If we've learned anything it's that cops have zero problems engaging.

The thing that gets me (well one of them) about the current tangent is that we literally don't know how many unarmed people are killed by cops in the US because police departments all over the country refuse to report out every time they kill someone, despite being required to by federal law. Closest we can get is a couple newspapers and activist organizations who try to figure out details from articles posted in local papers.

And that also ignores stuff like Laquan McDonald being "armed" with a knife as he was wandering down a street before a shitbag ran up to him and magdumped into him.

I love that it takes non profits and newspapers to actually get the numbers, as even the CDC and FBI admit their numbers are bullshit. 2019 is a slow year so far, only 885 or so police murdering people which is lower than last year.

So good job guys, you did it!

We used to have cop lounge threads until '15 or so I think. I also think that was the last time we had a "ask a cop" thread.

Maybe because 2015 was the high water mark of cops killing black guys and most people decided to stop pretending they were anything other than an occupying force.

We had our cooldown, so let's check in on the upstanding folks of the NYPD, who we are continually reminded are great people cause they managed to stop shooting everyone (or at least reporting it):

They already don’t render aid to those they just shot. If anything, this will curb them desecrating the corpses by putting them in handcuffs while they’re dead/bleeding out.

Somehow I (and every other military member) managed communication just fine in MOPP, SCBA, N95s and every other mask under the sun but I guess that makes me Special because seemingly no cop itt or on the loving planet has figured it out and is coming to the flying defense of their fellows who are too loving stupid to Talk Loud but are also allowed to carry a gun.

I think a lot of people think of the dogs "ability" to smell things like drugs or bombs. Execpt it turns out the dog knows it can just bark for drugs even if there aren't any and still be a good boy (because the cop wants the false positive). Get the dogs out there, its hosed up to make a dog a tool of oppressive violence when they're really just trying to, you know, be good boys. And I'm saying in a cutesy dumb way but I'm serious, the dog doesn't have an understanding of policing and state violence and it's hosed up to make them do this, even of they like it it's wrong to encourage it because dogs, like, by definition, don't have restraint.

Oof I didn't know I had such strong feelings about dogs being agents of state violence.

Read about how Ferguson police used their dogs and you'll be even more in an uproar.

Mr. Nice! posted:

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.

https://www.1dca.org/content/download/728596/opinion/202193_DC13_04062021_132340_i.pdf

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.
