I was just about to post this one. If it were not for that incriminating dashboard cam video, that cop would have said that the young man lunged for his gun and that would have been the end of it.
That's like, your opinion, man.
See what happens here...cop nearly kills a man (more luck than management) and the next minute he's being polite and addressing the victim as 'Sir' etc... I come across this a lot with police in my country; they approach you as if you are public enemy #1, do the damage then ask if everything is ok. Well just fuck right off...abuse of their position...die in jail you horrible fuck!

That's one lucky guy. Lucky the pumped up red neck cop with a Rambo fantasy, couldn't hit a barn door from twenty paces.
I hope he does get 20 years in jail and those yahoos that shot the guy in Walmart should join him.

Every one of these incidents makes it 100 times harder for the hundreds of thousands of good cops out there. Buddha, what a mess.

I normally am not one to assume "racism" whenever a white cop shoots or abuses a black guy, because I think cops of all races can be abusive dickheads to people of all races. But man, this one is hard to explain. The driver does reach into his car slightly faster than one might expect, after being asked for his license. But I have a hard time believing a white guy would have gotten shot for the same thing. The cop started shooting out of fear, and I have no idea why the cop was so scared, except that the driver was black.
I found myself wondering if maybe the cop was pulling him over for some reason that made him suspect the driver was armed and/or dangerous. Did you hear the cop say why he was pulled over? It's at the 2 minute mark. "Seat belt violation." Christ.
When I'm pulled over, which fortunately isn't often, I never start reaching for my license or into the glove box for my registration right away. I sit there with my hands on the wheel like a little bitch and when the cop comes to my window and asks me for my registration, I say "It's in the glove box, can I reach in there and get it?" Otherwise the cop might think I'm hardened criminal reaching in there for an uzi or something.

Indeed. Where are these good cops when their peers violate civil rights day after day? They are hiding behind the blue wall of silence. When police routinely cover up for police and jail sentences, should they ever occur, are laughable, how are we expected to believe there are all these good cops out there? From my perspective, the vast majority are either shitbags or covering up for shitbags.Falcon Randwick wrote:Edited that for reality purposes, Felgs...Felgerkarb wrote:Every one of these incidents makes it 100 times harder for the handful of good cops out there.

I can understand why they are so quick to draw and shoot, every cop on Cops ever, starts by telling viewers how he's literally putting his life on the line every single day (I always cringe when I hear that waffle).
Fair enough, but in reality his job isn't even the top ten most dangerous. Truck drivers, taxi drivers, roofers and window cleaners all fair far worse.
Should truck drivers also be able to use "appropriate force" when they feel endangered by the driving of a member of the public? Bonus points if he's black.

That's just the battle cry of the police, uttered before they begin their righteous duties busting heads and power tripping. Fuck the police. There are plenty of world travelers here and I think most can agree that things change from country to country - the food, the culture, etc. No two places are the same in almost any way. Except cops. Cops are fucking stuck up pricks whether they're Australians or Americans. Now there is a scale, and Europe has slightly less dickheaded police than the trigger happy Americans or the developing world. Incidentally, it is kind of sad that the country with the largest say in global affairs shares as much with the developing world as it does with the developed world it claims leadership in. Anyway, the point is that no matter where you go, cops are the same. The difference is in how much the state / society lets them get away with their bullshit. But with cops, give them an inch and they will take a mile. It isn't that the cops in the Netherlands are better than their American counterparts - Dutch culture is just better, and doesn't allow the same abuses. Those pigs would be shooting dead African immigrants in the streets of Amsterdam if they could get away with it.starkmonster wrote:I can understand why they are so quick to draw and shoot, every cop on Cops ever, starts by telling viewers how he's literally putting his life on the line every single day (I always cringe when I hear that waffle).

Anyway, I shall close by saying fuck the police.

Actually no, statistically that's more or less what you'd predict.Phuket2006 wrote:Not just fucked up but that cop is a BAD shot;

Police officers firing in anger completely miss their target most of the time, including when the suspect is not even firing back, which makes it all the more frightening to have a nation full of fat suburban heroes packing firearms for 'self-defense'.
