I'm pretty sure this trashbag's reaction was identical when Kaepernick knelt on the field, but once der verdeckt honkentrupers were stirring the shit with their umbrellas and bricks he really, really, REALLY wanted to get out there and commit some gubbermint-sanctioned mass murder. It must be incredibly frustrating to have been denied this simple desire.

YES IT'S SARCASM.

he has done over the years to POCs who came into his orbit somehow—both citizens and other cops under him.

Many of there vicious racists are hiding in plain sight in police chief's clothes even, with big smiles on their faces.

This guy is a highly paid employee of government service. He probably lives a very reasonable lifestyle with all kinds of perks and luxuries which the vest majority of people cannot afford. The question is why would he post online, in public, and for all to see something which would get him fired from that job?

I work for a living now, I have employers, and whatever goes through my brain about one thing or another the first thing I think of it is this worth my job? And if the answer is remotely no, I zip my mouth. I need the job, I need the income, I need the life stability.

What do thesePeople think it’s going to happen to them, in this environment, in this society, and with this technology of communication and permanence?
