Bodycam: Pregnant woman accused of shoplifting shot by police
  • Sure, why not take the handful of stories you read every day about bad cops, then extrapolate way outside that range and confidently declare that "most cops in America are bad people", which is 1) subjective, and 2) stated without evidence?

    The cops performing their jobs without getting into trouble don't make the news.

  • Bodycam: Pregnant woman accused of shoplifting shot by police
  • I love threads like this where I get to read all the insane takes from the armchair cops. You have the benefits of knowing all the after-the-fact details and not needing to make a split-second decision, so you think it's just so simple to take your preferred course of action. No, the police are not bloodthirsty murderers who look for any excuse to kill a civilian, but you paint them that way in your head to justify your hatred of them.

  • www.pewresearch.org Americans are divided on whether society overlooks racial discrimination or sees it where it doesn’t exist

    53% of U.S. adults say people overlooking racial discrimination is a bigger problem than people seeing it where it really didn’t exist.

    > Views on this have changed in recent years, according to Pew Research Center surveys. In 2019, 57% said people overlooking racial discrimination was the bigger problem, while 42% pointed to people seeing it where it really didn’t exist. That gap has narrowed from 15 to 8 percentage points.

    Trump drops 6 points in post-debate GOP poll
  • When so many people make comments like this and "basket of deplorables", is it any wonder that so many people are so enthusiastic about Trump? It's clear to them that people like you think very little of people like them, and they see him as "their guy". Turns out people don't like it when others make sweeping generalizations by calling them, and nearly half the country, evil.
