George Floyd killing and the aftermath

[Solkern]

Nope. Police follow orders of elected officials in cities and in big cities it's always Democrats running things.

Sheriffs are elected and tend to lean Republican and sheriff deputies tend not to be nearly as bad as police officers in big cities.

I’m sure Derek Chauvin was following a democratic leader’s orders to put his knee on the guys neck for 8 minutes, that was prone, handcuffed defenseless, not resisting at all... and suffering, who was pleading the entire time.

Police are republicans. And it’s the police that are racial profiling, and doing police brutality.
It’s not the democratic leaders telling them to do so. They are doing it by their own choice and free will.

Please show me proof, that democratic leaders are ordering police officers to do this.

You should stop making every situation political. It was a single man who killed this guy. Republican, Democratic, white, black, Asian, male or female.. big city, small city, in the boondocks, it doesn’t matter. Someone died and you are spinning this into a political shit show, don’t you have any empathy?

[Solkern]

Dear lord SMH, are you really that fucking retarded? Maybe have your coffee before you leave dumb ass rep.

Calling all the protestors Democratic liberals is like calling all police officers republican... it’s fucking stupid. That was the point.

I doubt it was a direct order but something about his training and the leadership of the police must have made him think it was acceptable to place his knee on the neck of a suspect.

Isn't that just like a Democrat, be completely in control of the local and state government yet still blame someone else for all of the failings that go on in their city and state.

Here we have large cities completely dominated by Democrats on the local level and pass off all the blame on the police officers. Often (all cities?) the police chief answers directly to the mayor, the local city council pass budgets and training requirements for the police, yet apparently all of the elected officials have clean hands, it's just those gosh darn unaccountable police officers doing it all! Oh wait, except they ARE accountable, to the mayor and local city council, so why aren't they doing more to root out the bad cops?

This is exactly why nothing ever changes. We know exactly where the problem is, with the elected officials who are almost always Democrats, but Democrat voters don't want to hold Democrat politicians accountable so they find a way to blame the police or Republicans.

Ah yes, another favored tactic of the left, shame people into not talking about topics they don't want you to speak about.

This is political. How can you be so blind as to not see it? This is far beyond the killing of George Floyd now.

No you are blaming someone else, for this mans action. NO ONE is to blame, except this Derek Chauvin. His actions alone caused this mans death. He had a choice. There is absolutely nothing political about what he did. He killed another man. That’s it. Nothing to do with republicans, democrats or anything.
What’s happening now is just rage and senseless acts of violence and destruction.... by people of all political parties, all races, and sexes. That’s what I’m trying to point out.

Is most of these senseless and stupid acts done by democrats, probably, as they make up the majority of major cities... but that’s honestly not the point, and it doesn’t really matter, because it’s not just Democratic liberals.

Just like when trump told Russia to find Hillary’s emails. It’s NOT trumps fault that Russia did it.

You're kind of leaving out that this "cop" had a prior history of complaints and yet was still allowed to keep his badge. Who makes that decision?

Pretty sure it’s up to the police station and the police chief, not the democratic leaders. They don’t control and watch every single hiring of every police officer, do they?

From what I could find: State police (or Troopers, or Highway Patrol Officers, etc.) are hired and fired by the State Police agencies. City police officers are hired and fired by city police agencies.


According to CNN it’s up to the police’s internal affairs about these complaints.

You’re right. Republican police brutality and racial profiling. Since police are Republican.
Looks like it’s the republicans that are the root of this problem.
According to your logic.

wut?

That's not anyone's "logic" but yours.. and it's retarded.

Like off the scale retarded.

Stop being retarded.
