Yeah, they're bullies. They want to beat/kill unarmed minorities and college students for "not respecting their authority" (exercising their constitutional rights), not actually uphold the law. Cowards...

Cops are gutless cowards who can only punch down on people who can't fight back; as soon as they meet someone who poses even a slight threat they cower away.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago

They are bullies. And bullies love punching down.

Hollywood spread police propaganda for decades about cops and detectives that are heroes, when in reality the majority are out of shape bullies.

College protesters should have guns.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

everyone should have guns.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

I mean sure but then we are absolutely asking for a massacre and internal war.

Guns only work if you are willing to use them. And once we are, we are saying we don't find police presence valid and the state comes crashing down upon you to end your pitiful existence for posing an internal threat.

We are a country with essentially a bad auto-immune disease that attacks whatever it deems as foreign.

The red hat morons had guns at all their protests and they were allowed to protest as long as they wanted, since police didn't want to escalate.

Meanwhile peaceful, unarmed protesters get pounded into the ground

🤔

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

Most of them weren't willing to use them and were left alone because the cops were in civilian clothes and busy... You know, doing something other than police work in the exact same area for some reason.

And again what's seen as foreign.
Complaining about us stomping others by being a nuisance is against the people that just want us to shut up and get in line.
Complaining that we aren't stomping hard enough and not enough people is just constructive criticism.

The current goal is to keep things exactly as they are or with more oppression as needed keep it static.

The left can bring guns but it won't change anything other than maybe slightly more likely to die by a cop's hand unless they are willing to use them and once that starts it's will be a lot tougher because we are on the side of change, which must be crushed by the current system.

That's how it is.

Not at all wrong. I hate to use this word because it denigrates our wonderful lady friends (both bio and of choice), but cops are pussies. Like the ultimate ones. "look at me! I'm a badass cop gonna violate your rights! Back the Blue!" Let's see what my lawyer has to say about your "badassery". I thought so, bitch. Here's a coupon code for Dunkin. Go away.

You could have just said coward and then you wouldnt need to justify derogatory gender-oriented language

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'm almost positive the use of the word to call someone a coward has nothing to do with a vagina.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Precisely. Someone understands cultural context of words.

If you call a cop a "coward", it means nothing. Because coward is a culturally dead word in an archaic sense. But if you call them a "pussy" then the meaning and cultural power behind the word changes. Medieval knights can be cowards. But cops are pussies.

Also I'm less likely to take political correctness lessons from a dude whose handle is TIMMAY...the retarded kid from South Park. Also a culturally dense word.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (3 children)

He isn't "retarded", he is physically disabled. He regularly represents the voice of reason on the show. If your use of "pussy" is not charged, why did you have to defend it in the same sentence?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

To be fair the type of person that would use the word retard as a slur is the same type of person that would call Timmy a retard.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Uhh, do you think the show's creators meant to show him as "physically disabled" or retarded? What was the cultural intent on that? Again, don't play the culture war games with people who have zero cultural understanding. PC Principle is also a pussy. There ya go. Have fun in microagression and cancel culture land or whatever Marxists are calling it these days while feeling good for stomping on free speech while claiming to be about "free speech"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's good that you can read into South Park and understand it's intentions, but being an asshole about it discourages people from engaging with your worldview and only furthers the divide you sought to repair.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

IDK. Consider PC Principal for a second. He's a Marxist bro who idealizes every left-wing stereotype, who runs an educational instutition forcing politically correct language on children. You tell me what the intentions are, since you are so "woke". Political Correctness is cultural denialism and self-imposed censorship, instead of productive dialog concerning social issues. Since you like South Park, here...there are two people in this picture and they are exactly the same.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

You misunderstood me. I stopped caring about what you are saying because you are going out of your way to be belligerent.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Pussy comes from the word pusillanimous, which means coward, you're the one making the connections here

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

They literally said that they prefer not to use the word due to the perceived denegration of women, so I dont cosider your point valid.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

The solution is clear, protesters and school shooters need to put aside their differences and team up.

I am basically afraid of getting on some kind of dissenter's list by up voting this one.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

The only way to beat this is to (up)vote

[–] [email protected] 29 points 6 months ago

You're already on a couple lists, probably. Might as well join one of the cool ones

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 months ago (1 children)

If up voting this gets you on the list, then so does commenting on it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That's right. Now is that a typo or is Villiam your real name?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

I don't answer questions. Am I being detained or am I free to go?

[–] [email protected] 69 points 6 months ago

Never forget that CA governor Ronald Reagan pushed for a law against folks exercising their second amendment rights to bear arms while patrolling and protecting their communities.

Those folks? The Black Panthers.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulford_Act

Both Republicans and Democrats in California supported increased gun control, as did the National Rifle Association of America.

They’re just like the IDF. They can only fight unarmed women and children.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago

Source, if anybody questions that fact.
