Interesting there is that the one on the left seemed happy to just handcuff him when he had his hands on top of the head and only went along with the violent takedown plan after his partner initiated it. A good example of "one bad apple poisoning the whole orchard" or whatever variant of that metaphor Twitter has arrived at.

But why in Edmonton, Alberta am I asked to show ownership of my vehicle when I'm not dressed like a thug or otherwise doing anything wrong.

I'm living proof that are we in fact unfairly hassled by the police, and then to further say that it's justified because of homicides seems like just spraying darts at a board.

Where's that stat that black men steal vehicles in Edmonton at the highest rate? (praying this stat doesn't actually exist )
Are you playfully suggesting, on a hockey forum, that my name is racial some how? This is the 2nd time you've mentioned it. The #### is your problem?

And to somehow make it so much worse, it was the wrong guy. Don't worry though, llwhiteoutll will come in to tell us how it's fine because he was arrested for resisting arrest.

Nope. That's a bit of a reach.

Reading my post again, I'm not even grammatically sure how you made that connection.

I think the word you're looking for is syntax.

You've twice now mentioned my username in a way that playfully highlights the word white, like it's a racial declaration. Knock it off.

When did I become the resident thin blue line guy? Have I defended any cops here? Ever? #### off.

I like how this is the take away from what I said, and not the blanket application of statistics to all black people.

In any event, I will refer to your posts only by number from now on.

This is so incredibly stupid that I'm ashamed to be from the same place you are right now.

He neglected to capitalize the O on 'Out'. Oh heavens. Let's set you up a GoFundMe for your suffering, f--k.

Sorry, it's llwhiteoutll who justified excessive force against innocent civilians because they "resisted arrest" after the fact.

I guess this is why it's so important to get your name right .

(Anyways, what was said about your name is the same meaning if someone says "he knows it better than the back of his hand")

I thought "better than his own name" was a common idiom. It's in the bible. By name I meant what his actually name is, not "White out 403" which he presumably does not call himself outside of this forum. To assume that's what I meant seems strange, given my early tirade against Candace Owens as if black people cannot also say stupid things. To say "better than his own name" in reference to an alias defeats the meaning of the idiom.

I wasn't harping on his capitalization.

If it was the 'better than his own name' part, that doesn't make you look any less stupid.

When common idioms escape common idiots.

Ah yes. Clearly that is the version of the idiom that I will use moving forward, lest I instigate a race war.

In any event, post #2933, any retort for the actual content in the post?

Where it becomes BS is the notion that this selective enforcement is justified because of a 20 year historical homicide rate in a different country, as if that somehow has any bearing on me carrying a coffee in Edmonton in broad daylight to a modern car that's fairly difficult to steal.

Yes, I agree... it would apply to anybody. Just a blatantly poor tactic of law enforcement under any circumstance.
The real crime was having coffee from Tim Hortons.

...I'm not aware of any racial subtext to the word Acey but I'll maybe refrain from searching for one.

If there's some historical Black Panther Party overlord with the name Acey, let the record show that it wasn't intentional.

It was hot chocolate, I hate coffee. I have a few buddies that always rag on me for drinking hot chocolate and not coffee so I always say coffee so that doesn't become a key element of the story.

I can respect the hot chocolate a hell of a lot more than Timmies coffee!
