Everything you post is very debatable, all you care about is black people who may have gone a bit over the time not the thousands of black people who are innocent and peaceful and beating shot at or run over
Yeah but isn't that the same about the cops? Majority are not corrupt/racist/unjust unless you believe they are? :shrug: But I do think people from the #BlackLivesMatter movement who are going OTT at least have more to be angry about than the cops who aren't doing their jobs properly

They would be. Most of the protests are peaceful for a start the riots have only been escalated by the police. What the hell have a group of white people got to protest about? Black people are mercilessly being killed by police in america unjustly in a corrupt society.

This probably will be one of my last posts in here. It’s tiring to argue with mainly White people about these issues who hide behind their white privilege or just say outlandish views to provoke a petty reaction on an out-dated big brother forum, if you’re going to troll at least do it some place with some significance.

[lewis111]

I don’t even know what to say anymore. How ANYONE can defend the police after seeing the videos in this thread is so far beyond me. They are clearly enjoying terrorising these people, particularly the black people.

Its all a bloody big mess, the officer has been arrested and is being charged , what else can be done ? I don't think all the rioting will help at all,it will probably make things worse, and I really don't see why London has to join in, everywhere is so peaceful and quiet at the minute and now we have this to look forward too and I doubt the social distancing will be a thing then, :shrug: I would hope they will keep it peaceful without destroying things but I wont hold my breath,Its abhorrent what happened to that man but hurting other people will not help imo.

1 arrest isnt justice for the thousands who cops murdered and it wont stop them murdering again

All four officers need to be charged and with a charge that fits the crime, not some bs lower charge because they’re cops and got friends in the force, that would help, people want justice

lol no-one alive was involved in anything to do with the formation of their country. A majority of them also have nothing to do with murderers in the police force. You don't inherit the sins of the father.

Absolutely.

Far right folks are often too dumb to do such things. Sure they're violent thugs, but not chess players lol. AntiFa types always resort to violence too, and protesting against murderers in the police is right up their alley.

Literally a few weeks ago two white men were charged with the murder of an innocent black man (Ahmaud Arbery) in a racially motivated cold blooded attack when he was on a walk. They killed him in February and only in the first week of May were they charged.

I agree it’s extremely ignorant to think “well the police officer has been charged,time to call it off now,job is done! what else can be done !” this is problem that is still HERE.

and like a month or two ago cops broke into 26-year-old EMT Breonna Taylor's home looking for a man THEY ALREADY HAD IN CUSTODY and murdered her. Those officers still haven't been charged.

Just saw a glimpse of last night’s riots in the states .. aside from the guy with the bow and arrow .. and the guy wielding a huge sword ... both getting crushed by the out of control mobs - the most distressing thing to me was seeing a mob fighting a long line of police .. who threw exploding tear gas bombs to disperse the crowd .... then I noticed a frantic dog going absolutely crazy right in the middle of everything :(

Philando Castile - Murdered for having a broken tail light while his girlfriend was forced to watch age 32

Stephon Clark - Murdered for holding his mobile phone died age 22

Breonna Taylor - murdered after plain clothes police broke into her house as she was sleeping and fired shots into her, she was an essential worker died age 26

Of course its not,but do you really think rioting will solve it ? There needs to be an overhaul of the police and harsher sentences for crimes like this, no one has said what happened was right, but fighting violence with violence will just lead to more people getting injured or killed those policemen involved need to get the same sentences anyone would get for murder.

It's not even something to call the police over, you say "lol that one almost looks real Bob!", take the note out of circulation and tell Bob to **** off. That's it. If it looks home made you put it in the bin, if it looks professional you give it to the police the next time they pop in. They don't care who tried to use it, they're looking for the printing source (organised crime).

I literally can't think of a less serious crime than someone passing a dodgy tenner, and yet its being used to justify a death. Madness.

I'm encouraging the whole world to do the same

You were encouraging all British people to march this morning after posting a picture of a march in Peckham

[The Slim Reaper]

Are you not organising a protest march in your area? seeing as you are encouraging others to get out and march

Trafalgar Square is full...come on down. ...join the corona fun

To be fair, the government is now forcing everyone back into crowds over the coming weeks, and no one is holding Boris to the standards you're holding Adam to.

[Denver]

Apologies, my bad.



Oh.

Doesnt mean I support every single thing he did

[Cherie]

I know nobody in London and hotels are not open so I will have nowhere to stay but my time to get out and protest will come and when it does I'll use my voice and hope they listen

Day trips are a thing...

Im holding Adam to it because he is bleating about people at the beach in the corona thread and saying its fine to bunch up in this instance

When do you suggest it will be safe to go back to work?

