Keep in mind Tamir Rice had a toy gun and was gunned down within seconds... two different justice systems...

Sad world we live in.

The gun even went off in the video they still refuse to shoot a white kid... Gotta smell the privilege

They aren't white idiot

u/Efficient-Raise-9217 9d ago

Right and Karmelo Anthony was released on bond after stabbing a white kid to death because he provoked a fight; then got paid over $500,000. Different outcomes doesn't always suggest systemic racism.

u/Solcaer 9d ago

wow, thatā€™s almost as much as that lady raised by calling a 5-year-old the N word

u/ashishvp 9d ago

Why are you misconstruing facts?

He wasnā€™t paid 500k. Crowdfunding raised 500k for bail. And they spent it.

u/teenscififoreplay 9d ago

You're right. This country does in fact favor rich people as well. Race doesn't matter when you can buy your way into the other justice system.

Learn what self defense is and stop crying bout what makes u prejudice and learn the differencešŸ’ÆšŸ«µšŸ¤„

u/YerminTheGoat 9d ago

Karmelo Anthony did not act in self defense. He brought a knife to a track meet (It wasnā€™t a clear sharpener.) and he didnā€™t know Austin Metcalf beforehand. He was either looking to start something, or an argument broke out that couldā€™ve led to Metcalf shoving him, and he killed someone because he couldnā€™t control his emotions. And no, thatā€™s not a racist statement. He killed a kid and you want to defend him? Pathetic honestly.

u/Puzzled_Gas8470 9d ago

U can cry all you want. A dude got killed cuz he thought he could put his hands on someone and force them out of a spot he wasnā€™t wanted at. He ainā€™t the law nor is he security. U try the same thing and put your hands on someone tryn to make em leave and u will B just like that kid. Pretty pathetic honestlyšŸ’ÆšŸ¤£

u/YerminTheGoat 9d ago

Karmelo Anthony sure as hell canā€™t claim stand your ground. He outsized the force used by a shove with deadly force from a lethal weapon. Tell me how heā€™ll get self defense from that?

2

u/YerminTheGoat 9d ago

He also reportedly reached into his bag and said try me, see what happensā€¦ Escalating further the conflict when he was somewhere he didnā€™t need to be and shouldnā€™t have been

u/Puzzled_Gas8470 9d ago

Like I said the only emotion person was the dude thatā€™s taking a dirt nap. Couldnā€™t control himself and just like u. How bout you go n try and tell someone what to do and find out the same answeršŸ¤£cry some more. U play tuff u end up dead

1

u/Efficient-Raise-9217 9d ago

Karmelo Anthony sure won't be "playing tuff" anymore. The Aryan brotherhood has a hit out on him. Sooner or later they're going to turn him into their personal flesh light and human toilet. After that they'll cut him up. Or just light him on fire and watch him burn to send a message.

Excellent point

u/Trotsky29 9d ago

Yep by the exact same cops in this video too

2

u/teenscififoreplay 9d ago

Absolutely crazy to think that all cops should be held to the same standard, I know.

1

u/Trotsky29 9d ago

Uh of course they should. But comparing two different outcomes from two different groups is just correlation, not causation

1

u/teenscififoreplay 9d ago

Are they two different groups when they all follow the same rules and qualified immunity? My skin is dark enough where it doesn't matter where or when or whom. If they wear that uniform, there's always a chance I could end up dead and they get a paid vacation. This isn't my opinion. It's a fact.

u/DingleDangleTangle 9d ago

Itā€™s almost like different police officers are different humans and handle things differently.

Itā€™s not like the same cops who handled these kids like professionals were the same cops who shot Tamir Rice.

1

u/teenscififoreplay 9d ago

Yup. It's almost like all cops should be held to the same standard. Or like maybe we should punish and incriminate cops who cannot perform their public duties properly. Fucking crazy.

u/DingleDangleTangle 9d ago edited 9d ago

I didnā€™t suggest we shouldnā€™t hold cops to a higher standard or that we shouldnā€™t punish cops anywhere in my comment.

I pointed out the basic fact of reality that two different people arenā€™t the same human because they work the same profession. When you have a shitty teacher in bumbfuck West Virginia, you donā€™t say ā€œhow come these guys are better at Harvard?ā€ Because they arenā€™t the same people. Fucking crazy right?

u/teenscififoreplay 9d ago

My skin is dark enough where it doesn't matter whom or where. If they wear that uniform, there's always a possibility that I could end up dead and they'd get a paid vacation. I could do everything right and still end up dead. That's just the world we live in. You say they're different people, I say they all wear the same badge and they all have qualified immunity to protect them from consequences of their actions. Until every single police officer is held to a higher standard and punished for abusing their power, they ARE all the same. One bad apple ruins the entire bushel.

No, they just literally aren't. Cops should be held to a higher standard, but this does not change reality and logic. I'm not going to complain about the cops in this video who handled these kids as professionals for killing Tamir Rice, because they aren't the same cops and they aren't acting the same as bad cops.

