With only 100 health for characters, and the general mobility of each characters, this move in it\’s current state is incredibly weak, here\’s an idea for a buff.

No cool down, and 3 variations close, moderate, and far. It\’d be an effective set up move used for extra damage in combos rather than a good attack on it\’s own

Replying to comment by: [Abandoned]yeah. in the end they're just ruining their own towns that

Well for starters the towns were already poor. The message is the police needs to reform if they want their town back which has been effective. The Mayor of Minneapolis is actually already considering it https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2020/06/02/mayor-minneapolis-police-racism-294985 It\’s also an effective way to get others to protest, and the peaceful protests have shown a light on the fascist behavior of our police departments and the United States President. I\’m sure we\’ve all heard of what happened at Lafayette park.

Tell me

Do you think it\’s justified for riot officers to fire teargas, rubber bullets, and to beat up protesters with batons

So the president can have a photo op?

If so, congratulations

You just might be a fascist sympathizer.

And if you really don\’t want riots to happen

You\’d look into the police, not the rioters

Replying to comment by: Ralph (Developer)let me begin by saying i understand your point, and nothing

The weed thing is connected to systemic racism because blacks and whites smoke at similar rates yet blacks are arrested more, why is this? Because black neighborhoods are over policed. You may say “Well that’s because they commit more crime” well to that I say they commit more crime because their situations are more dire. You talk about the difference between intercities and suburbs, well one of the major differences you’re ignoring is the wealth disparity. Intercities are poor, suburbs are not. Why are so many blacks poor? Well a multitude of reasons

For one, stuff like Jim Crow laws condemned a lot of African Americans to ghettos. Due to segregation black people had no choice but to go to shitty neighborhoods with poor education and job opportunities. This lead to generational poverty. People with well-off parents are more likely to be well off, and people with poor parents are more likely to be poor.

Black on Black crime is high because of poverty. Because black people are poor, and the neighborhoods they’re in are poor, there’s less job opportunities. Because of this, many of them have to resort to crime, drug dealing etc. But you have to protect the drugs to sell them. And to protect them you need a crew, and when two crews with the same goals clash, violence happens. This isn’t me saying gangs are good or the people in them are blameless, this is me recognizing that the situation racist institutions put them in led them into a scenario in which they have little to no other options. Poverty is the number one predictor of crime. Which is why poor whites commit more crime than rich blacks.

Over-policing doesn’t stop crime from happening, only catching it when it does. Once again crime stems from poverty, and more arrests aren’t going to change the neighborhood from being poor, infact, it makes it even more poor. The more fathers that are arrested the more fatherless children you have. Father-less children have higher rates of crime, and poor sex education guarantees more young black women are going to get pregnant, which creates a vicious cycle.

Rap music and “thug culture” being violent is irrelevant. The bad culture argument is bad because we look at TV shows and media that depicts violence everyday, and plenty of white and well off black people listen to rap music as well.

You go to school and don’t get good grades because of the poor education the school had due to underfunding

You listen to music because everyone listens to this music. It’s one of the most popular American music genres.

You’re father got arrested because he tried to sell weed to provide for you, as there was little employment opportunity due to the poor neighborhood, and the discrimination he might’ve faced for his name.

Your attitude is bad against the police, because your friend or someone you heard of was nothing but compliant and got shot anyway.

And the black on white crime is anecdotal because
1: Not every shooting whether it be black on white, black on black, or white on black is racially motivated.
2: A black individual doing something bad and racist and then getting immediately arrested, is not comparable to two white individuals doing something bad and likely racist, and having the police cover it up for months.
And 3: It isn’t relevant to what happened in Minneapolis, a place with an extensive history in black discrimination

The police are an extension of the state, which is an extension of the government, which is representative of America as a nation, therefore: Police being racist = America is racist.

Mainstream Medias problem as you state yourself is the profit motive. That’s a problem with capitalism. Still, even if they selectively reporting (which I wouldn’t say they’re selectively reporting this as the George Floyd situation started nationwide riots while the nursing home incident didn’t) that doesn’t mean we can’t acknowledge how this example is just another one of dozens of examples of the police being discriminatory in that area.

Sure the looting isn’t tied to George Floyd, and largely unjustified. but the riots also aren’t just about George Floyd. It’s about historical discrimination reaching it’s boiling point. The looting is happening because the neighborhood is poor, and the neighborhood is poor because of what I’ve stated above. And expensive TVs and clothing aren’t the only thing people are looting. They’ve taken food and refreshments from the Target to give out to protesters and rioters, and masks for those who don’t have one.

I also have to mention again, there are other non-violent protests around the nation that were escalated by the police. It’s funny how it’s “A couple bad seeds” when it comes to the police, but all the rioters are just thugs.

MLK actually had a paragraph on riots, he too believed they were unproductive, but he also acknowledged that they were happening for a very good reason.

And that reason

Is systemic racism.
