Fucking Cops

[Minimalist]

Well then since you are unable to express yourself clearly enough why don't you spell it out.

While we wait you can look and listen to this little gem.  Here are some of your heroes beating the shit out of a guy.

And then, when he sues the department, their friendly neighborhood  District Attorney indicts the beatee rather than the beaters.

Records: Charges renewed after alleged police brutality victim files intent to sue notice

At this point, I assume that you approve of such behavior.  Please correct me if I'm in error.

You made a claim, you support it. Otherwise it's a strawman. And I know you can't support it, or you would have jumped on it. You need to have a nice sit-down with the local mental health chaps.

Apparently we have another 'slice of psycho'.

All I ever see from you are the "there are good cops, too" routine...and maybe a picture of a cop rescuing a kitten or fixing a bike.  If you are willing to ignore the murders and beatings and only concentrate on that bullshit there is nothing I can do to make you explain yourself.  You are not looking very good at this point and if you can live with that, so can I.

Meanwhile, here's another fucker who gets away with murder because the DA played the 'grand jury' game.

Texas Cop Who Killed Unarmed Man Through Driver Side Window Will Not Face Charges

However, Brownsville police say they found a screwdriver inside the man’s car and that was enough for the Cameron County grand jury to not charge officer Rolando Trujillo Jr with any crimes Wednesday.
But the video does not show Jose Ramon Rodriguez using the screwdriver to lunge at the officer, which is the usual justification for killing citizens with screwdrivers.
But at this point, it does not matter. A 24-year-old man is dead and the cop who killed him will walk, even though any of us can see that his life was not in danger.
And it is still not clear exactly where in the vehicle was the screwdriver, according to local news reports.

And who is to say it wasn't planted by the cops after the fact anyway.  What's one less Mexican in Texas for these fuckers?

And much like xtians whining when they can't sprinkle their bullshit all over the landscape we get the same shit from the cops.

"There is no 'War on Cops'"; There is a Long-Overdue Conversation About Police Brutality

The increasingly bad image of police around the country is their fault and nobody else's.

Interesting little article.

In U.S., Confidence in Police Lowest in 22 Years

I imagine it will be even lower next year.

[Minimalist]

And then of course there is this study...one does wonder why this happens so often.

American police are 300% more likely to kill themselves than be shot and killed by someone else

In 2013, the last year on public record, 126 police officers committed suicide.

"Suicides can happen in any profession, but they occur 1.5 times more frequently in law enforcement compared to the general population," psychiatric nurse Pamela Kulbarsh wrote in an Oct. 9 article for Officer.com.
"Quite truthfully, the actual rate is probably higher as law enforcement suicides are more likely to be underreported or misclassified as accidental deaths. This misclassification usually occurs to protect the family, other survivors, or the agency from the stigma of suicide," she wrote.

Of course, it isn't always the cops' fault when they get bullshit complaints like this called in.

Bicycling While Black Triggers Call to Police in Marblehead, MA

At least they do not seem to have hunted them down and shot them.  Well, it was 9:34 in the morning.  Maybe there was a fresh batch out of the oven at Dunkin' Donuts.

So , you can't support your claim. I knew that.

[Gawdzilla]

Mini, you say that I think cops can do no wrong, etc. And you quote nothing from me that supports that claim. That makes it clear that you are lying.

And you're still a psychopath.

[Chad32]

There are good cops. There are also cops that choose to use their firearm instead of a taser when they're within taser range of a suspect. These are the kind of things that need to be mentioned, because people are being killed over screwdrivers and such.
