were trying to protect others/themselves/citizen arrest.
Or
They were with the first guy (who got shot in the head) and really wanted to do harm to this kid and were chasing him for that reason.

I think we took a while, but here's the crux of the issue.
Aug 26, 2020, 7:14 PM
|
|
They just saw this kid shoot someone in the head (I didn't see the first video and thought it was just the second one). They could have been thinking he would open up on all of them, thus the pursuit.

Yep, and I'm not trying to take a side as I don't know
Aug 26, 2020, 7:19 PM
|
|
why the guy that threw whatever it was at the guy with the gun and was chasing him, so it's possible he had another weapon or was the instigator and then what transpired was a tragic misunderstanding or if it was something more malicious. But, I think we all should agree that the kid shouldn't have been there with a gun and left the security up to the cops.
Also, I think we can all agree the rioting and destruction of property should stop immediately and don't help with the cause the protests are about.

does not also convey that you are now law enforcement. And further, you WILL go to prison if you see a thief robbing somebody else's property, and shoot and kill him, even in conservative states. "If you don't want to get shot, don't do stupid things." Is that really how you believe the laws in this country work?

The guy who got his arm blown in half has a pistol in his hand before and long after the shot that got him.