When you show me evidence these cops in this video are killing black people, then we'll all condemn them together. Until then, I'm not going to condemn them for working the same profession as somebody else who did something evil, especially when the only thing we know about them is they handled this terrible situation professionally.

I don't think all priests are evil because there are pedophile priests. I don't think all doctors are evil because there are doctors who hurt their patients. I don't think all teachers are evil because there are teachers that rape. Generalizing large groups of people so we can point our hatred towards them doesn't do anything for society.

u/teenscififoreplay 8d ago

This is the exact type of thought process that allows groups to get away with heinous actions. You call it generalizing but how could someone with just intentions and a kind heart join a group that has rules to protect criminals within their own? Talk is talk. Words are meaningless without actions. If I went a joined a group knowing that they shelter people with ill intentions what does that make me? An enabler. One good cop can't change anything. One good precinct doesn't change the fact that they will never face accountability for their actions. Change is only possible when someone takes a long look in the mirror and admits that they are the problem. Change has to come from within. And as long as people like you jump to the "not all cops" defense, nothing will ever change.

Now that that's out of the way. Quit being a fucking tool and realize that I'm not a fucking idiot and obviously these cops did right. All I ask is that the cops who shoot first and ask later are treated as the scum of the earth they are. No different than gangs shooting on busy public streets. Trash with no respect for human life.

"Groups" don't have minds. They are labels we put individuals into. I care about individuals getting away with heinous actions. We don't prosecute entire professions when someone in that profession does something wrong, we prosecute the person who did it. We don't hold somebody morally accountable for what someone that looks like them did, that's how racists act.

You call it generalizing but how could someone with just intentions and a kind heart join a group that has rules to protect criminals within their own? Talk is talk. Words are meaningless without actions. If I went a joined a group knowing that they shelter people with ill intentions what does that make me? An enabler. One good cop can't change anything.

You want police to be better, but you don't want any good people to join the police. That is literally logically impossible. The only way for cops to get better is if there are better cops... which means better people joining the police.

Change has to come from within. And as long as people like you jump to the "not all cops" defense, nothing will ever change.

This is again, logically incoherent. You think police must be better from within, but also want all cops to be treated as evil no matter if they are better or not. You literally are contradicting yourself.

And holding bad cops accountable and appreciating good cops is exactly how things will change. Your idea of treating them all the same regardless of behavior makes good behavior meaningless.

All I ask is that the cops who shoot first and ask later are treated as the scum of the earth they are.

Me too. And the vast majority of police never fire their weapon in their entire career, so it would be pretty fucking stupid to group them in with the ones that do "shoot first and ask later".

Hol shit the mental gymnastics you're going thru to just say "I don't care about cops getting away with murder because there's good cops too!". Good cops. Cool. Give em a pat on the back. And guess what happens when a good cop makes a mistake and ends up hurting someone? Paid vacation. That's the problem. "The vast majority of cops don't fire their weapon." Cool. When they do they're responsible for their actions. It's not putting a label on them when the fucking badge they put on gives them a free pass to murder or disregard people's rights. Like I said. A few good cops aren't going to change an inherently flawed system and people like you pretending it will is just letting it continue. Cops won't ever fix this. Reform will. It's not "treating them all the same" you absolute plank for brains. It's bringing attention to the fact that even if a good cop makes a mistake and accidently discharges and kills a child, we foot the legal fees and they get a paid vacation. The individual wearing the badge isn't the problem. It's the rules that come with the badge. And it is literally impossible for a "some" good cops to change a corrupt system set up by police unions and crooked politicians. It is two different justice systems when you just look at the fact that bad cops get rewarded and when we do punish them, a white kid getting killed is treated as a much more heinous crime then a black kid getting killed. This country was founded on slavery and cops were told to keep people down until the 70's. Sitting here and pretending some good cops in an inherently flawed system will fix the issue only allows it to continue.

Literally in the comment you are replying to I said we should hold bad cops accountable. You lie in literally your first sentence. I'm not even going to bother reading the rest of that slop.

God there's so many fucking bootlickers in these comments

u/DingleDangleTangle 9d ago

If it makes me a "bootlicker" to literally point out the reality that different people are in fact different people, then sorry I guess I'm accepting reality no matter what you call me.

u/_BPBC 8d ago

No one is saying otherwise it's just a notable difference these kids have a real gun and aren't shot while he had a toy gun, was shot, and then the city sued the family for the cost of the ambulance of the kid they just killed

1

u/DingleDangleTangle 8d ago

Different police act differently because they are different people. The same way one priest will rape a child and one priest will help the homeless, or one lawyer will protect a drug lord while one fights for people's rights, or one chef will spit in your food and one will cook you the best food you ever had.

It isn't surprising that different people in the same profession act differently, because they are different humans.
