"We need to put a """temporary""" moratorium to infringe on your right to $thing until we figure out what the hell is going on"

No thanks

> I don't support any state's power to take away any human's rights.

Absolutely agreed. Which is why I'm firmly against Maine's proposal here

Strange that suddenly they don’t seem to like this concept so much anymore :)

“I support the right of $state to ban $thing”

Wait, not like that!

That’s not what a free society is.

That’s like saying “Mainers should be allowed to ban speech they don’t like, and private sex acts they find offensive”. Your view of what constitutes freedom is nonsensical.

Truly a difficult choice.

One side fights against government bullying and the other… put security cameras up.

Decisions, decisions

Boring comment. Let’s say things that add value to the conversation please.

There is an argument to be made yes, but not a particularly good one.

How can it possibly be defined as victimless

Not how Uber works now. Uber drivers love the flexibility and the ability to choose their hours. That’s the main draw of tue platform.

I agree, it’s shocking that the only productive sector of society has managed to remain unmolested for this long. I’m sure it won’t last, and we’ll soon regulate it into nonexistence and turn ourselves into Western Europe.

Why does it have to be due to the skin color of the car’s occupants? You know that correlation doesn’t necessarily imply causation right? Statistics are a tricky thing to get right

What has the UCLA written that agrees with this claim?

> They also falsely stated that the officers are “white supremacists,”

> Statistically that's a pretty sensible assumption.

Neither your comment nor the article answers my question. There’s no evidence here that the discrepancy is due to race.

Sorry, just looking for evidence that supports the claim that was made. So far there isn’t any.

Is there evidence to support the claim that, more often than not, a given cop is a white supremacist?

Context of the thread is important

No, I don't think that this supports the claim that it's a safe assumption that any given cop is a white supremacist.

> The American police force originally started as a formalized slave patrol to capture runaway slaves

I don't see how this supports the claim

Sorry, that's not how this works. Claims must be supported by evidence. I didn't ignore it, I reviewed it and explained how it doesn't support the claim.

I have no obligation to provide evidence to the contrary. Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
