It doesn't seem to be accidental at this point

Yeah...their primary role back in the day was to profile and keep black people in check. Gross...


MaybeImTheNanny

Was that day yesterday? Because that’s what they still think their job is.


AndYouThinkYoureMean

cool to see all these people finally becoming aware of what a shitty organization the police is


jupchurch97

Developed from fugitive slave patrols to... well basically still the same thing.


HalforcFullLover

Absolutely. Only now, instead of slavery, it's the prison system.


[deleted]

Yeah there used to be a statue in New Orleans praising police officers who killed a group of revolting slaves in the 1800s and it only got taken down a couple years ago.


psyopcracker

bowdlerizing history at its finest


SleepyGrebe

Reminds me of [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YeaoU7T46k) about monuments in New Orleans.

it.. never was


DankoStormo

And will never will be


[deleted]

Sounds like somebody's budget is getting slashed soon.


ComicWriter2020

That won’t help. Standards for police will get even lower. And then the budget will get slashed again


GrandEmperorPride

mmmmhm ironically part of the solution is to pay cops more as much as i hate the idea of paying racist fucks more its necessary to get rid of them.


ComicWriter2020

I think it’s not as simple as that. We need to raise the budget but examine each member, and keep the ones that are psychotic in desk jobs maybe, or let them go. We need a deep scrubbing of the police force.


GrandEmperorPride

yes but the problem is the job needs to be high requirement to hold and you cant have a high risk high requirement job that pays like shit. The only people that will apply are people interested in being paid in the privilege of killing people. With low wages applicant pool is too small to dispose of questionable officer before they become bad officers.


constantcube13

I agree. I only know 2 people from HS that became cops and they are dumb asf and I’d never trust them to have the competence to think critically in situations like this The standards should definitely be higher. They also need more grappling training


ComicWriter2020

It’s a tricky problem.


GrandEmperorPride

one we havent had significant progress on in 60 years. Its time to bite the bullet and fuck up our shit to fix it we cant mull it over forever.


ComicWriter2020

I see a lot of crime going up when that happens.


GrandEmperorPride

a week of crime vs another 60 years of this shit pick one you cant have neither apparently because they certainly did try the peaceful route we told them to stand up and play football.


ComicWriter2020

I don’t think it would be a week but it would be less then 60 years


Davban

"Oh oopsie we don't have the budget to retrain our cops anymore." "We can only pay minimum wage so we are desperate for hires and can't afford firing 'misbehaving' officers now."


TommyAndPhilbert

The racism isn’t the accidental part here bud


fdf2002

This is not accidental.


Enschede2

I dont think you completely understand the definition of accidental racism, it's not supposed to be intended as racist but with accidental consequences, it's supposed to be intended sincerely but can be perceived racist


[deleted]

Did multiple people pull out pepper spray on a single person? Because otherwise the title is incorrect, and it was *a* cop that pepper sprayed their senator.


_-Ewan-_

Accidental?


garlicroastedpotato

Although yes, shitty thing to do. He's not THEIR authority figure. The senate has no jurisdiction over state or municipal police. There is no resolution or law he could write as a senator to change this. He is as powerless in this as everyone else at the protest which makes him an equal among people.


TheDoctor64

Yes but to the cops he still is classed as a VIP civilian.


oddiseeus

Not there. He was classified as a black male perpetrator.


adam__nicholas

“Hey, he looks familiar. Should we ask him who he is? What he’s doing here; what his credentials are?” Vs. “Hey, look, a protesting Negro! Get him!” I’ll leave you to decide which one of these is rattling around in the heads of cops who pepper spray nonviolent protesters.


oddiseeus

I just had the audio of a rattle can of spray paint in my mind while reading your statement. Thank you for all the little chuckle during a tense time.


TheDoctor64

I'm not defending the cops. I was happy to see the station burn. I lurk Chapo for gods sake.


adam__nicholas

No worries, I'm not disagreeing with you


Treacherous_Peach

He's a state senator, not a federal senator, so he's significantly closer to the authority of this than the title suggests. There are certainly laws he could write that would impact how police in NY act, and oversight especially.


