It isn’t just my fellow beaners getting chupito while boracho. Now whitey finds himself in the crosshairs, and we, I mean they, are scared shitless. I have a close relative who is a cop, and when I show him police brutality videos he, without question, justifies it. He’s a very generous guy, but the brainwashing is so thorough he cannot recognize even the most obvious cases. Odelay.

That was flat-out murder. The guy was trying to walk away and they were getting bored or tired of walking after him. Bb, of course he should have done what he was told – because they had badges and guns. It doesn’t mean they can legally shoot him if he’s not threatening their safety. Those guys need to be imprisoned. I think they soon will be.

are you fucking stupid? it happens everyday and it’s called “suicide by cops” by the cops themselves. does it makes murder legal? hell, no. I can’t wait that a rogue cop punch holes in your ass because you looked at him.

this country has a severe case of bad cops

Iska,

You are dreaming. Four weeks paid administrative leave, district attorney states it was justified, and copfuk is back on patrol.

Frenchie,

“bb, are you fucking stupid?”. Yes, he is our village idoit and loves copfuks.

Yes, you are a troll, and as a troll, he who does not obey orders, needs to be killed, so do trolls, for they also do not obey orders, right?

Your one fry short of a Happy Meal bb. But you can fix that with a drive thru window.

Seriously, people are at some point going to lose it. At some point there will be a backlash and it will not end well for the police.

It would have been helpful to provide a link to the background of this video. I searched and found it:

“SALINAS, Calif. — Police killed a man armed with garden shears after he attempted to attack a dog and some officers, authorities said.

“Officers were called to a home about noon PT Tuesday after a woman reported that a man had jumped her fence and was trying to attack her pet with scissors, said Cmdr. Vince Maiorana of the Salinas Police Department.

“When officers encountered the man a block away outside a bakery, he made no attempt to hide the garden shears, didn’t respond to being talked to in English and Spanish and began waving the garden shears in the air, Maiorana said. Officers tried to use a Taser on him unsuccessfully.

“This individual pulled the gardening shears and actually attempted to attack the officers with the gardening shears,” Maiorana said. “In response, the officers, fearing for their personal safety, shot this individual, and this individual is now deceased.”

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/05/21/garden-shears-killing/9384273/

Seems like the first “pop” sound is the taser the cops tried to deploy. Video is too grainy to see any garden shears being waved or used in a threatening manner. The USA Today article seems to be the police version of events, of course.

In any case, looks like excessive force to me. This is the norm now. We had a similar incident here in Northern VA last year when a food service employee at a Costco went nuts and threatened her supervisor with a knife inside the store. County sheriffs were called and pumped several bullets into her, also after attempting to use a taser that had dead batteries (IIRC). There was indications that the person was on medication that affected her behavior.

The person in the video may have been on drugs. Most people would stop if cops had their weapons drawn on them. I know I would.

More from RT news:

“Witnesses disagreed with this version of events, though. Video of the event surfaced as well, with the female college student behind the camera saying the man looked like he was trying to back away from the officers the entire time.

“In the wake of the shooting, police also stated the suspected robber was drinking heavily beforehand. They said the previous two shootings also involved individuals who were intoxicated at the time.

“This detail did not seem to change the minds of many protesters on Wednesday, one of whom told local KSBW that alcohol use should not justify excessive and lethal police force.

“So basically if you’re drunk here in Salinas you run the risk of getting shot by police and it just shows the lack of training … that they have to resort to lethal force all the time and kill civilians,” protester Ralph Garcia said. “That’s not right, we’re not going to allow this.”

A second shooting death resulted when a protest occurred the following day:

an alert to all of TBP, bb has voiced interest in becoming a federal level copfuk so be on the lookout for the following individual.

[imgcomment image[/img]

he will likely be waving a badge, spouting off the greatness of his M1 rifle, talking about shooting innocent people or going down on a fellow copfuk, avoid this statist dipshit is the best course of action.

We feared for our integrity. He was drunk, what makes hime very dangerous, had a garden scissor he used as weapon, and we were only two against him.

You see, what if they make us a cut and we have to live all our lives with that scar. The Lord forbid that scar to be in the face. That would have put a shameful mark on us for the rest of our lives.

I feel a deep regret for the outcome, but I had no option. I just want to do my job and come back home safely.

Most of you are full of shit and live in a fantasy world.Most of you are like Harry .Scared little pussy people who hate authority figures but the police you will call in a dangerous situation. I don’t hate cops and I don’t love them either. I realize they have a job to do like the military or national guard units.When cops do break the law they should be fired or put in jail or both.

amen to this statement.
“When cops do break the law they should be fired or put in jail or both.”

except the copfuk apologists (copsuckers) can never find where they break the law or they are protected under “qualified immunity.” and that’s a real term in our orwellian country, look it up if you want.

Cops seem to know a potential victim is begging to be shot when the perp displays garden equipment in a threatening manner. This is not the first time a victim tries to fend off a cop with garden tools.

A serial killer who was shooting gays in a park in SF said the victims were on their knees with their pants down. When he put the gun to the back of the victim’s head, he invariably begged to be killed, he would say, please, please…
