Wow, didn't even give enough time for the GOP to look up his arrest record, drug history, NOTHING. Is it even due process if the right doesn't explain why he should die first?
Are you a bot designed to start inflammatory discussion? Because I see no police apologists.. yet.
Not that it won't happen, it will, but.. why preemptively cause friction? Makes me suspicious of your account when you are posting "right bad" before they even showed up. Weird.
That said, your point is valid, but to me it's also shouting, "I'm a bot here to catalyze disagreements and derail into partisan bickering!"
I suppose there is also a chance a comment was removed? Idk. But I do know 100% that rich folks invest in "division" bots, it makes perfect sense from a chaotic evil PoV.
What division? That is literally what the GOP does when the police kill someone.
How about we have ourselves a pig fry? Fry a couple of pigs, in front of their brothers and sisters—it would be so great! I’m hungry, are you?
I certainly share that sentiment each time I see a new victim of police brutality.
It's enraging.
Democrats: let's put on these African cloths and pray on one knee while we continue to over fund police and make zero policy changes.
Yeah dems are sooooooo much better on this issue /s
Well, the one thing I can say is that democrats aren't abolishing civilian oversight. Wasn't that just passed in Florida, Texas, or some other red stronghold? I feel like I saw a conservative governor who banned civilian oversight.
That's certainly one difference. If you want oversight, it's hard to get conservative politicians on board.
Voting Democrat is not choosing your gender, it only has to represent you if you want that, like Trump voters, totally unnecessary.
Voting Democrat is a strategic choice one could make so that their job of helping those in need is easier and less risky (you are working to help others right? or just throwing a wrench to make things harder for others?). Republican cruelty will put those who support Palestine or feed homeless at risk for jail and things like that. Making your own job harder to make a statement nobody will see because it will be drowned out by the presidential results doesn't seem like a very smart thing to do.
Oh you mean like all the protesters being beat and arrested for protesting the genocide under Biden?
Or all the homeless people being beat and arrested under Biden?
Like do you think no one here has eyes?
You understand the world is not black and white right? Like you are familiar with the word "worse"?
I'm going to stop you right there and say no, they don't.
You know the word "enabling" right? When you keep voting for dems and not holding them accountable you are enabling them to do things like I dunno a Genocide.
Do you think giving up your voice is actually holding them accountable?
