I was not addressing police brutality in my post. I was clearly answering the false accusation that liberals invented the word and use it as a form of bigotry. The article shows it was your right wingers who did so.

Now, want to get back to the issue? OK. Answer my question about police accountability for shooting pepper spray into a crowd of innocent bystanders who were behind the barricades and posed no threat.

When you acknowledge that your bringing the Tea Party into this thread was not only completely off topic, but utterly irrelevant to the Op.

Look above and you will see references to G8 and G20 protests, Perry ridge, agent provocateurs, a stock broker who was an innocent bystander who worked in Wall Street who was hassled by police, a reference to ''Today there are endless numbers of helpful douchebags and cop-enablers with cameras of all sorts. Also, add to that the influx of professional rent-a-'protester', 'activists', black hoodies and whatnot.'' with out the slightest proof that any of this this occurred.

What was the relevance of these comments?

Where were your attacks on them?

So you still won't acknowledge that you dragged your bullcrap partisan politics into an OP that had nothing to do with the Tea Party. Quite frankly Gopher if you are so utterly dense that you don't understand why I jacked you around yesterday I can't for the life of me understand why it would be worth engaging you in a discussion about police brutality.

I'll tell you what. Go back to the beginning of this thread and only read my posts. If a light bulb goes on inside your head congratulations, but if after that you can't come to a conclusion where I stand then put me on ignore.

LOL. All you did was to project yourself and inclinations as every body could plainly see. In fact in case you forgot, it was Cliffy who said, ''You sound a little obsessed with ball sacs.''

As for partisan politics, the references to other protests also shows people's viewpoints which you failed to criticize, not that you should anyway since forums work best when there are divergent viewpoints.

Ah so you didn't go back and actually read my posts.

No worries dude. I didn't expect you would.

Brown shirts!!!



Way to Godwin.

He never does. Which is why he makes huge mistakes about what people have said, and calls people like you, Durka and myself, "reich wingers".

His story was more full of holes than Swiss cheese. How do you shoot someone in the back of the head while he is on top of you. That one sounded like a cover up, not inconclusive.
I'm not talking about the story in my response here Cliff - just responding to your question of how do you shoot someone in the back of the head. I don't know how this story played out or which story you are referring to (I know I could look it up) but - moving fwd - If you are armed and laying on your back, and someone manages to get on top of you, why couldn't you shoot them in the back of the head? If the person was sitting on top of you in an up right position it would be difficult but not completely impossible and if they were basically laying on top of you, it wouldn't be very hard at all. The back of the head at that point, would probably be about the easiest to shoot. Attempting to aim for anywhere else on their body might guarantee shooting yourself.

An individual member of society should NOT have to kiss ass to someone that is employed BY society to protect society and the individual. It appears though that that is EXACTLY what is expected.

It's fairly seldom that law abiding citizens have to kiss anybody's ass. :smile:

The link I posted about the Williams Lake teen is a prime example of individuals expected to kiss some cops ass to keep from being mistreated.

Guys....I'm not seeing where the personal sniping is contribution to the Thread in any
positive manner, or has anything to add to the topic itself. Am I missing something?
