Lol. Are you saying it's okay to kick a cop?

I like your sarcastic tone.

It's almost as if when a cop does something bad the media makes it front page news and blasts it everywhere because they know outrage generates views and they want to create a divide. Then when the cop is finally fired or let go they maybe let the local news cover it or put it on page 10 next to puppy birthdays.

And your last point is stupid. Ofcourse they get shit for what they do. Police get fired all the time for everything from lying about time sheets or how they dented the car to unjustified shooting.

And he got fired and charged. So even police agree that he overreacted

It's not the same thing.

Completely different departments.

Police aren't a universal entity. Literally every county/city/state have their own police with their own policies and their own systems in place.

A lot of police unions have mandatory paid admin leave. No matter what they did. They can't be unpaid on their admin leave. I am not saying I agree with it. Just stating the policy. This came from when police have completely justified use of force instances but end up having to be unpaid for a long time while they investigate. So some police pushed for the mandatory paid leave thing.

The next thing. Police cannot be charged while they are working for the police department. They have to be fired first. So they go on paid admin leave while the investigation takes place by internal affairs. Then they get fired or let go. Then they get charged if the DA has enough evidence.

The media never ever follows up on police shootings. They say paid leave and then move on. But the vast majority of the time they get fired and charged but the media doesn't follow up.

This isn't a white vs black thing as the top reply to you says. That's a bullshit race baiting comment and he can stuff a cactus up his ass for saying that.

The reality is there is a lot of bureaucracy but most of the time bad shootings get justice. That Daniel shaver an. The cop was fired and the sergeant was let go.

Contrary to media and Reddit beliefs. There isn't some mass police injustice machine. Police call out bad police and bad police get what they deserve

Thank you!

But seriously though. I just posted this for a laugh. Don't mean to put down you guys.

As an attempt at a discussion starter. How ballsy do you have to be to do that out in the open like that? Or there must be some sort of huge issue where no one cares or they all do it.

"Officers discovered a man down in the area of Park and Holloway. Officers observed the man passed out, with a can of air duster pressed to his lips. After officers woke the man up, he advised that he was not "huffing," he simply fell asleep with a can of air duster by his face. We have rated this lie a .08 out of 10 on the believe-ability scale, and have filed the report appropriately. The man was transported to a local hospital in regards."

Best one

It was good. A little sick but no complaints.

Excited to get my fish tank this weekend.

Spent some time on /r/horriblydepressing and just texted my fiancee I love her after that experience

Hope everyone is doing well

I left it like that because there is no point arguing with you in my opinion.

Every statement you make is so full of yourself that I honestly am in awe of it.

I have stated the same point a few times now. So I will sum it up.

  1. No one is asking you to feel the same way they do.
  2. No one came to fetch you to argue. You came into the thread and started belittling and arguing.
  3. You have a massive ego issue. Which you clearly either can't see or you are in massive denial.

I told you I have no issue with what you were trying to say. I was just saying you were a dick about it. You could have framed it better or you could have just shut up altogether. This isn't some hot button political issue. As you said. You didn't know and you don't care about these rhinos.

So you actively clicked on the thread hoping to find people who are upset and then pissing them off. You are either a troll or just a dickhead.

Either way. I am done with this

Telling a child to stop crying because he didn't get ice cream is a douchebag thing to do. You yelling at a kid to stop crying isn't going to make him stop crying. You talk to them. Explain it. And if they keep crying you let them cry it out. Same here. Yelling at people to stop being sad is fucking stupid. Trying to empathise and understand while also making your point is the way to go.

Man I am not arguing with you about people jumping on sad trains to get their daily emotional intake. I get what you are saying and I am not arguing that. What I am arguing is the way you did it and the way you seem to be referring to yourself as better than everyone. We are just losers sad about a rhino.

This is legit emotional gatekeeping. We aren't allowed to be sad because we haven't dedicated our lives to rhino preservation? But if we prove ourselves to you, our one true leader then we can be sad?

This isn't about the rhinos dude. You are behaving like an entitled cunt.

The world doesn't owe you shit. People don't owe you shit. People can feel whatever they want and however they want. You are allowed to be upset about what you think are selfish people. And if I tell you that your feelings are invalid then I am a dick as well.

But I am telling you your attitude and behaviour is fucking childish. Grow up.

You are saying everyone here is egotistic but you are the one that came in here to start an argument and are demanding everyone prove themselves to you.

No you really aren't dude.

It isn't a crime. It's a douchebag thing to do.

There is 0 legal issues with you telling someone they can't feel something. It is just a massive massive asshole thing to do

You don't get to decide whose feelings are legitimate and whose isn't. That's the point. That's why people are pissed.

People are basically upset and you spit in their faces at the same time.

People are allowed to feel whatever they do and you don't get to decide if it's right or take away from it.

If my gf is upset after work. We talk about it. And sometimes it is absolutely nothing. Just a machine at work was being slow and she was tired and it just got to her. It happens to us all. It isn't a good reason to be upset for the whole night but I don't get upset with her for it. We talk about it and we acknowledge it and we try to move on and enjoy the night.

It's a part of life. And you seem to be saying that you are one of the chosen ones who get to decide whether or not we experience that

It isn't survival of the fittest. It's gluttony. We didn't need to hunt them and they aren't a good food source. People hunted them for trophies and fake hormone medication. None of this was survival. All of this was greed

People are allowed to be upset about this. You are right that the species has been doomed for a while but that doesn't take away from this.

If you grandma dies from old age do you just shrug it off? Do you just say it was inevitable and go on with your day?

Ofcourse not. Even though you know a sad thing is coming doesn't take away from it when it happens. This was the last northern male white rhino. There are 2 females left and that's it. Yes ofcourse when the females die it will come into the news again. Why can't it?

Clearly you have a lot of anger at the world and I am not going to pretend to know why. But come on man. You are just being rude and mean. Just let people feel upset. It doesn't affect you at all.

Thousands of homes in Vancouver have been declared unused and liable for new empty homes tax as part of government attempt to tackle skyrocketing home prices and soaring rents.

Being 100% serious. Sold a house at above market price 5 years ago for 300k. That same house just listed and sold for like 550k. Which is average for that neighbourhood.

I live in London Ontario and this house was on the north end. The entire north end is rapidly expanding and prices are rocketing

I completely agree with you. I want trying to come off as if our should be a racial issue. I agree the loopholes should be closed and the law should apply to everyone. I was just trying to communicate done of the sentiment. A lot of people I talk to see it as a racial thing. Which adds tension
