It just blows my mind they a negligent discharge even into the ground isn’t an instant career ender and hefty civil penalty. Much less a person or dog. Dipshit privates and seamen are held to a higher standard.

Welcome to Policing in the USA, where all the defenses are made up and the laws don't matter!

Cause seriously, at least half of the "being charged by a dog so I shot at it, thus striking my own dog, my partner, and 2 kids playing stickball" is just a dog coming over and barking.

In Florida, an appellate court has just ruled that if police are in fear for their lives, they become victims under Marsy's law and are exempt from public disclosure of their names. This is because two Tallahassee police officers killed people last spring. One case a guy was across a parking lot in a bush with a knife. Another was someone expressly attempting to suicide by cop who had an unloaded gun on them and was shot 5 times in the back.

There is no ability for police to be held accountable at all in Florida anymore.

Probably also stems from the cops no knock raiding a guys house, in plain clothes, attempting to arrest someone who lived there for prostitution so he opened fire on the people he thought were raiding his drat house.

That was a different situation. The guy there was found to have lawfully used force in self defense against the cops and charges against him were dropped. That situation would not change under this ruling as Marsy’s law was never implicated.

The new decision is about cops killing people and then avoiding public scrutiny for their actions.

The one benefit to social media is that unless a cop kills someone when no one is around, they will likely be outed at some point.

If a cop kills someone when no one is around (except other cops ofc) then we probably don’t hear about it anyway, so

Where are all of the Jade Helm folks bitching about a police state?

Cops in France are trying to do this now for a similar situation.

A Black music producer was brutalized by police in his recording studio and his security cameras caught it on tape, adding to the furor against the French government that began with the gas tax and yellow vest stuff. Now, they're trying to pass legislation that prevents the publication of police identities on social media, including things like the video that sparked the backlash.

A undercover cop car in nashville was a 740i an NTB manager called our napa about and started screaming obscenities at me when i said I didnt have the shipping info infront of me i would call him back as soon as i found the ticket for him. It was 7k worth of near racing quality pads and calipers if memory serves.

LAPD singlehandedly cratered the used market for the i3 a couple years ago when they dumped hundreds of the tiny things they had bought for detectives, staff and other non-patrol officers all at once.

I looked up the story, he was pulled over because they couldn’t see his license plate.

There is a temp taped on the rear window, weird that they missed that!



Also they pepper sprayed him while he tried to explain he was worried about getting shot if he undid his seatbelt

Remember when that kid was crawling on his hands and knees in hysterics in the hotel hallway and the cops shot him because he reached to pull his pants up?

Remember when Philando Castile was reaching for his license and cops kept shouting over his explanations and then shot him in front of his partner and her 4-year-old daughter?

I’m not reaching for anything either.

They were US Marshals. Does USMS report to the president?

edit: their parent agency is DoJ per wikipedia so I guess so

They weren't US Marshals, they were local law enforcement deputized as marshals

quote:

The federally organized task force, made up primarily of local law enforcement officers from Washington

[and]

The Pacific Northwest Violent Offender Task Force, whose local law enforcement officers were deputized as federal marshals, traced Reinoehl’s path up to Washington state and prepared a plan to take him into custody.

The shooting was done by local cops

quote:

James Oleole, a Pierce County sheriff’s deputy in the passenger seat of Merrill’s Ford Escape, said that as law enforcement vehicles pulled up and officers announced themselves, Reinoehl was in the driver’s seat of his Jetta and made moves with his arms “consistent with the moves that someone makes when they are attempting to grab a gun they have on their person.”

Although he did not see a gun, Oleole said, he began firing his AR-15 rifle through his own windshield at Reinoehl. Merrill, thinking the glass shards from the windshield meant he was under fire, exited the Ford Escape, saw what he believed was Reinoehl reaching for a gun and also opened fire. A third officer, also from the Pierce County Sheriff’s Department, had followed the others in an SUV and blocked Reinoehl’s Jetta from an angle. Also believing that Reinoehl was reaching for a gun, he opened fire with his 9 mm handgun.

In the reporting I read there's only one mention of an actual Marshal there


quote:

One of the officers on the scene, a deputy U.S. marshal named Ryan Kimmel who did not fire his weapon, declined to provide a statement during the investigation.

I'm sorry, a cop opened fire from inside their squad car, shattering the windshield and his buddy claims "he thought the shattered glass was an indication of them being shot at"?

Let me rephrase that:

This cop hears and sees his buddy open fire

FROM WITHIN THE CAR

SITTING BESIDE HIM

THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD

WITH A loving LONG RIFLE

and he's claiming this made him think THEY were being shot at?

And this is a statement that has held up under scrutiny?
