a grown man putting his hands on a child is child abuse, and there is never acceptable provocation for that, so says every law in the civilized world.

Well, you can’t be almost certain because that’s an oxymoron.

I also agree that some black people are racist, because black people are people, and people can be racist. However, I saw no signs of any black racists in this video, only white ones. I saw no white people being harmed, only black people. That is why we are discussing racists who happen to be white harming people who…

So it didn’t happen once so now that’s the rule to go by? You do understand that there are different people and personalities behind a badge, right?

“Someone doesn’t agree with me?! TROLLLLLLLL!”

Not trolling. Legitimate concern here. Your sentiment is how hate crimes happen, but sadly you think it’s the other way around.

I never said, nor implied, “oh poor white people.” My point was that you cannot fight or argue racism with more racism, whether it’s under the privileged and entitled “I’m an ally” guise of “white guilt” or “white privilege” or not and expect the [assumed on my part] message of “everyone should be equal” conveyed. It…

I find it troubling that people with your similar opinion can make generalizations based purely on race, but when they hear someone else do it against any non-white race they lose their minds and rally the angry mob.

I’ve seen this defense somewhere before...“I can do a quadruple backflip on my bike...I just don’t want to because I’m tired right now.”

So everyone is supposed to guess that you’re white...I get it. So if a black person had said the same thing we’re all supposed to assume he wouldn’t have moved, or worse, they’d gotten arrested/shot.

You are aware that cops get shot too, right?

Uhh, he didn’t even mention race in his initial comment...you seemed to be immediately triggered by the race card because race is where you wanted to take it.

...aaaand let the witch hunt begin. Any unfavorable comment or differing opinion can be torpedoed by one simple little indefensible accusation of “You’re racist!” and suddenly you’re the one fighting the good fight no matter what.

The you would probably get thrown to the ground and handcuffed as well. I don’t understand why people think it’s a good idea to yell at and piss off police officers, whether they’re in the right or not. Cops are people too and they are subject to the same aggravation as anyone else...except they have tools and laws…

You’re going a little far on this one now...what’s really the issue here? Did someone do something to you?

Loling hard at this...And today’s Internets winner is!...

Oh man I want to hear more about your experiences with this. I would LOVE getting those calls while on my shift. Was there like a rule against rubbing it in their face (while still staying professional)? I would have a plethora of canned one-liners that twisted the knife whenever a cheater was pleading with me.

Shoot the hostage.

That kid has a cannon on his shoulder if it went *through* the TV! Get him on a sportsball team immediately!

Contextual in that it was meant as a response to what you assumed is a white person?
