[quote=SK in CV][quote=AN][quote=SK in CV]So you’re saying that we can’t do shit about cops killing blacks at 3 times the rate of whites until somebody makes some noise about Chicago. [/quote]
Never said that, so stop putting words in my mouth. Whatever, I’m done.[/quote]
Ok, fair enough. That’s not what you said. Why do you want to see equal rage? Why is that important? Why do you think there isn’t equal rage?[/quote]
Well – there is a clear difference. Police are representatives of our society, employed by our governments and provided with special powers. They are held to a higher standard than the random people on the street. The San Diego police, for example, are acting on behalf of me and other citizens. Random acts of violence in San Diego are not carried out on my behalf, or on behalf of any other citizens.
Which is not to say that any of it is ok, but there is a significant difference.
