You clearly did not look hard enough in this thread. Plenty of people say he got what he deserved for being a republican.
He was definitely terrible and I’m not trying to defend him, but What’s your horse in this race?
I have no horse in this race. Just discussing a piece of news on a discussion forum.
The best way to not got shot by the police is don't brandish a weapon and don't try to escape arrest. If you don't do either of those things, you have a < 0.000001% chance of getting shot. Absolutely microscopic amounts relative to the total population.
In Germany about 60 people are shot per year by police, so that is well into the hundreds for the same time frame. In the united states, if you are not carrying a weapon, you have less than a 0.00001% chance of being shot by police. Obviously it's better if no one got shot but let's not overexaggerate the risk, like has been happening in this thread and is what I'm responding to.
That's a pretty fair response. Although I would say that I am against doxxing people who just happened to show up and didn't actually enter the capital/participate in any illegal behavior. You can't predict what the crowd will do and I think we would all agree it's wrong if a BLM protest got out of hand and they decided to punish everyone who was there simply because they "increased intimidation".
not sure what point you are trying to prove. A great majority of those people killed were armed. 8000 people is really not that much over an almost 10 year time span and all the justified shootings. You have 50x higher chance of dying in a car accident than dying by the hands of the police. That number because 300-500x if you are unarmed. The USA population is over 300m, this is a speck in the bigger picture.
Never before in history have minor disputes been able to be aired to millions of people over the internet. I think it makes the response a bit disproportionate.
What about all the January 6th protestors who were doxxed?
You know how you can look at people who say the government is trying to kill them and rightfully laugh at them as crazy? That's how I feel about people who think a cop has a 50/50 chance of killing you in America
Just curious to hear what people have to say
I comment on topics I find interesting. Cry about it.
Yes it is. And everyone would agree it is if this person was not trans.
