This serves no purpose other than to make people hate the police, even as they unintentionally tell the truth on some shootings
More than 100 people killed by police across US during three weeks of Chauvin trial
A hang-up phone call to 911 prompted Person County Sheriff’s deputies to dispatch to a home in Hurdle Mills on April 2. When they arrived, police came upon a hostage situation underway, according to law enforcement members. Shots were exchanged, and 58-year-old Jackie Cameron Capps Jr. was shot dead.
That incident in central North Carolina is one of dozens that have happened since the beginning of Derek Chauvin’s trial on March 29.
“One case – that’s one too many,” said Dr. Hunter Boehme, a criminologist and assistant professor at North Carolina Central University.
I don’t want to be shot? Let the hostage go. Don’t shoot at police. What did Dr. Boehme want to happen? The guy get away with the hostage? Kill the hostage? The police have no blame in this.
In the 22 days between the start of the trial of the former Minneapolis police officer and his conviction, 103 people were shot and killed by law enforcement, according to the Gun Violence Archive.
Maybe I’ll peruse it, but, I know what I’ll find: almost every single incident involved a criminal, probably not complying with the lawful demands of law enforcement officers. Getting violent. Fighting back. (Noon update: I’ve gone through a lot of the incidents, and most involve criminals being criminal and forcing the officer to shoot them. Many the perp had a firearm and raised it at officers, and even fired it. Some are actually suicides).
Chauvin is the first white police officer in Minnesota convicted of killing a Black citizen. Officers are often cleared of wrongdoing because the use of force is found to be justified. Data shows only 1.1% of police involved in these killings will ever be charged with murder or manslaughter.
That’s because the majority are lawful. Police do not want to do this. They are usually forced into the situation. Because people are breaking the law and being threatening.
“Community policing – we have to strive for it,” said Boehme. “We have to develop better relationships. But all those efforts can really go awash when a video [like the] George Floyd [one] emerges.”
Hey, let’s pull the police out of all these neighborhoods, see what happens. Oh, right, the same people will complain when the police they hate are not there to stop their neighbors from shooting each other.
He is currently working to implement a grassroots community police relationship model. The idea is that citizens are in charge and police work in the background instead of residents bringing up program ideas and police implementing them.
I’ll say it: crime skyrockets in black neighborhoods vs that of white, Asian, and Latino ones. Stop blaming the police because they come on 911 calls for criminal complaints.
In other countries the police find other ways to keep citizens safe
Crazy guy with a weapon?
Shoot!!!
Your comment makes no sense. Are you promoting the shooting of a “crazy guy with a weapon” or are you actually suggesting that “in other countries” they don’t shoot the crazy guy with the weapon?
John,
I have been to many countries and can assure you that the police have more weapons than here. Many countries have machine gun nest at busy intersections. If you hate it so bad here why not move, or are you afraid that other countries would not welcome a totally useless person.
Wonder if she thanked any others.
Bwaha! Lolgf
Teach: crime skyrockets in black neighborhoods vs that of white, Asian, and Latino ones.
In general, that’s true. Why do you think that is?
Teach, inexplicably churlish, proposes: Hey, let’s pull the police out of all these neighborhoods, see what happens.
Teach claims Blacks hate police. Actually, what they hate is being abused, humiliated, shot and killed by police.
We need better policing, not occupying forces. But that’s only one of our problems.
The recently enacted Covid relief bill invests billions in cities, money which can be used to upgrade police departments.
#ThankYouGeorgeFloydForDying
Bwaha! Lolgfy
In case you haven’t noticed the blacks under the direction of the feral BLM (black LIES matter) are calling to DEFUND the police. It’s on the news, Red Commenter. Even the fake news you commies watch.
“The recently enacted Covid relief bill invests billions in cities, money which can be used to upgrade police departments.” So this so-called Covid relief bill should be used to “upgrade police departments”? What has that to do with Covid relief? That’s rhetorical, we already know the name is another big fuking fascist lie like all the others. It’s really a “Payoff to Democrats Who Locked Down Their States an Watched as the Feral BLM burnt Them Down Bill.”
