re: Coach O Statement Koy Moore

I also care more about my safety than convincing them. Why is it more important that cops go home safely than the innocent civilians they are tasked with protecting? Why am I subject to being shot because some highschool drop out with 6 weeks of training gets a happy trigger finger?

Approach me like a human until you have cause not to and “looking like someone who MIGHT have done something wrong” isn’t cause. Gtfo here.

Who said either was more important? They weren’t going up to Koy Moore to try to murder him. Come on dude. If they are investigating a crime involving a weapon and they are going to engage someone who “MIGHT” be a suspect then they are going to approach you accordingly. There’s actual instances of police being murdered in that way. Police aren’t just walking up to black people and shooting them in the head because they look like someone. Come on. You have to use some form of logic

It’s crazy that the “wait till we have all the facts” people are also the ones defending cops roughing up a kid because they were suspicious

---

Funny how people say we shouldn’t wait for facts. I mean did that actually make sense to you before you wrote it? We don’t need facts. We need you controlling the narrative and now adding that a “kid” was roughed up by cops for being suspicious. Where is your evidence of this?

So THIS is why he keeps a felon in his inner circle. Who better to handle matters between police and players than someone with real world, first hand experience dealing with breaking the law.

Your argument is that they shouldn’t disregard citizens safety because they took a dangerous job and now they’re scared. A cop thinks every situation is a dangerous one. Did you know that your lawn guy runs a bigger risk of not going home to his family than you’re average cop? It’s time for them to nut up and do actual police work instead of looking towards their sidearm to solve everything.

---

No I actually never made that argument. As far as we know they didn’t disregard Moore’s safety and if you use the standard of calling it unsafe for a citizen every time an officer has to use their firearm then they can just send you out there with no firearm and your hands in your pocket and let you respond to calls and engage potentially dangerous suspects. A cop thinks every situation is a dangerous one. Have you ever thought of why that may be? Or do you really have no clue? You’re right. We should tell them they took a dangerous job so suck it up and don’t take your own safety into account because The truly brave one sitting at a keyboard knows a better way!

I mean yea. Having a firearm used against you is pretty fricking unsafe. What are you trying to say here?

---

It’s a dangerous world. You shouldn’t go out if you’re so scared of police. You’re starting to sound like the one with the itchy trigger finger

Sounds like Ed has already rendered his verdict. Officers guilty of "social injustice and racism."

IF the officers are guilty of wrong doing let 'em be punished accordingly. And if Koy is falsely accusing the officers, Ed should help him opt out.

He forgot Geaux Tigers.

The fact that you think they should is pretty interesting

Is it? They couldn’t have their weapons drawn but not pointing at him? What? Are they afraid a suspect is so much quicker and more trained with a gun that he can draw it from its hidden location, point it at them, and fire beforethey can point theirs at the suspect and fire? Just how poorly are we training cops these days?

Coach O should worry more about what happens on the field and less about what happens off it.

---

Oh STFU. He should care greatly about anything and everything that affects his players.

You don’t seem to be aware of how quickly someone can pull a gun and shoot you. Your reaction will never be as fast as the first person. So yeah, I’d say they probably are afraid that a suspect may shoot them quicker than they can react.
