Hey ma, if you could see me now (see me now)

I can’t tell if you’re arguing with me or what. I’m pro-law enforcement because I believe the vast majority do their jobs and do it well and are under appreciated. But I also believe there are bad cops that target and use excessive force unnecessarily. Whether it is out of malice, racism, fear, lack of training, etc.,…

Do you expect the cops to not show up in riot gear? So when it turns into a riot (because it always does), even more of them get sent to the hospital?

No such thing as a violent protest. That is called a riot. Your first amendment right is to peacefully protest.

Don’t worry, all of those same “protestors” that are burning shit to the ground are improving their city; those same people will be back someday to rebuild, to show that they really made a difference. Just like in Baltimore.

In this case, “this” was a black police officer shooting an armed person who threatened the police officer. At least that is what the video evidence is claimed to show. Perhaps “this” that should stop is the rush to judgement - based on obviously b.s. claims by family of criminals.

No this bullshit looting, and rioting, hidden behind protest needs to stop.

If you riot you need to be shot.

Just a wee bit of money and internal politics.

Sheesh, finally got that monkey off our backs.
Pretty cool, guys. It was pretty cool.
Getting some dignity back won’t hurt either.

I’m totally cool lying to a foreign government, especially a corrupt one. His allegiance is to the stars and bars, not crooked ass Brazil.

All those people in the post last night saying that this was making Brazil look bad were something else. Yeah, there are certainly issues with police in Brazil, but they’re smart enough to know that you don’t go after famous Americans unless you’re 99 percent sure you’ve got a case.

Evidence includes the following facts:

wait, you think Brazil is the one looking bad here? lol ok

well once they got the USOC involved... and then the FBI... that also involved authorities of Brazil. So yeah, they have much better things to focus on than investigating a crime that most likely didn’t happen, which is why these assholes should be punished for making up a story that wasted multiple resources form…

If Lavillenie had gotten 6.03 on his 3rd attempt, and both missed on 6.08 he would have lost (based on missing 2 attempts at 6.03 compared to 1 miss for Da Silva). He had nothing to lose by going for 6.08.

Congratulations!!!

Congrats!

Are you watching pole vaulting? Holy crap!

Were the rumours of World Cup stadiums from two years ago brig now completely empty and used as bus parking lots true? Not being combative, I really would like to know since there’s this perception that if you host either the WC or Olympics, quite often the billions spent is not well served to the people.

You’re an idiot, I say that as someone who spent 7 years thinking London 2012 was going to be shit, horrid to be in London for, a waste of money etc etc and it turned out to be the most amazing 2 weeks my home city has ever seen. It also kick started development in a part of the city that got none, the transport…
