Originally posted by rogue06 View PostSure, let's go for it. With roughly 80% of blacks opposed to the idea this should be an eye-opener for the radical left. Then of course, they aren't putting these things up for a vote but rather are making the decision for those they think are not smart enough to make the "right" choice.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostPerhaps I should have been clearer. I was noting that 80% of blacks are opposed to a police presence being lessened or even removed from their neighborhoods.
I'm trying to say it's looking to me like BLM is an elitist attempt to change society as they see fit and not what the people actually affected would want."For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings." Hosea 6:6

Originally posted by JimL View PostWho they are or what their ideology is, is irrelevant to whether or not they are correct on a particular issue such as police abuse of power. Your attempt to confuse the issue of police abuse, and injustice, with BLM ideology is irrelevant. BLM doesn't represent all the people who agree with them on this issue, that's just how you like think of and present it. Makes you feel better about supporting police abuse, stormtroopers and injustice, I guess.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostThe point is that BLM isn't really interested in black lives, they merely seek to exploit the situation for their own purposes. To advance they're radical Marxist agenda and nothing more.

Originally posted by JimL View PostThen don't worry about BLM, it's a free country they can believe whatever they want. This isn't about the BLM organization or Marxism, it's about police abuse, injustice and reform.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by rogue06 View PostA separate poll from last year confirms this one. Vox and Civis Analytics conducted a poll that found, by a more than two to one margin, black Americans support the police and 60% of them want more police hired.

It's important to consider the entire picture rather than selectively tout that which only accords with your views while dismissing similarly revealing polls that confirm a deep-seated problem that you and your ideological peers adamantly deny, like this pre-George Floyd poll from the Pew Research center:

Some key uncomfortable takeaways:
This quote in particular says much about the creepy things members like seer here have no compunction about saying since Trump took office:
So I guess one poll is legit and the other is a commie plot to put Trump-supporting Christians in concentration camps.Last edited by whag; 08-08-2020, 11:02 AM.