Lol sorry but this just isn't true

There are so so so many times where it's actually vice versa that people are scared to do/say things because they fear coming across as racist in UK :bored:

Walked to Trafalgar and passed through the peaceful protests earlier as it’s only about an hour walk or so from me. You can’t really go to a park or anywhere at the moment in London without social distancing being a thing of the past, so might aswell go somewhere much more important than topping up a suntan.

You only have see the videos taken to show hundreds of officers abusing their powers and beating and even killing people for no reason what so ever, an officer sprays mace into an 8 year olds face yesterday and they shot a 13 year old in the head with a rubber bullet causing him to bleed heavily.
Definition of a sheltered & entitled mindset to classify a police force of millions in this way based on the actions of what you're seeing from barely hundreds (in a time of total chaos - which doesn't justify a lot of these, most police attacks in these clips were out of line, but something to keep in mind still). These people keep you safe and keep order on the daily. It's a tough job point blank and some do their job horribly, racistly for sure but this kind of post blaming the majority of them over a couple really unfortunate events shows no type of respect for what so many of them actually do and how many also die in the line of duty. Looking at it in a microscope pretty much and change is needed but not looking at it in the way that many are. It's a "Cops are all evil" movement in many eyes.

Being a police officer is a job with more scrutiny than thanks, who also don't get paid enough for what so many of them do. Having some corrupt, asshole cops working with them doesn't change that. The lowest common denominators are the ones to blame, not an entirety/majority. :shrug:

Not to take away from cases like George Floyd where people are horrifically, unjustly murdered on the scene, it is an AWFUL thing to see. But it's literally like blaming the protesters that want change based on the actions of the hundreds that are acting in poor judgment :nono:

I think the system needs changes on what these cops are allowed to do (like a knee to neck seems totally unnecessary) and to have better checks on the mindsets of these cops. Look deep within and have some immediate firings of cops who have questionable pasts on the job or taking a poor stand/stance right now in this time.

Well, it's not untrue. It's like when all of the abuse that goes on in Hollywood was rising to the surface, all of the people that knew things and kept quiet were complicit in the abuse. People have all kinds of reasons for staying quiet ranging from not wanting to lose their jobs, money and status to even more sinister motives but either way silence is complicity.

Not sure if this is directed at me but that is far from my only take in this thread :joker:

Just an obvious thing to consider that most police are indeed good and doing a tough, dangerous job out there where their lives are literally on the line a lot of the time. If people don't see that, that is sad as well.

That doesn't change how the officer(s) on the scene of the George Floyd case and certain other cases do a HORRIFIC job where they're not even in danger at all, which deserve justice and those cops to burn and be punished.

[Marsh.]

I think the point is that the entire system is corrupt, allowing the scum to flourish (as in most systems of power) so "there'll be loads of good people too" isn't really the point.

Like I said, the system needs change too as well as a good look into the officers' pasts and maybe an overhaul of the ones who have made questionable/poor decisions & actions while working in the past.

You can eliminate the bad seeds as soon as you see it which prob hasn't been done enough. You can try to limit it further as much as possible and that is what many are protesting and trying to change here, very rightly so.

The issue isn’t just the police, the issue are the people calling the cops. George Floyd would still be a live if the shopkeeper didn’t call the police because he ‘looked dangerous’.

When the shopkeeper pointed out to George that the money he was using was fake, he apologised immediately as he was unaware, and proceeded to return his items to the shelves as he couldn’t pay for them otherwise. There was no excuse for calling the police.

I firmly stand by ACAB, at first sure I was skeptical - how can you group all cops together like that. But all the good work is cancelled out by the fact that they choose to work for a system that is heavily flawed and built up on racial motives. They choose to work for a system that covers up its wrongdoings. They choose to work for a system that forces brutality on innocent people. There’s no forgiving that.

I doubt many of the "protesters" have a single clue about their job tbh

Bit of course would be straight on the blower to them if they needed help

[Morgan.]

Also very much worth noting that the police are twisting the protests to look more violent than they are. In every circumstance the cops have been the first to use violence or brutality.

They’ve been planting ex-cop cars that are vandalised and burnt out and hiring groups of people to dress as protesters and destroy the planted cop cars to make the protesters look dangerous.

Heck, there’s videos of the police running over protesters. If someone without a uniform did that, it would be called terrorism and they’d be locked up.

Totally disagree @ blaming the guy at the shop at all, he might've been angry that it was a shoplifting attempt thinking the guy was lying to him and wanted the police to sort it. Maybe he shouldn't have bothered calling but it was fine to do. He didn't know this cop would end up murdering George for no reason. :bored:

"Built up on racial motives" there are racial motives but can't agree with being built up on them.. and that is a bold assumption to make especially considering black cops are in the wrong too and there's black-on-white, white-on-white injustices too. "Cover up wrongdoings" I think this is the biggest thing which the police force do way too much of in support of each other and that's just wrong. When someone does wrong, they deserve punishment and justice to the victim(s)

Oddly enough that applies to two of our supposedly ‘strong , intelligent high profile women’ in the SaVILE case ..

