Howie didn’t do anything wrong at all. I can kinda see if you have a problem with Blaine’s tactics, but then again, I’m not out there dealing with these animals everyday

Lol at everyone claiming he should have waited for backup.

What is backup gonna do? He’s already not complying with 2 officers and a fricking gun to his head.

We’re they supposed to call dispatch and say, “um, this guy isn’t listening to us, can someone else come help us”?

That’s not how law enforcement works.

Ask
Tell
Make

That’s how it works.

Howie fricked up when he was born white.

That’s why he’s suspended and why Blaine is fired.

Regardless of his criminal background I just can’t understand going balls out on this guy per the cam video.


He clearly had an agenda. Saying he was gonna shoot him in the head. Pleading to the other cop to tase him more. Calling him a stupid mother fricker. Lol wut?

Blaine’s actions made sure he didn’t get his illegal gun out and hurt anyone else

I wish they released the videos before from start to finish instead of the middle of it. Seems like Lake had it under control until Salamoni came causing chaos. Sterling was in the wrong for not complying from the get go and Salamoni was in the wrong for how he handled the situation from the moment he got there. I am a big supporter of the police department but cops who acted the way he did and others who are in the wrong should not be police officers. The way Salamoni acted was somebody abusing his power with a badge and gun. He could have put officer Lake in a very bad situation. Police chief did the right thing of firing him and I didn't see anything wrong with officer Lake did. He probably got 3 day suspension so the police chief can see he gave him some type of punishment. This was just a lose lose situation on both sides.

I can see why he was terminated. At the same time I’m not going to Monday morning quarterback someone who has to detain an armed 300 lb person. Sterling clearly played a part in the what happened. Tough spot. Wonder if Dabadie terminates him? Or LeDuff.

I’m pretty sure 95% of this thread thinks that about you. How long have you known this guy?

This is random, but does anybody remember a video/thread posted on here a few months back of police responding to a call at this guy's house? It was body cam footage and the cop just handled the situation so calmly and professionally. He ended up shooting the guy because he had a rifle (I think), but it was just such a stark contrast to the videos just released.

If anybody has the video I'm talking about, can I get a link?

the real tragedy in all of this as a poster stated earlier is that officers from Dallas and Baton Rouge lost their lives. And in my opinion Salamoni is partly responsible

Considering the gravity of the situation and the snowball of events his actions caused, I think the chief is more than justified.


So salamoni should be fired because the black community decided to cause a fracas? Great idea. I’m sure that won’t bolster their position at all.

I'm pro cop in the vast majority of these situations, however, I think it's stupid for conservatives to be tied to this "back the blue" at all times mentality.

Although I am pro cop as well, I am more anti-thug. If the thug would have complied, his dumb arse would have lived another day.
