[QUOTE=YCheez;46642333]My dad is going to Taiwan on a business trip and is cool with getting a few souvenirs. Who here knows any good airsoft/militaria shops there? Don't know exactly where hes gonna be though, but probably in some upscale business district.[/QUOTE] there's airsoft in taiwan?
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;46644382]Words and videos[/QUOTE] Resistance doesn't mean you can kill someone. The choke the officer used was entirely illegal. He killed the guy whether he meant to or not. I fell into the "in between" category on the Ferguson ordeal but this was pretty clear and completely on video. But take my opinions with a grain of salt. I dislike most police officers (not the idea of being policed, I love that. But that so many people stop being human when they put a badge on.) and it's unfortunate that so many share my mindset of guilty until proven innocent regarding officers.

I don't know why it has to be "black lives matter" or "mexican lives matter" or "asian lives matter", all that's doing is splitting up people who would otherwise agree. It should really be "all lives matter", and as a campaign it should focus on the wider issue of police brutality. There are plenty of people of every race who are killed unnecessarily by cops - shouldn't they all matter?

But unfortunately the media gets to decide what gets covered and not, so a lot people only see a fraction of a problem and are either ignorant to the fact or ignoring that there is much more to it. I wasnt trying to say police brutality isnt a thing in my first post. It very much is. But theres way more to it than just that. Racial profiling happens because, statistically, minorities commit more crimes than whites and are more likely to do shit that get a cop killed. This issue isnt just with the police, its with the people too. Maybe reorganizing the police force will help a little but as long crime rates remain the same shit like this will keep happening. When minorities commit more crimes and a majority of the cops are white, mixed race cops killings will still happen. Work to lower minority crime rates, encourage minorities to join Law Enforcement and fix the source of the problem and then maybe things will get better. If they do make joining law enforcement more strict and do psych exams, it may bar me from joining, just like how I got denied by any branch of the military. =/

It was not the motivation behind the officer killing, his death was a consequence of his resisting arrest. I don't know of any law where it's illegal for an officer to use a choke hold and considering he was not indicted I doubt it matters.

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;46646087]There is always Security.[/QUOTE] My goal is private security. Either that or FBI or Secret Service. Originally I was going to join the army to get experience for any of those then get a criminal justice degree while I was in. But then I found out no branch is taking anyone with any history of mental disorders or anxiety. So then I turned to Law Enforcement. I know a guy who was my Scout Leader who was a cop for 20+ years and actually owns a Private Security Company that I initially wanted to work for and I called him before I found out I couldnt go the military route, but I have yet to call him since. I may do that now...

I may not be doing anything wrong but for some reason I can easily see them coming over and me getting some silver bracelets and some gravel in my teeth. My father is a police officer and I once expressed my interest in becoming one as well. He told me "I'ts not worth it. It's a thankless job and some moron 10 states over fucks up, gets on the news and now everyone thinks you're the antichrist.". Those that actually take time and effort into making their community better and more trusting of the police are really great people and definitely deserve far more recognition than they get.
[QUOTE=Wulfram;46645847]When Al Sharpton gets involved and you see protesters with signs saying "Black Lives Matter", I'm fairly certain it's about race.[/QUOTE] This is the most flawed logic I've seen on this entire subject. Al Sharpton is nothing more than a race-baiting sack of shit who stirs the pot and keeps racial tensions alive because without it, he'd be forced to get a real job. This has absofuckinglutely nothing to do with race. Just like Leon said, this is a POLICE issue, not a race issue. The only way this could possibly be construed as a race issue is the unpleasant fact that blacks commit more crimes than whites and thus are more prone to be confronted by a police officer, which IMO still isn't particularly relevant to the subject of police brutality because there are still a shitload of non-blacks who become victims of police brutality. The real problem here has nothing to do with the victim's skin color and it pisses me the fuck off that so many of the window-licking mongoloids out there running around with signs are making this a race issue and blatantly ignoring all the people of other races who get victimized by police every year. It's like third-wave feminazi cunts pretending to care about equality while laughing at and mocking men, it's just plain hypocritical and one-sided.
God damn my profs are confusing as fuck sometimes. For this paper he said max of 3000 words, or 12 pages. I wrote 12 pages and it was like 4000 words. Make up your mind.

