What Don’t Police Understand?

What a sin. People should riot. .... wrong word. People should strongly PROTEST! It might be something illegal but so was the first black woman who had the courage to sit at the front of the bus way back when.

And these dirtbags were found "Not Guilty" of 2nd degree murder - after torturing a starving, 80-lb. man for 30 minutes with boots, knees, nightsticks & a taser. And video proof.
Anyone else care to comment on "Police officers who get out of line being "severely reprimanded?"
 
99/9% of the cops are decent people, and quite stable considering the Crap they have to put up with on a regular basis. However, that .1% that uses their badge to intimidate the people can easily give All cops a bad name. We don't know what happened before this video was taken, and if there was some heated exchange that led up to this overreaction, but once the individual is restrained, there is NO need to continue being forceful.

You may recall several sadistic officers methodically torturing & murdering a homeless man - Kelley Thomas - for over 30 minutes. ALL of these perverts deserve the same treatment they gave their victim - a slow, painful death. Ironically, the victim's father is a police officer.
(warning - language & brutality)

(warning - graphic victim's photo)

Here are the results of the trial against the officers:
A judge declined to dismiss the charges against the officers in January 2013, finding that "a reasonable person could infer that the use of force was excessive and unreasonable."[10] An appeals court judge also denied a request to overturn the lower court's decision.[11] On January 13, 2014, Ramos and Cicinelli were found not guilty of all charges,[12] while the trial for Wolfe was pending.[13] Following the verdict for the two officers, the district attorney's office announced it would not pursue the case against Wolfe.[14] On January 17, 2014, charges against Wolfe were dropped.

I was referring to the officers that killed the man in Minneapolis.

Thanks, DonM., for being a "voice of reason" in this thread.

"Dirtbags" doesn't even come close to what they are!

I agree and I'll add ........

When ever theses things happen, the reaction it seems, is always against the police.....yes some are deserving but. Lets go back to what started it all, for just a moment. The committing of a crime. Had that not happened , then none of this would have either. Second, the refusal to summit to the arrest, and the need ? to fight with the police. Again, had that not taken place, this would likely not have happened either.

Now ..... If we are going to remind the police of their behavior ? and what not to do in the cases of arrest, and what is to harsh in the case of arrest. Then let us remind the criminal element in our society just a sternly ..... about what not to do in the first place ..... commit crime against our society.

For it is that behavior , that brings about each & every one of these situations.

Your 99.9% figure exists only in your imagination. If that fantasy were true, it would be very difficult to find such evidence because it wouldn't be as commonplace as it is. Amazing - the hours, months & years you invested in your dedicated poll to arrive at that figure. In your world, "Putting up with crap" justifies murder.
And, how many police officers are in your family?

And, it didn't take long for you to provide exactly what I posted about previously in post #16:
"You don't know how difficult a cop's job is"
"We don't know what transpired before the video" (as if anything justifies a 5-minute strangulation or a 30-minute torture-murder)
"This is an isolated case." (Yes....to the ignorant)
(one of my favorites: "Where would we be without police officers?"

Your desperation to justify a murder is obvious. A mentally-ill person does not always submit to arrest. However, that doesn't require 6 large officers torturing & murdering an 80-lb. man. But hey....keep trying.

First of all, I am not justifying anything..certainly not this..and I'll challenge you to show me where i did?

And if the criminal was indeed mentally I'll ? this is the first I have heard of it. It seems he was of "sound-mind"? enough for forgery . ?

Perhaps it would help if you review your own post.
 
I think what is more a travesty is when those cops go to court, somehow all four body cams will malfunction . And we're supposed to believe that. The cops will tearfully testify that they believed their lives to be in jeopardy, even when the suspect was cuffed and on the ground. I'm surprised the cops haven't yet found the suspect's gun, his stash of drugs, and his Mexican Cartel membership card.
It's pretty bad, when someone is a felon, but seems more law abiding than the cops. You keep thinking not all cops are that way, but these incidents keep on coming, and coming, and coming.

My sentiment to a T!

Well said, Fuzzy!
 
I'm sorry, but as poor as our justice system is, I prefer it to the vigilante system. This particular incident is despicable and tragic, but by no means are all police officers in this country corrupt and evil. These officers need to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

No one in their right mind is saying all police officers are evil....just as no one is saying all Catholic priests are child molesters.
The problem is not an unrealistic expectation of perfection anywhere in the human species.
The problem is corruption, widespread cover ups & a lack of justice.

Those who make excuses for criminal officers would quickly change their tune if one of their loved ones was a victim, instead of some "random" person.
