Anti-racism protests

Quoted from ska face

What a monumental heap of shite from Rick, again. If the person who wrote that is actually a serving police officer they should be removed from duty ASAP.

Heap of shite ?I think your just showing yourself up again Ska face and are again reflecting your character.You need some life lessons in how to to treat others .Hence I dont know how old you are but in real life some people wouldnt stand for your claptrap and do something about it.

Someone actually told me about the link that I shared .

Have you actually been in the police or the army.Hence if you was being accosted by a group of criminals or getting threatened by the Taliban would you run away or confront the enemy.Words are empty but actions arent.

Ska Face Rick is one of the good guys you are not .

You always revert to name calling when you do not agree with a post.

Time to grow up and look at other people's point of view ,you don't have to agree with them but you can reply with a bit of civility .

Go on you can if you try.

It’s a steaming pile of garbage, full of non sequiturs, incorrect statements and false equivalences, with the general thrust being it is OK to stand on a man’s neck in broad daylight until he is dead, and people can’t be unhappy about it because police are also sometimes killed.

Why should I, or anyone, respect that?

I’ll reserve my civility for people who aren’t justifying lynchings, if that’s ok by you?

What that policeman done was out of order to George Floyd and he rightly got convicted .Apparently though  in footage released on  body cam police that dealt with George Floyd were originally respectful but things got out of hand.




Its a tough job to be in though.I certainly wouldn't want to be in the police in the USA or here in the UK for that matter .Dealing with all the abuse and danger they put themselves under.Would you?Hence video below shows police restraint in the USA which almost cost them their lives.I know in this country for one police chiefs want to make it mandatory for all officers to carry tasers as research shows it makes them less likely to be attacked.

Similary the army is another dangerous job. Hence during the  troubles in Ireland  the  IRA use to use snipers to kill soldiers on patrol.

What are you talking about? IRA snipers? This is exactly what I’m talking about. You can’t address the issue without going off on an unrelated tangent.

You’re right, it is difficult to be a public servant in one of the uniformed services, one of the difficulties is not killing people routinely. If anyone commits a crime, they are to be arrested and punished according to the law if found guilty. The police aren’t there to commit extra-judicial executions whenever they see fit.

Iam addressing the issue but highlighting the real dangers our public servants have had to go through and are still going through .This isnt fairy land but real life.Of course your going to get bad applies which need weeding out and dealt with but  I think the majority of our armed services and police do a good job and need support.Hence its nice for one that the government are reviewing the case of PC Harpers killers and thinking of imposing tougher sentences for the people that killed him.Likewise nice to see the government imposed tougher sentences for those attacking all our emergency workers in 2018.

Perfect example - that garbage post is conflating the murder of George Floyd with the murder of PC Harper. The two situations are completely different, in no way analogous, but that post tries to draw comparisons between the two situations and insinuate that anyone supporting the former doesn’t care about the latter. And you claimed it summed up the situation perfectly?

The problem is that police in America are given so much support that they appear to be able to kill and maim with almost absolute impunity. The post stated that the officer was arrested immediately - WRONG. The police that murdered Breona Taylor still haven’t been arrested. What about the actions of the police during the recent protests? You can support the uniformed services without giving them a free ride whenever they step out of line.

There’s a lot of whataboutery going on. I’m not sure the big takeaway from the protests is that we need to feel sorry for and support police officers more. The police in America are hugely supported, have a mega strong union and generally the support of the public and politicians. They do keep killing unarmed black people at a disproportionate rate to White people. It’s a huge problem and one that people are rightly angry about.
Whether it is borne from America’s inequality or racism within the police force, it’s not right.

Thankfully the police don’t have guns over here and police accountability is better. We still have huge inequalities in the way people are dealt with by the police. It would certainly help if there was more equality in terms of opportunity in Britain.

See you can do it when you try.  


On this subject I agree with you. What we have seen coming out of America in the last few weeks is terrible.Shooting a man in the back seven times deserves the death sentence imo.

Another case a man who had a knife had to be stopped from going into a shop but they did not have to kill him a bullet or two in his legs would have done the job.

The police are there to uphold the law not administer justice that is the courts responsibility .
