There's no mention of murders or violence in that post. Very strange of you to try and act like there is, when there isn't.

However I see lots of comments about people justifying the police murdering people as if it's okay. You sure are bad at arguing your point for how much you choose to argue with everyone.

it seems you have, overall, been praising of the effects of the "protests" and dismissive of the violence and murders that have accompanied them. Praise for the riots that does not condemn accompanying violence:

There's probably more people that have woken up to the reality of the police misconduct situation in the last few weeks than in the last decade

Most comments I've seen have been refusing to condemn police who followed appropriate procedure in a dangerous situation even if it did lead to a tragic death. Is that what you're referring to with "cheering police murders"?

We both already want police reform but c'mon, that statement of yours was an intentional smear against an acceptable and moral position.

"protests" and dismissive of the violence and murders that have accompanied them.

I've been praising the protests. I have NOT been praising the riots, which are different from the protests. I do not condone violence. I've been pretty clear about this.

I am getting very tired of you misrepresenting my opinion to try and make me look bad. Find a better hobby.

Here you yourself are justifying a death! So how about you actually follow your own recommendations?

No, you did minimize murder and redirect the conversation to how we need to sympathize with the murderers. /s/politics/comments/4qyg/the_riots_have_killed_more_people_than_chauvin/hme2

And in that same discussion you left without addressing connections I brought up between the protests and the riots.

I don't feel like you're being honest here, about your own position, about the connection between the protests and the riots and violence and murder, about other people's responses to the murder. It's silly to fight each other, like I said we both want to improve policing, but it's also silly for me to just assume I'm wrong and I should be quiet when I see something troubling just because someone says mean things to me about it when I bring it up. I think you are more guilty yourself of what you accuse others of above in "cheering on murder" and, as I said, I don't appreciate the smear. And I don't appreciate your evasiveness on these topics.

I put them in statistical proportion to each other.

You are really just fishing for stuff at this point. Have a good one.
