> [@mhendo](#): > > For the benefit of brain-dead fuck-knuckles like you and **gonzomax** , here are links to six separate threads from the past couple of years where i have been heavily critical of police actions. There are probably other people in this thread who could come up with a similar list. Yes, but the list I’d really like to see is that of posts in which **gonzomax** concedes that a cop acted appropriately. Surely that won’t be too hard, right? No? OK then, how about a single example? _One post_ from this board where you agree that a cop followed procedure and/or used reasonable force. Unless you come into every “cop incident” thread with your mind already made up, it should be easy enough to provide one example of your objectivity, right? Go back as far as you need to. We’ll be waiting. ---

I look forward to your applying this same retarded standard to everything else in the world. Starting with a thread where one Black man commits a crime, so clearly all Black men are criminals and should be incarcerated. Or, hell, just killed at birth. Or aborted before they’re even born!

I mean, c’mon, did you really believe it was possible for \*some girl \*to be \*this \*abrasive? ---
