@Suzianne saidIt’s like trying to explain transubstantiation to a squirrel, isn’t it?
The word is breathe, dude. A verb. Breath is a noun.
And saying "I can't breathe" only requires an exhalation. If you can't breathe it normally means you cannot inhale.
Come on, it's just English. Even most 6 year olds get what stuff means.
😆
@moonbus saidTo put the altercation into perspective, sometimes suspects in that position will say “I didn’t do anything.” They would be lying. Or just “ say anything”, while the police officer goes about his job. If I were the officer, I would likely not hear What they were saying.

So that puts it all into perspective.
I guess Suzianne had to be there..
@AverageJoe1 saidAnd officers kneeling on someone's neck for 9 minutes have no idea of how that might turn out either.

@kmax87 saidYes, that was long. I would think it could be done in a shorter time than that. It could be because of all of the commotion, you will see that Chauvin is looking around like, what should we do here, people are screaming, all different things, and I have this thug that I have to hold down. I guess I will hold what I got until we get a grip.

I guess we would have had to to be there, maybe even we should be there to hold him down,…. what would we do. Looking back it would have been nice to cuff him and let him lay there in his stupid mess, as he should not have been there. He should have been home watching TV. Or maybe in church.
We conservatives are always amazed at all of your posts, which are defending the bad guys. I would love for one time to see you say I am glad the Police took that guy down. I say it all the time, but you’ll never say it. I wonder why that is , maybe the way we were raised.

Neither passing a fake bill or resisting arrest are death penalty offenses in Minnesota.
@no1marauder saidMarauder says that Geoge Floyd was not at bad guy. I am sure in his liberal thinking (so proud) that George Floyd was not a bad guy. I think that there is a rap sheet on this good guy, but not going to look it up.

Let's all vote, and of course, feel free to use your own definition of bad, as has marauder
@AverageJoe1 saidI don't think anybody right wingers decide are "bad guys" should be summarily executed. Neither did the two juries that convicted Chauvin.

You lunatics are trying to make a hero out of a convicted killer. It's sickening regardless of how you view George Floyd.

@Rajk999 saidYou believe in a bunch of bigoted stereotypes, not "facts".
So wildgrass is a black kettle. At least you admit that. However, I am not a black pot. There is no truth that can be regarded as 'racist'. People who cannot accept certain truths, they are the ones with the problem, and they are the racists.
If I say black communities in the US [and all over the world], have the highest murder rates, this is a verifiable fact. Fact ...[text shortened]... fact.
You are the racist for trying to pass blame on to others for the failings of these groups.
Outside of South Africa, there isn't a single African city in the top 50 homicide rates. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_by_homicide_rate
Right wingers routinely try to change to definitions of words including "racist". The Cambridge Dictionary is clear:
"someone who believes that their race makes them better, more intelligent, more moral, etc. than people of other races and who does or says unfair or harmful things as a result:"

That fits you to a T as shown by numerous posts here.

Are you for real. There is not one person that I know or that is on this forum that literally thinks that Black people are inferior in any way. I could keep writing, but you are full of crap and that says it all.
You should be embarrassed for saying something like that.. OK, be brave and tell us someone on the forum who thinks that Black people are inferior. You probably should not, of course, so reach out foranybody of whom we all know, like let’s say Billy Graham or republican John Kennedy, or Cronyb, or Governor Abbot or Mamdani….. oh wait, he thinks Jews ARE inferior so we’ll have to take your democrat off the list. 😆
So tell, except for the Jew-hating ma’am Danny, a democrat like you, tell us someone in the universe that thinks Black people are inferior. Can’t wait.
You need more holes than I do, just for the record.

@AverageJoe1 saidLOL! Posters like Rajk and Mott don't like being called "racist" but when faced with the most accepted definition invariably claim that other races are inferior in various ways and therefore racism is a correct view of the "facts".

Of course, Rajk in particular is more of a generalized bigot who believes entire ethnic groups are inferior to others and should be under the boot of their "superiors". That makes him closer to a Nazi than a garden variety racist though with a different division of inferiors and superiors than Goebbels had.

facts and science can prove differences between the races...acknowledging that is not racism.
you and your dei is racism in it purist form...you believe blacks are inferior and must be given an advantage
@no1marauder saidIt is not likely that anyone on the Forum, or anyone at all for that matter would proclaim themselves a racist so I miss your point here.

Remedies for the effects of racist discrimination hardly imply any race is inferior and it is disingenuous right wing BS to pretend otherwise.
