The Law Australian Police brutality thread.

Government has already said they will bid for it again.

They won't get it, we don't want corporate criminals here in Melbourne.

No, only government and union criminals welcome.

Ghost Patrol for starters, but he wasn't alone.

Far as I recall there was general laughter at delusional cookers protesting against their fantasy conspiracy theories. Posturing and performing for YouTube subs, sending money to grifter DV perpetrators like Yemini. Nazis popping their heads up for some of the action.

Who here "applauded" the cops?

If you the conspiracy theorists in here are applauding the cops now, why were they not back then?

You should join the army, it's a great life.

They won’t have me, even if Centrelink say I’m no longer disabled…

Some wanted them to swap the rubber bullets for real ones…

Well trying to find those posts from 3 years ago in the dozen threads they’d be scattered across would be quite difficult.

Lol the Declaration of Independence,that post needs to be read in Russel Brand's voice.

Hmm...

The DoI is a pretty important historical and philosophical document, RnF. It's the foundational pre-constitution document of the American nation-state; it's a statement on the purpose of government and an outlining of the rights of people to democracy over tyranny.

It's a bit weird that I've got to make a defense of those things in a thread about police brutality - which is, quite legitimately, government overreach directly against the rights of citizens - but that's Bigfooty for you.

Bring back Guy Fawkes night so people can let off a bit of steam by burning shit and going mad with fireworks.

I mean, the OG point of Guy Fawkes night was to burn him in effigy for the temerity of trying to blow up parliament; to shame him for engaging in a political act of destruction.

In short, the state emphasising its control over the act of violence.

It's actually a bit of irony that you asserted Guy Fawkes as a supposed giggle in my direction. All it demonstrates really is that you failed to understand fully the post you addressed, even if you identified elements of the post for its resemblance to anti-tyrrany rhetoric of years past.

You're right that I failed to understand fully the post I addressed,no way I was reading all that.

Bemused at the end to see the DoI thrown in
the Australian police brutality thread.

Don't mind me too much, I write essays on some pretty niche shit sometimes.

your IP matches evolved2 on the Temu app

Nice misinformation Gauge

Ah, this old chestnut. Cookers vs Police is like watching a brawl between Collingwood and Carlton.
This has been explained to you many times.

Meanwhile, you cheer for police brutality when Extinction Rebellion blocks an intersection because your shitty Ford overheats.

Fair enough,but you have to remember there are people who don't write or read essays,like me.

I pare it down by only posting on BF on my phone.

I don't recall saying anything about police violence against lockdown protests. Perhaps you can provide me with something I said of those protests you think points to my supposed hypocrisy.

I also don't think I've said anything in my posts - in this thread or the one in Aust Pol - in support of these protests. You can - again - feel free to quote what I said in support of the protesters or their actions.

That wasn’t directed at you mate, there are plenty of others however. A 2 minute search has plenty of examples.

Here is one example from GP… how the narrative changes when the cause is something you sympathise with.

Play stupid games (ie. throw bottles and flares at police), win stupid prizes (rubber bullets)

This is the biggest problem we face in society. It’s not our economic or social system, it’s our incapacity to be objective, and apply moral and ethical standards regardless of our stance on a particular issue.

Here's the entire post for context. Notice how it's eddiesmith that's being the hypocrite as he now supports police violence.

So you support the police violence against this week’s protesters, good to know.

You said if you throw things like urine at the police you should expect violence. So you must support the police actions this week, good to see.

 

[Gralin]

I think if they've started shooting at you before you throw things back that argument goes away eddie

I'm not surprised that after 3 years you still can't understand a simple observation.

Expectation does not imply support.

You also said throwing urine was disgusting, so you must also condemn these protesters actions as well!
