The majority of them have beards. Maybe that's the link. Facial hair must be the promoter of violence in the world today.

Reminds me of this Oatmeal cartoon.

Looks like the curse of the selfie to me. Your later post led me (eventually), to this:

Should you buy a selfie stick?

Terrible lighting! Why, a couple of those whiteys look like they are black! And who retouched the photos to put curly hair on those whiteys?

They are not all evil white supremecists (the white ones are - [grin]), but they are all stupid cops. That is why cops should not have access to riot guns and military equipment unless they are trained by the military on how to use it, when to use it and why NOT to use it. Same with their Glock 19s, Berettas, and Rugers.

With great power comes great responsibility; the power is the gun and it should be used wisely.

I wanna date with the cute girl. If that isn't a girl, I am either giving that dude a hair cut or I am half a faggot.  :-S

Surely it's essential for the cops to carry guns if everyone else is?

But I'm guessing it's the training that's the problem.

They didn't shoot him. They broke his neck. Admittedly, I'm not sure how they did it; but if they used a gun then I agree they should wait until the US military (that bedrock of not over-reacting) trains them to do it properly.

I read, but cannot for the life of me remember where, something about how the institutionalised racism of the US police does indeed include affecting the way their black cops deal with black citizens. It's a messed up world and no mistake.

What're the Swiss like? I suppose it's headline news when someone crosses the street without waiting for the green man over there. The Metropolitan Police are hardly paragons of virtue with this sort of thing, I'm just glad we don't yet need to arm them all.

The Swiss police use fines as revenue generation
(But since two weeks' annual military duty is compulsory for all Swiss men, the chances are that the police are trained by the military by actually being in it part-time)

Aye. It is old (true) argument: If we outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns.

Perzactly. Let's face it, just like in any area: There are good cops and bad cops. Good bankers, bad bankers, good lawyers and bad lawyers. Training would probably weed out the yahoos right off.

I know they didn't shoot him. The military also could train police departments how to properly restrain a suspect or perpetrator. The cops let their anger get in the way of common sense. It isn't the first time cops have mishandled and killed a suspect.

Is there any reason to believe that the military are any better than the police in this regard?

And therein lies the rub. Anger management. Seems less like a training problem than a personality problem.

BTW & FWIW, the reason IDGAS is the same reason IDGAS about the POTUS elections; it makes no frikkin' difference one way or the other. There's a real world out there, and for most of us it's the one we can interact with, influence, and be influenced by.

What copz'n'blax in the US do to each other is little more than a sideshow.

But YDGAS. You started this thread. Duh. I'm thinking you got self-esteem issues.

I was really just commenting on what was really just a stupid, inflammatory headline on the BBC website. I have to admit that I didn't actually read the article (too long & boring). So, no, IRDGAS.

You may or may not be right about the self-esteem issues, I haven't given it any thought.
