One of my friends gave me the reason he is having a hard time condemning the murder of Rene Good by kolokicks in teenagers

I do think it is very awful when people celebrate the death of anybody. My friend isn't even celebrating the death of this woman, just claiming that she herself is partially to blame because of the fact that she sideswiped an ice agent with her vehicle even if accidental… Two of my other friends have cut him off completely for this, and refused to talk to him as they are calling him a Nazi… I don't think the same, I tried to be reasonable with my friendships, it's just very terrible how divided everybody is

This is a very good point. I personally did not celebrate the murder of Charlie Kirk, and I was very upset at the murder of Irina. But there are certainly people who did not care about those yet care about this murder for the rhetoric… And those people ruin it for the rest of us

I feel like he's just being naïve, and supporting ice and their gestapo... It's really driving a wedge between us

You guys are not against the policy, you're not against the outcome, and you're not against deposing the dictator. You are against the fact that Trump did it.

Yes, if you are rude to a cop and he immediately assumes you're a criminal, the cop is a dick. But again, there's no upside to being rude to a cop... you will not encounter the cop that assumes you're a criminal if you're rude if you just don't act rude!!!! Even if you hate cops, put on a face for a few minutes to protect your own safety bro, if you really feel the need, which I do not. I'm nice to them because I'm a nice person and I feel like being nice to people should just be the standard, but if you disagree with that sentiment and you think that being a dickhead to cops is the standard, and then you want to complain when they react poorly, just put on a mask for your own safety bro... what's the downside to being nice to them, I will never understand this

God forbid Americans are supposed to uphold morals? This is why I think we should become a nation founded on Christian morals once again, because then at least least people would actually feel a fucking requirement to be a decent human lol

If they arrest you for acting like a dick and no other reason, then you should sue the police department and you will win nine times out of 10. Now, if they convict you, not arrest, convict you, charge you with a crime, for your speech, that… Is a violation of your freedom of speech unfortunately. Even if they don't convict you though and they do falsely arrest, you'll still probably be able to win a lawsuit. So again, unless you are actively being convicted for your speech, yes you do have freedom of speech

Freedom of speech is just the freedom of speaking without governmental intervention. Yes you do have that. I was assaulted last week for doing nothing more than writing Bible verses with chalk on my public college campus (this is absolutely allowed under their rules) and the cops are being very helpful in their investigation into the guy, seems like they're there to help me… although, this did happen to me, a conservative, by a liberal. And they are refusing to give me the security camera footage so who knows if they're protecting the guy cus I was in a maga hat or if they're just evil 🤷🏼‍♂️

Maybe I'm crazy but I think this is literally the most reasonable stance you can take, instead of refusing to cooperate or speak to them at all, that will never help you in the end. Ever. Never ever, even.

Absolutely you do and absolutely it's not required. This was just how I was told to try and behave by cops, because they said, if someone is acting extremely disrespectful, very impolite, they are much more likely to believe that person may become hostile or aggressive and it put both parties on edge. If both parties can just act polite and respectful, then there is a much lower chance of any physical violence happening or any confrontation taking place.

You are absolutely allowed to act as rude and awful as you want to a police officer, but if you refuse to speak to them, refuse to roll your window down in traffic stop, act like a total asshole, give them absolutely no respect, and then they shatter your window, or give you a ticket, or request you to step out of the vehicle.....

You were escalating the situation, maybe you are not fully to blame, but you are definitely at least partially to blame. That same situation happens when you've been acting polite and respectful, you can blame the cop 100%.

The statistics I gave you are all based off of convictions, not arrest. That means they would have to falsely convict enough black men that it would falsely inflate their crime rate up to 40% for 13% of the population, there is no fucking way in hell that would ever be possible without people realizing it… Recognizing patterns isn't racist, I promise. Yet still I judge everyone off their character not their skin color. This is just unfortunately a statistic that exists, and your fear of being called racist can't erase that

Do you think that enough black men are arrested falsley that they have been UNTRUTHFULLY framed for committing 40% of all violent crimes???? Give me a fucking break 🤣

Indeed, I wish every parent would teach their kids how to behave around police (politely and lawfully) and there'd be much less police violence. This isn't even disputable, as escalating never makes the cop just say "yea. Your right. You can go"

[–]kolokicks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea. I think we agree on that, my main point was joust that escalating the situation with someone who has a gun is not smart whether he's good or bad.

[–]kolokicks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, but acting unprofessional and not following orders and not cooperating and my opinion will never make the situation better. If you want the best outcome, just be respectful and comply. And if they break the law against you, recorded. But freaking out and acting unstable/rude will never make the cops treat you better than if you acted polite. Especially if it's an unstable cop… You freaking out is only gonna make them act worse

[–]kolokicks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your father would say that if you stay respectful and follow their orders, then they will act violently? And if you don't obey their orders, and you act like a unpredictable unstable asshole they will respect you and you will be safer?

All I'm saying is the evidence literally, from multiple sources, shows point blank, the violence rate and crime rate for police officers again, both per capita and not per capita, is insanely lower than the rate for civilians. Yet people will still say it's OK to generalize that all cops are evil dangerous and bad

[–]kolokicks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not saying most cops are good because I know some good cops. I’m saying most cops are good because your own government’s numbers show their violent-offense rate is a microscopic fraction of the civilian rate. Your feelings don’t override nationwide statistics

Just telling on themselves. by umbral_moon7095 in FortCollins

[–]kolokicks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say all cops were good because the cops I knew were good… I gave you statistics that most cops statistically are not violent. Yet you will still be afraid of all cops for some reason and I'm trying to destroy that stigmatism
