Current Affairs George Floyd and Minneapolis Unrest

Interesting and passionate take on things here which will no doubt be unpopular, but I did say that the majority of people I have spoken with want the military on the streets to assist the police...

Yes these people do exist and they do have different opinions to others;

You can read cant you?

Jesus wept qanon posts about fox News.

Come off it with this innocent post crap.

His secret weapon is the format of his posts, he beats you into submission by asking 20 questions in one go while simultaneously ignoring anything you actually said. His 'unreadability' is his greatest asset but it does make for very poor conversation.

I'm unfortunately learning that. You are a wise man.

The guy wants to tell me what is happening down the street from me. It's like if I look up and say it's raining, he's like na you're wrong. I follow this one Korean lady on Twitter she said it's sunny there.

There are two big problems with that: the first is that after about Monday or Tuesday there has been very little violence outside of when the police and/or national guard try to break up protests. The idea that our cities are on fire or whatever he says is just a fantasy at this point.

The second is that this majority of people who want the national guard in the cities are probably people who don't actually live in the cities. I can't speak for everywhere, but where I'm from you'd have people in the surrounding counties flipping out and demanding action, but the actual people in the cities pretty content with where things are.

That's of course without getting into the madness that vigilante justice is what we're one step away from.

This is spot on. I really don't know what the weekend holds here. Pittsburghfooty actually posted a video I didn't know about from today. I looked it up, people are posting the cops addresses and personal information all over twitter. It is quiet during the week. Like it was last week, but idk if it will blow up again this weekend.


Still, no one is behaving like @Zatara. I still don't know, where is that dude from. No one is calling for military in the streets and things.

That dude sees a Tucker Carlson clip on twitter and all of the sudden thinks he's in Harlem. I'm gonna drag him until he answers or owns up. Coward

You do tend to see a lot of people who get beaten up make a nasty comment to the attackers when they are walking away.

I imagine due to her helplessness and 'shame/fear' (or whatever the appropriate word is) of being beaten she lashed out with the most hurtful thing she could say.

The people who attacked the victim (in my experience) usually come back and beat them up more no matter what they say.

If it had not been 3 black guys but say Japanese,Chinese, Mexican or anyone else non white and she had used an equally offensive word to them would there be the same reaction?

What is about black people you think makes them more likely to assault somebody than others?

Tucker Carlson does indeed hold alternative opinions, most of them expressed poorly thought through and
extremely loudly for shock value.

Bryan Dean Wright is an alt right crank who believes BLM are terrorists who plant bombs, writes about the "Deep State" conspiracy theory for a living and is itching to unleash the army against their own citizens.

Do you ever do a cursory google of people who's views you're presenting?

Fox News lol

 

[zzr45]

Tweets like this do make me giggle. There’s so many little elements, like the reference to white guilt which can be easily fixed by following a Black person on Twitter, how not everything been said is hugely important and how life goes on outside these events.

 

[Charro]

Fox News hahahahahaha

We’re one post away from Katie Hopkins now

 

[Disgruntledgoat]

What's the point of spending a billion dollars a year on military style equipment for the police if they cant even use it to effectively police a large peaceful protest and nick a tiny minority of looters at the same time?

 

[Zatara]

His posts have been so bad. That wasn't just a korean woman killing a black woman.

It was her killing a 15 year old black child who was stealing a bottle of juice. Then not even being charged or standing trial.

I'm finding it harder and harder to respect his opinions. What he says almost never resembles the truth. He is right to his own opinion, but what he doesn't have a right to do is construct his own version of things.

The guy is trying to tell me about things that happened just a couple miles away from me. He says stuff about NYC I talk to people there and he's like I was talking about manhattan not NYC. Which manhattan is NYC.

Where is this guy from and what's his deal. Can someone please explain it?

1: I never said anything about the black child/woman/female explicitly or the circumstances of their death by shooting.

2: My entire point was that a korean shot a black person then 40+ korean stores were attacked by armed black people.

I cant see where you have disputed this fact in your post.

Are you disputing this?



As for NYC and NJ there has been rioting and looting in BOTH places.

