re: Any boot lickers here defend these police actions?

You are incapable of understanding a nuanced argument. It’s just immediate emotional condemn or defend the actions I.e. pick a side

It’s pathetic and demonstrative of most of the problems in this country right now.

Remember George Floyd? We had all the evidence. It was right there in the video! Oh wait… Cops were responding to a call They tried to put him in the back of the car first There were half eaten pills in the back of the cop car He had fentanyl and meth in his system He overdosed a few months prior in the exact same situation Etc. Don’t tell me you know all the facts a-hole

Wow a lot to unpack here.

1) The video for which this thread pertains shows an entire police interaction, from initial contact to arrest. The man is arrested for resisting arrest. The interaction on video is all the possible evidence that could exist in the universe to justify an arrest for resisting, and on the contrary it shows that he clearly was not resisting.

2) Even looking past the ridiculous comparison, you choose a reference case to support your stance that “more information could absolve the police here” in which all information and evidence was eventually presented and the cop was found guilty of murder.

You, for instance.

if your wife allows you to have that position.

It's actually impressive that someone can be this checked out from reality

I don't need an amendment to be a responsible and productive member of society. You?

It's a shame that people like you are allowed to vote

It really is

I don't think people know what it's like to be a citizen in an oppressive regime and I pray that we never find out

But these people would allow it to happen in the blink of an eye

The chick cop was bad enough, but the supervisor and his arrest for resisting is complete bullshite. No context is needed to come to that conclusion.

---

yea if there truly was something mischevious/dangerous he was suspected of doing prior to the video...he wouldnt have just been arrested for resisting.

some videos need more context, this is not one of them.

Woman cop with arm tattoos. Affirmative action hire. Checks 2 boxes.

So what you're saying is, this wasn't her?

Being arrested for resisting arrest and that only is the most circular nonsense ever

yea its so nuts. someone said that that was her supervisor in the video? IF thats true thats a whole other level of SMH and means theres a WAY bigger problem for that dept, the video is barely the surface of the malfeasance going on.

IMO a lot of cops public perception would be greatly improved if cops could just figure out fundamental things, IE when citizens can rightfully refuse requests/demands.
wouldnt be so much damning content for 1a/2a auditors, and body cams... you can ask but not compel ID from people without reasonable suspicion they are committing/committed a crime, not just because they 'think you looked suspicious'
