The Great Police Work Thread

[Cotton]

I went down a rabbit hole and ran across this from 2016. I had seen it before but it is definitely worth watching again. If you remember in 2016 there were 5 cops ambushed and killed in Dallas at a BLM "protest". It shook Dallas and most of Texas to its core. If you ever wonder what these heroes put on the line to protect us, this video should explain it. Very moving tribute.

Excessive force? Where?

In her defense, he was a bit of a "bitch ass".

Excessive force? Where?

Tasing him when he was already across the hood in cuffs? And wasn't really resisting?

He easily could have pushed off of her and kicked the shit out of her if he had wanted. I wonder who was filming that. If it wasn't another cop she was by herself. If it was another cop why the hell were they just standing there? Regardless, what she did in that video wasn't enough to get fired. That's ridiculous.

Her husband, a deputy, was also involved. The guy’s little brother was the one recording.

I mean using the taser because someone is mouthy is kind of the definition of excessive force.

Never said she was right, I said he was a bitch ass.

Disagree, all around. He was in cuffs. AND was not resisting.

You experienced working with people that are detained in mechanical restraints? I am. And I know the level of control that’s available. Especially if the cuffs are behind the back ( they were) instead of the front.

I will defer to you with your experience, but I still don't think she did anything to warrant losing her job.

Good thing she isn’t black. They would’ve revved everyone up with that shit. Personally, I’d like to see the police be rougher like this. You can’t tiptoe through the tulips with these belligerent fucks. Fuck them up, they’ll stop resisting.
