see, but you do care enough to post and share your opinion.
look, i'm just warning you that you sound like a racist rationalizing his beliefs. you don't care that i think that, great. but it's how you are coming across, and i like to think of myself as fairly reasonable. but when you start using coded racist language, i get annoyed. "there's less racism now than ever before" is a racist loser argument. there's always work to be done. yesterday's improvement over "deplorable" doesn't mean we cannot make an improvement tomorrow to somewhere north of "terrible."
and i am convinced that you are trying not to see race here. like, that you are a racist, whether or not you are intentionally is another argument altogether.
here's a small challenge: do you agree that the behavior of this female black police chief firing 5 male black police officers for killing a male black person (i would go further and put in the descriptor BEATING HIM TO DEATH but whatever) in the timeline she did it was appropriate?
i actually say it should be quicker. i would argue that if i and four friends of mine went and BEAT SOMEONE TO DEATH, we wouldn't be waiting weeks for justice.
why has it taken so long to release the video?
but, for the sake of exercise, let's plsay pretend for a minute and take race and gender out of everything i said above: do you agree that the behavior of the police chief firing 5 officers for BEATING A PERSON TO DEATH in the timeline done was appropriate?
yes? why isn't it done so quickly in other cases? would race have something to do with it? especially the race of the officers and the chief?
whose race do you deem more important here: the victim or the perpetrators or the chief or the community being policed or what?
