This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
we have a man who led the CHP on a high speed chase, with a blood alcohol level twice over the legal limit, because a DUI would violate his parole for a prior robbery conviction and then when they finally stopped him and the LAPD showed up he resisted arrest

the dude then rushes towards an officer, gets beat down and the cops keep hitting him with their paddywhackers every time he tries to get up

being outraged over genuine racism i can understand, but why the fuck did people riot over this dumb cunt getting his ass beat after what he did

Um, I don't know, how about police brutality? It doesn't matter in the slightest what started the incident, what matters is that the police beat him senselessly, even when he wasn't moving at all.

i'm not necessarily saying i agree with the officers' actions

i'm questioning whether it was worth rioting over a dangerous criminal getting his ass beat for being a dangerous criminal

It wasn't rioting over just Rodney King, that was just the straw that broke the camel's back.

To answer that, you have to answer whether it would've happened to that extent if he was white. And no, it wouldn't have.

Because resisting arrest these days is the cool thing to do and black people think cops are out to get them even though black people commit the most crimes out of any race in Murica.

When a cop tells you to do something, you do it. You don't ignore them or try to fight back or anything because you're gonna get your ass beat obviously. Its their job to enforce the law and nobody is above it.

my answer would be i wouldnt really care either way

like i said in the OP, racism? sure, be outraged

but a criminal getting a beat down, black or white? i don't give a shit. and i can see how the king case is indicative of a wider issue, but im really just looking at the case in isolation here

rights are granted by the government in exchange for paying taxes and following the law. Breach these terms and you begin to lose the protection of granted rights.
Unspook yourself already, Class.

i think what class means is that criminals are still human beings

like, take away a criminal's rights, but don't take his dignity or whatever

you don't need to brutalize, torture, or humiliate criminals--lock them up, punish them, rehabilitate them, but there's no use in cruelty

No, human rights are literally inherent in the concept of pain-capable intelligent life. No different to how animal rights are inherent in pain-capable unintelligent life. Neither can be stripped, no matter what the human or animal does.

Animal rights are an even bigger spook because they can't even recognize or comprehend the rights bequeathed upon them.
