James Holems did not point his gun at cops. When confronted by cops he complied and was taken peacefully...
So why is this the single dumbest thing you've ever said?
Because your an idiot if you think tamir or James' crimes had ANYTHING to do with their outcomes.
Tamir died because the cop thought he was going to be shot/killed by a 1911 .45 semi automatic.
James lived because he folded like a house of cards. when he was told to do X he did not scream at the cops he did not pull a gun from his belt. He did what he was told when he was told.
That is my whole point. Let the cops have control of the situation and even if you are arrested you will live. Fight a cop go for a gun (real or not) and you die.
Why is it 95% of the population understands this, and 5% think this is too much to ask?
Sometimes this is measure by how much common sense you use, and this is where intelligence isn't really needed. For example:
1. Common sense tells you not to cross the roads when there is traffic, as this is punishable as a crime as you know, jaywalking. Why, because your life is in danger and common sense should tell people that crossing a busy street is not the right thing to do.
2. Common sense tells you to use a bic razor or a Gillette Mach 3 razor to shave and not a Stanley Knife because it is dangerous.
3. Common sense tells you not to throw aerosols into a bonfire because they explode.
4. Common sense tells you not to put a bottle of soda into a freezer because it will explode.
5. Common sense tells you to not drink and drive because it is dangerous, the same for drugs and driving with a telephone in the hand.
6. Common sense tells you to have a demonstration peacefully rather than violent.
7. Common sense tells you that when you have a gun, a knife or you are being aggressive to a person in authority, you are tempting fate. When a policeman or policewoman for that matter, tells you what to do, you listen carefully and do what they say. It could possible mean the difference between sleeping on a nice comfy bed with the woman of your dreams, or, a nice cold slab of marble where you will never wake up.
As I mentioned in one of my earlier posts, I couldn't give a rats ass how bad some cops are, as long as there are cops on the streets. I mean, they could just turn around and say "stick the job." Imagine a world without the police and no law and order. Anyone can walk into your house and take what they want, steal your car, murder anyone they wish, knowing full well they can get away with it. Question is, will the liberals be siding with those who have no respect for law and order and take what they please, or will they be begging on their knees for law and order to be restored? I know the response even if it doesn't happen, they would want the law and order to be reinstated.