Thank you for “investing billions”, I’ll see how much of it I can get. I love how you commies call pissing away money “investing”. You make me laugh but thanks for “investing” in me and my “Covid Relief”. Hahahahaha.
Socialist Commenter doesn’t realize that he’s part of the problem.
There will always be grifters such as the Socialist Commenter sucking at the teat of America. Takers rather than makers. It’s always been that way.
He’s just acting out because his feral Messiah wasn’t able to steal the election from the American people. According to the Socialist Commenter, entitled, privileged grifters like himself and trump are the natural leaders of America and should be rewarded. Any other outcome is illegal!
He probably even receives Social Security payments and essentially free healthcare at taxpayer expense!
A hypocritical socialist leech sucking the blood of hard-working Americans. Crony capitalism = fascism. He will fight for his right to take your money!
N.B. – Yes, we realize he’s lying and trolling.
“There will always be grifters such as the Socialist Commenter sucking at the teat of America. Takers rather than makers. It’s always been that way.”
We are all socialists now you fascist dog. Your party has seen to that. I’m not “sucking” at any teat, least wise America’s. Last year I paid $106,000 in JUST federal income tax. How much did you pay? I pay my taxes so when it comes to Social Security and Medicare I get what I’ve spent a lifetime contributing to or is that a “grift” too? Only BLM and illegals get free healthcare at taxpayer expense! The rest of us pay for it one way or the other. Don’t you? Don’t you get SS and Medicare? Why are you entitled to what you’ve paid for but not the rest of us?
“Crony capitalism = fascism. He will fight for his right to take your money!” Crony capitalism as you call it is precisely what your fascist party is doing with every industry in America. You “team” up with millionaires and billionaires to fuk us the working stiffs but when I figure out how to use your system against you you get all high and mighty and suddenly you’re an avowed capitalist.
I did not create The Covid Relief Act, you did. I did not create the previous two multi trillion dollar pay-outs, you did. I’m just smart enough to take advantage of the financial opportunities your fuked up leaders afford me. Then you get all pissed and mad when it is your team that gives us the money.
Too bad sucker. My company will now take advantage of every dime and government handout we can legally qualify for. Why shouldn’t I?
Your BLM brotha’s are full of hate just like you Red commentator. “BLM protesters in New York reacted to the Derek Chauvin verdict by harassing diners and demanding white owners of restaurants “get the f**k out†of the city.
Unruly protests broke out in numerous major cities last night despite Chauvin being convicted on all counts.
A video shows BLM agitators yelling at diners, “Get the f**k out of New York! We don’t want you here.†“We don’t want your money! We don’t want your f**king taquerias owned by white men!†the crowd chants, before another demonstrator suggests that the mob “take 30 per cent†of their income.
The group later marched across Manhattan Bridge while chanting “one solution, revolution†as they carried a banner displaying bloody hand prints and the words “abolish the NYPD.â€
When all your friends and all those you support are racists it’s a pretty good bet you’re a racist too Red contributor. You are the biggest racist on the net other than the SPLC and BLM. Oh, and Sharpton.
You have to be the dumbest White man on the fukin planet!
And Blacks commit over 50% of all homicides while being only 13% of the population. Their main victims-other Blacks. Those lives don’t seem to matter, only the ones shot by White policemen, usually while resisting arrest. Why do you think that is?
Do you see any difference between street crime and officers of the state killing citizens? Why does the killing of citizens by the state seem to arouse such furor?
As a gedanken experiment, imagine that police selectively stopped cars with christian symbols (fishes, crosses) for cracked tail lights, air fresheners, excessive noise etc, in an effort to combat child abuse. Further imagine that the officer treated the driver and passengers with disdain if not outright contempt and then found the driver had an unpaid parking ticket. If the driver complained and tried to drive off, would it be OK to shoot her?
Is execution the penalty for resisting arrest? Or fleeing?
Black males kill black males, and white males kill white males.
The point of BLM is that Black Lives Matter, even those young black men who are murdered by other young black men.
Rimjob, maybe at least you could try to educate yourself before sharing your ignorance.

Nah, just stay ignorant.
