I wouldn't be able to repeat this if it wasn't happening, laughing boy. Yes you would. Just like i can repeat the earth flat over and over . But the facts say otherwise . Merely repeating a falsehood does not make it so.

I know what your referring to.I was just saying it wasn't a very impressive comeback

-not that they'd call a shooting unjustified to begin with.
So, sure, we could go with 12. We could go with any number we want. We could say one, or zero. Part of the problem. It's certainly zero or approaching zero by the metrics police can refer to for justification. Another part of the problem.
It's not exactly impressive when a systemically racist institution that doesn't keep numbers on this stuff insists, falsely -or- truthfully, that most of it's shootings are justified.

OLB happens to not have had to deal with any bad cops and I'm sure a lot of people (especially white people) have similar experiences, especially in more rural communities. OTH, the cops in America steadily kill around a thousand people a year. I'm sure many of those are unavoidable, but it doesn't take very many bad cops to be a very serious problem. What's weird is that OLB seems to think his personal interactions with local cops trump anything else happening in the country.
Kill 1000 a year...
And ALL of those were unarmed people?
No?
Gee....
So you think when the cops are getting shot at - they aren't supposed to shoot back?
Let's quit moving the goalposts folks -
How many UNJUSTIFIED shootings a year?
According to this - 13 unarmed black men were shot nationwide in 2019..

And you pulled out the idea that I was claiming they were all unarmed or unjustified from which of your orifices?

I'm guessing this was created in opposition to my Blue Lives Don't Exist thread. Go figure.

...is being armed a crime? Should police be able to call a shooting justified so long as they find a pistol? I don't think our buddy here is being entirely genuine in his excuses for the un-trackable stat of police shootings. Probably ought to stick with the usual and completely legal explanation. The officer was scared. We send a bunch of trembling children out with guns and authority and tell them that it's them against the world and that they'd better be prepared to kill.
It's no surprise that they try. That's -exactly- how we intentionally condition state sponsored killers.
