SR, as far as I can tell, you just hate cops, or any sort of authority figure.
I do not support nor condone police killing citizens without proper cause, and by no means am I trying to excuse the police, but you don't even seem to take the situation into consideration.
With you it's always "shooting at / killing cops = good", and "cops killing anyone, justified or not = bad".
The vast majority of police are decent men who are honestly trying to do their jobs. Yes, there are bad apples, you can't eliminate that when humans are concerned, and when an officer does go over the line, as it appears has clearly been the case in Minn., the officer should be punished even more harshly than a citizen, betraying the public trust or some such justification.
But a blanket hatred of all police is just as bad as a blanket hatred of any other group.

hey you're not the only elitist - but at least have the honesty to acknowledge itthe officer should be punishedeven more harshly than a citizen, betraying the public trust or some such justification.
lol you don't even know your own system - elites get attenuating not aggravating circumstances

Spoiler:hoho! wait one - you know they always support each other no matter what crime their comrades committed right? this sort of omerta is a known thing in the US
As in that was not you denying that you support indiscriminate murder of police officers.
Just saying.
It appears, by the way, that the gunmen are on record saying that they specifically sought to murder white police officers, not just anyone in uniform. And white people generally.If Algeria introduced a resolution declaring that the earth was flat and that Israel had flattened it, it would pass by a vote of 164 to 13 with 26 abstentions.- Abba Eban.

btw whatever happened to guilt by association? usually it's considered very acceptable. or are the upper classes exempt?

(also why tf are they mentioning white police officers only? in the US non-white officers too have been involved in wrongful killings & are just as corrupt. if the shooters can't see that this is a class problem & not a race problem then it just confirms they should be treated like Isis rats)

just look at Kim & the north koreans - he doesn't need a god either, he is the god. lol
But blind, murderous hatred of everyone? Sorry, I'll pass on that.

Originally posted by Annoyed View PostAnd under what governmental system is that not the case? I don't care what system you have, there are always going to be people at the top, middle and lower end of the scale. And under any system, life is easier for those at the top. The only difference is what qualifies you for whatever position you end up in; party connections, friends in high places, money, whatever.

Originally posted by Annoyed View PostThat's one of the nice things about our system. A pauper can bust his arse working for a better life, and with alittle****load of luck, he can work himself up to the upper classes.
IRL he ends up as an 80+ year old pauper still busting his ass to pay his bills
(assuming he's allowed to keep the few fruits of his labour & the government doesn't take it from him through civil assets forfeiture, else he won't be the one doing the busting. one of the many not so nice things about yours system he?)
Not so easy to do that in socialist or communist system.

Originally posted by garhkal View PostIt was more than 2. Some reports put it at 4 shooters.. Apparently 1 of which flat out told cops he was there just to kill as many whites as he could, preferably white cops..
Seems it was one lone nut job.