Both ER and JSP kept ‘schtum’ .. on the matter ...

Sandra Bland killed herself though, after he wrongful arrest.

When she was shorter than the platform she supposedly hung herself from? With a PLASTIC bag? I think not.

[JerseyWins]

What about the woman who called the police on a black men and made false claims about it despite it all being filmed or the woman who murder her own child and said they were kidnapped by 2 black men?
Those are awful, racist people...

[Denver]

The thing I find the most amazing is how a group of black men protected a police officer after he was disconnected from the group of police despite these people bullying and murdering black men

People are individuals - one policeman isn't every policeman. Thank god those men at least could see that.

Yet they stood up for what was right while all this police officers stand back and watch their colleagues do terrible things and say nothing

Maybe none of their colleagues did anything terrible :shrug:

It's a shame you have such a caustic view of the police. If there were was many murderers in their ranks as you make it sound like, there would be thousands and thousands of murders at their hands.

Are you being serious?

[Tom4784]

No bother, but then maybe don’t encourage others to do something you are unable to commit to personally especially in an area you don’t live in

Utterly **** argument tbh.

Protesting takes many forms, you don't have to be marching in London to make a difference, signal boosting the issue is enough, encouraging others that can to try to make a difference is enough. Not everyone can pop down to London, not everyone can go out and protest and to make out that Adam is a hypocrite because he can't do it is nothing more than ignorant gatekeeping bull**** on your part.

[Marsh.]

Oliver suggests everyone sit back and allow the body count to increase before doing anything. :eyes:

[Tom4784]

So he’s not allowed an opinion?

It’s a bit naive and also insulting to say the majority of police are racist/Corrupt because of the small minority

He's allowed an opinion and everyone else is free to wipe their asses with it.

Jeff Goldblum's version of the Fly is obviously better, but the original has a fun unintended campiness <3

I tried to find the "help me" gif from the goldblum version. Never actually seen the original.

The Goldblum version is pretty different, I don't think it had a "help me" moment like the original.

Can we not talk about a crappy film on such an important thread

[Smithy]

Slim can you update the title, it’s actually really uncomfortable and the guy has a name/story he’s not just a statistic

Done. I actually created it to be uncomfortable and repetitive.

Numbers on the streets matter though...no point being this outraged kn a social media platform without actually going out and making up the numbers

Watching last nights UFC card and they had in memory of George Floyd with his picture at the beginning of the programme

To an extent but not necessarily true of all protest, there's been plenty of effective protests where the main clout was online. The internet is the best weapon in a protester's arsenal.

Being unable to protest in person doesn't make someone's input any less valid.

But surely you would only stir things up online to get people on the street, cause it's always numbers that count..

The poll tax riots will never be forgotten.. this, sadly will if the numbers on the streets ain't enough

Something big will happen in america soon

Antifa has declared war on the white supremacists and one congressman has pledged allegiance to Antifa

[Liam-]

Pledging to designate antifa as terrorists is trumps way of declaring war on those who disagree with him and his ilk, they’re going to call anyone not on their side antifa as a way to justify their hatred for the right side of politics

This is heading for a civil war especially when you have congressman declaring they have joined one group to whole out the other

Sadly you may be right; Antifa are basically the Tommy Robinsons of the left, but not everyone who's against Trump is Antifa.

[Liam-]

Antifa isn’t a group btw, it’s a movement, hence why it can’t be a terrorist organisation, there isn’t a structured hierarchy, it’s just something people believe in and protest for

[Denver]

But Both Trump and Tommy Robinson are racists who hate non whites

I know all you lot expect Trump to stay in power but I dont see how he will get the votes

I know he wasn’t anywhere near being the best dem for the job, but god knows how anyone can think he’s worse than Trump

I don't give the voters that much credit tbh. If Bernie had gotten in it'd be byebye Trump, but Biden? It'll be a close one, sadly ...

Antifa isn’t a group btw, it’s a movement, hence why it can’t be a terrorist organisation, there isn’t a structured hierarchy, it’s just something people believe in and protest for
Well true but it's a shorthand. There are left wing people who don't believe in Antifa's methods, and/or are parts of different movements.

But Both Trump and Tommy Robinson are racists who hate non whites
It wasn't meant as a 1:1 comparison. Tommy Robinson is a dumb thug who thinks with his fists, as are those who call themselves Antifa.

It's not just how he handled the whole reason why they are protesting but he badly handled the virus and people wont forget that with an election this year
