Tucker Carlson talks against police brutality
Video
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Fuck Tucker Carlson.

Brilliant editing.
Tucker is a self entitled a-hole who doesn't understand there is a huge difference between the civil unrest of the abused, and the authoritarian rule of a police state.
You can't simply sell the idea of "just obey". Consent of the governed matters. Which is ironic because when Tea partiers shit their pants when Obama was first elected, they screamed abuse of authority even before he took his oath.
And that network has consistently sold nationalism and blind loyalty to authority.

I get that Carlson's a cunt and a half, but be honest - if someone did the same sort of editing on comments by Obama, we'd be livid.
Why is it ok to do it to someone we dislike, but not when it happens to someone we admire?

This is not on a personal level, so if Obama was saying those same words full of hypocrisy, then he would deserve the same edit to reveal his hypocrisy.

@Rev
We've spent half a century instilling racial apathy, not combating racial antipathy. White supremacists took notice, and tailored their recruiting propaganda to work in the context of racial apathy.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Maybe if there had been more protest of Tony Timpa's murder, reforms would have happened four years ago instead today. White people don't deserve a cookie and a medal for not being outraged enough to demonstrate after something like that.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Are you going to stand up and bark everytime you hear the whistle Editz? You're right, crickets, but why do you think we're hearing about it now?
Truth be told, the recruiters who peddle this don't give a shit about the whites™ anymore than they care about black people. They only care about a white man being murdered by cops when it helps them harm black people. It's a standard hypocrisy narrative leaning on the usual white supremacist victim ideology. Racist redditors and content creators pushed it, and since many people were saying™, the news just haaaad to cover it. That's the SOP, if it weren't clear to you before.
(A simple google search, btw, would have shown you that there has been interest and coverage of the incident every year since it happened, as well as it's constant use as white supremacist propaganda over the same period.)
