"Of course many Republicans are good, nice, decent people in their day to day lives. And that's why people struggle with the disconnect. They don't get how such nice, upstanding people, often family, can turn so evil when the subject goes to any minority or different culture. But they do." - Nick Spencer

Hardly comparable to the numerous cases of Police brutality by comparison.

That and someone dying because the work in a dangerous profession is hardly comparable to being killed because a trigger happy cop thought the color of your skin made you suspicious.

But no, it's the cops that are oppressed. Give me a break.

Then why bring it up at all, especially when people are talking about the injustice perpetrated by some corrupt and racist cops?

And do you call anything that disagrees with your point of view a "strawman "?

Your two statements are contradicting one another.

If the cops aren't being oppressed, how is it relevant? Because the situation is corrupt cops killing unarmed black men and women with little to no justification. The situation is bigotry, racial profiling, etc.

What happened to those officers was a tragedy, but it's no reason to stop calling out police brutality or corruption.

"Then why bring it up at all?"

Yeah, basically. It's "All lives matter"ing the discussion up.
