Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

It IS about time!

Many police departments have banned "chokeholds" and other neck restraints already.

Good, now can they ban shooting people who are running away unarmed, and shooting people for petty offenses??

If I can't shoot someone for Jaywalking, how can they??

Most pigs who become pigs do so out of a desire to beat and kill people. They live for it.

The system is designed to let them get away with it.

Have you known any police, in person? I have. Two of them were real standup kind of people, and one of them was a complete a-hole. It's not good to make generalizations, especially from a complete lack of knowledge.

Signym, shut the fuck up. There are 700,000 full time law enforcement officers and 1,000 illegal killings by officers per year. That leaves about 699,000 "good" officers, but the problem is the "bad" officers, who should be stopped from killing anybody. A similar situation once existed: 4,743 people were lynched between 1882 and 1968 in the United States, including 3,446 African Americans and 1,297 whites, meaning a very small percent of Americans were lynched or did the lynching, but nobody should have been lynched, just exactly like no police officers should be executing people.

So, you disagree with REAVER when it posts

Because as I read it, REAVER is saying that MOST cops like to beat up and kill people. "Most" would mean a majority, 50% +1. You're saying that the number of bad cops is a very small part of the overall total.

Signym, you know two good police officers and one bad officer ("complete a-hole" is your description). That is 33.3% bad. If America's entire police force of 700,000 followed that ratio, we'd have about 233,000 executions of prisoners by the police per year. If the number of bad police was 50%+1 (your numbers, again) we'd have about 350,001 executions per year. Fortunately, the policing situation hasn't gotten that ridiculously terrible because the number of bad police officers is small, but that small number is very deadly.

It's actually quite brilliant.

Second, through use of his sockpuppet Marcos, is able to exponentially ramp up his hypocrisy and self-contradictions by pretending that he's two different people now.
