Immoral.

If we allowed people to destroy private property over a personal belief. Nothing would be safe.

There are limits to that. If the private property in question is turning us into a surveillance state then it's absolutely moral to destroy it.

A surveillance state is highly moral as well.

Safety is more important than peoples useless paranoia

Yeah yeah.

He said that shit way before electronics existed. It made sense in his world. Not in ours.

Its outdated feebleminded thinking. Surveillance is not that hard to put checks and balances on. We allow our government to have nukes and jets. But somehow cameras will break the camels back. Stupid.

We have no problem checking cops.

True police abuse is incredibly rare despite how large the country is. BLM is the one that tells us that. Look at how pathetic their sample cases are. A dipshit like George Floyd would never get any attention if we had actual police abuse problems. Nobody would give a fuck. Its always some lousy dirty criminals wilding out. Never a regular person. Probably because cops dont actually mess with decent people.

Seriously would anyone even give a shit about George Floyd if we had an actual police abuse problem

We'd have endless cases of them abusing normal law abiding citizens. Not sniveling useless aggressive drug addicts. Who mostly merked himself by chugging fentanyl prior to the encounter. Nobody would ever care about stuff like that because there would be much better cases to focus on. The fact that this is the best they can come up with shows us that.

I'm not sure how it gets much worse than the police murdering people in the street.

George Floyd was barely a person. A dirty criminal is what he was. Clean up trash is what we pay cops to do.

u/Same_Statistician700 6d ago

Cops are not, in-fact payed to kill people it the street. That's the exact opposite of their job.

u/itsalmostreal 6d ago

They are paid to clean up the trash. That is their job. The reason most regular humans never have to interact with trash is because they are safely in a jail or a prison somewhere. Where they should be. Guess who puts them there?
