Burn.... Burn Documentary

Politics
1

There is a documentary on Showtime which has a title similar to Burn … Burn. I can’t post the exact title.

If you want to better understand BLM, the NFL kneeling, etc. I recommend it. It will also help you understand police abuse, the federal law enforcement abuse, drug trade, etc. You put this documentary together with other sources such as Negroes and the Gun: The Black Tradition of Arms and you start to understand things differently.

You think one person can’t destroy the country? You think the 3rd Amendment is irrelevant? Look into Darryl Gates.

Get woke. Stay woke.

Darryl Gates may easily be the single worst element in the history of US law enforcement.

3

Darryl Gates the former police chief of LA? What was the deal with him?

4

Yes. That Darryl Gates.

5

You could have posted the title…the filter bypass would have dealt with it.

6

The documentary is about the racial issues in LA, and focuses on the Rodney King riots and the decades of tension and incidents that led to them.

I haven’t watched it yet but it’s on my list.

7

Or… I could have posted the way I want to.

It doesn’t focus on the King riots. It’s about the relationship between the black community and law enforcement in California in general and LA specifically.

It also addresses the Asian community’s involvement.

10

What was controversial about him?

11

Militarization of the police.

12

Oh dude. You’re going to have to research him yourself. There is far, far too much for a post.

Here’s a taste. When the King riots broke out, Gates was at a fundraiser to fight a proposition that would have reined in his power. He told his cops to stand down 4 blocks away and let them riot.

You want to know why a police department in a city of < 10,000 has a SWAT team? Gates.

Try Rise of the Warrior Cops

Or I could have said that. Thanks Conan.

14

Also a good part on “The Conversation”, how to submit to police.

15

Bill Parker.

Cool I’ll add it to my viewing list, I picked up Showtime for Sacha Baron Cohen’s doc in which he makes some dumb people look even stupider.

17

Gates’ daddy. Indeed.

18

Yes, you could have.

But you said “I CAN’T post the exact title”.

When actually you CAN.

At any rate, thanks for the clarification of the subject matter…I was going off the synopsis on the Showtime app.

19

They made the title acceptable for the public by not spelling out the word. It would have been a filter by pass here.

So I couldn’t and posted it the way I wanted to. Are you a moderator now?

My bad- you could have replaced the asterisk with the letter.

You pick the funniest things to get worked up in a lather over.
