It was hashed out by Beer... but the lingering issue of race relations in this country can't be washed down with even the best IPA...


*edit* I just learned this today but apparently Gates and the arresting officer share a mutual Irish ancestor and are distant cousins... imagine that

A misunderstanding

Don't want to turn this into a race thread

what did you think this would be?

these are the issues, these things happen and will continue to happen,

and the other side calls these massive violations of rights misunderstandings and other light words that have no meaning, so many people want to act like the system isnt made to keep certain folks from also experiencing the american dream.
 
That's why I said misunderstanding we already had a thread on this topic and know the issue. There was no need to go any further than the picture I posted as a reference.

Nothing to see here I guess. Typical for people to write these incidents off as misunderstandings. It's so counterproductive to continue to sweep these incidents under the rug as "misunderstandings". Everyone seems to not see the common theme in all of these "misunderstandings".

Police entering our homes or citizens attacking African Americans in public due to white fear and seeing all African Americans as indistinguishable and a danger to society is not a misunderstanding, it's a problem.

last month not far from where I live this guy was shot dead after calling the police for help when his roommate stabbed his girlfriend.

I've had it with misunderstandings.

.....to think I said misunderstanding to move forward but dudes continue to bring up topics. Here is another picture this time from my state of a cop coming into a black man house to arrest him.
 
White dude is lucky he didn't get shot. 

Also happy to see him get charged. 
 
Welp, this is the America they want. The panopticon. The population walking around in a constant state of fear due to propaganda and the media so we got old white guys tackling ppl like they're cops. Policing eachother. He acted out of fear and a preconceived notion point blank period. Sad. Hopefully he gets jail time although whether he does or not isn't going to change or put a dent in anything
 
I need a pistol but it's too much hassle to carry one. Heavy military presence in my city, so seeing a black guy open carry is a no no (from Va beach). Portsmouth, Norfolk, Chesapeake you can do it and it'll look "normal".
 
black, white, green, orange...it's florida
it's the united states
it's the world

These incidents could be easily avoided if people didn't walk into stores sporting weapons. Don't matter if you have a permit, you're asking for it by just wearing the piece. It's incredibly narcissistic, too. I mean, what the hell are you trying to prove by walking into a Wal Mart with a holstered gun, anyway?

It's our right to carry, so would u assume someone is trying to prove something? U really think a 62 year old man is putting that gun on his hip thinking he's gonna look like a badass or sumthing?

These incidents could easily be prevented if people weren't so fn ignorant.

Dudes pick and choose when to come in with the tomfoolery.

You do know it's legal to arrest a person inside a home right?

This situation is years old and the video is alot more telling when you look at the details.

But go ahead and spotlight irrelevent situations to the true struggle to divert attention from actual incidences of injustice.
