Notice NBPA explores next step toward potentially boycotting games

That could be said about a great many things then though. Anyone desiring a management position is someone who desires power over others no?

 

I have that affect on people.

 

The movement yes. Defunding them though, no that stuff probably ends up costing more. Abolishing them no not at all. Ive never argued against police reform though.

 

Because "protestors" aren't an organization, like the police. They have no institutional power to "protect" others, they have no organization that hires and fires, there's no "protestor leadership" that gives them responsibility over other people to prevent them from doing what they're doing. Protestors are a bunch of people, many of them independent from each other. Sure, there are some organizations like BLM protesting, but if you run out there and start protesting, they have nothing to do with you and no authority to tell you to stop or make you stop. The police are an organization with responsibility and authority over other police and can suspend/fire and they can decide who to hire in the first place.

I'm not sure how this is even a comparison.

 

Does that mean that all bullies either end up a criminal or a cop?

 

Physical power (which is what I said in my post)? Nope. While I'm sure plenty of managers are bullies, "manager" isn't a job you can just go out and get. At least nominally, you get that position by showing experience and competence at other positions first. It's not an easy way for people with bully tendencies to get power (especially physical power) over others.

 

Of course not, it's not literal. It's simply a way to express that both sides of that coin are refuges for that sort of person.

 

Lol, I was just messing with you, definitely needed to make that green.

 

to me its a matter or morality and a badge isnt gonna change that.
If we want equality and justice it must happen in all facets in all arenas. If not it isnt equal.

ww must point out and attempt to negate all bad actions. Cops, citizens, all people.
No one gets pass because of their job, position, badge or civil stance.

its real difficult to take a sect seriously when they cry foul on the other party but refuse to call it the same within thier own party.

 

Doctors kill a lot more people from bad doctoring every year than police, not disagreeing with you, but no one seems to care about that.

 

I would also like to point out that forum moderators attract shitty people too

 

Protestors aren't a "party," though. It's like asking "if you want police to take responsibility for the bad cops, are you going to take responsibility the bad Americans?" I don't have the authority to do that. If a random person in my city or state or nation does a stupid or violent thing, that doesn't mean I enabled it. I didn't "hire" him to be an American. I don't get to set the rules he/she has to abide by. I don't get to suspend his citizenship or deport him for being a "bad American."

Police forces get to decide who becomes a cop. They get to set the rules for their police force. They get to train them. They have the authority to suspend/fire them. They have the ability to use the power of their union to fight prosecution of members of their union. Organizations, especially professional organizations, have responsibility and authority that random groups of non-organized people do not have.

Depends on the situation on whether its criminal or malpractice.
Does it deserve protests, I dont know individuals can decide that for themselves. Its exponentially larger than police.

Its not quite the same obviously their jobs are completely different. I am simply pointing out that you put them in a similar group, one causes significantly more deaths but has very little public outcry compared to the other.

Again though, Im for police reform.

 

Yeah, but we had the power to fire you. I mean, fire those failed, shitty mods.
