And that’s a perfectly fine rationale for the #BlueLivesMatter crowd.

I live in a ‘burb of boston that’s like 96% white and has very low crime, so the cops have fuck all to do except harass people walking on the sidewalk that they think look “suspicious” (read - non-white) and respond to MV stops. I also live on a fairly major road, so someone gets pulled over in front of my house a few…

It’s sad to see that the Milwaukee Bucks released a statement completely supporting their player on the same day that the NFL owners released a dumb new institutionalized policy that tells their players they have to support the police-sanctioned abuse and murders of black Americans

That was my first thought when I saw the 4th or 5th unit arrive on scene, wow. Why? Because he was black and taller than the officer? To me that shows their racism as much as the rest of the video did. Mr. Brown should be in line for a large check from the Milwaukee PD. I commend Mr. Brown for keeping his cool with…

How many cop cars is too many cop cars for a parking violation? Because they had like six cars worth of cops out there. Probably would have been easier to move the car (thus freeing those precious spaces up for the Walgreen’s patrons who needed them at that moment) if the whole parking lot wasn’t filled with cop cars.

That’s not fair. If they don’t want to be tased in public, they can go to the locker room to be tased.

A) LOL...they are remorseful that there is footage of the incident...that is it.

If parking across two spots in a parking lot is a taser-able offense, then there are a whole lot of Mercedes Benz owners out in Los Angeles that are long overdue for a thorough tasing.

More B than A, much more.

No they explicitly state they were entirely honest about everything.

“We promise in the future to only abuse non-famous Black men, and we won’t lie about our interactions when they’ve been recorded.”

In a related story, the NFL has just passed a rule saying that all of their players must agree to be tased for any reason or face fines.

“I’m very sorry that you caught me doing shit I wasn’t supposed to do, and I vow to never again get caught doing that particular shit.”

Wonder if Milwaukee was trying to get ahead of it because: A. it’s a really shitty thing to have happened and they are remorseful about it, or B. he’s a basketball player for the Bucks and it was going to come out anyway?

Fuck you for being right, and fuck our country for being wrong.

Milwaukee Police Chief Alfonso Morales held a presser this evening and released a statement apologizing for the unnecessary force used on Brown.

Not to be pedantic, but technically “being black” is a reason.

Almost murders someone, gets a psych hold. If he was black, he would have gotten the Desmond Marrow treatment. Textbook white privilege working here.

Finally, a holding call we can all support
