I will add though. Don't think that complying is a 100% fail safe. For example. Would you "comply" if an officer asked you to let him search your car?

---

Why did you feel the need to add that?

I said "drastically reduce your chances" twice. How do you read that as suggesting 100% certainty?

And to answer your question, I would, and have. After running a redlight. Nothing happened outside of a larger delay.

It's comparing a subset of both cops (those who will use force illegally/wrongly) and the general population (those who would sexually assault/rape women for dressing the wrong way).

---

Well, here's another difference. NONE of the general population has state sanctioned authority to FORCE me to stop against my will at the point of a gun.

And let's just get off this "subset of officers" thing. Because no offense, this wasn't some random bad cop. Morevoer, it almost NEVER is.

It's always at least one complete shithead with 2-4 who don't do jack shite to stop it which pretty much KILLS the whole "few bad apples" bullshite. And, in this case, it was literally 5 cops who ALL acted in the same gang member manner.

If, when I'm driving around, my chances of running into rageaholic police is THAT fricking high, well...........I might tend towards fligth myself.

You ALLOWED a search of your car?

You're a fricking moron then. I'm sorry. That's just stupid.

Considering the millions of police interactions happening every day, if it was that common we wouldn't have to wait weeks/months for the next big police freak out.

Police abuse of authority is ABSURDLY common daily occurrence.

It devolving into murder isn't common. But, their approach to citizens is such that it's pretty much doomed to happen. When you treat people as if they're your children and yuo have daddy authority over them, this will EVENTUALLY happen.

Definitely. Look at the dude in NC who got shot in the doorway of his camper. They lied through their teeth to protect their idiot brother in blue.

---

We are talking about a group of people who HONESTLY think that if they come blasting thru your front door at 3AM screaming, that the average person who is sleeping with a gun next to their bed(typically in a shite neighborhood) is somehow the bad guy for shooting at them!

quote:

Bingo. That's just drooling level stupid.

The dude ADMITS a subset of cops aren't to be trusted...........and allowed a search of his car.

I mean holy frick......

Not beaten to death, but walk me through the Charles Kinsey shooting and legal outcome. They can shoot you, while complying, and 5 months probation, 100 hours of community service, and a 2500 word essay is the going penalty in my state.

Or the shooting of the poor fricker in a Vegas hotel that multiple officers had crawling towards them. They GOT OFF! Their excuse. They THOUGHT he was reaching for a gun when, while crawling, he reached to adjust his pants which were falling off his arse.

Note, they, at no point had actually SEEN a gun. And, were playing a fricking warped version of simon says with conflicting orders.

But if a cop uses the words "officer safety" and "thought he was reaching", it's basically one fricking giant get out of anything free card. No matter how fricked up the direction.

Let's not even get into the fact that their definition of "resisting" is comical bullshite. They seem to think that people have spaghetti arms while getting cuffed or are able to freeze in place while being tazed.

ALL of those type cases caught on camera today are cases that 20 years ago, we just believed the cops when they said, "he resisted".

Cops have been CLEARLY trained to say specific phrases for the camera. It's a joke.

This case highlights another aspect of the folly of blaming the victim.

You know who is LEAST likely to perfectly follow police commands? A completely innocent person who finds themselves mistakenly in the crosshairs of officers.

The dude is Vegas was visibly shaking. You could see it from 40 feet away. He was terrified because he's got 3-4 cops with ARs pointed at him telling him if he doesn't perfectly follow their instructions, they'll shoot. And had NO frickING IDEA AT ALL of what got him into that situation.

Kinsey wasn't trained for the situation he found himself stuck in either. The people who are SUPPOSED TO BE frickING TRAINED are the ones in blue. Yet, when it ends up in court, we go over the behavior of their victims with a fine toothed comb as if it's some situation they should be 100% prepared for from birth.

That was in Mesa, AZ. Daniel Shaver was the victim. I actually made my mom watch that one on Friday, before the Nichols video got released.
