Member | Tue Oct 27 00:48:07 I like that at 0:02 the guy filming was in the line of fire and said, "Watch the wheel! Don't shoot the wheel," (i.e., don't shoot my car) instead of thinking maybe that he was in mortal danger and shouldn't be in that spot. Anyways, probably not a good idea to walk aggressively towards police while brandishing a knife. Just a thought. |

Member | Tue Oct 27 02:33:16 Another angle of the shooting here: "'Put the knife down': Man shot, killed by police in West Philadelphia" [WPVI, Philadelphia; October 26th, 2020] http://6ab...-police-locust-street/7368220/ It looks like a pretty big knife on top of everything: maybe 8–10 inches based on the rear camera angle. .. The riots may be sponsored by more of the Trevor Noah "social compact" logic; if you perceive injustice, you can do whatever you want. It's pretty awesome because it's not even possible to apply justice on the timeline that rioters demand. The Philly police shot Walter Wallace on Monday afternoon, and it would probably take days and weeks to formalize charges, set court dates, etc. Meanwhile, rioters have a sweet spot of ignorance and emotional reaction where they can surrender accountability and Purge for a little while. Blessed be our New Founding Fathers for letting us Purge and cleanse our souls. Blessed be America, a nation reborn. |

Paramount
Member | Wed Oct 28 02:35:22 According to Hot Rod, many blacks support Trump. So maybe these people who are rioting now are Trump’s supporters. |
habebe
Member | Wed Oct 28 02:45:36 Was hotrod alive for the Trump.presidency? basically I see it like this. 1. Riots will deter/slow voting innthe afflicted area. 2. It reinforces the narrative that these democrats are burning/destroying our country, which has seemed to be an effective way to swing some voters ( defender of the suburbs and all) |
habebe
Member | Wed Oct 28 02:46:12 Plus PA being a key state....pun intended. |
Paramount
Member | Wed Oct 28 02:54:04 Yes, I think he was. He died around Christmas after Trump had been elected. Maybe even a year into Trump’s presidency. Don’t remember exactly what year now. |
habebe
Member | Wed Oct 28 03:04:51 Well he died happy... |

Member | Thu Oct 29 14:19:04 Steve Keeley @KeeleyFox29 Oct 28 Breaking: OBTAINED BY FOX29 NEWS. Directive from @PhillyPolice executive team. Extremely frustrated officers, both patrol&commanders told me overnight they were”ordered to NOT arrest looters just disperse them”. ‘CAR-2’ is Deputy Police Commissioner Melvin Singleton Steve Keeley @KeeleyFox29 Oct 28 Yesterday when police announced the number of arrests in the Mon-Tues looting,charges were for “burglary”. And in the directive, @phillypolice point out no calls for burglary will be responded to by the dept.&officers think that leaves no deterrent to stop looting http://mob...-ordered-not-arrest-looters%2F |

Member | Thu Oct 29 15:09:25 Rugian, you obviously have no idea what the logistics of arresting that many people would entail. It's not like you are playing by any rules where if you are tagged you must report to the local jail and book yourself. |
sam adams
Member | Thu Oct 29 16:30:44 You dont have to arrest all of them at once to deter future african riots. |
Rugian
Member | Thu Oct 29 16:34:24 Patom I see. So in your opinion, the police shouldn't even bother trying to stop acts of looting. And your boy Biden also wants to ban AR-15s, so business owners wont be able to defend their properties on their own either. How is Trump wrong when he says that Democrats like yourself are bringing anarchy to our cities, again? |

If it still isn't enough, then that would count as rebellion and you could send in the US military. In reality, police stick together and arrest a handful at a time, leave them locked up until the violence stops. |
habebe
Member | Fri Oct 30 10:51:26 Dakyron actually makes a goos point That's what the National Guard is there for. |
Rugian
Member | Fri Oct 30 14:19:29 http://www...BAg&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-img The 1968 riots. Not only are the Guardsmen out in force, but they have rifles and bayonets as well. Yet somehow its beyond the pale to advocate for similar measures in 2020. |
Rugian
Member | Fri Oct 30 14:23:00 The difference is that in 1968, journalists and Democratic mayors weren't siding with the rioters. |
patom
Member | Fri Oct 30 14:29:37 The Difference in 68 was Frank Rizzo. Most of the city was scared shitless of him. |

Member | Fri Oct 30 14:36:07 ""Just wait after November, you'll have a front row seat because I'm going to make Attila the Hun look like a faggot." -Frank Rizzo Ahahahahaha what a great guy. |
