Trump encourages police violence

From the Atlantic:


...“Please don’t be too nice,” Donald Trump told an audience of police officers on Long Island in 2017, in a speech largely focused on the MS-13 gang. The audience laughed. “When you see these thugs being thrown into the back of a paddy wagon, you just see them thrown in rough. I said, ‘Please don’t be too nice.’”

Floyd’s killing has sparked nationwide protests, despite the fact that the coronavirus outbreak, which has killed more than 100,000 Americans and left 40 million without work, is still killing about 1,000 people a day in the United States. 

Those Americans who were disproportionately dying from a plague came out in force to protest being murdered by their government. 

Trump, who ran as the “law and order” candidate, now presides over the very “American carnage” he vowed to end...

Your point is what exactly? That the violence during some of these demonstrations somehow discredits the massive outrage at police violence against black people?

First

Your title of this post “trump encourages police violence”

By wanting to go after rioters as they are criminals. Obama staying that very same thing about the Baltimore protests.


Although Floyd’s death was all wrong and the police officer fucked up and he should go down let’s clear some things up.

Floyd was a career criminal in and out of jail for pretty much everything but murder. Every democrat wants to make it seem as tho he was harassed. Cops were called out to the scene because he tried to dish out a fake 20 at the liquor store.

The cop fucked up and should pay. But liberals shouldn’t glorify Floyd like he was an innocent god. And stop acting like it’s the 50s with all kinds of hangings.

Some facts that may give you a headache as facts hurt your brain.

Fact 1. More cops kill whites than blacks.
Fact 2. More blacks kill blacks
Fact 3. Police killings of black men that sparked fake outrage and fake protests all happened in democrat liberal cities.
Fact 4.Majority of protestors and rioters non black. And mostly white. So the question is who the fuck are you to preach.

If your so worried about black lives why not open your mouth? 18 black people were murdered I Chicago why aren’t you speaking out against that shit? Because you and the rest are full of shit that’s why. If it’s good enough to make a republican look bad then you dumb as liberals act like you care.
Save your anti trump anti republican agenda. Where is your outrage at the rest of the blacks getting killed in this country?

What does your white self know about racism? You have any personal experience? If it’s that bad go kill your white self so we can end racism it’s all your fault anyway. Kill pelosi while your at it for her fake ass staged kneeling in silence at the capital the other day.

Fake ass outrage

I'm not "glorifying" Floyd and am aware of his record, which people like you cite to somehow mitigate his murder by those cops. (See Snopes for an exhaustive examination of Floyd's troubled legal history.)

Chicago? I try to keep up with cop violence in SF: See this and this.

You apparently assume any white protest against racism is somehow not legitimate. Neither Lincoln nor John Brown would presumably get your approval.

The Republican party---that is, your party---has been demonstrably racist for many years. See for example Richard Nixon's successful use of the Southern Strategy in 1968 and Ronald Reagan's visit to Mississippi as the first stop on his 1980 campaign for the presidency. Gee, I wonder why he chose to visit the county where three civil rights workers were murdered in 1964? Could he have been sending a message to white voters?
