So wait. State of emergency. Guys armed to the teeth on the street. No arrests?

That's white fucking privilege.

arrest them for what, exactly? -- nm - groiny Aug 11, 08:27 18
- Silly groin...the suggestion is that if black people were walking around with legal weapons and legal conceal/carry permits...THEY'D be arrested. - Jim Aug 11, 08:33 16
  - Honestly, you don't think there would be a different police reaction to black people walking around Ferguson right now armed with automatic weapons? - pmb Aug 11, 08:37 9
    - I had assumed everyone had seen this video. Perhaps not. -- (link) - mara Aug 11, 08:41 5
      - I am just gonna say, I could make a video where I am talking to Jesus too. - groiny Aug 11, 08:46 3

        are we really going to go there again? - groiny Aug 11, 08:51 1
        
        This has less risk of a fight that ST can't come back from. -- nm - Roger More Aug 11, 08:53
      - Ah, sorry, already posted. -- nm - mara Aug 11, 08:42
    - depends, do the carriers have their pants pulled up? -- nm - groiny Aug 11, 08:41
    - I think a group of black men as organized as the Oath Keepers would have been treated the same way. - Jim Aug 11, 08:40 1
      - And that this kind of shit is their MO - they dot their 'i's and cross their 't's. They're not going to break any laws... - Jim Aug 11, 08:41

    - wow, that one video clips surely proves everything! -- nm* - Beaker Aug 11, 08:38
  - I mean, we have plenty of evidence that this happens, but other than that I'm just making it up as I go. -- nm - ty97 Aug 11, 08:35 2
    - the last fucking thing you want, is for them to get arrested and get the NRA down there full force. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 11, 08:35 1

  - it is shocking that someone carrying a gun legally has not actually shot and killed someone. - groiny Aug 11, 08:34
- J-walking -- nm - decline Aug 11, 08:28
There were over 100 arrests yesterday in relation to the protests. -- nm - Jim Aug 11, 08:22 12
- But not the people in the streets with assault rifles. (they also weren't shot on sight oddly enough) -- nm - ty97 Aug 11, 08:24 11
  - It should also be mentioned that, so far, none of the Oath Keepers have shot at the police. Or assaulted the police. Or thrown shit at the police. -- nm - Jim Aug 11, 08:47
  - And exactly who was "shot on sight? -- nm - Jim Aug 11, 08:26 9
    - Tamir Rice, a 12 year old with a toy gun in an open carry state. -- nm - ty97 Aug 11, 08:29 8
      - I got nothin' -- nm - Jim Aug 11, 08:32

      - can we just keep this to one bad cop at a time please? -- nm - groiny Aug 11, 08:31 5
        
        And this is exactly the point. This isn't a case by case analysis. The number of these cases is the point. And these are just people who get killed - pmb Aug 11, 08:42 4
        
        so the protesting in Fergueson is for the 12 year old who got killed? - groiny Aug 11, 08:45 3
        
        For the record protesting does not equal looting. Looters should be arrested and punished. -- nm - pmb Aug 11, 08:51 2
        
        I would bet 100 dollars that if you asked any one of those protestors in Fergueson - groiny Aug 11, 08:53 1
        
        I would easily take that bet. - pmb Aug 11, 08:57
