Hell just get a law enforcement job in the next county over. Won't even have to move.
And jail.
We also call for him to be put in jail.
I'm an ALPHA MALE because I BEAT UP High School GIRLS!
-Republicans!
And prison time? I'll never understand the sick fucks who try to gaslight me into believing that cops are held to a higher standard than the average everyday person.
This is racism, pure and simple.
I'm just glad we have video evidence of it these days. Sometimes.
This is why I have mixed feelings on the "pervert glasses".
On one hand, perverts.
On the other hand, more filming of police brutality that often goes uncaptured.
It is pretty easy to record without those glasses.
If you're lucky enough to have bystanders.
In situations where you're alone with a cop, reaching for your phone can be seen as threatening and suddenly you have a few bullet holes.
Firing. Out of a cannon. Into the Sun.
It's a spectacular waste of resources in any other circumstance, but I wholeheartedly support this initiative to set an example.
Future offenders will however be aimed significantly lower, towards a 3 meter thick concrete wall instead.
Why not off a cliff? Let them come to terms with their own mortality as they plummet to their doom. Bonus points if it's into the ocean with jagged rocks.
It’s a spectacular waste of resources
I'm sure you could fire many at once. Just have to concentrate them first. Fortunately the USA already have places for that.
I'm teaching my kids that the biggest threat they will face in this hell hole is police. I'm coaching them on what to say and to make it a priority to avoid cops at all costs. Never call them either.
Who would have thought giving a bunch of unqualified people guns and the authority to use it, no punishment for those caught, along with a culture that protects bad behavior, would be so problematic?
Yeah I don't see how anyone could say he doesn't deserve life in prison without parole. His family should be fleeing town and changing their last name out of just shame.
I hate all this hyperbole. Should he get years behind bars for doing horrible things while in a position of authority? Yes, absolutely.
Life without parole? This isn't even a murder.
Pretty much all sentences should be lower in America.
This is the footage that was caught.
We shouldn't punish people for hypothetical crimes either though.
He abused his powers in such a way to abduct a young woman, create a situation she can't fight back, slammed her on the ground, talked shit while punching her in the face.
Life in prison isnt hyperbole. The family should sue for everything he has and if his state has the death penalty I'd be perfectly happy with the firing squad, hanging, lethal injection, etc.
Personally I think the people tasked with upholding and enforcing the law should be held to a higher standard and face much strickter penalties when they break those laws.
Plus lifetime disqualification from working in law enforcement. Many states do have registries of who is and is not qualified to work in law enforcement but they're each for their own state since the rules vary between states. A registry of those banned for misconduct needs to be federal and enforced so someone banned in one state can't be hired in another state or by the federal government.
I agree. That's still not life in prison.
There is no shame to be found in much of America anymore. It's disgusting.
At what point are people going to stop asking the police to investigate themselves and start administering vigilante justice? Police are basically free to rape and murder in the streets at this point.
I know entirely too many racist bigoted religious pieces of shit that aren't cops who care an entirely too much about completely made up bullshit to condone vigilante justice
This is awful. These vicious monsters prowling our streets can only be kept from invading our communities with violence.
THE POLICE PROBLEM
The police problem is that police are policed by the police. Cops are accountable only to other cops, which is no accountability at all.
99.9999% of police brutality, corruption, and misconduct is never investigated, never punished, never makes the news, so it's not on this page.
When cops are caught breaking the law, they're investigated by other cops. Details are kept quiet, the officers' names are withheld from public knowledge, and what info is eventually released is only what police choose to release — often nothing at all.
When police are fired — which is all too rare — they leave with 'law enforcement experience' and can easily find work in another police department nearby. It's called "Wandering Cops."
When police testify under oath, they lie so frequently that cops themselves have a joking term for it: "testilying." Yet it's almost unheard of for police to be punished or prosecuted for perjury.
Cops can and do get away with lawlessness, because cops protect other cops. If they don't, they aren't cops for long.
The legal doctrine of "qualified immunity" renders police officers invulnerable to lawsuits for almost anything they do. In practice, getting past 'qualified immunity' is so unlikely, it makes headlines when it happens.
All this is a path to a police state.
In a free society, police must always be under serious and skeptical public oversight, with non-cops and non-cronies in charge, issuing genuine punishment when warranted.
Police who break the law must be prosecuted like anyone else, promptly fired if guilty, and barred from ever working in law-enforcement again.
That's the solution.
