He's tired of the mature topics that require serious discussion and hold relevance to the real world beyond drawings.

Police officers choked a man to death ON CAMERA. When the man said he couldn't breathe, he said **** your breath ON CAMERA.

Dude, relax. I like you so I'm gonna leave it at that.
Okay? Different scenarios.

Still scenarios where officers were handling suspects on camera. Yes, they are different cops and different locations. But it shows that "camera was present" isn't a viable excuse. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many cases of police officers doing shitty protocol with a camera present.

You're not understanding, this dude is all over the news and is being highly debated about around the country. They're not gonna do anything that can have more shade thrown at them when all eyes are watching.
Different scenarios. The camera isn't the point, the media is.

To be honest, looking at that haircut, his mugshot and that one picture where he's smirking, I couldn't help but think "This looks exactly like someone that would do this."

no arguing the point but at the same time, where was that white boy gonna go? what was he gonna do? how many cops were there? as for the other pic, the cops (appears) to be by his self, thou im sure he has at least another cop or two there, if that girl got up and ran she coulda prob dipped on them, and since she is black and the crime she had to of done (or not idk) couldnt of been serious enough to shoot her if shes running, pinning her down that roughly? nah, no need, just cuff her to a **** telly poll, or a gate bike stand, something. but idk the full story for either, and i bet no one else here really does either.

Exactly, not to mention they were super close and even holding him. Complaining about handcuffs in a situation like that is just to rustle people further.
The justice serving should be the issue at hand. Everyone knows there's inequality. This is just nitpicking.

My theories are too crazy for this forum... white privilege is a real thing though. I will say that. But I think it's a tool of manipulation. I wish it weren't real. Racism is the saddest thing on the planet. If it didn't exist, there wouldn't have been so many problems. And many of my ancestors wouldn't have needed to be burned up in the holocaust...

Where was Eric Garner gonna go? What was Eric Garner gonna do? What could that little girl do? Did you see how many cops were around them? Come on, dawg. It's clear as day we're treated differently than white people here. This kid just killed 9 people, and they didn't even cuff him. That's not saying something to you?

The moment I see any person with a bowl cut my coon senses get to the tingling and I immediately activate my evasive escape trap card.

I really live these racists posts.
You can tell whos racist and who isnt by the way they approach a topic.
How about you just dont mention the race?
A PERSON (do not include the race, gender, age, or name) did so and so is the best way to do this.
I dislike people who are racists. Also you need to understand that just because youre colored doesnt mean you cant be racist.
I see people use their race card all the time to get out of trouble and i have never done it. Why? Because if i do, my family will beat the shit out of me, id lose respect of my friends and i will be discredited of my deeds as i play the victim card.

I dont care who casted the 1st stone. I dont know how we got spiraled back to the point of civil unrest due to racism. That issue was solved half a century ago and yet we regressed back to it again rather than moved forward.

Look, whites don't have a secret code that automatically gets them out of trouble or anything. Whites tend to have a higher income because blacks came out from slavery relatively recently and Hispanics here are poor because they came for economic opportunities at the bottom of the labor chain.
Discrimination against minorities is not socially or politically accepted. Don't act like all minorities live like the Jews in Nazi Germany.
Minorities are profiled by cops because our culture teaches them that because some of their ancestors got screwed over, they can act out and white people owe them something. Then a cop has to deal with it when they break the law. Culturally, the idea that black people are inherently violent and ghetto is perpetuated everywhere, even by so called progressives. It's a freaking self fulfilling prophecy, black kids grow up acting like that because subconsciously they believe that is how they are expected to act.
Are there racist cops? Sure. But all cops spend time with the possibility that some thug is going to shot them? Is it any wonder that, primed by culture to be cautious of minorities, they are more likely to panic at sudden movement and shoot the threat?
It's not as though a white cop has never shot a white guy or a black cop has shot a white guy. The media just likes making a huge deal about it and distort it so they get more views. Black guys kill white guys all the time, it's just not shocking or controversial enough to make a good news story.
The larger problem isn't racism or white privilege or anything like that.
The problem is cultural perceptions of minorities perpetuated by Hollywood and the ilk.
