Tough night in ATL, shitty. Lots to discuss here. But after watching video 10x, here is a tip. If you are pulled over by police, do as they say. It’s all on video now. So, don’t fight, resist, steal officers weapons, run, etc. All of those actions can and will put you at risk. This is not a color thing. I am sorry that guy lost his life but he could still be alive today if he just listened. Unfortunately he didn’t and the police used deadly force which I do not agree with but can’t even understand what that is like in the heat of the moment. Cause and effect here, one bad judgement call led to a deadly incident. I am saddened for everyone involved w this story. 41 shots...............
Boss reference, you think this is much different than the AD shooting, right?

Boss reference, you think this is much different than the AD shooting, right? Night and day. (Who is AD? You mean AL?)
Yes, totally different. Abner wasn't threatening the cops. Why they unloaded their clips and put 41 bullets into the guy while he was holding a sandwich (not a gun) is beyond me.
He was standing in a vestibule, unarmed, trying to bring his dinner home. 41 shots.....
The shooting in Atlanta was justified in my opinion.
The guy clearly wanted to do harm to those cops. How did they know that he wasn't going to turn around and give them lead poisoning? Taser set to kill? Did the guy have a gun on him? Nobody knew. The cops sure as shit didn't know.
The Atlanta shooting was justified. You don't try to go after the cops and grab their weapons. You just shut the fuck up and let them do their jobs. I woulda fired on him too, no matter whether he was running away or not (or was he just getting enough distance between himself and the cops to get a few shots off?)
Abner Louima and Atlanta are 2 totally different things.
Is it a gun, is it a knife Is it a wallet, this is your life It ain't no secret No secret my friend You can get killed just for living in your American skin................

AD = Amidou Diallo who the song was written about.
for ATL killing and for those saying it wasn't justified...just supposed the guy ran away, ran to a Walmart and stabbed 10 people dead. What would have happened if police let him just run away (as has been suggested) and he killed someone?...then what? And that is totally within scope, police had no idea of that guys history/background/sate of mind...sorry he lost his life but no way those cops should be charged w murder and no way that guy would have died had he just allowed them to handcuff him and transport him to jail for processing for DUI. It would have been over and been a non issue and that Wendys would not be burned to ground. Cause and effect....he started the issue and unfortunately paid for it with his life.
Interestingly enough, I just read that most incidents of that they turn violent (80%) the moment police put their hands on the subject. I guess that is when fight or flight kicks in....for future, I bet we see more training around that exact moment in the process. A couple things I noticed: 1) Police never told guy that he was over the limit and would be arrested, 2) Then proceeded to each grab and arm to put him in cuff....perhaps a verbal warning or more info on what was about to happen would have de-escalated.
Again terrible story, but please everyone listen to police officers.

Period. The end.
Anything else can get you killed. Not sure what these criminals are missing. You go after a cop in a violent manner, good chance you will lose your life. Atlanta shooting was justified. 8 days a week.
If I was a cop right now, I'd hand in my badge and walk away. They're in a no win situation, and everyone is looking to make an example out of them.
Let the ghettos and trailer parks police themselves and see what happens to the violent crime rate in the "community".
Al Sharpton can suck my dick. So can every other cocksucker that thinks the police are worthless.
You don't want to get killed by a cop, then DON'T GO AFTER THE COP. Not sure what these fuckin idiots are missing.
Only thing wrong with what happened in Atlanta was that the cops waited too long to kill that douche. Shoulda put one right between his eyes as soon as he raised his hands to them.
Boom boom, bang bang, lay down you're dead..........

New Twist On An Old Story....
The ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER This one is a little different ...
Two Different Versions ... Two Different Morals OLD VERSION The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold. MORAL OF THE OLD STORY: Be responsible for yourself!
MODERN VERSION The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving. CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green'
Occupy the Anthill stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the Black Lives Matter group singing, We shall overcome. Then Reverend Al Sharpton has the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper while he damns the ants. He later appears on MSNBC to complain that rich people do not care. Former President Obama condemns the ant and blames Donald Trump, President Bush 43, President Bush 41, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the grasshopper's plight. Nancy Pelosi & Chuck Schumer exclaim in an interview on The View that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share. Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer.
The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having; nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government Green Czar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and given to the grasshopper.
The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn't maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again. The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the ramshackle, once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood. The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote in 2020.
I've sent this to you because I believe that you are an ant not a grasshopper!
Make sure that you pass this on to other ants. Don't bother sending it on to any grasshoppers because they wouldn't understand it, anyway.

In the good news dept, SCOTUS has ruled that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which makes it illegal for employers to discriminate because of a person's sex, also covers sexual orientation and transgender status. And the decision was written by a Trump appointee so everyone wins!

#CancelYale is interesting.
Using the leftist cancel culture playbook against the elite ivy universities and then watching the blue checks lose it...
Saul Alinsky tactic #4 - Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
I suggest Jesse Kelly @jessekellydc as a good follow in the twitter cesspool.
