. . why we can't ever seem to show up for ourselves like big boys and girls

I have questioned this myself a few times and have not yet found an answer I feel complete.

Nowski regularly reminds us of the different natures of the beasts which I will refer to as blacks and whites because of popularity of the terms. Based upon my experience and observation:

Blacks generally are more excitable than whites. More prone to fear things they don't understand. Quicker to run in fear and fight in anger. This applies to educated and uneducated. Of course there are exceptions but they are so small in number they are not worthy of discussion. Consequently, when confronted, they generally react much more quickly.
This is easily observed on a basketball court. They are gregarious and usually prefer larger groups. I have encountered very few loners among blacks. Neither have I encountered many rugged individualists.
When they are grouped and one initiates some action or responds to an action it is akin to bumping a beehive.

Whites are gregarious but tend to have many more loners. Rugged individualists are pretty common. They don't generally react to situations as quickly as blacks and when grouped, if jostled, they don't strongly exhibit the beehive effect. In fact... when a large group of whites is jostled many will try to ignore it, many will wander away, a few will run and a few will fight. They rarely react in unison as do the blacks, especially if that reaction is beyond vocal.

Again... it is futile and foolish to point out exceptions because they are only that... exceptions.

Blacks appear to almost react automatically to any form of violence with violence. Not so much so with whites. Whites often have to be organized and almost directed to violence although that does seem to be changing.

Confronted individually blacks normally default to fighting right then and there with tools available. Whites confronted individually tend to (more frequently) default to retreat or some form of vocal resolution. Whites are more apt to return and fight with the legal system or with a weapon. I believe these responses result from social conditioning over the last 50+ years.

YMMV {but not much}

FYI if anyone has Snapchat- you can go to the map function and if a “Snap” is public you can see it. Go to Minneapolis and it’s red meaning there are a lot of live videos coming out.

I just can't wrap my mind around this...

I have been out of the game of taking people into custody for a full decade now. Even then, we were trained to get them into cuffs and remove them from the area AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE so as to not attract a crowd and ( even at the dawn of the technology ) so as to not get on cell phone video giving any appearance of excessive force.

We RARELY spent more than two minutes getting a situation under control and vacating the scene.

TEN MINUTES with four officers to get one person into custody is a complete breakdown of training ( or a total lack of training ), IMHO.

My first reaction is that this is indefensible.

So you think they killed him on purpose?
If it took four officers to hold him down, I will bet $1000.00 he was being very resistant to arrest.
He was killed while the officers were attempting to arrest him.
That is all anyone is seeing.
But what caused him to be put in that position?
Well,,, he was attempting to,,, or was in the process of committing a crime,,, and got caught.
It's as simple as that.
Poor innocent guy.

Bullcrap...

How many use-of-force incidents are you drawing on to make that conclusion?

I have a problem with this. The only reason I can think of to remove light is to prevent the recording of something they should not be doing.

If someone can school me on a legitimate reason for this I want to know.

If they are worried about being sniped at they would not want to have themselves illuminated.

MS, as a Minnesotan, what is your take on this? My son had tickets to a show in Mpls 4 yrs ago and we did not think anything of it till he arrived that day for the C&W concert and the jury was rendering verdict on Philando Castile case. I spent about 5 hrs researching every back road and bridge over the river out of the city for him while he was in the theater and every safe(r) rooftop bar for them to have pre show drink away from street level. I would have thought Mpls St. Paul LEO's would be hyper sensitive to this by now. I don't see this calming down Day 2 either.

Hi, HC. Please note that I haven't lived in MN since 2003, nor been there since 2005, so my personal experience there is out of date. That said, MN's LEOs are by all accounts getting more converged in the Twin Cities. Further, more and more of MPLS/St. Paul are less and less American. There are parts now that John Derbyshire and Colin Flaherty would definitely be referring to in their seminal works. 2316 Chipman Street is being built there as we speak...

Fair enough.

Were they not in the same danger everywhere else the lights were on? Or was there some specific information that I missed?

When I was on the job we were always cognizant of whether we were being lit up or not. I worked an area
where we were sniped at.

Yes they would be in danger where other lights are but you mitigate what you can especially if you are taking incoming rounds or rounds are popping off and you know it's not your side doing the shooting.

Next time I run into Capt. Mitch who is EPD's training chief I WILL ask what securing technique is it they were using when they put guy ALMOST under their SUV and stuck knees against his back and neck. against the SUV.

Social distancing, people!!!

That’s what ticks me off. Television news was filled with happy swimmers yesterday, not wearing masks IN THE WATER (which I want to know, are those idiotic commentators serious about that?), and yet tens of thousands of rioters show up to destroy stuff, packed in there cheek by jowl, and it’s okay?

Where’s the talk about all the disease spreaders?!?! The ominous predictions? The slamming of citizens that aren’t following the rules?

Bizarre.

Just an opinion
Cop was out of line. Prior to my current line of work, I spent over 20 years teaching in the "hood" the worst of the worst ,last chance education, not ever allowed in mainstream settings. We were given extensive training on holds and restraints. Just common sense that a knee on the neck is asinine stupidity.

As for the protests ? Riots is more like it Hardly peaceful, already destroying property and typical BLM tactics just like antifa. The complaints of vs Michigan protesters who had guns is irrelevant, behavior is the key. Media is parading as usual. Protesting peaceful-bad whites.
Protesting with bad behavior- good whites/blacks.

Antifa- good whites/blacks

This is what will escalate an uprising in America and yet isn't the behavior of the protests being labeled by the powers that be inciting the whole problem?
If they are going to protest, at least do it the way that draws attention without destroying.

Everything considered, they still should not have killed him. If they hadn't Minneapolis wouldn't be a hot bed tonight, and we all wouldn't be having this conversation.

:(

I agree 100% with you........and my post explains that..........but this guy would have never been bothered by any law enforcement if he wasn't doing anything against the law..............people like this guy just don't care that any laws exist when it comes to their dysfunctional ability to manage themselves beyond a tribal existence.

Mike Yon thought that Hong Kong was going to be the flashpoint.

Minneapolis may well beat them to it.
Minn may well be the flash-point that VA and NC and Georgia are aspiring to.

And it is LONG PAST the start of Marching Season.
I am just glad it is not us in Brunswick after that dumb ass shooting.

What you mean is that Whites will react in a planned manner that will end the resolution as when we do come back it is to kill everything we meet. We play to win.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Amaud's deal is on deck for later in the summer after the trial. Looks like the betting is about 50-50 as to a conviction...
At this point they have almost everything lined up for a conviction. I expect a pleading out at some point.
