To me, open carry people seem like they would just blast away randomly with firepower they are in no way capable of handling. And probably end up killing more innocents than "bad guys".
Because they open carry, they're probably not responsible/trained gun owners? That's a weird assumption.

Well, he has a point. If you would have mentioned open carrying in a gay nightclub (or even concealed carrying) two months ago, you'd be laughed at with a snide remark along the lines of "What, you expect them to blast you with techno to death?". I don't open carry, or conceal carry for that matter,...

Yup, that's an execution. They should be charged with second-degree murder.

Good choice doing this before you have kids. For a lot of reasons obviously, but they're such a time suck that diet and exercise can be veeeeeery tricky to maintain. Couldn't agree more. It's pretty much wake up early in the morning or bust, and sometimes that doesn't even work. On a side note, I s...

I'd also guess she might have been in a state of shock and literally couldn't process the situation fully. That's a good point. I envision myself freaking out and probably getting shot if I was in that situation and it was my wife sitting there dying next to me, but who knows. Human beings have wil...

What kind of irks me is the lady, recording it so calmly until she gets put in the car. Shock or what, but I'd be freaking out if the one I loved just took four to the chest and died right there. That part was absolutely bizarre. "Oh no, don't tell me my boyfriend just died". It was just weird and ...

I just watched the video of the guy that was shot reaching for his ID. That is one of the most heartwrenching things I've ever seen. The cop sounds hysterical.

Apparently the review embargo for the Ghostbusters reboot has been pushed back to the day of the release. This is obviously so all those misogynistic critics can't hate women. Oh man.

Of course that all comes back to money and time. Who is paying for the extra manpower (excuse the gendered language, triggering as it may be) to watch hours and hours of police gopro footage?

Everyone is wired a little differently. When a cop starts an altercation, yes, there are some people that are wired to just do what they say and follow orders out of fear. There are some people that have a "f*** you" attitude toward people that aggressive for no reason. I believe the onus is on the...

Watched that new video of that guy who got shot for reaching for his ID/gun. Tough stuff to watch. Hearing the daughter say I'm here with you in the back of a police car is incredibly sad.
That one was terrible. Didn't they ask him for ID and then shot him as he reached for it? Sickening.

I'm just going off your prior comments in this thread. I don't see anything about plots to execute black people, unless you're referring to BLM people. Yes, I've referred specifically to that.

Maybe not 'deserved', but I don't think you can trivialize it any more than you already have, IMO. It's not trivialized at all. In the scope of use of force, Alton Sterling was most certainly killed unlawfully by police officers with poor training. I'm merely not going to point to it as part of som...

All genuinely bad people deserve to be murdered? I think there are people who are genuinely unaware of why folks are outraged when police use lethal force like this. I'm not unaware, I'm just tired of the selective nature of it. More than 60 people were shot (I would assume all or the vast majority...

Not at all. I haven't said one time that he deserved to be murdered, and I've made clear that this was most certainly improper use of force.

Well in any event, this, unlike some other incidents (Ferguson, for example) seems like a pretty clear cut case of improper use of lethal force on the part of the officers. Seems like a cut and dry case of manslaughter, if not murder. If they don't get punished or convicted, please feel free to prot...
