Good Luck in Minneapolis

Check out this website for those who don’t know who Steven crowder is. He is conservative but looks at both sides. He brings up a lot of good points about stuff. I can’t stop checking on his site to see “what else” happened around the U.S. each day. Sorry not trying to send people offf yer site but for those who don’t know who he is or what he brings to these controversies needs to take a look. He has live shows mon-thurs and always good topics with what’s going on. Louderwithcrowder.com

<br><br>Thanks for the heads up! I will have to check it out. For a few months now, I have been watching the Joe Rogan Experience podcasts. He has an excellent way of interviewing his guests, which pretty much run the gambit of everything out there!<br><br>-John<br>

All is quiet for now, I hope they are on stand-by, when the verdict is rendered I suspect there may be some trouble. -Mezz

Sorry, but I don't agree with this at all. Maybe for a white male living in a good neighborhood, it will work. But just google "police harassment" and start digging through the countless videos showing persons that did exactly what is said in the above paragraph and still were treated poorly, including pepper sprayed while not resisting at all, handcuffed and hauled away from their own business...etc

I have actually been treated VERY poorly by a police officer in Georgia. I was perfectly calm, respectful and yet I almost spent the night in jail. No reason given and I can only speculate why the officer wanted to do that. Thankfully a level officer of the court stopped that and gave the cop a bit of a chewing out as I walked away. For the record. I was caught speeding and admitted to it.

Please understand when I say what I have said, I believe the vast majority of police are wonderful people, honorable and do their job with the utmost respect for the citizens. I have several friends who are LEO's and they are top notch people. I also understand that the current state of affairs has many LEO's on edge about possible life threatening attacks on them. But there are some REALLY BAD COPS out there. They need to be weeded out, fired or, in extreme cases, put in jail for these actions against innocent citizens.

But to generalize like has been going on in this thread and this site makes me sick to my stomach.

How about we do something. All of you preaching from your soapbox hold your stones until you are without fault. Might make things more enjoyable for the 95% of the other visitors that come to the site, but are afraid to post ANYTHING.

P.S. Euphoric1, I want to make it clear that my post was not directed to only your post in this thread. Yours just happened to be the unfortunate one to "break the camels back". So it was for everyone.

Folks, statements like these do not break the rules, but I worry that those who visit will think I condone them by leaving them up. I have been fortunate to meet euphoric1 and others and know that they are good hearted and generous people and I would also hate for some to get the wrong idea about their character.

I can't help but agree with your post John. The TRUTH may hurt, but the TRUTH is always the TRUTH. No way around it.

Agree 100%, John. For the most part, we have a police POWER problem not a police RACE problem in this country. Certainly not all just a few that ruin it for others.

I agree that the truth is the truth. BUT one mans truth may or may not be the truth, but their interpretation of the truth by the information they BELIEVE, to be the truth. Not all information being given by sources, be it media, internet, or social circles, could be or may not be, THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. May be only that persons interpretation of the truth, by the information they believe.
One mans truth, is another mans fallacy. Just because you believe it, doesn't necessarily make it true.

I go with the TRUE, Absolute Facts! As you said, The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Noting But The TRUTH! Not "Alternative (FALSE) Facts", coined by Roger Ailes.