It happens to people of all races, yes, and them ignoring that is extremely wrong, but to say that the current situation has nothing to do with race is ludicrous. There wasnt mass protests when [url=http://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/Man-Dies-In-Dallas-Officer-Involved-Shooting-270705511.html]this[/url] guy was killed, despite similarities to Michael Brown (no weapon, not exactly clean, wasn't complying with the cop). Thats because that kind of situation is fewer and farther in between.
Just because a bunch of retards only care about their own race (or are just too narrow-minded to see the bigger picture, without any kind of ill intent in it) doesn't make the situation as a whole about race. Again, the real problem here is how the police handle interactions with the public, not about what color your skin is. Also, you just never hear about black on white crime or police brutality against whites from the mainstream media because said media has a blatant anti-white bias. They peddle this stereotype that blacks are the poor, persecuted, misunderstood victims in every single situation and frankly I'm fed up with it. I understand that hysteria sells but this shit's really getting old.
what pisses me off is that people suddenly are all like "police militarization is evil it needs to stop!!!1!!" because some kids who robbed a store got shot by a cop they tried assaulting so youre telling me it wasn't bad in the 70s and 80s when the war on drugs (which to this day is perpetuated by the us government) started the process, and it wasn't bad when the ATF/FBI used national guard m728 combat engineer vehicles and abrams tanks against the branch davidians, ending with 76 of them (women and children) burning to death yea bullshit [editline]5th December 2014[/editline] [img]http://www.ammoland.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Waco-Texas.jpg[/img] god bless america right there are people that think M4 carbines and MRAPs are what we should be afraid of. its actually much worse than that. there are many good people in military and law enforcement but there also many people in those entities that would not hesitate to burn down a compound with 87 people and just watch. our military has its modern war crimes, and our police have their crimes. you see these things just about every day. it is entirely possible that when (not if) shit really hits the fan, you will not see LAPD cowboys in multicam and AR15s going door to door, but you will instead see MBTs on the street and attack helicopters overhead. [editline]5th December 2014[/editline] i sound pretty paranoid lol
You do sound paranoid to the uneducated, but you're completely right. Unfortunately few people are able or willing to see the truth.
MRAPs, cops, SWAT and tear gas keep the masses in check federal agents and tactical teams like HRT, mass surveillance, and the looming threat of overwhelming military force keep the patriots and people who actually care in check
I don't think it's that bad. Ruby Ridge and the Waco were both orchestrated by the ATF which is a federal agency that really doesn't need to exist and constantly fucks up. They should have been disbanded after that entire shit show.
I'm working on a video that's supposed to have a nightmare part but I ran out of ideas. Does anyone have suggestions for really uncomfortable visuals?
a old wooden staircase that spirals up the inside of a tower and slopes towards the middle of the tower. I have a recurring nightmare involving that

[editline]6th December 2014[/editline] 20 children were burned to death by the law thats a big deal to me [editline]6th December 2014[/editline] but you are right it isn't that bad [editline]6th December 2014[/editline] buts its still bad [editline]6th December 2014[/editline] just not that bad u feelin me
T-17hrs to my math final and atm I am [I]fucked[/I]
The police have always been an issue, more unarmed white people are actually killed a year than black people. The police state is and always massive issue, not only that. It's backed up by a public who believes in regulating morality, and thus in attempts to please these dumb people. The government passes more and more of these laws. Through bullshit quota systems, good cops lose their jobs. All that is generally left is uptight dick heads with a thirst for power. Now give them even more jurisdiction and another quota to fill? What do you have?
does anyone else ever just go on a conspiracy theory bender every once in a while? shit like pseudoscience/history, out of place artifacts, cryptids, just spent like two days browsing conspiracy theory websites. Read about how the Ramayana and Mahabharata supposedly depict nuclear weapons and flying machines and shit. I downloaded both books and ctrl+f'd some passages and while it does sound like nuclear explosions in some instances, it could also just be someone imagining a "magic fire" type of thing. then i found some thread that was supposedly a guy that was revealing a bunch of information about the ancient past though remote viewing, which i guess is like the ability to "see" through time and space??? shit about how there there previous technologically advanced civilizations and how ruins are still scattered across the earth and moon.
