BRPD Officers Threatening to quit

I'll be curious to see if some do, or if it more of a leverage to get more pay by threatening to leave. Article is from the Police Chief's talk at a Together BR event.
Advocate Article
This. I always have the hardest time when I see how different situations play out. When I see white criminals killed by police, race is irrelevant of officer to me, I am thankful that scum was removed from the community.
Reverse the role, no matter how much of a criminal the black guy may be, it is automatically portrayed as racial or that we have an out of control police hunting the black man problem.

I know BRPD cops who are already just fed up with the lack of support from the current administration.

The city of St. George will have plenty of employment opportunities for them.

They will make an excellent first class for the St George PD.

That's because the white folks would be celebrating the death of a thug criminal, not mourning the loss of a benevolent angel who was only selling pirated CDs and brandishing a firearm with a pharmacy in his system to support his children.

Paul told the group about a new program in the works where officers would conduct a risk assessment of a household if police have been called more than a set number within a defined period of time. Paul said officers likely would work hand-in-hand with pastors and clergymen on projects like this.

“We really think that programs like that and the community policing is starting to help our officers have a different understanding,” Paul said. “Remember, we are changing perceptions: How you see the police officers and also how our police officers see the communities that we serve.”
He just doesn't get it
Baton Rouge has enough programs & committees & organizations
None of that crap is going to make a criminal stop breaking the law

The Sterling fiasco would be enough for me to not want to put my life on the line protecting and serving the people of BR.

Racism that cannot be cured

WOW, Shocker.. Didn’t see that coming. 
Hey BRPD and Mayor.... Good luck in attracting high caliber candidates for your police department. You’ve all but said that you do not have their back. Why would anyone in their right mind want to put their arse on the line for people like you?

Murphy Paul = Broome's puppet. She is controlling the strings and tells him what to say and what not to say

Damn, did the Chief of Police just admit to racial discrimination as the basis for firing an officer?

I read this as him, the mayor, gravy, and North BR wouldn't care about the shooting
Is that how anyone else sees this?

Things are about to get lit around BR.

Yeah, because you wouldn't have fired or even disciplined anyone.

You know what? I agree, we wouldn’t be talking about it, because this would never have made it to the feds, or the state, or even a blip on the media radar. We wouldn’t have had police die and made to be permanently mentally handicapped as a result of a shooter trying to kill police and exact revenge.
You’re right. If Alton Sterling was white, we wouldn’t even remember it because it happened so long ago and it was just two cops doing their job and an armed criminal going for his gun.

Well, I know it’s not a popular opinion on here but I think Salamoni deserves to be fired. I was a strong defender of him until that last round of video came out. In my mind, he definitely escalated the situation. I don’t think he should be charged and I definitely still think Sterling was wrong in many many ways, but Salamoni didn’t help the situation at all. I’ve been on the wrong end of of an over zealous cop (well, it was a prison guard because he was taken off the street for the same behavior), and that was very unprofessional and bullish of Salamoni.
