I just want to say that, I'm white. The worst 'crime' I have ever been charged with was operating a motor vehicle at 50 mph in a 25 mph zone (a 45 > 25 speed trap). The worst crime I have ever committed and didn't get caught doing was purchasing a quarter ounce of marijuana from a friend who deals for another friend…

The SCOTUS ruled that a police officer can only shoot a fleeing suspect if the said suspect is armed and pose immediate danger to the general public.

So no. Just because you are running, doesn't mean the cops can shoot. Otherwise, shows like "Cops" would be very different. I mean why bother running through hedges when…

Seriously? You want the article to focus on innocent white people being killed too (I dunno, maybe you feel left out?), and use this as a dismissal of the fact that human beings that aren't white are being killed for no reason. The implication of course being that white people's lives (and deaths) are just as…

Funny how the newspaper article didn't mention that about Walter Scott.

Actually, both men served in the Coast Guard. Guess how many stories mention that the victim served compared to those mentioning the murderer served?

Holy Fuck you're right. Maybe he was running towards a loaded cannon. Better put 8 rounds in him just be sure.

Just two things of note

Because I know that someone in the comments will talk about how dangerous it is to be a police officer, just wanting to come home alive, etc.

It is more dangerous to be employed as a landscaper in America than it is to be employed as police officer. This is a fact that is true and is verifiable.

I want nice shoulders. Not this muscley, but hat tip Nick. That is a shitton of work you have done.

it's impossible to understate how poorly this stuff reflects on the US to outsiders. a while ago I had someone from Kenya ask me about all the cop shootings going on back home, saying how horrible it is. you know things are bad when someone from Kenya shows you sympathy for shit happening in your home country.

If i had a body like Nick Jonas I would literally (I am using the word in its original meaning) never wear a shirt and I live in a place with a terrible climate.

“...Vili Fualaau, meanwhile, discusses his bouts with alcoholism, depression and why he believes the system failed him while he was still a minor.”

LOLOLOL But I mean like.

One thing the republicans are better at than democrats is language. Patriot Act, pro-life, dismemberment abortion, religious freedom, big government, illegals — and these are only a few of the rhetorical manipulations they have come up with. Why can’t democrats do better? Pro-choice, single payer, climate change —…

It’s like the letters underneath the fingernails of the dead girls in “Twin Peaks”!

Let’s just say we in the medical profession have treated countless young men for stabbing and gunshot wounds who were ALL standing on a corner, minding their own business when they were attacked without provocation. Literally, 100% of them.

....mother of god.

She must have been a classmate of Jenna Maroney at the Royal Tampa Academy of Dramatic Tricks.

This article is such bullshit. First, it’s titled

oh my god the next year and a half is going to be so annoying
