What kind of individual man-handles a non-violent person over 65 anyway?

1. How old is too old to pull a trigger? (You are in TX.)
2. It's always easy to claim "non-violent" after the situation.

You never, ever, know.

Aggression and/or belligerence nets a result.

Everyone wound up safe.

My personal policy is that I will give the benefit of the doubt to any cop that is not a white male. White male cops I will presume to be thugs until they prove otherwise to my satisfaction.

An asshole.

Someone who beats their wife, slaps their kids and locks them in chains and kicks their dog.

And for some goddamn reason it always seems to be the fat-ass donut munching coppers coming across that way.

Y'know...I'm suddenly reminded of our favorite Chicago version of asshole white copper...the one and only Anthony Abbate. Big tough fat-ass Anthony.

I can't believe these guys stood there and let this fat sack of shit, cop or not, just beat on this woman.

A very close friend (who is not white) got ticketed recently for improperly stopping at a Stop Sign. He was driving a spiffy Bentley and the cop stopped him a couple of blocks from his house. The reason the cop gave my friend was that the car went over the wide white line before stopping. This is in a very affluent area with just local traffic. And BTW, it's a $200 citation.

I think this was a case of profiling and the cop needed to find a cause for the stop.

I think this country needs to have at least a generations worth of white male oppression to even up the score a bit.

Sigh...

You really just don't get it, do you?

There is no "evening up the score." There is no "making it better."

The only thing that fixes this is if many minorities -- today -- stop acting entitled due to what happened to their great, great, great grandparents.

You're an asshole but you didn't oppress me even if, conceptually, your ancestors may have. You get the moniker by virtue of what you are, not what those who came before you may have been.

Get a grip.
