Alaska also has a discussion similar to this on their APC page.

Does this mean the Alaska merger rumors are true?

Some people just need to take the early out and content themselves to screaming at Fox News for the remainder of their days. I’m sure history will vindicate your crusade...

Sigh. Everyone's a comic these days. If you've ever heard Doug in person, it's hard not to be struck by how imposing a presence he makes. A large man with a booming voice. Gifted and persuasive speaker who wields both his reputation and easy charm like Excalibur. But just because your last name is Parker, doesn't mean you can climb walls on finger tips. Favoritism of this kind cuts both ways. Where does it end? Che joins the American Way? Embrace Antifa, get upgrades cheapa? Playing with fire. https://youtu.be/BPV6kpNnr3c

Moderator, can you create a meta-thread like the covid one for this soon-to-be dumpster fire (see Alaska forum) and put it in "hangar talk" so they can keep yelling at each other and type angrily on their keyboards ?

HUGE THANKS IN ADVANCE !

Got it, unarmed people being killed by an authority group is totally cool, but people speaking out about it is just too much.

Sorry snowflake, are you triggered? Need your safe space?

Yes white people get murdered. Yes black people get murdered. One of those happens to be disproportionately committed by persons of any color standing behind a badge. I’ll let you guess which one it is.

Black Lives Matter.

Regardless of what you think.

Look at the data behind the rhetoric. Perhaps read some of what data driven authors such as Larry Elder, Thomas Sowell, and others have to say. One of the biggest factors contributing to poverty, criminal activity, and involvement with the law is broken homes, and the data will show that the black community by far leads that demographic. Both liberal and conservative think tanks agree on this. President Obama said the same thing in a speech. The data will show that one group of people commit a disproportionate amount of crime. It will show that that same group is also more likely to resist arrest when confronted with law enforcement. It will also show that more white people are shot by the police than black. Another study showed that police are far more reluctant to use force against a black criminal than a white one because they are afraid of potential backlash. The narrative that police are out hunting black people is completely false. Just like in any other line of work, there are bad apples, but to paint all police with a broad brush is wrong. Larry Elder summed it up pretty well. He said that for people to avoid violent confrontations with the law, all they need to do is stay in school, don’t engage in criminal activity, and if confronted by an authority figure, cooperate. If you choose to drop out of school, get involved in crime, and physically attack the police when confronted, your lifespan will most likely be short, regardless of race.