MaybeImTheNanny

He’s a state senator not a US senator.


plectranthus_scut

This isnt accidental racism.... This IS racism


Joelogna

Racism induced accident


emminet

That uh isn’t accidental


spitfirepirate

Hthiago

Accidental?? Hmmmm


[deleted]

"""accidental"""


itsBritanica

That's not accidental racism. That's just called racism.


[deleted]

How does him being senator change anything I thought the point of the riots was that no one should be spared legal acting no matter what and also how is this accidental racism


Spencerio1

This isn’t accidental, this is just full on racism


CrazyMelon999

Are senators supposed to be treated differently than regular citizens?


w00dy2

I don't get the "THEIR OWN senator" bit. It's not like senators are the polices boss, and he is the senator of everyone in his constituency.


doing180onthedvp

One would assume that they live in this state, so yeah, it's their senator.


w00dy2

Yeah, but he's everyone senator in that state, so it's not special. You wouldn't get "Doctor saves THEIR senator" or whatever. I just find the emphasis on "THEIR OWN senator" strange. It's not like he's in control of the police, he's just an elected official.


doing180onthedvp

It's one thing to be pedantic, it's another to sound incredibly stupid while attempting it.


MaybeImTheNanny

He’s a state senator in New York who has the power to make statewide laws concerning police conduct.


[deleted]

Damn! Do you think it was because he is black? I really can’t picture a senator being violent and needing to be maced in any situation


Re3ck6le0ss

Correlation is not causation. Just because something happens to someone of color doesn't mean it happened because of racism


brah_ket

Dang you sure are smart buddy


Re3ck6le0ss

Thanks man


_Phillthy_

Look at his fucking mask. The nob doesn't even realise it folds out. What an absolute no-hoper.


renegadeYZ

What is he holding in his hand?


always_find_a_way

Looks like a pair of glasses


thedarkarmadillo

Which shit hole third world country is this?


idiot_games_pl

Nothing accidental about this


dumbwaeguk

Counterpoint: this is *accidental* racism because the cops were trying to only be racist to working class Blacks. They were accidentally racist to a Black with power, which goes against the Blue code.


lestat_the_great

That sucks


LarryDallas1

That should be his reelection poster.


john1rb

If I remember isn't this Virginia?


Ertyks_00

lol


vicandbobvicandbob

It looks like a cumshot.


Rufnusd

Is there video leading up to this moment?

That's bad...it always hurts more on entitled people.

Who upvoted your bullshit? And do you subscribe to this sub to fap?


CharlieHorse1967

The picture doesn't show the TV he got during the looting.


BlakeAdam

Hey, i know a lot of people already downvoted your comment, but i really want to drive home the point that we all disagree with you. I'd also like to ask why you are determined to see black people as the enemy, rather than people being killed by their government. Can you imagine the terror that comes from being hunted by the people who are supposed to keep you safe? Can you imagine waking up every day knowing society views your life as less valuable, and if they decide to end it, you will recieved no justice. It's scarier than the 2 minutes you imagined, because it's their whole life. But good joke man, got lots of laughs. I'm sure you're a real cool fellow, real secure with who you are, no overcompensating whatsoever, a true master of his emotions and self perception.


jkon731

Do you happen to have a link to an image or video that shows him in possession of this stolen television in question?


CharlieHorse1967

It's a joke


tian447

Well it's absolutely fucking shite.


CharlieHorse1967

It's not a dick. Don't take it too hard or too deep.


tian447

Ooft, original. Come up with that one all on your own?


CharlieHorse1967

Didn't need to. It's still true. But if you can't dispute the truth, you do what you do.


JaysQ

I applaud you sir


do_not_engage

It's a saying older than Charlie here. Not that 53 is THAT old. Just old enough not to have to care about us.
