since every political poll has the right wing side winning (including this poll, did you eve look at the results?) id say its overrun with right wing. either that or its the same right wing people with multiple accounts voting over and over again
The poll has unnecessary fluff to it. He deserves his medical bills and the cop being fired but they don't deserve to lose all their money in this case. adjl posted...
Again, you really shouldn't have to try this hard to seem smarter than Duckbear, and you especially shouldn't be failing so hard to do so. No, that's not a proper place to put a period, but you shouldn't be rendered so incapable of understanding what's very obviously being said by a bit of misplaced punctuation.
There are countless stories and videos out there of police full-on assaulting people who are not in any way being violent. If it were just collateral damage from handling violent riots, sure, but that's very much not what's happening at most of these protests. Heck, there's ample evidence out there of police themselves smashing windows to give themselves justification to start responding to peaceful protests violently. In many cases, police are the ones instigating violence.
Furthermore, regardless of the challenges of crowd control, there is absolutely no situation in which a police officer is justified in firing a rubber bullet point blank at somebody's junk. That's not crowd control, that's not dealing with a difficult situation, that's not restraining somebody who needs to be arrested, that's "I'm angry so I'm going to hurt you now." A civilian would be convicted of attempted murder for what he did, no questions. This is exactly the sort of behaviour these protests are complaining about, and displaying exactly that behaviour in dealing with protests against it really isn't helping their case.

You're letting yourself get played.
Yeah that building with the child inside it was only a conspiracy theory. ---
