Nothing to do with Trump

Then why doesnt he shut up and leave them to it instead of crying about it. So much winning.

Although he does have an opinion on the unrest and as POTUS , he would be expected to make a comment .

  Saying that , he isnt in charge or have any authority over localised policing .

(BTW , you probably meant to write *whining* , instead of "winning" , good news is that you still have time to change it by editing it )

Are you saying that Trump cannot send in troops by declaring national emergency , and the states have to approve. Sure about that?

Sending in federal troops while being rebuffed by local authorities would be presented in the US Dem loving press as the actions of a dictator...something he is already accused of on a regular basis...

Dude...you don't get it, do you?

Let's say, he had a knife and the cops where shouting at him to drop it...

a) why does he have to admit to have a knife? The cops allegedly shouted at him to drop it! So it was in plain sight!

b) If he had a knife at him at the time of the shooting...why was he shot in the back?

He was walkinhg away, as in NOT POSING A THREAT!

c) if they found a knife on the floor of the car LATER...then what and why were they shouting at him to drop it?

If it was IN THE CAR, he didn't have it on him!

 

You are making NO SENSE!

Could have dropped the knife when he was shot.

I do, I really really do, but if they want it to continue for political purposes because they believe the chaos helps them, let them have it and let them sleep in the bed they made - all while showing everyone who they really are and their scorched earth policy. 

[Mama Noodle]

Anyway, the people the kid shot were a real classy bunch. A registered sex offender with crimes against a minor. Skateboard guy has a record of battery and repeat domestic abuse. Arm Hamburger pistol guy has a history of being intoxicated with a gun - which is ironic because that means it’s likely illegal for him to even own one.

Hey only needed to listen to thee police everything would be ok, but Noooooo can't do that, lets burn the country down and destroy more lives....

And the 17 year old going interstate with a long gun and out after curfew?

 

Perhaps he should be learning at school. Instead he will be in jail. Trump supporters do tend to end there.

On top of them being violent people and sex offender/paedo - they were out offer curfew and tossing molotovs, bashing cars, and burning business’s. These are the people you are choosing to defend. 
 

I can not fathom how you justify that, but up to you.

And the shooter was out after curfew, had no idea who the people he shot were. Any evidence the people she shot were doing anything? 

 

Thought not. Its not hos job to be law enforcement. This will not end well for him.

Whats the matter you don't want to wait for the investigation that  holds everyone accountable !

Again the story doesn't mention Mr. Trump,stop bashing and trolling. God knows there are plenty of threads here you can participate in that have his name mentioned!

[Sheryl]

A couple of baiting posts have been removed. I could not even begin to deal with the bickering ones as that is pretty much the whole thread.

 

What you all get out of this bickering is beyond me, but if you must do it please keep it civil.

It’s not that I can’t wait imo the folks that are getting shot don’t feel they are getting a square deal I agree I also know the cops have a dangerous job be that as it may be the people must feel that the police are beeing held accountable when the get it wrong that would go a long way in healing race relations I as an older white American stand in solidarity with the BLM movement that doesent men that I condone looting or violence it means I stand with justice and fairness as far as trump he fans the flames of racism it’s obvious he feels the division he’s creating helps him with re election that’s not good for the country I will continue to call it out

White police murdering Black people.

It surely has to stop one day.

Not while there is an idiot in the White House.

I personally would amend your opening comment by saying it as... white police killing black Americans who aren't posing any life threatening danger to anyone around them.

 

There are times when the police may have to shoot or use other lethal force, and people of whatever race end up dead for justified reasons. But too many of these cases with black Americans leading to public protests aren't cases where lawful police policy warrants the use of lethal force.

Perhaps there could be some program in minority neighborhoods to educate them on what to do if stopped by a police officer?

There are... It's a thing countless black parents tell their children these days.... in hopes of avoiding having them killed by police. Almost like the bird & bees ritual.

 

But perhaps there also should be some program to teach American police to stop killing black people who aren't posing any life threatening danger to those around them...

There is... it's called lengthy prison sentences if found guilty. People are acting like there is no prosecution going on.
