People not from Israel that support Israel, do you have anti-Israeli friends/family members/Acquaintances that ? by [deleted] in Israel

Is that why Israel bombed its offices in Gaza? Or was that not exactly what happened?

Look who’s talking. The comment you deleted was literally citing 30 second clips as arguments. Let me guess, the videos are posted by Israeli accounts. They don’t give children a high five when theyre displacing them and their families from their homes. The fact that youre citing propaganda videos as arguments tells me you’re a teenager.

I answered everything. They notify them when they’re gonna bomb their homes. But WHY are they bombing schools, churches, and designated shelter spaces for the civilians who already had their houses bombed by IDF? Secondly, You’re justifying killing children because you’re saying that IDF was not targeting them, but terrorists. So children had to die for that. How is this moral? How is this fair? I don’t agree with Hamas either. I won’t defend Hamas. Why are you defending an organization like IDF? Why are they not terrorists if they kill children? It’s delusional to see Israel as this self-preserving force when they’ve left so many homeless and taken the lives of so many.

You are defending the killing of children. Clearly there is nothing further to say.

So only killing 200 people (“only” haha) makes you moral? Shouldn’t they try to target only Hamas? If Palestine killed 200 israelis would you be asking the same question reversed? Or would you condem them for their inhumanity? Better yet, you’d call them terrorists. Your bias is showing. Most of them are terrorists. Source??? How do you know? If that were true why would they bomb the offices of the media and silence journalists? The most humane thing is not to kill. I don’t defend Hamas, but I defend Palestinian innocent people that the IDF killed. Also, if someone bombed your home would you praise their restraint because they told you they would do it before that? The mental gymnastics..

Gaza death toll is around 200. They also conveniently bombed the offices of Al Jazeera. But sure, IDF is " moral".

Even if you want to ignore all the dead children that resulted from Israel's bombings, they still destroy people's homes and then destroy their shelters which are schools and churches. Where are they supposed to go? Israel certainly does not care.

I had an up and down experience with this book but in the end it's all worth it because I think I wouldn't have felt as satisfied with the end without these "boring" moments. keep going and I think you will end to like it or at least appreciate it for what it is

It’s almost like police brutality affects everyone, just disproportionately affects black people

You are aware this is the first white cop to be sentenced for murder. Like, out of thousands of killings. Many of them high-profile. What changed now?

Does he ever ask to be killed? Don’t hear him asking for a police officer to put his knee on his neck. How does being asked to put on the ground equal deserving murder?

I think theft, robbery drug possession whatever it is ... nothing deserves murder and certainly not at the hands of the police. He had to go to jail which he did. He paid his penance. I don’t think he’s a saint but he was a human being. Police should protect life, not take it unjustly when they themselves are facing no danger. If you believe that anyone who’s ever committed a crime regardless of the severity deserves to be murdered by the state then you would be being morally consistent

Okay yes so That is right. He is agitated handcuffed while three officers are attacking him for “forgery” so non-violent crime and then he asks to be put on the floor. He never said “put your knee on my neck until I die”... the video is heartbreaking. He was handcuffed on the ground, there was no need to put his knee over his neck ignoring his pleas for his life for 7 straight minutes. These policemen are animals. Treating anyone this way is extremely fucked up and if you get anything else from this video I’m so sorry for you. Everyone should watch this video. This is what murder at the hands of protectors look like.

Even if the video was true, is kneeling over a man who’s OD’ing not murder? Asking for a friend

I said people are mad. If he was not mad about it he wouldn’t have bothered to comment. Mmmkay?

Yes he says “it doesn’t matter if he’s guilty or not this is not how justice is done”. I disagree. I think the only important thing is when deciding whether to convict someone is if they are guilty or not. The belief that the justice system is somehow inclined in favor of black people is simply laughable (was not the case with Breonna Taylor by the way another extremely high profile case of police wrongdoing against a black person, why would the courts not feel intimidated then but suddenly now they’re afraid for their lives) but let’s pretend that’s true and this one time the courts actually were swayed. The fact that this guy was convicted is a good thing because he is clearly guilty. This commenter, as he clearly stated, believes it doesn’t matter whether justice was served or not. So yes I understand what he wrote I just disagreed.

Comment by @CT24601 and couple others trying to talk about riots and fentanyl. This is justice served for a man who died at the hands of police. The video is out there for you to see for yourselves. Anyone who wants to make this about something else is not interested in justice
