Quote:This is what boggles my mind, you are for a rational discussion. Now, people have acknowledged there are SOME fanatics who like to incite violence by using the BLM movement as a facade. This has been reiterated over and over again which im certain you have seen at some point.

 

We are on day 3 of this conservation, and other than one sentence with you barely acknowledging police brutality exists, you are still under this notion that people who have a issue with rouge cops all of a sudden hate all policemen, which in turn, you feel like all are being labeled as pigs which is not the case.

 

I dont know if you have blocked me because I have asked the same question now twice which I will ask again.

 

What do you expect people refer to rouge cops as who commit murders, misconduct, etc.? 

 

First of all, I don't block anybody.  We may disagree politically or otherwise, but I am of the belief that everyone is entitled to their opinion and are free to express it.

 

Refer to my comment to boudreaumw above.  That outlines part of my not speaking much about rouge cops or police brutality.  Yes it does exist.  Is it common?  No.  Is that what the real problem is?  No.

 

There are bad cops out there and they do get weeded out.  There is a division in every major police department commonly called IA (Internal Affairs).  That is the proper procedure to use if a citizen has a complaint against a police officer.  Trust me, they will weed out the bad officers.  In most cases, if an officer is reported to IA it will have an effect on his career, and if he is found to be in the wrong he faces penalties including suspension or up to and including arrest and being fired.

 

As far as the answer to your question, of course if a cop is found guilty of murder I really don't care how people refer to him.  The fact of the matter is, there is a pretty large segment of the population that refer to all police officers as "pigs".  In a case such as this thread those people say that they meant "only the bad ones".  And before people start asking me to "name usernames", I'm just using this thread as an example.

 

Quote:As for the bolded part im going to brutality honest here. 

 

I believe in my heart when you initially saw this thread you anticipated seeing (not exactly celebration) but some sort of "support" of the cops being murdered. 

 

When you made your first reply , I hoped you were not intentionally seeking out those type of responses, but it has become clear to me that you were, and when you were met with sharp criticism, you simply could not be honest about your intent. 

 

As for the rest of this response, I literally posted the other things BLM protest about. Feel free to unblock me to see my posts and click on one of the links. 

 

In all honesty, you are wrong regarding my intent with that post.  I posted that because I was angry about what happened and angry about what this country has become.  There are some people out there and likely some on this board that just hate cops.  I get it.
