      REPLY: 1:267/150 c8200c6c       MSGID: 1:261/1466.0 5f1a854c        -=> On 07-23-20 21:57, Gregory Deyss <=-        -=> spoke to Dale Shipp about Re: Floyd <=-                     Most of your remarks here are off the mark and were pivots trying to       distract from the point. Thus they deserve no response.               DS> How many white parents have felt the need to have "the talk" with their        DS> children about how to act if stopped by the police? How many black        DS> parents have *NOT* felt that need.               GD> What do you think that conversation is Dale among white families to        GD> their young adults?         GD> Be Respectful perhaps...?        GD> Maybe if the Black Families had the same conversation with their young        GD> adults maybe that would break the cycle, what do you think?              White parents do not see the need to tell their white children "keep       your hands on the steering wheel so that you do not get shot". White       parents do not see the need to tell their white children "don't make any       sudden movements or you might get shot". White parents do not see the       need to tell their white children "don't question why you were stopped       or you might get shot". and so forth, the list goes on.                GD> Blacks have been equal in schools since the civil        GD> rights act has been passed.               DS> That is simply not true. The budgets of predominately black schools        DS> have been less than those of predominately white schools. Hence, not        DS> equal.               GD> Your facts are lefty fictions, you ever hear of opportunity zones, why        GD> don't you read up on what the President is doing for Urban kids in        GD> schools. You might even learn something.                Since his Secretary of Education has no knowledge nor connection in her       life with public schools, I would doubt that she has made any attempt to       equalize the disparity. Please show me how that is not true.               GD> No one is chasing them out of town with guns aimed - that would        GD> illegal and punishable by law.               DS> Tell that to Treyvon Martin or Ahmaud Arbrey. Oh -- you can't do that        DS> because they were chased with guns aimed and were killed.               GD> We all know the Treyvon Martin Story, and that is no one to put on a        GD> pedestal. He was a thug, and also a kid who Obama once said could of        GD> been my son.               Your point is what? Any want-a-be cop / vigilant has the right to gun       down anyone he believes to be a thug who does not belong in his       neighborhood? Surely you jest.               DS> Some of which are not from a distant past. The fact that they ever        DS> happened has contributed to the national predjudice.               GD> This is 2020 not 1950.               None of those memories were as far back as 1950. Some were from much       more recent times.               GD> I do not think you have the same understanding with the facts in the        GD> Michael Brown case or what the events that led to Mr. Browns death.         GD> You apparently were        GD> sleeping when when it once announced the Michael Brown reached into        GD> the Police car and tried to take the gun from the Police Officer and              A report that is / was in dispute. The other version is that the       officer grabbed Brown by the neck and then shot at him. After which       Brown tried to run away.               GD> declaration made from the President with Law and Order and the               DS> Right -- send in the storm troopers to grab people off the street and        DS> wisk them away in unmarked vehicles, all with no probable cause or        DS> justification. That is Trump's idea of law and order.               GD> Probable Cause ? Are you serious these cities look like a warzone and        GD> getting worse by the hour. Storm Troopers - Yet another Nazi        GD> Reference? You're as bad as Pelosi that's what she said I do believe.               I used the appropriate expression. Have you not watched any of the       videos showing them rushing up to a man standing quietly and grabbing       him and shoveing him into an unmarked car? Or the video showing them       using baton sticks to attack a man standing with his hands up? What       else would you call such tactics. They are deliberately inflaming the       protestors.               GD> These are Democratic Mayors & Governors who have lost control of their        GD> cities. Do you deny that? - or do like chaos?               It is their city, and it is their responsibility. They were working       with the protestors. One of them was tear gassed in another attack on       peaceful protestors. Those milita do not belong there poring gasoline       on the embers.               Dale Shipp        fido_261_1466 (at) verizon (dot) net        (1:261/1466)                     ...
