I 'll also give you some personal advice, no non-bootlicker preemptively disclaims being a bootlicker.

People here seem to think that anything that could even remotely be taking as being favorable towards cops is bootlicking. It's not bootlicking bullshit because the person that kills the burglar is not relevant to the charges. Moreover, it's not relevant whom Washington attacked; if it had been the homeowner that had been attacked by, and shot and killed Washington, the charges would have been identical.

I'm not in favor of the way most cops conduct themselves, but I'm even less in favor of being attacked by someone that takes umbrage with not being allowed to burglarize my residence.

I am not complaining about the cops' behavior here. While the cops are the boot a bootlicker shows their submission to the wearer of the boots; the US "justice" system in this case, not just the police.

I am not arguing that US law is not being applied correctly, I am arguing it is immoral as unjust. You accepting US law on this issue as just is precisely why you are a bootlicker.

I don't give a shit about your residence in that shithole of a country.

Life is much better when you learn how to live without bitterness and hate. There are only so many breaths we take, why waste them on stuff like this.

It's OK I can handle life fine. Do you actually have an argument to justify your support felony murder?

Dunno you sound pretty tightly wound up to me. You don't even live there, why are you so angry?

[–] freeman 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's incomprehensible to you that someone could be revolted by injustice that does not affect them?

I do think it's you that's wound uo, probably cause I mocked the US. Cry me a river.

You're seeing someone being human to you and perceive it as anger or sadness.

I'm neither, just being polite to a stranger that is obviously hurting for some reason.

Humanity is getting slowly better all the time. It's too slow sometimes, but things are moving in the right direction.
