Have we completely lost our freedom of speech?

Watching too much Hannity there. The police as a national entity are an example of an overly violent group considering they can’t stop beating their wives and killing people they investigate.

I despise hannity
The police are probably violent because the job is one of the hardest in the world to do right. Maybe I’m wrong. Let’s say the numbers you’re eluding to, with respect to police and domestic violence, are genuine and to be taken at face value. It’s better to have a police force with some level of accountability than groups of citizens (ie armed thugs) roaming the streets and enforcing their own “might makes right” laws wherein only the strong get to say what is right or wrong.
Defunding the police is a bad idea. They need more funding because their training is lackluster. Train them in conflict resolution and give them proper combat training so they don’t resort to patently dangerous tactics like leaning on peoples necks. Increase accountability and oversight. But do not make their jobs harder, which willl just make the police more desperate and poorly behaved

— 5 years ago(July 07, 2020 05:44 PM)You keep mischaracterizing BLM on purpose . Every protest group is going to piss off the group of people oppressing them. The purpose of protests is to make people uncomfortable so government makes the seismic changes they are asking for. You want protests quiet and calm so you can ignore them.
The police don’t need MORE money. Their training is proving ineffective because of it’s quality and not it’s funding. They need the exorbitant funds they already have divested to services where it’s actually needed, like hmmmm Education. No country has a more unnecessarily militarized police force than the U.S. And increasing accountability doesn’t help when the lack of accountability is starting from the top and pervading every level of departments down to the lowest level.

You care more about Department stores getting windows broken and some petty theft than you do about a group of people being Systemically killed by the State. One can only assume stupidity, brainwashing or sociopathy when you prioritize outrage for the former over the later.

You just told me the looting and the blm protests were different things. Why are you conflating my disapproval of looting with my disagreement with the blm movement? I’m in favor of the Crux of the blm movement which is a push for equality. Looting does nothing to further that cause; I am opposed to looting and rioting.

Looting businesses and hurting people is not protesting. Those are crimes. There is a difference. BLM protests, loots, and has hurt people. Those are facts.
People have been killed during BLM protests, including black people. People have been socially crucified and fired from employment for voicing any semblance of criticism of BLM. These are not good things, Erica.
So you think we should defund the police. How exactly will we be instituting change in how the police are trained if you cut their budget? Why not demilitarize the police, keep funding flat and reallocate the capital toward training them in conflict resolution skills? That way you keep the police while killing off the root cause of police violence which is their inability to peacefully deescalate situations with potentially violent individuals like George Floyd, who was a felon.

— 5 years ago(July 07, 2020 06:06 PM)BLM is not looting or attacking businesses. Looters are doing that. You are conflating two groups that don’t overlap.
You can’t just assume people attacking businesses are BLM protesters especially since there are clearly agent provocateurs(Some police) doing the damage.

So why do blm supporters get so upset when normal people express disapproval of looting and rioting? Why is blm conflating riots with its own so called peaceful movement?
Perhaps because the looting occurs during blm protests. Maybe that is why, and maybe it’s not blm that is to blame. In any case, blm is capitalizing on it and it’s very hard if not impossible to differentiate the two. They’re now one in the same, unless you can prove me wrong (i am hoping you can)
