physically fighting against the police does not justify shooting a man in the head when you have him pinned to the ground.
Having a record of being a criminal does not justify excessive use of force.
Okay so the AR-15 isn't a machine gun but you can also buy machine guns, so just replace AR-15 with any kind of rapid fire automatic weapon and my point still stands. There needs to be some degree of deescalation in regards to fire power in the hands of the government and the people. Should that come from legislation? Probably not. But could people work together, socially or ethically, to reduce the necessity for guns? Absolutely.
The reason why race is being discussed whatsoever in regards to police brutality is due to the mentality and conditioning of cops which compels them to specifically target black and latinx people as criminal suspects. There's a much higher chance of being arrested if you're black, and there's a history of racial-prejudice in the U.S. which proves it. Mass incarceration of black people: the percentage of black and latinx people in jail is so much higher than that of white people. Not only that, but black people are often given heavier sentences than white people.
It's not supposed to mean that black and white people should hate each other, but in order to work together we all have to recognize what the problem is. It's police brutality, militarization and mass incarceration against everyone, however it leans most heavily on minorities. No one goes out in the streets, at least in my city, and runs around saying "hate all white people, hate all white people" and the people that do are looked at as idiots and no one listens to them. Most people I've talked to do not even condone hating the police. Almost the entirety of the protesters whom I have spoken to have been immensely welcoming, loving and protective of everyone involved.
you can understand it all by thinking about it, but the direct experience of meeting these people who you claim to be causing racial divisions is much more illuminating than just guessing what it is that they think and are trying to accomplish.
And the racial division thing? That's really just an illusionary spin on reality from the media causing hysteria about the protests.

Zero in on a practically irrelevant premise and ignore the conclusion. it's like talking with a pack of lemmings.
Automatic weapons. Replace machine guns with Automatic Weapons. Like AK-47s. Or AR-15s. Then continue reading, for if you don't replace them then I suppose you'll all come down with a mean case of butthurt.
Not to mention the complete disregard of all other content in the post. Which has nothing to do with guns. You know, being unable to come up with a rebuttal other than red herrings usually indicates a complete lack of competency in your argument.

All other content is irrelevant, if you think people can just go buy machine guns, whether by ignorance or disingenuousness, then anything else you've said is not worth reading

don't believe the hype that you cannot get an automatic, also, do not believe they are "that easy" to obtain, although they are obtainable.
look up knob creek, plenty of privately owned autos.

From The Movie Dirty Harry: (Clint Eastwood)
The Mayor: Callahan... I don't want any more trouble like you had last year in the Fillmore district. You understand? That's my policy.
Harry Callahan: Yeah, well, when an adult male is chasing a female with intent to commit rape, I shoot the bastard - that's my policy.
The Mayor: Intent? How'd you establish that?
Harry Callahan: When a naked man is chasing a woman through a dark alley with a butcher knife and a hard on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross. [leaves]
The Mayor: I think he's got a point.

No, not anyone can, that's the point, there is the issue of being a felon, they can't, there is money, that stops a whole lot more.
No one is just going to there local gun shop, plopping down a few hundo, and walking out with a full auto

Are you just trolling or something? You blind sided me with red herrings for about an hour on the pretense that you "can not buy a machine gun" and yet it is completely possible to ascertain an automatic weapon as a civilian. And yet you continue to ignore the actual discussion.... ya aint doin it right, man.

Red herring? I don't think that means what you think it does
It's also possible to obtain hand grenades and rocket launchers too, shall we all freak out and start discussing how we can ban them?

dode thatz why ya gotta read my post if ya wanna discuss it. I don't thinking banning weapons is necessarily a good idea... I think it's a social thing, something where there should be less of a need and want for guns, partially via disarming police for their average outing around town, and mainly through cultural and ethical work done on an individual to individual basis.
