  49. We need a deep study on all this: I saw a video of man striking an officer mulitple times in the head with a hammer. It wasn't reported in Media. It was celebrated on Twitter. When the man was arrested, protestors screamed the police were being brutal to him. They also edited a video of a man in tear gas being arrested to make it appear as if officers were holding him there as torture. Our study needs to analyze all angles of policing. How does the power of authority and non-lethal weapons affect an officer's mind? Do "non-lethal" weapons make officers feel more justified in their use?What kind of culture is fostered in police departments? What kind of affects does policing have on an officer brain long-term? How is violence, crime, danger and tragedy on the streets affect police officers every day? How does media coverage affect our view of events? How does media coverage shape protests and events? How does social media? How does the words of the President? What does proper protesting look like? What's the difference between antagonizing police and assault? Is antagonizing police go to far? What should police responses be (all the way from graffiti, to rocks, fireworks, shields, and armed protesters)? What tools should officers have to respond? How much authority should the president have to deploy federal forces without Congressional approval? Should it be limited only to military? Should the title Commander-in-Chief be stripped from the president all together? Is the Department of the Homeland necessary? Should the federal government defend federal property? Should states be able to bar federal forces? There needs to be a huge, in-depth study without political involvement. But it'll never happen.

  184.  @Reports.  Yes, that is partly true. But at the same time, the US gets its trade, and global influence by traveling overseas. That's basic economics and geography. The US has to cross 2 oceans. From 1492-1890, the US (and the American continents in general) were pretty much backwaters. They were ignored by most of the world. Most geopolitics and international affairs throughout history have revolved around Europe, the Middle East and eastern Asia. That's where most of the land masses meet and where most people live. I'm reading George Washington's biography and he talks about how expensive importing goods from Europe is in 1765. The largest reason for slavery in North and South America was to make it economically viable for trade. It even affects culture and international relations. Right up to the 1860's, American soldiers, politicians and aristocrats resented the contempt of their European counter-parts. All this is to say, to be economically powerful, and influential, the US has to travel overseas. It has to make defensive alliances. It has to protect it's trade and financial investments. Simply because it's surrounded by two massive oceans. Without it's military and economy, the US would quickly fall to irrelevance, even if it's culture remained somewhat influenceable. Any time the US government has to be responsible to attacks on the American people (9/11, Pearl Harbor, etc.), it has to travel overseas. European countries, Russia, Iran and China don't have to do the same because they aren't separated by huge oceans (for the most part). It sounds horrible, but the reality of geopolitics means that is the best strategy for the US.
