I get what he's trying to say but naw lol pure execution. The second half is a way better answer.
But he said the suspect has rightsThat was a dumb comment that he made. He literally said that it's the child's fault if they get arrested, & that suspects doesn't have rights.
This. It sounds like it would be the best thing for the country.
Ah... make your child think its their fault for getting shot. What sage advice.
Why would he be cancelled over pointing out that cops are fucking liable to actually do that shit if you don't bend over backwards as a black man?
He's not telling you to respect cops, he's saying that they're thugs.
almost like the two halves of the statement go togetherI get what he's trying to say but naw lol pure execution. The second half is a way better answer.
If only it were that simple.
Seriously, where has he been for the last 100 years.
"But I would also be very mindful of the fact that as a nation we have got to hold police officers accountable for the actions that they commit. So to answer your question I would be very cautious, defend and know my rights, and make sure if possible that police officer's camera is on."
May want to throw the rest of the quote in the OP.
Oh look, a sound bite that Era is going to take out of context and run with to suit their agenda against Bernie.
Americans truly deserve the America they have today.
Thank you for the rest of the OP."But I would also be very mindful of the fact that as a nation we have got to hold police officers accountable for the actions that they commit.

I mean if your black yea.That was a dumb comment that he made. He literally said that it's the child's fault if they get arrested, & that suspects doesn't have rights.
A'fuckin'men!Oh look, a sound bite that Era is going to take out of context and run with to suit their agenda against Bernie.

Do we know yet why Bernie Sanders didn't attend Elijah Cummings' funeral? We know from the ERA thread that Obama, Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Warren (another senator from New England who is in the primary), AOC, etc. were in attendance along with many others... plus even Mitch McConnell, and I doubt Elijah and Mitch saw eye to eye on many issues...
Yes, that's exactly what he was saying.Pretty sure Bernie is saying follow their commands so you don't get murdered by a cop. He follows up with how police in America need to be held accountable. Not the way I would have worded it, but his thoughts were in the right place
nothing. Cops can be full-on unpredictable wild cards. Do your best not to give one the reason or opportunity to think it's a good day to murder you.
Pretty muchI mean, that's what black families tell their black children.
"Yes sir/ma'am."
"No sir/ma'am."
"Thank you for the ticket, sir/ma'am, and I'm sorry."
Hands always in full view. Don't get angry. Don't talk back.
Because we don't want our kids to get shot in the back of the fucking head with crack sprinkled on their shirts for dramatic effect.
I quoted a tweet that posted the video, as is standard practice... I didn't transcribe part of it and then stop.
Oh look a sock puppet.Resetera political thread titles are always biased and filled with mischaracterizations so this not being accurate doesn't surprise me.
What advice would you give to your black son about dealing with the police?
Yea I mean if you don't want to hear it from an old white guy don't ask him the very specific question lolOne of those things that's mostly true but that you don't really want to hear from an old white guy.
Probably cleaning his klan robesDo we know yet why Bernie Sanders didn't attend Elijah Cummings' funeral? We know from the ERA thread that Obama, Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Warren (another senator from New England who is in the primary), AOC, etc. were in attendance along with many others... plus even Mitch McConnell, and I doubt Elijah and Mitch saw eye to eye on many issues...
Your very recent post history with regards to the person in the video makes your purpose here obvious, don't try to play dumb.I quoted a tweet that posted the video. And the full video is right there, for anyone to click on.
That's how I heard it. Sounds more like advising treating cops as if they're deadly wild animals rather than victim blaming or another pro-cop statement.Title out of context? In the video it seems like he's trying to say that you need to be cautious around the police so you dont get shot in the back of the head. Not so much that you need to bow to the police.
I mean respect in context is dont start screaming and cussing an officer out. Even if you dont respect the title, respect the fact that you have a person with a loaded gun who has the authority to shoot you in the back of the head, and that that needs to change. My take at least.

CHILL lol
It can be interpreted by some as blaming the victims.
And this is precisely why he has 0% of winning the primary, let alone the general election.
He needs to drop out and endorse Warren.
