    I agree with JC, it does seem to tip towards them. Kind of like politicians. They get away with genocide.

    It will be interesting to see what type of following this crazy person had on social media and if anyone tried to warn authorities of his warnings.

    I heard that Baltimore police did send the NYPD a warning to look out for this guy. It just didn't get to those officers in time.

    i think the world would have been a better place if this Brinsley guy was taken out by a cop years ago. would have been no great loss to society. that's just my opinion.

    i hope the media feels some responsibility in these NYPD deaths for continuing coverage and perpetuating the myth of hands up don't shoot. never let the facts get in the way of a good story is what drives today's media. sad.

    NYPD Commissioner William Bratton said on NBC on Monday that New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has lost the trust of "some" police officers.
    Officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos were ambushed and assassinated at close range on Saturday by Ismaaiyl Brinsley, officials said.
    Before the shooting, Brinsley said on Instagram he was going to shoot police officers.
    On Monday, Bratton said that the shooting was a "spinoff" of the recent protests about the grand jury decisions to not indict police officers in the Eric Garner and Michael Brown cases.
    The incident has increased the rift between de Blasio and the nation's largest police force.
    It's reflective of the anger of some of them. There's a lot going on in the NYPD at the moment. Labor negotiations

    The guy couldn't even spell correctly the name of the person in whose "honor" he was going to commit murder.

    Thirty bills, "Pants up dont loot" is 1 example of the joking that was posted in the MB thread.

    I never saw that or if I did... I paid no attention to it.

    Thanks!

    Given that the c is next to the v i would think it was a typo, he was prob better at spelling than math.

    There is truth to what you say here although some might not wish to acknowledge it.

    The police have been thrust into the spotlight as public enemy number one and many fools are lapping it up and going all in on the notion- many even perpetuating it. The sensationalized cases compared to the amount of professional police work that happens daily are cosmically disproportionate.

    The awareness generated for police abuse cases is significant and obviously police need to be held accountable for abusing their power at any level; however, the majority of people in society lack a discerning eye incapable of critical thought and easily influenced by media dribble. The media has saturated such people with the idea that police have gone rogue and the value of the police and their typically exceptional work has been deflated.

    This manipulated loser targeted police because they were placed in his sights.

    In this thread, the problem is a piece of shit who wanted to shoot his girlfriend and murder police officers. Any police officers. End of story.

    The police have thrusted themselves in the spotlight as public enemy two behind isis and many fools are lapping it up and going all in on the notion that violent criminal thugs and the media are the real problem not police immunity to murder or brutality- many even perpetuating it. The sensationalized cases of black on cop crime compared to the amount of hard working law abiding black citizens are immensely disproportionate.

    The awareness generated and number of police abuse cases largely go unreported as evidence by the independent websites that specifically deal with police abuses that are left out of MSM. Criminal thugs need to be held accountable for their chronic criminal ways; however, the majority of people in society lack a discerning eye incapable of critical thought and easily influenced by social media and the latest cool protest movement.
    When cops kill blame blacks, when blacks kill blame blacks, when whites kill blame movies and music.

    Have you not gotten tired of the 'play-with-other-peoples-posts-and-twist-them-to-make-an-absurd-one'?

    Why don't your parents make you get out of your bedroom and go look for a job? Seriously?

    If you got a job... just think of all the Pokémon cards you could buy.

    What the fuck is the purpose of copying someone else's post?

    It's copying and changing certain words.

    Kind of shady to me - difficult to give credibility to anyone who pulls this without being upfront.

    I believe that quoting or reposting and then changing someone's posts is a violation of the posting guidelines and can lead to a permanent ban.

    Copying and changing another's post? Not cool. Didn't know it happened and makes a joke of the whole place.
