Poor USA.
Corona. Most deaths in the world.
Then an imbecill of a police man followed by riots like this.
Finally, disaster weather storms from Mexico soon.

Can you clarify what you mean by 'invoking Antifa' as that seems to suggest that their involvement in all of this was made up for shits and giggles, which clearly isn't the case? I was hoping for a comment on the whole 'left can do no wrong' issue I brought up. I know how passionate you are regarding people being so intransigent in their political views that they can see their side doing no wrong (well, Tories anyway). I was wondering if this extended to 'the other side' too? I've already agreed with you about that last point on the Dominic Cummings thread. Perhaps you've forgotten? The point about Antifa is it has allowed some posters to turn the thread which was originally about protests about police brutality into the usual left/right politicised argument, when the thread was initially about police brutality, especially towards ethnic minorities. Not really a left/right thing, as far as I can tell? I don't understand your point about shits and giggles at all, unless it refers to me laughing at your comment re ACAB being an extreme left wing acronym. I'm genuinely sorry, if my laughing at it upset you, I just found it funny because it was so obviously ridiculous, that's all, no more no less. A cynic may say that you only agreed because you were backed into a corner but I'll take your word for it. I'm sure you'll be criticising people other than Tories for 'circling the wagons' next time we see it on this forum π I'm not angry at you laughing at my comment, Bluers. If anything I was trying to picture you scrolling down your device and suddenly guffawing at a sentence you disagreed with. It seems like a bit of an overreaction but I'm glad it brought some merriment to your life, mate. And it beats those bloody Tik Tok videos!

Well, the death toll suggests it's not blown out of proportion. And almost the entire majority of perpetrators and victims are not what you'd call ethnically white British. So, again, whose responsibility is it? And until the truth is faced, it will continue. Much like other ethnic crimes that were deliberately censored in this country. I'd love to know what 'white privilege' those northern, working class girls were benefitting from. Any protest about this institutionalised abuse would immediately be classified as 'racist' and counter protests organised by the woke metropolitan types. Is it any wonder we're in this mess? Naz Shah's a lot more sympathetic over current events than she was for those pesky bloody rape victims. Still, it's not done her career any harm has it?

I know Veterans for America have tweeted that some servicemen are prepared to refuse to take to the streets, but what would their reaction be to something like this? It's frightening.

For all too many members of the educationally subnormal group on here, the only thing that matters is making glib remarks about black people and trainers. Welcome to the Everything Racist board

Absolutely did not deserve to die and hopefully the officer is dealt with accordingly for his inhumane act. Its as if he's a held upon a pedestal because he was unarmed at the time. So why post the tweet then, detailing all his prior misdemeanours (along with the phrase "why am I not surprised?"), if it has no bearing on his treatment by police or death? Still no response to this I note. I'll answer the question for you: you posted the tweet because you resent some black guy getting all this attention so you're trying to undermine the sympathy he gets by attacking his character. As if that makes any difference to the rights or wrongs of the police treatment he received for buying a sandwich.

What's frightening for me Dave, is what happens after the push. At a stretch you could suggest that the initial push was excusable bad judgement but what's beyond the pale, is that you hear the crack of his skull on the pavement and there's blood pouring out of his ears and yet every single policeman just walks past him. I just don't understand how any person could do that.

I just don't understand how any person could do that. Probably because you're not an American policeman trained in the "art" of crowd control, where a few cracked skulls are "unavoidable" to get the message through to the rest of the crowd. The injured man can be dismissed as unimportant collateral in the way of the main objective of restoring order. In this kind of situation aggression and the creation of fear are the tools of the police.

You seem to be fixated on the ACAB thing. One brief sentence has produced numerous references to it and out of all the issues raised on this thread it seems a little odd to be the thing you've got hung up about. And while I may have gotten the origins of a grafitti tag incorrect (woe is me, my other comments must be invalid), at least I know that 'leftwing' should actually be written as two seperate words π

It is a fitting testament to the bottom feeders who inhabit this part of the board though. Oh get a grip would you. Literally everybody in this thread is united in their shock and outrage at the video of George Floyd's brutal murder. Literally everyone. The line of separation is over whether this is an example of deep rooted institutional racism, and therefore a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement like the woke media in this country are trying to lead us to believe, or not. I've heard many arguments and seen many stats (such as the overwhelming majority of people killed by police in America being white, and all those statistics being fairly in line with demographics / demographics living in poverty, etc) that refute the arguments BLM are going to war over right now. Stop circle-jerking and acting like you're a few bastions of virtue surrounded by a hoard of racist ogres. I'm not going to spam this thread even more (as tempting as it is) with videos of prominent black American scholars refuting the narrative of institutional racism, because ultimately the irrefutable police brutality that exists in USA is what this thread should be about, but believe me there are many of those scholars and commentators about. And the fucked up thing is, it's similar sorts of people who would scream racist at people like me, who also call those black people refuting the BLM movement names like "uncle tom" and "coconut". So just calm the fuck down acting like this thread is an example of the world falling. You're being hysterical.

The complete nonsense about the ACAB thing was symptomatic, that's all. Like you say, it's just one example of an inaccuracy that made me chuckle, not all that important I'd have thought!
