Just think... if George Floyd had simply complied, he'd be alive today and we would never have known who he is. And you'd instead be posting about Taco Bell introducing the Dark Choco Taco in 2020.
I can't believe you made this comment. I guess human life doesn't mean anything to you. Or may be, that particular life is disposable to you. I hope that none of your loved ones or any one close to you dies a horrible death like that. Be careful about what you say. It may come knocking on your door.
Text book straw man fallacy here. ^^^
"Just think... if George Floyd had simply complied, he'd be alive today and we would never have known who he is."
Tell me, what is false about this statement? I'm asking about my statement, not your imaginary rant.

He was no saint:
Between 1997 and 2005, Floyd was arrested several times on drug and theft charges and spent months in jail.
In 2007, Floyd was charged with aggravated robbery in which he allegedly placed a gun on a woman’s abdomen and demanded drugs and money. In 2009, he pleaded guilty and received a five-year prison sentence. He got out on parole in 2013.
He also died due to fentanyl. And it's true, don't commit crimes and things like this won't happen.
If ifs and buts were candy and nuts we'd all have a merry christmas. the bad actions of bad cops will always be prioritized and blasted publicly over the good ones.
This is why we're known as idiotic, dumb and dishonest all over the world. The autopsy did not show he died from phentynl, yet here you are publicly displaying the same ignorance.
This is really sad. However, non-prescribed Fentanyl is not legal anywhere in the US.
Do yerself a favor and go outside and slap yer melon on tree. Dang almighty son. Yer part of **** britches flock obviously. Good luck.
My god, you are an idot. Good luck.Do yerself a favor and go outside and slap yer melon on tree. Dang almighty son. Yer part of **** britches flock obviously. Good luck.

yes, i know. But i also know the bad actions of bad cops will always be prioritized and blasted publicly over the good ones.
Gotcha, the title of the video says something about investigating a city where every drug is legal. You have to go to Paraguay for that.
Might wanna relocate to San Francisco,Minneapolis or Portland. Somewhere where you'd fit in.
Someday I might, but I have a good social group in rural Oklahoma, and I still love the Oklahoma I grew up in (tractors, hay balers, cattle chutes, beer, motorcycles, Waylon and Willie).Might wanna relocate to San Francisco,Minneapolis or Portland. Somewhere where you'd fit in.

I think that until the police dept gets rid of the "blue wall" and the bad apples, their intentions will always be questioned and their work marginalized.
You seem more interested in the minutiae of an insignificant point than the content of what I find to be a rather interesting video.
I think it is very misleading to claim that our drug problem in the US is a result of decriminilization (which the video implies). Fentanyl is illegal without a prescription. I agree that the video is interesting, but to make any headway in combatting what is a growing problem, misinformation needs to be eradicated. My wife is a doctor at an addiction clinic, so I live with this **** day in and day out. It is a sad and terrible thing. The war on drugs is not working...

Allowing the Sacklers to avoid any significant consequences for the opioid crisis they created is not helping.
War on drugs? In case you haven't noticed there ain't one. Sleepy doesn't care. War on drugs? His own son is fvcked up on crack. Come back with something more comprehensible. Drugs entering the US are encouraged by yer government. You got lost somewhere. Stumblin sleepy's gittin rich with his open border policy.
I dont care what you find misleading. The video is just interesting, and doesnt make any such claims. it does however show you what decriminilization looks like right now and gives me the impression that it's not a positive thing for people who arent strong enough to maintain a habit and still be productive members of society. It's also objectively an eye sore that nobody likes to see. f7cked up junkies living in tent cities is not what people want to see.
I didnt post the video to make headway in a growing problem. I dont really care, it's not my issue. I posted it because it's interesting as f7ck to see what these drugs are doing to people. Many folks never see this up close and may even think people dont willingly live this way because the drugs make them not care.
