    On verge of meltdown outside White House now. Peaceful protesters getting rushed and tear-gassed on live TV. This is an escalation.

    It would be a pretty uncontroversial point in literally any other context. If you tried to argue, for example, that Israel acts like it does simply because they don't like Palestinians on some innate 'institutional' level it wouldn't pass as a serious analysis, yet we're expected to buy that this stuff all happens in a racist isolation chamber because of slavery and Jim Crow and how Joe Louis got stiffed on his taxes. It's a bit simplistic even on a superficial level, let alone when you get into the statistics and see that the police are equally as likely to waste unarmed white people. That would suggest that the police are just a bit crap (or at least more confrontational and/or unstable because guns), which when you throw them into 'communities' with disproportionate amounts of violent crime... What do you expect?

    With that in mind, police reform seems a bit pointless other than in a general sense (as Pepe said), and how likely is that when literally anyone you approach could be carrying the means to blow your head off? Meanwhile, why not sort your own community out and make it less of a violent sinkhole liable to attract heavy-handed policing? Again, that might take a while, and you may well be up against racist disadvantages (including deluded white whoppers infantalising your actions and reducing you to part of some haunted grievance mass); but at the very least you could not make your fate worse on every conceivable level with the full spectrum of negative stereotype behaviours.

    Governor of Illinois has just gone in on him both in a direct call as well as on CNN. He's a goner. Someone ought to save his ass and assasinate him.

    I thought the COVID pressers were good but I could watch CNN for the next 8 hours. You can almost taste the imminent scenes. Cuomo now laying into him.

    Imagine Jon Jones confronting you...

    When the protests spilt over into Albuquerque on Sunday night, Jones was quick to confront two teenagers carry spray cans, demanding they hand them over to him in a video posted online.

    The police really are responding with a crazy amount of force. Peaceful protesters getting beaten by police with batons and tear gassed. I almost want the cops to open fire so we can justify some more shit and to bring Trump out of his lobster shell

    Some here, though possibly only Lewis, will remember me posting about my neighbour being killed a few years ago.

    Their state ME's report, that Floyd died of a heart attack which may or may not have been caused by the stress of having his throat compressed, is the same thing they said happened to my neighbour. A twat had grabbed him by the throat and pushed him up against the wall, at which point he had a heart attack and died. Twat was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to, I think, six years.

    There was no racial component and twat wasn't a policeman so the cause of death is the only point of comparison, but I'll be interested to see how that compares to whatever slap on the wrist the dickhead policeman there gets.

    The White House video that they cleared out the church for is the most laughable thing I've seen in a while.



    He's always been a petulant child, but it just amazes me that people can look at that and go "yep, that's my leader".

    That too. While the situation you are in might not be your fault at all, you are, ultimately, the one best placed to improve it. It is a bloody steep as fuck uphill battle in the US though.

    On the other hand, how demented by him do you have to be to consider that?

    Romans 13:
    Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience
    He's taking the Bible at its word if anything.

    Hi there. Enjoying the apocalypse, fuckers?

    Lewis seems to be causing a stir over the last couple of pages. But he literally thinks that anti-Hitler resistance was pointless so you can hardly expect him to have a hard on for anti-Trump resistance.

    For all Trump's many shortcomings is this issue really anything to do with him?

    I don't really understand the US police system, or in fact many facets of their society, but somewhere between it being insanely politicised/partisan and every fucker potentially having a gun it seems to have gone wrong.

    I'm sure Mert will be along shortly to affirm that actually everything is fine as life in the 'burbs continues unhindered.

    It was a problem a long time before he came into power and will probably be a problem for a long time to come.

    He has been making things worse though.

    I remember that. It was the White Rose specifically. But yes, obviously my views on the practical value of protesting under the Third Reich, which cut their heads off for leafleting, informs how I view all political demonstrations.

    Nah, the same shit was happening under Obama. The difference is that Trump actually sides openly with the white supremacists.

    A politician turned up in his constituency and said directly ‘if I didn’t have a primary, I wouldn’t care’

    This is why this whole ‘vote D’ is total nonsense.

    This is kind of bleak. Admittedly, there's a lot of Covid deaths, car accidents and even a 9/11 related cancer in there.

    The top one being for 9/11 related cancer that the Senate is still refusing to pay for is fucking hilarious.

    These sick fucks in power give no shits about the police, just their role in keeping the people they don't like in their place.

    Last 2 NYPD officers who died from gunshot were friendly fire.

    Seperate protest but I just wanted to share because it's hilarious. This is why they shoot tear gas at people not confront them:

    Looks like a good few cops are starting to get shot at and CNN just showed some cracking footage of some looters running over a policeman at speed.
