The cop who shot the kid is also being paid at this very moment. Police Unions are utter poo poo.

It just doesn't sit well with me that the guy who killed a kid is better protected than the kid he loving killed. Not counting the fact that the kid will probably be character assassinated in the media. In my head it comes off as, "Oh gently caress one of our boys killed a kid? We better protect him from all the flak that will be coming his way pronto!" Agrajag fucked around with this message at 23:52 on Aug 12, 2014 |

Isn't the officer who shot the handcuffed man in the back on a subway platform already out of jail for that murder? Yeah I don't think the burden of proof needs to be all that extensive to justify a shooting.

Rap Record Hoarder posted:These dudes have better equipment than my battalion did in 2009 while gearing up for a deployment, and it seems like they have less stringent of a SOP regarding engagement with civilians than we did too. Have you not seen the shooting of the hobo in the middle of the desert? Their only SOP is suspect has something in his hands.

Did they really leave his body out in the open for hours? Because I've been an eye witness to a motorcycle crash causing death and they remove the body pretty drat quickly since all the officer needs is to photograph the body at several angles.

I like how the officer uses the word "aggressors" on the KDSK stream. (not really) Where the gently caress does he think he is? Iraq? Fallujah?

I really really love how my earlier post about the "possible" smear campaign of Michael Brown was optimistic at best. It's already a full-blown characterization of Michael as some seasoned criminal "bumrushing" a cop that is already shooting at him after having run away. Totally makes sense...

Reminds me of the assholes that shot up a bum in the desert and sic a dog on him and smash his hand then handcuff him while he lay bleeding to death. Even after he said he could not move and then he dies.

Evil_Greven posted:Can we please talk more about the Michael Brown Shooting instead of random suicide by cop guy? It is so ridiculous that the simple act of lowering arms can be construed as a justification of the use of deadly force on an unarmed man. Seriously that poo poo ain't right. The pre-requisites for the use of deadly force should be so much more stringent than the belief of bodily harm. Whatever happened to right to life?

The moment Brown started to run away the threat was gone. There is no way around it but American laws are hosed up when it comes to poo poo like this, imo.

joeburz posted:The depressing thing is those types of racist cultures are certainly not exclusive to Ferguson or just smaller townships, nor is it something that is coming out of the blue. It's been that way for decades all over the country and plenty of people acting appalled at the release of information is done to deny that Ferguson isn't the only PD with problems. Pretty sure people who denied that institutional racism exists are being disingenuous.
