This is why I seldom respond to political threads anymore. The Shack collective isn't nearly as enlightened as it thinks it is, myself included.
I fucking love how the Shack collective is all about reason, science, and evidence when rebutting right wing talking points, but is okay with jumping to conclusions when the facts aren't all in and it suits their purposes.
Slow the roll. There is a lot more that's going to come out. We do not know as much as you seem to think we do and more information is going to come out. It may reinforce your conclusions, it may not, but at least we'll be making informed judgments. I am not changing the way I evaluate things just because I am not a big fan of authority figures.
Read my history, I'm one of the original Shacknews lefties. But after being burned a million times by things I thought I "knew" simply because it confirmed my biases, I try really hard to just wait until the facts are in. Patience is what we need. Especially if this shows how bad police can be, because it has a chance of getting to the "Blue Lives Matter" crowd. Rash decisions and judgments just harden everyone's opinions.
