EPIC POLICE FAIL: You won’t believe L.A. cops are getting away with this mistake
The Daily Caller ^ | 1/20/2014 | Robby Soave

In pursuit of a dangerous black male killer, Los Angeles Police Department officers mistook two Latina woman for the suspect and fired one hundred shots.

Then, Torrance Officer Brian McGee thought he saw the suspect’s vehicle and rammed into it at full speed, nearly killing the innocent driver, David Perdue, a white man. McGee also fired three shots at Perdue.

But L.A. County District Attorney Jackie Lacey has decided not to press charges against McGee, since his error was “a reasonable mistake.”

There was a story yesterday from Ohio where a cop watched hard core porn with a “pre-teen” and masturbated with him.

The Prosecutor said “No crime”

Cops went into full hysteria during the Christopher Dorner incident...No joke..

They were ready to shoot anyone and anything that even remotely resembled him or his vehicle...In fact they went after targets that didn’t even remotely resemble the suspect or his vehicle..

One shoots and they all started shooting...Just hearing shooting over the radio and others started shooting anything that moved.

When they were the target it was most interesting and rather disturbing how they they reacted...

I’m sure that many thought that the extermination of the Jews was “a reasonable mistake”.

McGee’s actions are analyzed based on the totality of circumstances, which include McGee’s knowledge of Dorner’s previous threats and actions in the days and hours preceding these events, which gave rise to an atmosphere of fear and extreme anticipation,” according to Deputy District Attorney Geoffrey Rendon.

So, this guy could have done ANYTHING to ANYBODY and it would be excused.

Triple the pay.

That would be $300,000 here in SoCal.

I think it’s worth considering given the criteria. We’d end up with the best. Remember, no pensions, no bennies, no immunity, no unions, no tenure, no guarantees whatsoever.

Again, that 60s song, “Pigs”, comes to mind. It closes, “If you’re big, strong and stupid, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department wants you.”

“And in Boston as they rolled down the city streets, then under Martial Law, they were screaming, “

“I noticed back in the 90s that American cops were morphing into jack-booted thugs.”

That’s because in 1993 Janet Reno fired all the US Attorneys to cover up what was in 15,000 FBI files on complaints filed against police.

They’ve pretty much had free range ever since.

You’re democrat controlled city govts cover police misconduct up to avoid/lesson civil liability.

Like a bunch of dumb dogs barking and chasing a cat that happens across their path and darts across a field. About as useful.

Martial Law?

Rousting people from their homes, ordering them not to look out their windows and pointing a firearm at a citizen in his own home will suffice until the real deal comes along.
