It makes too much sense to ever be enacted lol

Honestly the type of shit that happens in the states is straight out of a ducking movie in how ridiculous it is

Like that Conway and other senators being briefed on how serious the covid pandemic is and they all dump a bunch of stock with what turns out to be inside information

Public calls for a enquiry, and half ass investigation ensues, they all are cleared of wrongdoing

Like no shit people want to burn down the whitehouse etc Jesus.

This is so unfortunate. A proper movement has been hijacked by people that just want to see the world burn. Looting and rioting has NOTHING to do with George Floyd. I just hope that people start seeing this and refrain from joining in with these stupid rioters.

Minnesota Human Rights Department launches probe into Minneapolis police

I started an unmoderated thread in the NSFW section for people who want to share and watch the violence and deaths that occur with riots.

The thread you're in now is for discussing police misconduct and BLM.

Go post your riot porn there, mods won't be touching it.

An elderly black man is murdered from actions directly related to the death of George Floyd and you have the gall to describe it as riot porn? As a black man, his life mattered. Your mask is starting to come off.

I'm not basing the rule on the race of the people in the murder videos you're putting up. The fact is, murder videos aren't allowed here. There's a forum where you can share things like that, there always has been. Most forums don't offer that kind of service.

Come on I have just 3 requests: 1) Post your violence and deaths in the nsfw thread. 2) Discuss it in this thread. 3) Don't be a dick

How hard is that?

If you really care about that elderly black man, what are you going to do about it? You can share his murder video over there, but then what?

I just checked that thread you started Skinny. I take offence to you suggesting anyone on this site enjoys seeing violence and death as a result of these riots or any other incidences. Unbelievable.

Would the video of George Floyd's death go in the NSFW section if someone were to post it, would you also describe it a porn and suggest RS members enjoyed watching it?

Seriously... Political correctness on RS?!? Let's not take that too far.

Edit: You know what? I know you're just playing a game here but I'll go along with it one last time. I'll take out all my commentary and just say this: No grisly violence or death videos are allowed in the non NSFW section.

That's it.

He's right tho. Whether or not you have an altruistic view of the protests (which are in good faith), the reality is many of the protests have devolved into absolute violent riots, coupled by groups who probably don't give a shit about black lives, and just want to watch the world burn. To brush the violence aside or pretend it isn't happening is ludicrous. Saying "it's not all protesters that are rioting" and saying "all cops are bad and the system needs yo be torn down" together, is quite possibly the most ironic perspective to have right now.

Again we get into the discussion of paying an inordinate amount of attention to the violence compared to the cause itself. There are certain people who definitely want to do that, hell I've seen it on the protesters sides too.

I know you're discussing this in good faith, but I hope I can appeal to people that energy needs to be put in support of the cause, not just wasted on doing nothing other than admonishing violence. The protests turned violent in several places very quickly, and yes, the violence sucks. Real bad. People are going after the wrong targets, there are agent provocateurs and anarchists mixed into all of it. It's messy.. as revolutions tend to be.

But it's such a waste of time to ONLY pay attention to that shit. The protesters will sort it out if they can. I've seen footage of provocateurs getting busted and chased away by protesters.

At the same time, more attention needs to be spent on how the police are acting in these protests. How much are they contributing to the violence? We saw it a lot in HK, and we're seeing it here as well. There's some footage of "good cops" putting down their shields and taking knees... And then minutes later they're pepper spraying protesters and shooting rubber bullets at them. In my opinion, this is WAY WAY WAY more significant that ANY looting or rioting going on.

There's a separate issue of posting death and grisly violence in the non NSFW section of the site that I'm sure you understand (and other people do too, even if they pretend not to). So I have to keep it out of here. If you want to talk about the violence you see, go for it. I will disagree with you as you can see in this post, but I'm not going to stop you. Just keep the videos out of the main forum.

This song popped up in my mind today...

I think he meant it in a ‘I don’t approve of it” tone, not in support of ‘riot porn’

Remember the system being fought wants the violence. They want you to pay attention to the violence. If there's not enough violence, they'll set it up themselves.

So you post that shit but move the video of the guy dead over people looting $150 Sanyo TVs from a fucking pawn shop as some sort of woke provocateur false flag shit?

This thread is done.

I don't know why people are shocked/upset at the violence. The only way things get changed in the US is via violence.

The US got rid of England via violence.
The slaves were freed via violence.
Blacks got civil rights via violence.
LGBTQ+ community got civil rights via violence.

I know it's not that hard to understand. I know you're just provoking. I'll still respond in a serious way though.

No videos of death or grisly violence are allowed here

Videos of some punks burning an old decommissioned cop car are allowed here.

You know this already, but there you go.

Who the hell is 'they'? Don't tell me you believe that the police is causing the violence? You can't possibly be that stupid, are you? So 'they' are white supremists? Or are they paid professionals hired to cause mayhem by the Trump administration? Or just rednecks from Iowa? Or are they a new generation of Malcolm X followers?

are middle class African Americans interacting with law enforcement more frequently than their Latino or Caucasian counterpart?

ive spent chunk of time in the south and i find more ignorance than anything and that's where education can be helpful. I do think a dialogue to address bias is not only worthwhile but important..however supporting violence and being condescending is counterproductive *in the West

not always applicable if youre Caucasian in parts of China or Japan

wait, because they're white kids, they're not a part of the protest, and a part of "they" ….that's charlesincharge type shit
