Good. That means, I'm being consistent.
Yes, consistenly laying the heap of the blame on the black community.

It's most probably controversial to say, but I don't think that the American establishment can undergo a change and total reconstruction only by conventional methods. Their roots are firmly at the core of a globalised system, which allows them to always have the power, the resources, the information and the leverages to keep the status quo.As one of the comments suggested, imagine the protesters exercised their right to carry such weapons?
Why would he acknowledge something he knows he's wrong about? It's not about a discussion. It's about sounding intelligent while never admitting you're wrong. That's the game him and others like him play.Btw I addressed your earlier post and explained extensively what causes crime in the black community and that there’s actually a lot being done. You haven’t seemed to acknowledge it or maybe you have but you want to continue to die on your racist hill...

It's great that a lot is being done but clearly that's nowhere near enough. And calling me racist isn't going to change anything.
Not a prison expert, but did a quick google search and there's ways of segregating prisoners from the general population. Seems much depends on the type of prison (state or federal), what his charges were and how far the prison he's in is from where he worked.
Looks like there's something called protective custody - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protective_custody
Also, here's some quora links that address the topic:

I'd imagine Chauvin would never be allowed to mix with the general population.

2nd Amendment was ratified 329 years ago at a time when Native Americans could raid up and down the frontier, offenders against people could escape justice for months because Law Enforcement was in an infant state of development and could be hundreds of miles away. Nasty Brits could try and make them pay back taxes.I don't understand how the American people see this as normal nor do I understand why they won't surrender the second amendment. As you say for a developed country this is unbelievable.
Another absolutely garbage post.The tendency to fear and expect bad outcomes from black people when you're walking down the street late at night is down to stereotypes but those stereotypes are rooted in real life experiences. It's laughable to suggest that it's just based on what people see in movies or TV. If you are much more likely to be robbed by a black person than an Asian, for example, why is it racist to feel more worried when you see group of black people somewhere late at night than a group of Asians or whites? It's just common sense and it's the reality we live in.
These protests won't bring any real change because they only concentrate on the faults of the system and how it acts towards black population. They completely ignore the other side of the equation which is black urban community and its failings. Poverty, drug dealing, gang culture and violence are rampant in many neighborhoods where African-Americans are a majority. If black lives matter, why not concentrate on parents staying together and raising children, prioritizing education and trying their best to keep kids at school and off streets. But that's a much harder and longer road with plenty of setbacks and no guaranteed short term success. It's much easier to just point fingers at the system, decry white privilege and demand change from others than look at yourself in a mirror and wonder what you can do to improve situation in your own family, your own community etc. You can't expect the world around you to change and not doing your bit. And I don't mean making selfies with friends at protests while giving a finger to the cops.
It was an abomination of a post, there was nothing meaningful about it.See this is why I don't get some people in the CE forum. Disagree with him fine but to just go in and suggest he's a racist is quite crass. Just shutting down any meaningful discussion because people dare suggest something different.
Good point.Why would he acknowledge something he knows he's wrong about? It's not about a discussion. It's about sounding intelligent while never admitting you're wrong. That's the game him and others like him play.
Narrative.I don't understand how the American people see this as normal nor do I understand why they won't surrender the second amendment. As you say for a developed country this is unbelievable.
Actually what you posted about Russia and Russians is to a large degree a very fair assessment. It may sound a bit harsh, but it's pretty much on the money.
He's Russian, I expect nothing less.Wow. That just got worse and worse as it went down, didn’t it?
Kudos.
Narrative.
You grow up listening to the society say "Would you rather kill that murdering intruder who is going to enter your house with a sack of guns one day or would you die because you have no guns?"
He's Russian, I expect nothing less.
And it does help that gun lobby make so much money that own the politician as well as the media and can create very weird laws unheard of anywhere else.It seems as though society is underpinned by fear and the need to escalate rather than de-escalate. I guess this is reflected by the way they police.
Russian isn't a race you fecking dope. Let them take notice of that.Wow. That's racist. I'm appalled at such behaviour. The mods should take notice.
Russian isn't a race you fecking dope. Let them take notice of that.
Fixed that for you.Good. That means, I'm being consistently racist.
So it's OK to insult someone based on their nationality?
That will not be what he takes from itWere you insulted when he said he wasn't surprised by your views due to your nationality?
It's a generalisation obviously but to be insulted, there would have to something negative about your views surely?
Why would he need to agree with the negative framing to notice the obvious negative framingWere you insulted when he said he wasn't surprised by your views due to your nationality?

“stereotypes are rooted in real life experiences”So it's OK to insult someone based on their nationality?
But I am an African, with my own culture and memories of my own country. For their faults, I do not fear death at the hands of the British police if I am stopped or pulled over. African-Americans live in a country that has stolen their culture, their history and completely erased it. They live in a country that discriminates against them from the moment they're born and that is the only country, the only culture they know. I can't even begin to understand what that's like. I can't begin to understand the pain of knowing my ancestors were enslaved and parts of the country still glorify that history, with statues, flags and street names.
There's lots of things that need to change for African-American lives to get better, including some things from African-Americans themselves of course.

That's not a fair comment to make, unless you are trying to prove a point that generalisations are a bad thing.He's Russian, I expect nothing less.
Full video probably not up yet but a small sample here.

Fair enoughYeah I think I was trying to be too clever there. My bad.
No I'm not, try being gay or black in Russia, not fun . And I tend to not listen to people from that part of the world on race or gay rights. A gangster state if ever there was one.That's not a fair comment to make, unless you are trying to prove a point that generalisations are a bad thing.
Or their race?So it's OK to insult someone based on their nationality?
Surely all Russians can't be responsible for the actions of their state.No I'm not, try being gay or black in Russia, not fun . And I tend to not listen to people from that part of the world on race or gay rights. A gangster state if ever there was one.
What do you refer to by "that part of the world"?No I'm not, try being gay or black in Russia, not fun . And I tend to not listen to people from that part of the world on race or gay rights. A gangster state if ever there was one.
Cringe. Sounds like he said "sucked up" to me btw. But that was hilariously childish. What preceded that melt down?
Some of the preamble is in sections here:
The MEN vid seems to be before the express one as it isn't as heated.

The Express is reporting Guliani said 'f*cked up' and that's what Piers seemed to think but it sounds like he caught himself actually said 'sucked up'
