Illy: castle doctrine.

And “big scary knee grow” is a historical term I referenced, cuz the system used to use it to justify brutality against blacks, and it seemed to be happening here too. But sorry if I offended your fragile cracker ass.

No it's not. And no you didn't.

You're clueless.

i don’t think anyone isssaying the cop wasn’t justified, morally or legally

Errr.
Go back and read some other posts then.

got better things to do

if i’m wrong, then so be it

And yet here you are.

Also, using racial slurs is pathetic and he should be embarrassed. All the things you people beg pdub to ban people for and not even a hint of it when oussie has now at least twice i can remember used racial slurs.

You do you, but I'd recommended getting a grip, dude. As someone who has been called a racial slur triple digits of times in his life, I am constantly wondering if something is a racial slur and/or meant to be offensive.

ousdahl is not using offensive racial slurs, it is so obviously a comment on the dehumanization by whites towards minorities since basically the beginning of time. While it is quite possible that ousdahl's method of speaking, despite its innocent intent, will someday no longer be accepted by society (and I could even argue it should not be), the white guilt, white knight flag carriers are another annoyance.

Both your and ousdahl's respective wokeness can be appreciated, but being oblivious to something completely obvious is also not particularly helpful either.

sorry, but it isn’t worth my time to go sifting through how ever many pages to see exactly what everyone posted

Someone please give me an example of what we are talking about happening in a predominantly white neighborhood.

No it isn’t. In the time the peace officer needed to unholster his weapon, point at the assailant who called for his help, the peace officer should have taken the path “of do no harm.”

Mace, taser, billy club. He was close enough to do all of these things.

From a police policy/protocol standpoint, I am leaning towards this, or at least think that's the direction it needs to go. Less dead people.

But, again, if I am in that situation and a loved one is the one about to get stabbed, and all I have is a gun, I am shooting her.

and both things can (and should?) be true

i don’t think anyone is saying the cop wasn’t justified, morally or legally, but that nearly everyone wishes different choices had been made, by numerous parties involved, that would have prevented the loss of life

I think that is the perfect world scenario, which I do think we should at least strive for. Lot of factors at play in that.

Just because he is joking doesn't mean it is okay.

It is unacceptable speech by a white person. There is absolutely NOTHING productive that comes from speaking like that.

I agree, but I don't think he was joking.

Also, the word "negro" is not per se offensive. There are plenty of other words that are.

How he spelled it and used it is offensive and unacceptable speech for a white person. Just my opinion.

It was unneeded. The spelling. The word. All of it. He could have made his point like an adult.

It can't be! The cops don't kill white people.

How many pages of Illy trying to spin ousdahl's language as racist are we going to get here?

Over/Under set at 3.5

You're allowed to be offended, and I get it, and ousdahl has been an emotional grasshopper in this thread.

Just saying you've quit this board over the same thing before, and I just don't think mischaracterizing things is doing anything for anyone. Everyone got ousdahl's point.

Public Service Announcement:

Turns out our information this morning continues to be a little incorrect. Regarding the white kid with the knife that we took to Burger King. Well, apparently he didn't have a knife, he actually killed 9 people. Odd because he seems like a good kid, think he just had a bad day.

Also, still a couple unclaimed Caramel Frappe's in the break room.
