Railroad conductor is a more dangerous job than being a cop.



eh, I think the stats representing danger of being a cop are mitigated by proactive violence against civilians who are, could, or mistakenly might be a danger.

I respect cops but it takes a special bootlicker like troy to support them while they are pulling you over without reasonable suspicion and shooting non-threats bc they are scared.

Nobody touched that.

They most certainly did.

Here is Baldona explaining it to you twice, once on page three and again on page nine. I don't care why you didn't respond, but you didn't. To your credit, you were so wound up at that point that you were literally arguing with people agreeing with you.

Here are the quotes from your anchored thread:
quote:

You realize a major reason to pay for a plate and registration is to pay for the very roads that you drive on right?

A better comparison would be why do you have to pay for the electricity that powers your toaster?


Then:
quote:

You understand you don’t need registration to drive on private property right? If you own 100 acres and never leave it, don’t have to register. Registration does many things, one is to certify the vehicle isn’t a danger to others and the other helps to pay for th roads the government manages. That the government pays for and builds and maintains.

It’s your choice, don’t drive on the government roads or register. It’s not as complicated as you make it.

How many were shot, but not killed? How many were shot at, but not hit? Some of you are just completely irrational when it comes to the police. Not a cop, never wanted to be. Just a citizen who believes that everyone has the right to defend their lives, whether they wear a badge or not. I don’t think a little bit of common sense and compliance is too much to ask. Honestly, some of the responses here makes me want to give even more of the benefit of doubt to the police. If it is too much to ask, to not have people doing hinkey, possibly dangerous shite, and just a little bit of compliance if not respect, then I would be less inclined to convict on a questionable shoot.

We hire these people to deal with the dregs of society. We expect these people to put bad guys in jail, so they can’t harm us, or our families. Then we turn right around and expect them to give the drop to these people, even if it kills them.

This medic shite gums up both this and that other thread as it has nothing to do with the discussion at hand, but....

In WI you have to register off road vehicles, things like 4 wheelers and snowmobiles, even if they never leave your property.

I agree about this thread, and I'm done with it, but the other thread was disingenuous from the start and he only included in his OP what he knew would make the girl look like she is perfectly innocent. He even edited to post more pics of her smiling selfies. He knew exactly what he was doing, and that is why the shite thread was anchored. He will still argue about it, though he doesn't have a leg to stand on.

That's the last you'll hear from in regard to him and this particular incident.

I checked it, and my response is the same. Roads can be paid for by taxes that are voted on by the people. They don’t need me to register my personal property for that purpose.

You’re the one who brought this bs from the other thread into this one. I’m done, move on.

I mean, at some point you have to draw a line between what’s reasonable and unreasonable, and hold cops accountable if their frick up causes unnecessary loss of life.

I don’t know what the ASP investigation will find when this is all said and done. AFAIK nobody other than the police have seen the body cam footage yet. But from what I can tell the murder rate in the nearest city to this shooting is like 1/7 that of Baton Rouge. To the extent that most years, there are zero murders. So I’m inclined to believe that these deputies probably don’t get shot at very often.

Maybe some of you Arkansas folks can educate me, but let’s not act like this is a beat cop in Chicago.

For six days, family and friends have protested outside the Lonoke County Sheriff's Department seeking justice for the teen they say was a hard worker, who was working on his truck when he was pulled over by deputy Davis.

Hunter's family has now started a petition with more than 2,400 signatures as of Tuesday.

They are hoping to get legislators' attention to create Hunter's Law which in the petition said would mandate all officers in Arkansas to wear a body camera and require them to be activated for the entire shift.

"We've had a lot of help from community members. Because a lot of people have seen this as wrongdoing,” said Brittain.


quote:

The Arkansas State Police said Tuesday the investigation remains open.

We learned Tuesday the Lonoke County Sheriff's Office did hand off body cam footage to the state police, however, the Brittain family feels they have been denied this transparency.

According to Sheriff John Staley, it’s unclear when the camera was activated during the incident. Arkansas State Police will not release that information until its investigation is complete.

"It's a waiting game to see what the prosecutor comes up with. It's not going down like this,” said Brittain.

As state police investigate the use of deadly force, Sheriff Staley has opened a policy and procedures internal investigation. That also remains open.

Exactly. Follow the orders of the representatives/protectors of the citizens (police) and you will live. Don’t and you may not.

update
An Arkansas sheriff’s deputy who fatally shot a teenager during a traffic stop has been fired after the sheriff said he did not activate his body camera until after the shooting took place.

Lonoke County Sheriff John Staley on Thursday said Sgt. Michael Davis was fired after it was discovered he didn’t follow the agency’s body camera policy in the moments leading up to the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Hunter Brittain on June 23.

The shooting is being investigated by Arkansas State Police. Staley said there’s only footage of the aftermath of Brittain’s shooting.

In other news regarding Brittain’s death, civil rights leader Rev. Al Sharpton, president of National Action Network (NAN), will deliver the eulogy at Brittain’s funeral on Tuesday, July 6, at the Beebe School Auditorium. The service is scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m.

According to a release from NAN, Brittain’s family requested Rev. Sharpton deliver the eulogy.

KATV reported Wednesday that the Brittain family has retained the same lawyers as George Floyd’s family to represent them in court. Click here for that story.

Cop cars need to have those 360 cameras that are always recording and their body cams need to activate the moment they leave their vehicle.

That is unfortunate since it will be basically impossible to determine what happened.
