The riots........where/how will it end?

[Okie4570]

Not a simple answer......is there even an answer at all............who/what/where/when will there be a change? Will these cities all turn out like Detroit where the "white flight" was prevalent in the late 60's/early 70's. Living where we do, I'm not sure that I/we can understand the scope of it.

Gunning everyone down won't happen..............
Educating everyone won't happen........
Common sense isn't, and will never be the norm in these settings........

How will changing the views on entitlement occur?
How will the views of oppression ever change?
How will the views of LE ever change? Even if things are done by the book.. "a badge is the enemy" in their eyes...

I don't see anything ever changing for the better in my lifetime, or my kids, or grandkids.........

Let it burn...we can't/won't change it until it goes past the point of failure and needs to be rebuilt.

How will the views of oppression ever change?

Who is the oppressed, and who is the oppressor? Cops? Likely isn't going to change - if nothing else, it's only going to become worse. And they are "oppressing" whites at a greater rate than blacks. Whites just don't riot over it.

Whites oppressing blacks? Then why do blacks continually follow whites when "white flight" occurs? Stockholm Syndrome? If whites are the mean, racist creatures they are made out to be, should not minorities be happy when the whites move away, leaving them to their own devices?

I agree with you; things are only going to get worse. And not just in the race or LEO catagories. We've got real problems headed our way.

It all started when parents quit making kids responsible for their actions.

It all started when parents quit making kids responsible for their actions.

When Government stopped making parents responsible for their kids.
When Government stopped taking responsibility for it's actions.
When the brief shining moment of people putting freedom first, and trying to build a Government that respected those principles passed, and the greedy and power-mad once again took over the reins of this nation.

And when fatherless homes became acceptable.

No. Stay focused on the issue. Cops have no business shooting unarmed men. Cops have no business dog piling a citizen which ended in loss of life. Cops have no business shooting a citizen while he's handcuffed.

The same parents your blaming raised cops.

Cops work for the good if all people. There's no excuse for crushing a guys larynx. There's no excuse for shooting a unarmed man who is running away. There's no excuse

Cops who turn a blind eye to other cops using excessive force are witnesses to a crime. They need to step up and arrest their fellow officers or be charged as an accessory to a crime.

Baltimore will settle down much like Ferguson did. In the mean time, other Cops need to start minding their Ps and Qs.

There's no excuse for crushing a guys larynx and breaking his leg, and three vertebrae and walloping his head hard enough to cause swelling of his brain. There's no excuse for shooting a unarmed man who is running away. There's no excuse

FIFY

This more than anything. The number of cops who commit evil, or injure through casual indifference, is minuscule, but gain more notoriety than the admiration of the significantly larger number who go the extra mile, or even the bulk, who put clock in, do their shift, and clock out. The number of the cops who do unjust harm and skate, while not 100%, is still too high.

This shite is just snowballing out of control, one after another. #1 rule for criminals in the future should be- you dont run from, argue with, or wrestle with the police, no matter what you have done things can only go better for you if you just dont run or fight back. Doh. These cops arent ****king around any more, theyre killing people man, gd, just shut the F up and do what they say and it will all go well for ya's. By now, after all of these incidents people still dont get it? Then we must have some dumb muthers in this country then. You just dont argue with the police, save that for court and put your money where your smartazz mouth is and lawyer up.

Makes me think about that Mom who beat the crap out of her kid for being one of the rioters. Bravo for her.
