So OP's stats are a lie? Refute those or you have zero credibility.
I still think you're a trollin though. You can't truly believe what you say.
Blacks are not hunted by police. These politicized cases all include blacks being baaaaad boys and girls. Show me evidence of systemic attacks against peaceful blacks by white cops.
I know you're roping me in, but I'll play along for a bit.
You can be happy to have the state execute people for committing felonies and resisting arrest, I’m not. But I’m not a fascist so, you know.
Why can't black people stop being fucking criminals?
Even better, how about everyone just stops committing crimes? It’s that easy right? We’ll just all agree, tomorrow, no more crime. Problem solved, job done. Should we announce this with a series of commercials or do you think a pamphlet in the mail is the way to go?
The exact numbers aren’t the problem. The problem is black people don’t trust the system. When a black person gets shot, they don’t trust that the cop was just and when it’s not just, they know they can’t trust the system to provide justice. This distrust is earned.
There’s also the problem of right wingers who have abandoned all skepticism of authority, unless it’s a democrat. You guys assume the cop must have been in the right. Black people assume the cop must have been wrong.
There’s a tight rope of skepticism of authority but trust in our institutions that must be walked and we have completely fallen off.
Ok so let me get this straight.
When it comes to police brutality, the numbers don’t matter because the real issue is a distrust of the system.
But when it comes to election fraud and voter ID, you want to show me numbers and tell me that public distrust of system doesn’t matter.
And GTFO with this “right wingers don’t question authority” bullshit. Have you been asleep for the last 13 months, or have you forgotten that a politically particular portion of the country is ripshit angry over the ongoing authoritarian dictatorial COVID restrictions and their assault on our civil liberties?
I want you to get smarter so it’s worth my time to tear your arguments apart.

Nobody is happy when there is a death
The idea that officers are going out with an intention to execute people (per your words) is wholly dishonest and the data shows that the use of lethal force is a significant exception to the rule
But if your perspective is that, then there honestly isn’t much that can be done to change that opinion because it’s highly anchored with highly emotionally charged reasoning

Comparing it to voter fraud is clever. The first and most obvious problem with it is your buddies just spent three pages mocking me and you’re reminding everyone that they’ve made the exact same feelings based argument on voter fraud. I’m willing to skip that part though.
Let’s just cut through the fat of this, when black people say they don’t trust the police, that they are scared to interact with them, that they don’t trust the system that is meant to keep us all safe, I believe them. When you say you don’t trust the voting machines, that you are scared elections are being stolen, that we are now a banana republic, I simply don’t believe you.
I think it’s part sour grapes, part delusion and part political strategy.
With all of that said, I would still support some measures to make elections more secure. You just don’t want the measures I want because I would make it easier for everyone to legally vote. You only want election security if it makes it harder for people to vote.
That was a good post by you. Aside from the “masks are fascism” nonsense. I don’t think most of your teammates are capable of a post that good.

There are plenty of right wingers happy to have one less criminal alive. You just choose not to see it.

While it goes against the due process for which the Throbber most certainly will die, the Throbber sheds zero tears for the overwhelming number of people (white or black) who put themselves in the position to be shot by their own choices and decisions. Not particularly 'happy' the knife-wielding lowlife is dead but most certainly happy that police have the authority to save the life of another human when threatened.
Chick pulls a knife and goes after another human - total disregard for the potential worst case scenario. She now dead. Who cares? Her freedom of choice, her outcome. Happy for the gal who survived and otherwise may not have had the police hesitated in using deadly force.
You choose not to see the life saved and are happy another black person was shot to further the race narrative.
That is so stupid, I can't take the bait, I'm sorry.
Do you think cops should kill people for resisting arrest?
Why yes of it warrants dealt force. Are you actually this stupid? You never cease to amaze.
Police work isn't pretty when people resist. It never "looks" good. Video has changed perception but its still an ugly process. Rodney King occurred but what happened to him was exactly what the training of the day prescribed. I'll let you know when using violence looks good.
Feelings are not part of the process. I thinK TKS needs to sign up to be a cop we'll see how he feels after a couple years on the job. Probably can't pass a background check though.

A segment of the population fearing the state because of the color of their skin is a very big deal. Keep mocking it though, I enjoy winning.

When vigilante law enforcement comes back in vogue, all bets are off on how many 'mostly peaceful' criminals die.
Bang bang, motherfucker, when untrained in conflict management Joe Accountant starts taking policing matters into his own hands.
And you're "winning". You keep kidding yourself in your trust fund/theoretical echo chamber.
And she wanted to be an astronaut
Trying to lose the white vote is a bold strategy
