I am just going to stay as far away from officer friendly and his itchy trigger finger as I can.
Might or might not work.
But I will not go around making excuses for psycho cop in the interim.
Boy,I hope the day never comes when you need a cop!
Heaven save us from “scared” cops. They seem to be a bigger threat to law abiding citizens than drug dealers who for the most part kill other drug dealers.
‘I do not plan on making the bad life decisions this person made which put him in that situation, so comfort has no part in it.’
yep, purely the vic’s fault for having a couple of drinks and showing a gun to a couple of buddies...why, he practically invited the cops to ventilate him, suicide really, they had no recourse whatsoever, he was making all those ‘bad life decisions’...
No,they say he was unarmed.But that very foolish move,under the circumstances,was enough to put a "reasonable" cop in genuine fear.
I did not say it was the victim’s fault, he did not pull the trigger. But there is no use blaming everybody else when I can make sure I am not in the situation in the first place.
Actions and decisions have consequences.
And waving the gun out of the window of a hotel, just after the Las Vegas incident, was really stupid, at a Darwinian level.
You notice that not one cop has spoken out against him?
I am pointing out that there are bad cops out there and also that their co-workers know it and protect them.
Sort of like all mohammedans defend their own when they get caught killing people.
I worked in the ER of a large,"big city",hospital for years.It would take me a long time to explain to you just how foolish that statement is.
Because that was what he had been ordered to do.
I do too.
Because I flat out no longer trust them.
You be sure to tell them that as you're calling 911.And be sure to tell them how pig-like they are while you're at it.Knowing that,those cops will hurry right over to help you with the serial killer in your back yard! LOL!!!
“What planet do you live on, Planet Gestapo Boot Licker?”
Oh, I’m in for the read here.
Cops are psycho these days because they are trained to be that way.
The morning briefing is designed to establish “Us versus them” narratives and divide the cop from the rest of us.
It is designed to scare them into considering us, at least for the next shift, to be an enemy in a war.
And we reflect that image throughout our own day.
I am pretty anti-cop. Not all cops, but most. Like “It’s just the 90% of bad cops that make the other 10% look bad” sorta thing.
But I do understand with every single cop out there that they are being manipulated to hate me. To resent me. When a riot breaks out the cops are lined up not between rioters and businesses, not between rioters and the innocent - they are lined between rioters and town hall.
The government places cops in bad positions not to keep us safe, but to be their enforcers. The government is bad. They want cops to be violent, extreme and unhinged. It benefits them greatly to have footsoldiers on the ground who side with them.
It’s too much to ask for some to blindly follow orders, so instead they create an illusion where the insane orders are easily justified. It’s hypnosis.
See Post #51
Excellent. The comparison of a police officer to a rapist is perhaps more apt than you'd probably be comfortable with.
I don’t believe the shooter was the one giving the commands. Also, just for general information, I don’t believe the video was shown at the trial.
Daniel Shaver was shot on January 18, 2016. And he was not waving a gun out of the window of the hotel.
Seriously, when you’ve already succeeded in making an ass of yourself, it’s probably time to stop braying.
Just wondering - did you watch the video?
My sincere apologies, I will stop braying.
It was not the shooter doing the screaming. It was his sergeant next to him.
By the time Officer Friendly gets to your car, all interior lights on, keys on the dash, license, registration and insurance cards clearly visible, hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel, window down, puzzled look on your face...
Move slowly only when told. No sudden moves!
