They don't get shot for criminal histories though . They get shot for non compliance . I saw a vid the other day of these dudes swinging on a cop at the airport .

How can we expect to have a police force full of upstanding law abiding people who do the right thing in every situation when that just isn't who we are as a culture .
the cop should of walked away thats the way to do it. There is no need to pull a gun unless your being shot at. I think cops should be able to only carry pepper spray an a tazer an no fire arms of any sort.

So George Floyd can't be a symbol of police tyranny and oppression because he also had a long criminal record? His past criminal record had nothing to do with what ended his life that day. It's almost like many people were justifying the murderous police because Floyd had a past nobody knew about until he was already dead.
What the police did to Floyd was captured on video and that changed the US in a big way that day, that change is much larger than the past character of Floyd.
The real killings are black on black, and instead of focusing on that they double down on protecting their criminals who do stupid shit and win stupid prizes. They're not interested culturally at self-accountability. It's just easier to blame the "patriarchal white supremacist system" or whatever nonsense the Left has crafted, instead of looking inwards at their own deep social problems. Such as fatherless children, drug addiction, violent upbringings, a lack of interest in scholastic achievement and a lack of good black business people role models (and I don't mean crime glorifying rappers). They're the cycles the black communities need to address. No, the problem to it all is caused by the police! 
The current laws and policing tactics do not help the impoverished populations in the US today, it makes those populations worse off on many different levels. Who is more accountable for the poorest populations in the US today? The policy makers who have destroyed the working class, or the unskilled workers themselves?
Does the 'war on drugs' hurt or help the most violent areas in the US today? Yeah, it's almost like that change of policy could reduce the vast majority of that violence, yet the effort to do so isn't there.
So let's ignore the economic and legal policies that create the vast majority of these issues and lets just blame people that get caught up in the inevitable results.

Lol wrong. How did you make so much money with such poor comprehension skills? You’re wound up that tight wanting to show everyone how smart you are you couldn’t even read the first page…. interesting.
I’m thankful and loving having a real life example of the social fallout of Sky News Aus, you’re saving me time having to try and explain it, so thanks a lot please, keep posting.

There is a phenomenon of right wing thinkers not being able to understand sarcasm, irony, or simple jokes.
Not surprised they thought this was a thread for actual police appreciation

Oh, did you see their take on the new Dune movie? God, that was amazing. Marvel is "woke" because there's a gay character, but the anti colonialist, anti imperial, pro-environmental, and anti-capitalist allegory for fighting over oil in the middle east isn't.

Growing up, I was always told that you don't point a gun at someone unless you intend to shoot them. It seems like this rule was forgotten or is ignored by many including cops

Police appreciation works like antiques appreciation:
The less of them are around, the more you appreciate them

The ‘patriarchal white supremacist system’ WAS the catalyst and it’s still happening today.
Black people were lynched in their thousands since the Civil War, do you really think the racist history of the U.S. has nothing to do with the current situation?
White privilege = you blacks are the problem. It’s an ugly, ignorant and narrow minded point of view.

I know, that's why I stay in the outskirts, observe (mainly), and interject when I have something to say. If it's of value or not may be subjective.

Yeah, US cops are literally trained to have their guns out and pointed at whoever they are interacting with at the slightest threat. They do draw drills.
I remember reading an interview with a cop, and he was responding to like, a burglary or something, and when some dude showed up in front of him he described it as his gun already just being out before he even thought about it.
I absolutely believe that cops routinely shoot people out of muscle memory before their brains even catch up to what they are doing.

They do . Criminals do to . Whose fault is that though ? Isn't the simple fact that we almost all have access to cheap guns and the fact that you have to assume everyone has one the driving factor in that problem ? They are policing the most heavily armed civilian population in the world . Theres no shortage of videos of police officers being shot by quick criminals .
This one was dam lucky .
How could you be a cop in this country and not have an itchy trigger finger ? I would feel safer being a cop where I'm at in Colombia right now .

Yes and no. Due to being a heavily armed population, I think it would be unreasonable to have an unarmed police force. Access to guns obviously leads to shootings.
But I don't think that means that cops shouldn't be held to a higher standard, nor expected to use force much more judiciously than the average schmo. The fact that a draw-fire muscle memory response is drilled into cops is absolutely part of the problem.
Like that one cop that meant to draw her taser but grabbed her gun instead--that makes sense in the context of US police training, but it is also just absolutely bonkers.

I only watched the first one you posted by cbs news but that guy was fidgeting way too much with his hands down without being told to get them on the wheel. A lot of times, a cop's reaction is extreme but they could've tased that guy while he was fumbling in his jacket for his gun and he would probably be alive now. Using non-lethal means of control way more than they do would go a long way towards solving a lot of issues including some of the animosity felt toward cops

LAPD bullets kill an unarmed suspect in a store and a 14 year old girl behind the wall where they were aiming. . Within 5 seconds the mother is screaming because she jut saw her kid dies . Anyone had enough of this yet?

Cops shouldn't be armed. A cop should prioritize protection of the public. Carrying guns is about protecting the cop.

thats why i say fuck all police all they are is a fat power hungry pigs that are only there to enforce the law.
Like i said before the criminals deserve a free pass its a fourm of protesting against the systems. I truly think we need to shut down all prisons an set the prisoners free.