Yes that includes manhattan. You wrote in an older post that it was only in manhattan and not other boroughs of NYC. I misunderstood and then you clarified and i said i only know of manhattan seeing rioting and looting.

I make / receive calls to both places every single day by the way.

What are you disputing here? Its a fact.


1: Have NYC + NJ suffered lootings and riots YES

2: Were 40 korean stores attacked by black people after 1 korean killed a black person YES



Wonder why you felt the need to openly post about me personally than asking me to clarify...

We both know why

Yea I know why because you are intentionally twisting facts and have been for the last couple nights.

I'm glad you numbered them. It's your own undoing, not that you needed it. No one understands your posts. And that's not because they're intelligent. And that lil comment you threw in at the end, I'll get to it.

1. YOU never explicitly mentioned anything about the korean woman shooting the black girl, or woman as you put it, because it didn't fit your narrative. Latasha Harlins was shot dead at 15 by a Korean store owner right after the Rodney King stuff went down.

I was wrong, she was tried. She was sentenced to community service and a $500 fine plus funeral costs. Probably fair in your eyes.

YOU don't mention this stuff, YOU just drive by mention it to make it fit whatever the hell you're trying to say. I don't think anyone knows what the hell you're trying to say, and since we have to directly ask the almighty Zatara when he decides to speak in tongues, "What do you mean by pointing this out?"

So what do YOU mean by bringing up a 15 year old girl getting murdered for a 2 dollar bottle of orange juice?

Why did YOU avoid the details? Why did YOU say it was a black woman when she is considered a child by American standards?

And why are YOU trying to bring up something that happened nearly 30 years ago now and omitting those important facts?

LA was burning at that point. All of LA.

YOU act like I have some agenda, yet YOU, YOU, YOU brought this up. YOU misconstrued facts. YOU acted like they don't hold any relevance when I pointed this out.

I did not bring Latasha Harlins into this. I've known about Latasha for years. It happened in 91, and I was born in 89.

I've dealt with this stuff. I've seen my city burn. I've boarded up my workplace to protect it. I LIVE 2 MILES FROM THAT VIDEO. YOU have the audacity to come on here and lecture, and talk about my city. NYC where YOU went from friends telling YOY, to I'm watching live streams.

I'm done with YOU. YOU, YOU, i put YOU in caps because YOU seem to really need emphasis. YOU don't know what YOU're talking about. YOU say these little cute things about NY. Don't say anything about NY because YOU've been wrong everytime.

And for YOUR little comment at the end. Why have I felt the need to comment about YOU, YOU, and only YOU saying things. Because YOU are wrong about almost everything. I could have been on Marshall Street with that lady and YOU'd still say no she didn't say the n word when it's all known. I'd have more words for YOU because YOU are doing nothing good in this thread.

Why do YOU think I said what I said about YOUR posts regarding MY CITY. Maybe because I LIVE HERE.

Man I hate doing the caps thing but this guy needs it.

That's complete nonsense. Please state your point. I'd like to understand it.

I answered your points. You have yet to answer any of my rebuttals. You just throw out vague things which aren't fair to me.

I'm unfortunately learning that. You are a wise man.

...and here is the exact thing ive been saying.

Personal attacks one after another...

+ certain posters 'liking' personal attacks.


Post a few facts, link a few videos which some posters disagree with (despite being widely agreed with) and hey presto...

...personal attacks.


"Im a good person, i support the minority groups and their views"

Nope...you just follow the herd and attack anyone with a different viewpoint...

"No one is calling for the military in the streets and things"...

NO ONE...not one single person...you say straight after seeing a video with a guy discussing it.

Couldnt make it up.

But yeah personal attacks...

Considering the in depth scouting Zat does of youthful footballers I'm surprised at his lack of research

Fox News lol

Not a fan Neil? I was told to check who i was linking in case people didnt like them.

I checked and Fox News is the most watched news station in the US ?

You’ve posted some very questionable opinions with some videos from some very questionable people.

You’ve been challenged on this and decided to play the victim. Throughout this thread you’re making everything about you and how you’re the victim in all this.

Now you’re posting stuff from Fox News? We can all see straight through you.
