The Great Police Work Thread

[Cowboysrock55]

It is quite bad.

This one was unjustified.

Way more than leaning on George Floyd's neck.

Yeah just sad and awful.

 

[Smitty]

I don't even understand what they were afraid of.

Everything seemed cordial up until like ten seconds before the shooting. The officer seemed to flip a switch way too fast.

Also.... it's hot water. I get that you don't want boiling water thrown on your body but it's hardly life threatening, does not require lethal force to stop. And I didn't even see much indication that she was going to throw it at them anyway. They were just panicking because she picked up the pot? Maybe try tasing or tackling her first?

Horrific judgment and now you've caught a murder charge.

Exactly.

Any and all outrage is justified, yet for some reason you don't hear about it.

No marching. No Sharpton. No Crump. No rioting. Zip.

Why? Because it is more sad than sensational. You can't market outrage that has ambiguity.

Hold the officers accountable. End of story. They did something horrific.

And that absolutely needs to happen. They cannot slap him on the wrist either.

 

[bbgun]

I'da shot her.

 

[Cujo]

I'da shot her.

I literally just watched that. Fucking crazy. I would've been totally ok with it.

 

[bbgun]

I would've been totally ok with it.

She was using her car as a potential murder weapon. That justifies lethal force.

Bitch, I already posted that in the Outrage section because it was not an example of great police work.

You've been a little testy with booze lately.


Keep up the good work.

And I think Cotton wants to give me the Rittenhouse treatment.

 

[NoDak]

And I think Cotton wants to give me the Rittenhouse treatment.

He can get in line. I’ve already got dibs on that.


When is the DCC convention again?

 

[bbgun]

When is the DCC convention again?

Late October, roomie.

 

[Cotton]

And I think Cotton wants to give me the Rittenhouse treatment.

What the hell did I do?

 

[boozeman]

People getting tazed is always good for laughs.

[bbgun]

We should amend it to "The Great and Not So Great Police Work Thread"

 

[boozeman]

Fuck him. I would hope this is laughed out of court.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Damn, I feel bad for the kid. Broke his neck when he fell off the curb. Terrible timing on the taze for everyone involved.
