Anyone who thinks this is okay has not studied history in the 20th century.


Anyone fast enough to accept anything...


The truth is, conservatives would hide the fact you were living with agressive police police (police state attribute) anyway. And this whole post is hardly tech centered. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/series/counted-us-police...


The recent events have made me much more conservative, and I have zero desire to back unwarranted aggressiveness from police.

So what you said is not true.


Conservatives have no reason to cover for police given that police unions donate overwhelmingly to Democrats over Republicans.

Also, it was conservatives who overwhelmingly opposed the "100,000 new cops" Crime Bill of 1994.


Literally a biased, unbalanced website It's in the sites about me part, lol okay.


I missed that, the "about me" section is pretty neutral but the tagline in the footer says the Fix delivers your daily dose of right[italics theirs]-minded journalism.

Could someone here read the actual paper and its academic criticism rather than just falling into party lines on the issue? I'm sleepy or I'd do it.
