Lt. Bob Kroll of the Minneapolis Police Department denounces Black Lives Matter

Yes...we've done that dance to death. Hell you may be posting the exact same handful of links that always get posted...the handful of people that show up once...in 2010...or 2007...or use a teachers rally...yes...they 'care'. It KILLS just how much they care.

You've been thoroughly bested. We're done here. Nite
 
No, it's Lt. Bob Kroll of the Minneapolis Police Union.



It isn't what's wrong with U.S. policing. It's what's wrong with police unions. Why should police even be able to unionize against the public that hires them to enforce laws? Even pro-union, socialist types have spoken out about the conflict of interest inherent in police unions and some (a UAW local) have called for their expulsion from AFL-CIO.

And much of the same reasoning that explains why police unions shouldn't exist applies to public unions generally.

I have mixed feeling on public unions. But I don't believe unions are the reason for some of the policing policies that BLM protests against. Regardless, I'm not a fan of the attitude this Lt. is displaying. And when people throw around the word "terrorist," it makes me shudder.

Bwaahahahaha!

The state of black Americans just **** on your sad little mic drop.
 
In this speech, this guy is representing everything that is wrong about U.S. policing. Either we make officers justify every bullet they fire or we take the bullets away. U.S. citizens exercising their right to protest against government is not terrorism.

And this "atmosphere" of fear and "incitement" is BS. People should be accountable for their actions, including cops.

I won't say that police are terrorists, more like an OMG.

You guys are just so cute when you shriek 'Racist!!! Racist!!!'. Adorable. :lamo

Well, you did say that "black lives don't matter."
 
Well, you did say that "black lives don't matter."
They dont. Black lives simply do not matter in this country. Thats a fact proven every day. Rats have exploited black lives for their vote for 60 years. Black people kill black people every day. Blacks lead the country in every misery index category across the country for every group NOT located on an Indian. Its laughable that you want to pretend that they matter to you.

Whoa! No wonder they left the Republican party in droves.
 
Or just the conservative ideology in general.

I don't think they were ever really on the same side as conservatives. Before the Civil Rights era, the vast majority of Blacks were Republican, the party of Lincoln...but they switched parties when the vast majority of white southern Democrats switched to the Republican party and made it theirs.

BLM is built on a lie. "Hands up, don't shoot" never happened. They ravaged and pillage a town over a lie. They are liars.
