Dude. It doesn't matter what *I* said. What matters is what happened. Read the many articles that are available. Why do you want to argue with ME so bad?

And on that video it sure as shit looks like two cops holding down somebody while the one who ate too many donuts was kicking him in the ribs. Very heroic by the man in blue, huh?

I would've loved to have talked with that 107-year-old guy. Beating people up? Barricading himself in his home? Fighting off a SWAT team? HE'S 107 YEARS OLD. I know people in their 50s who can barely make a pot of coffee. This guy must have unlocked the fountain of youth.
Too bad they shot him to death.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Another police execution.

Quote:CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - The deadly encounter was set in motion when a former college football player survived a wreck and went searching for help in the middle of the night. A frightened woman heard him pounding and opened her front door, then called police. Officers found the unarmed man, and one shot him when a Taser failed to stop him from approaching.

The big cop was arrested. Did you see the injuries? The cop dragging the mom?
I still say she's lucky he didn't sit on her, maybe he was hungry?
what a bunch of pigs
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

New York. This is the second time in recent memory that cops have fired without thought to the bystanders in the line of fire.

Quote:Police officers fired shots at an agitated man in Times Square late Saturday, thinking he was armed. The bullets struck two bystanders instead, though the injuries were not fatal. TODAY's Thomas Roberts reports.
I'm sure the city is happy that the wounds were not fatal....or course, now the women are able to testify at the negligence trial so maybe it is a wash.

I'll let you know when he's acquitted.

Quote:Former Phoenix police Officer Richard Chrisman will spend at least five years in prison after a jury found him guilty of aggravated assault for pointing his gun at the head of a domestic-violence suspect during a 2010 confrontation that ended with the man’s death.
Jurors could not reach a unanimous agreement on whether Chrisman committed second-degree murder when he shot and killed 29-year-old Danny Frank Rodriguez or whether Chrisman committed animal cruelty when he killed Rodriguez’s dog.
So, they can agree that pointing his gun at the head of the guy was "aggravated assault" but they could not agree that then blowing him away was murder.
Fucking juries are a big part of the problem.

When the alternatives are impartial(my ass...) judges or mob rule, I'll take the jury.

Quote:The family of a 12-year-old boy known only as “A.M.” in court documents is suing police, the American School for the Deaf and the city of Hartford, CT over allegations that police unnecessarily Tasered the boy after school officials abused him and denied him food. According to the Courthouse News Service, the student ran away from the school to a construction site to escape staffers who had beaten and choked him, and it was there that police Tasered the boy, who is “profoundly deaf,” with no warning.
