You will not find one post here where anyone said "he deserved to be "murdered"" There wasn't even a post "absolving" anyone for what happened. Please look back from the very beginning of this thread.. let us know what you find.

Whatever happened to attacking the MESSAGE, versus attacking the MESSENGER?

A sure sign someone is losing an argument when they resort to ad hominem attack. :ohdear:

I have no idea what part of Ms. Owens' message, if any, you disagree with. It appears you agree with her message, but don't "like" her as a person. Have I got that right?

Same thing... you're attacking the MESSENGER, not the MESSAGE.

What part of her message, besides the fentanyl intoxication, do you disagree with? It was an 18-minute video and she asserted many points, yet I haven't heard anything you disagree with.

Why argue with these folks? They don't accept reason. Your reminder above has been stated many times. They ask for proof and it is given and they don't accept. They feel free to malign persons with a different position. Not willing to admit that other persons are entitled to their opinions.

I am starting to agree with Vatican's Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò. Oh wait, now they will say he has no credibility.

Ignorance
 

When any individual refuses to listen to another’s opinion, that individual is practicing willful ignorance.

I don't remember the current reaction to:


'''You'''re gonna kill me!''': Dallas police body cam footage reveals the final minutes of Tony Timpa'''s life

That’s because the national news networks never even picked up the story. It didn’t fit their narrative of police brutality against blacks. It’s not what they want us to be outraged about. Statistics don’t support the media’s drivel, but they will continue to push their agenda.

I agree, but what does starting fires & looting have to do with protesting. I thought protesting was about not agreeing with something that’s going on or something said or done, not breaking into stores & stealing or burning someone’s livelihood. Now they want to defund our peace makers so these people can do this without resistant! Who’s stupid idea was this?

Do you REALLY think that anyone has been convinced by the demonstrations? I can see a heck of a lot of people that have been hurt by it. Has anyone really changed their mind? Doubtful is the correct answer.

Owens is also a well educated person. So, just because she is black that she is not educated? Or, is it ALL conservatives are labeled as uneducated?

Having a lot of people protest only means that THEY have a problem with something, not that they are necessarily right or wrong for that matter. I am sure you would agree with that premise?

The COP may or may not be a criminal. That is for the courts to decide. Just as some wished that Floyd would have had a day in court (to add to the infinite amount he already has under his belt). Floyd was a criminal also, in case you forgot. And that seems to be the case with many that jumped on the band wagon to martyr him.

The point of Owens spouting stuff that is "offensive" is an opinion. And like something else a person has.....the saying goes "everyone has one." I find her to be intelligent and refreshing. I find there to be hope for America as long as folks of color are willing to be open minded about the REAL problem with race relations in America. As revealed by this incident, non-blacks are willing to be open minded or empathize, at least. Believe it or not, it is not totally the "white man's" fault.

She made a statement of fact and those that do not like the facts, deny them. Not agreeing with an opinion is normal, but to deny facts is ignorance.

Regarding "mainstream media" I beg to differ. They are OFTEN wrong. Being "usually right" does not say much for media that is supposed to report facts.

Liberals idea to defund the law enforcement. And the rest of us have to share the rotten fruits of their stupidity. It is the story of America. Pretty soon, America is going to be all out of resources with the ability to ward off STUPID and then it will just become a failed banana republic, or should I say elitist run socialist dictatorship. Sorry for the rant. My only excuse is that I have limited patience with Stupid ideas about reducing the effectiveness of law enforcement.

So why folks out demonstrating about white on white murder? Why don't they start a White Lives Matter protest? I think the point they were trying to make is that there is way more black on black killings than white on black killings. Correct me if I am wrong, but that really isn't that difficult to understand. I went to the FBI website to fact check and it really is true.

Having dealt with individuals that were under the influence of strong drugs such as PCP, I know that it takes more than one to subdue the person being arrested. They are dangerous and those emergency responders are taught to put him on the ground first in order to get control of him. I am not excusing improper handling of the suspect, but I can see how on rare occasions someone can be injured or even killed. Improper handling is NOT murder unless done purposely. I believe that a court of law is the one to judge those men, not the media and definitely not us, based on limited information. Everyone says that Floyd deserved to have yet another trial before judged and I agree. I also feel that we should wait for a court judgement before we armchair convict four police officers. I would definitely like to see the perp that shot and killed Capt Dorn, arrested and court judges. Society will miss Capt Dorn, I am sure. Not so much, Floyd.
