Honest question, did you have that same opinion for Babbitt?

Inner self : “Cleave, do you yet give a flip?”

Cleave: “No, I can’t say that I do.”

One of the Troopers involved is now deceased. Single vehicle accident on September 22, 2020, only hours after he learned he would be terminated in connection with this event. No, not just a coincidence.

Tragedy all the way around.

Yep. They have trouble coming their way.

I'm shocked. Absolutely shocked.
Reminds me of that old "less State, More State" meme.

The fact that it took 2 years for it to be released is not a good look for decision makers in the department either

I understand the instinct to say "play stupid games..." but this was messed up. He does not seem to resist (according to the released footage, there may be other angles we don't see), once the car is stopped.

Initially State Police said he died as a result him crashing into a tree but they didn't release the video.

By the way this happened BEFORE JBE's reelection campaign. That's a touch suspect.

This seemed worse to me than the Floyd death (but again, not all the info is out yet).

The media and black people don't care about that 4 year old White kid that was murdered by that black guy.

I don't give a frick about what happened to Ronald Greene. Us White people need to realize a race war has been launched upon us and respond accordingly

I knew a cop that went out this way. Knew a federal indictment was coming down the pike - rightfully deserved - and he called in a ghost chase and rammed a bridge at 120 mph.

I can't go there. Tribalism isn't the answer. The impartial application of the rule of law is the answer.

People defending this are no different than the morons on the Left cheerleading the utter bullshite they're foisting on the country.

This country really does have a policing problem, but it's not racial. There is just as horrific video of whites being abused/killed by cops, but everyone gets hung up on race and we never get the real issue raised. Conservatives would be wise to be critical of abuse, and make their argument about it not being a racial issue. Because it's not.

Also, ironically - have you defenders of law enforcement considered who the ultimate victims will be of a militarized/abusive law enforcement industry? Look at what happened at the capital on 1/6 and every day since for a clue.

All are definitely pieces of shite

There’s a difference between defending it and not giving a rip. All my giving a rip is gone. That’s assuming I’m included in the “defending it” group

I’m not saying it’s right, but when you engage in a idiotic high speed chase, and officers finally catch up to you, they aren’t going to treat you with kid gloves. Adrenaline is a powerful thing and it can’t just be turned off with the flip of a switch because the chase ends. Therefore I have absolutely zero sympathy if you get punched in the face, tazed or called a stupid mother fricker in this situation.

Not enough details for me to put any blame on the cops. If the criminal doesn't run he doesn't ever get into the situation of being tased or dragged and he also doesn't get into a wreck. Did they do an autopsy? Were there any drugs in his system that could have made him more susceptible to cardiac issues? Also, what injuries were sustained in the wreck?

If you comply you don't die.

Very similar circumstances here. The primary theory on that type event is that the individual was intent on providing the family with life insurance payout. The policy would be voided in the case of suicide, thus the effort to make it appear as if it was simply an accident while in the line of duty.

I have no idea if you're in that group, but as far as not giving a rip, okay - but realize that posture is a) what a lot of us on the Right bitch about the nonretarded Dem voter that still voted for Biden, and b) it's also how the Right found itself in the political environment we're now in. Just my opinion, but I don't think the sitting back and letting the Left run roughshod over the country strategy is working.
