[quote=Anonymous][quote]DP. It seems like this issue of "there are some bad apples but most cops are good so why are they being treated bad like the bad ones" is similar to "there are some bad apples in the black community but many are good so why are they being treated bad like the bad ones". It's interesting that some people seem to understand the situation on the black side but not the cops side. Cops can literally be shot dead in a second if they don't protect themselves properly. Instead of just saying that cops should bend over backwards to prove that they aren't one of the bad apples, maybe the good black people should also bend over backwards to make it clear that they're not in the group that are going to fight an officer and use his weapon against him or randomly pull out a weapon of his own and fire it. But then people say why should people in that group (either group) need to do that. I don't think anything is going to improve here until we get people on BOTH sides to acknowledge that each group could do more to show that they aren't one of the bad apples in their group. And to stop protecting the bad apples and do more to make sure that the bad apples in their group are in prison for as long as possible. With the bad apples all gone, people could relax more and we can have a better country.[/quote] You need to watch some of the footage of "good" Black folks who defer to police instructions and are still murdered in cold blood. Philando Castille informed the officer that he had a licensed concealed weapon. He did EXACTLY what he was supposed to do, and was shot in cold blood in front of his GF and his GF's child. John Crawford was walking through a Wal Mart with a pellet gun he got off the rack. Shot to death. Caron Nazario was complying with all orders and still in uniform when he was pulled over, and was dragged from his car and pepper sprayed. Botham Jean was just sitting in his living room watching television when he was shot by an off-duty police officer in his own apartment. Andre Hill was killed because he was holding a mobile phone that police mistook for a gun, just weeks after another Black man was killed when police mistook his sandwich for a gun. On and on and on. There is no level of "compliance" that works on killer cops. There's no magic word that Black moms can give their sons to keep them safe. [/quote]
