    It's amazing just how capable American police are at peacefully arresting heavily armed white men who just murdered scores of people without shooting, tasering, or even scratching them. I'm not even playing - I commend them. We'd just like that expertise in our communities too.

        Its amazing that because he is not a Muslim no one is hyped up about this being terrorism and have all these counterterrorism go on TV to talk about the threat of "Islamic terrorism"

        Now if they could only learn such restraints when dealing with an unarmed person of color minding his/her own business as he/she goes about her day lawfully. I know this was inferred in your statement but white folk seem incapable of deduction, and since I’m white they’ll listen.

        Wish it was that simple. Does the quote “hands up, don’t shoot” ring any type of bell 🔔 for you?

        Do you mean like how 75 to 90 armed police officers couldn't apprehend an 18 year old boy armed with a lawnmower blade accused of killing a police officer, whereas armed mass shooters and terrorism suspects are apprehended alive? Weird, right? 🤔https://www.cbsnews.com/news/tafahree-maynard-suspect-in-fatal-shooting-of-georgia-officer-antwan-toney-shot-dead-after-manhunt/ …

        Shaun not sure if this is the best time but as some1 born Jewish I am appalled that two Black Americans were killed by white supremacist in KY & very little info or outcry. As I have said being & staying complacent is same as committing the crime!

        I generally agree with you on things, but come on. I’m all for civil liberties and fair treatment for every citizen. But you’re now using this tragedy to change the topic. Give it a rest for a while. Just mourn for those impacted. This isn’t the time for that discussion.
