I don't buy it.

The need to have the last word.
The intellectual dishonesty.
The personal attacks.
The constant moving of the goal posts.

It's not there. Solid impersonation but missing the things that made Illy suck so much.
Thanks....i think. LOL

That's a really thoughtful response.

Great job!

I put as much effort into mine, as you did yours.

The police are dammed if they do and damned if they don’t.

I’m just glad the guy didn’t try to pay with a fake 20 dollar bill.

So, they are supposed to kneel down and watch while some people burn, loot, and destroy property, but it is wrong to do the same when someone else gets smacked in the head? #FdaPolice!

"Fucking Americans" right there.
I'm wondering if Hitler and Germany won WWII - If that's what most of America would look like in 2020.

My answer/s to your question - No, they are not supposed to kneel down and watch while some people burn, loot, and destroy property. Not too sure who feels they should. I know I feel they shouldn't beat the shit out of someone for NOT burning, looting, and destroying property. Like some of them do.
Yes, I feel it is wrong for them not to do anything when someone is physically "attacked" in front of them. As far as I am concerned it could be anything from a stern "Hey" to an arrest.

For what it’s worth, I think they should have arrested him for assault on the spot. My point is that you can’t advocate defunding the police on one hand and then demand that they arrest someone for punching you in the next breath. With no police, you either get your ass kicked or get out of there. There is no Option C under anarchy.

so now police doing their jobs is contingent upon how one exercises their freedom of speech.

Wow.

I’m just glad he wasn’t eating skittles.

What makes you think that "defunding" = "eliminating"? No one (that I know of) is advocating eliminating the police. So, yes, their job remains preventing bad people from harming good people. That does not mean holding ostensibly bad people down by kneeling on their necks to the point of death.

Arresting someone assaulting another citizen right in front of their eyes is their job. It is as much a part of their job as not killing fellow citizens.

Defunding means taking away military hardware currently in their possession and eliminating their ability to acquire more. Defunding means instead of throwing money at the problem spending such funds wisely so that the police develop a rapport with the community intead of an adversarial relationship. Defunding means police walking the streets as opposed to cruising in a battle tank.

But then I think I am wasting my time explaining nuances to you much the same way I did trying to convince you that hydroxychloroquine treatment of SARS-CoV-2 is a waste of time and resources.

OK, I wasn't aware of this fringe. But I still maintain that this is still a fringe opinion, with what I stated being the prevailing thought.

If I can guess, it's not to modify the police, it's reconstruct them from the ground up.

No. You own that opinion.
