Crime Ridden Memphis

[VOLS INC.]

He's a pompous ass hat who won't defend his positions

There are a few posters that either ignoring them or just not interacting with them is actually an act of grace and empathy. I’m being serious!

Still, regardless of what goes on over here, still easier to stomach than some of the posters in the football forum. “I’m not saying I’m not happy. I just think we should be up 70 right now on Bama. That’s all I’m sayin! They need to play better. I have high expectations ”.

Lol.. now that is funny lol.. I can get along with pretty much anyone.. but if I get mad over there and over here, I’m like ‘no’ lol

 

[Weezer]

Oh Pshaw he’s harmless.. sort of like me lol.. and I don’t understand why everyone is mean to Luther.. we don’t agree, but we are cordial about it lol

If you had to rank how mean we are to luther on a continuum, where would you put it? I believe the level of meanness in most situations is directly proportional to the amount of BS he is shoveling.

My favorite argument he made was the older you get the more liberal you become. As you advance in years, your wisdom increases and thus, you go further left. That was his argument anyway.

The truth is as he’s advanced in years his brain power is dramatically fading and his critical thinking skills are essentially gone (See Joe Biden for an example of what this process looks like). Therefore he just believes all the crap the left sells him on Msnbc.

You're better than i am, with a few of these a##holes in here it's hard to be pleasant.

...he said with a complete lack of self-awareness.

Sorry... you made that one really easy.

I would argue that is most definitely an inverse relationship lol..particularly if you have acquired any wealth, and as you have advanced in years, one would hope that you had…(done some wealth creation).. you kind of want to keep it lol… the exception is people who have not done that, and that isn’t a dis toward anyone, it’s just kind of what I have observed.. I anticipate being called a dumba$$ again shortly

Maybe it is just my naïveté, but I find that I don’t really care if someone disagrees with me on football, basketball, political stuff etc, as long as they aren’t a ding dong about it . (ie calling me a fu$&!ng dumba$$ as referenced above) lmao

 

[Delmar]

Well, when the entire squad gets indicted for murder, maybe it was time?

We’ll I wouldn’t call five of them “the entire squad”. I believe that group has done some good work in some really bad areas. And let’s face it, there are some really BAD areas in Memphis. But the pressure to disband them was going to be too much.

 

[Delmar]

The IGNORE button can be your friend.

You know that’s a really good point. I placed most of the tinfoil hat brigade on ignore and it’s been much better. You’ve only been mildly annoying. I knew when I saw the incessant re-posts to not read them. Now all you got is “go eff yourself”. Really tedious now. Time for you to go too.

 

[LadyVolette]

Okay, here is a new development per my husband, he is now seeing that many people are now saying that the police were actually racist because they were trained by white people, and the police were dealt with too swiftly because they are black..discuss…amongst yourselves… over there…

 

[hUTch2002]

Shake all you want.

Wait a minute. I’ve always been told it is considered “playing with it” if I shake more than twice. Now I’m confused.

Agreed.. they had to do something, quickly

Yeah, we call that a loser’s argument. I’m not surprised if that’s coming from BLM or other aligned, militant, leftist political organizations.

Idk.. I think what we need to do is everyone take it down to about a 3, and try and look at it objectively, if we can still do that Memphis has got problems and we can all agree on that, and it is part of our State, so we probably need to figure it out in a constructive way.. but I’m glad I’m not in charge lol.. but Memphis has also had problems from as long as I can remember, and my parents left when I was little because they thought it was dangerous, and that was the 70s

 

[DinkinFlicka]

1 spent 45 minutes on camera trying to de escalate the situation. The other was a decorated officer with a 20 plus year spotless record. Try again.

On a scale of 1 to "got dam," how many Bud Lights had you chugged before watching the video to cook up this hot take?

 

[DinkinFlicka]

Those 5 officers have been charged with murder. What else do you want? An immediate public execution?

Bring back the tar and feathers.

Realistically, take police misconduct and criminally charge them instead of suspending or firing them going forward.

 

[DinkinFlicka]

Are you smart enough to understand why it's a bs headline?

No. He's a copy pasta mouthpiece and mentally deficient piece of garbage.

 

[volgr]

Didn’t say you were patting these cops on the back. I’m just not a big fan of the line of argument that says “these cops are POS because big bad BLM bullied all the poor ‘good cops’ and created this situation.” Setting aside the fact that this was happening well before BLM existed, it’s a weird time to paint ‘good cops’ as victims

Own it, this is what you said..."Just absolutely wild to me that some people see this man beaten to death and think “well that’s what people get for being too mean to the cops recently".

If you want to debate the merits of my claim, lets do it, but dont just make sh1t up that I didnt say.

My claim, BLM had more to do with this man's death than systemic white supremacy within the policing system. In this situation the police were 100% in the wrong. There is no excusing their behavior.

I think I will contact Luther in the football forum, and tell him that many people miss him over here.

You have made me feel very sad at your decision, and it is a sadness that will stay with me far into the future.

and I said I could not watch it because was brutal and inhumane toward the end ofvthe video.. I think there is a lot of misdirected anger, and anything we say as conservatives or moderates is going to be met with ‘aha’, I knew you were racist’ or ‘you are a f$&&ing dumba$$’… We can’t win, it is what it is

Plenty of actual conservatives in here with valid grievances making well substantiated points.

If you can't also see a pretty obvious bundle of racist dicks saying racist things, that's on you.

Okay, I’m not going to argue, and if I’m being honest I don’t really read everyone’s posts, mainly just people who interact with me, kudos for taking a civilzed approach, it is also what I strive to do

BLM and white supremacy had zero to do with what happened

I wish I knew what had the cops so spooled up when they pulled this guy over, it was like he spit in their food.
