Are you under the impression cops never get fired?


No. I’m under the impression they’ll get a vocal defense no matter how much they’re at fault, and so to will their “victims”.

Roger, you say you’re anti cop, you know they get away with all kinds of shite, yet you are in here arguing that they usually pay the proper price. That’s horseshite and you know it.

Daniel Shaver is the most fricked up police shooting case I have ever heard of. The ironic part is Daniel was white.

Some other shootings that the guy wasn't resisting at all and still got shot

Philando Castile
Charles Kinsey
Jonathan Price
There's some more cases that I can't think of at the time.

But yea, in general, by far the majority of police shootings do happen when the person is arrested.

Isn't Dallas where the broad cop opened up on a guy in his own apartment, that she thought was hers?


Is that really considered a "police shooting"? She was off duty and entered an apartment that she thought was hers.

Cop wasn’t even fired in that case.

Brailsford was reinstated to the Mesa Police Department in August 2018, and then was granted retirement on medical grounds about a month later with a pension of $2,500 per month.[4] Brailsford's lawyer has said that Brailsford suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder due to his shooting of Shaver and the resultant criminal trial.[5]

“The 2019 death in Springfield, Ore., was one of 1,324 fatal shootings by police over the past six years that involved someone police said was in the throes of a mental health crisis — about a quarter of all fatal police shootings during that period, according to a Washington Post “database.

Around here 1324 would be called plenty, and that’s just mentally ill.

Newsflash....There are indeed some bad cops, like there are bad (fill in the blank).

If they break the law, they should be charged and tried like anyone else. Period.

However, we need a national public awareness campaign to get people to stop resisting.

No, if you resist you shouldn’t get the death penalty, but you absolutely are making the cops make split decisions and bad outcomes WILL happen. If you resist, you open that door and are at least partially responsible for the outcome.

It is really that simple, but that doesn’t fit the narrative.

Apparently the cop that murdered him was acquitted.

Unbelievable.

That young white guy in the hotel hallway
He wasn’t brandishing any weapon at the time the police showed up, but I believe the police were called because he was shooting a pellet gun out of a window.

Daniel shaver. That cop's acquittal may be the single biggest miscarriage of justice I've ever seen.

True. For someone that represents himself as the smartest man on the board, I wouldn't expect you to blatantly lie about shite that is easily refutable.

Jeremy Mardis, 6, had his hands in the air.

Eta: his dad did as well. Dad lived, son did not. Something like that would haunt me forever.
