Cops Who Shoot Share This Surprising Factor
People under thirty don't have the maturity and experience to size up a situation accurately and so are prone to making bad decisions. It used to be don't trust anyone over thirty. Now it makes more sense to say don't trust anyone under thirty. BTW, I'm sure shooting people in video games has absolutely nothing to do with this problem!

deathvalleyjake: Not sure what the reason is, but in my experience the younger you are the more impulsive you are. Not only that, but you have quicker reaction time and so it's not surprising that young cops shoot more often and more quickly than older cops. There could be a bunch of other factors that are relevant, but the video game idea actually does make a certain amount of sense. If you play video games where you win by shooting people for years and years, you just might become conditioned to shoot first and ask questions later!

McKinney Pool Party!
The media is attempting to push the narrative that it's all the fault of the officers, but commonsense tells us otherwise...

Apologists for Black Lives Matter
Some airhead tries to defend BLM and is debunked so thoroughly that her stupidity is irrefutable. Just goes to show that one should be in touch with the facts BEFORE opening one's mouth.

Race War?

Postby MojaveMike » Sun Sep 25, 2016 11:39 am

Clarke: Charlotte shooting details were left out on purpose
Is the liberal media deliberately trying to incite a race war? Not a single protest made by groups associated with Black Lives Matter has been a legitimate protest against a real problem. The perceived problem is purely the invention of the media. Stupid people are easily manipulated by big media and only stupid people are out in the streets protesting. The question is why is big media doing this? Why is the president playing along with it?

The Truth About The Keith Scott Shooting and Charlotte Riots
A lie can travel around the world twice while the truth is still pulling its boots on.

LIE: He was just sitting in his car reading a book.
TRUTH: He was brandishing a gun and refused to put it down after repeatedly being told to do so by police.
What do the protesters believe?
THE LIE.

The lesson that none of the protesters are smart enough to learn: DON'T RUSH TO JUDGEMENT. WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE THE FACTS.
