OT: Covid-19 (Part 23) Takin' it to the street

[WeThreeKings]

please, don't be shy to let us know which crimes you care more about - makes it easier for the rest of us to know who our allies are

Transparent why some people are still talking about 'looting' and 'rioting', imo.

We are far beyond the first few days where these things were happening in small capacity and now we are on 300+ filmed incidents of police violence and brutality toward innocent protesters. Here, we can see the tactic they have been employing all across America whereby they are taking peaceful protesters, siphoning them into areas where they cannot escape and brutalize them for violating curfew.

Wanna bet those who used to Fax and Mail their death tolls just stopped sending them and we'll get a big correction in a couple weeks?

One death this week-end didn't go unnoticed.
RIP Donalda.

Those two were perfect for their roles.

She got so much sympathy, and he had so much heat from all the stuff he said and did to her that he couldn't work anymore much after the show ended. He exiled himself to the US.

todo esta bien.

todo esta bien.

On top of still doing shit like this;
there's the elder abuse (of which they resigned in solidarity and cheered when they were released without bail);
there's the deliberate captivity of protesters and brutalizing of them..

and the clear directives to aim at and incapacitate anyone who is filming their unhinged violence.

Oh and I forgot, there's also the sexual assault and discrimination toward gender non-conforming protesters.

One lowkey thing I've noticed: everyone in the US suddenly loves the second amendment.

Anticipating 'mass vaccinations', Canada ordering millions of syringes
Hopefully, we get those before the vaccine is ready.

Aaron Derfel last 2 weeks: Opening up Montreal will cause a huge spike in cases.

Aaron Derfel yesterday: No huge spike but LOOK, this borough went from 5 cases to 11 cases in one day!!

Tool with an agenda.

No argument here. This is the core issue, and I think it starts with the police chief, or whomever is in charge of the officers on the street. We've been looking at the individual cops -- as we should -- but we need to look behind the scenes, at what's happening before these young men hit the streets. What tone is their superior setting? What instructions are they given? What standards are being imposed? While we're prosecuting the cops who acted criminally, we shouldn't give a pass to the head cops who train them and send them out there.

Thank you for doing a good job moderating this thread. The potential for this thread to go off the rails and be shut down is pretty high.

Wouldn't assigning white reporters accomplish the same bias?

Not saying any of the white reporters on staff are racist. But this shouldn't even be considered.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Just f***ing amazing from Stone Cold. Couldn't have been said any better or with any more eloquence

I love all these white dudes from the south stepping up to the cause. Its exactly whats been needed for a while now.

Dave Tate a pretty hardcore powerlifter/powerlifting coach just dropped Metal powerlifting, one of the biggest/oldest powerlifting brands out there because the owner is a racist prick. Not something youd expect from a white dude with a goatee and a belly from Ohio but its goddang refreshing.

It's the world we live in now...people form their opinions and just spin every direction to stick with it instead of simply admitting they were wrong. We all kinda fall victim to this, we see it on these boards regularly too in our hockey talks.

Not saying this guy is not a tool with an agenda though..I don't know him.

The problem is this is forum and I don’t consider myself to be a journalist. I chose to try my best to not be a shithead but it’s not my job. He’s constantly stating how he is objective, a journalist and just asking tough questions. All he does is stick to his doomsday narrative although the evidence is clearly pointing in the right direction.

For the past 3-4 days he’s been reporting on a spike of 10-20 cases in certain neighborhoods and almost ignoring the fact that the curve is almost dead.

I had an encounter with stone cold in a bar a few years back.
I was in the washroom when he came in. The door opened and I could hear shouting outside .... guys just calling his name, joking around.
I asked him what all the commotion was about, acting like I didn’t know who he was. He said “ah, nothin. Just some guys making a big deal out of nothing.” I sarcastically told him that I got his back if things get out of hand. He chuckled “thanks”.

Canada is 152 in the same chart. 651 murders

UK- 809 murders
USA-16,214 murders

Still a lot better than El Salvador and most of Central and South America!

We're better than Banana Republics! Yahoo!!

Reading about Minneapolis considering dismantling its police force. Other are calling for dis-funding of all police forces. Interesting points in the article. When domestic violence or social disturbance happens, who would you prefer sending? Men with guns with limited training or social workers accompanied by psychologists and medical staff?

Seems at first glance, it would solve more problems than create new ones.

Why not both?
