Media is going after the cops on everything!
The media is on a serious offensive to go after cops even in situations where they are not at fault.
Just today a bodycam footage was revealed of a cop shooting a black female who was about to stab someone.
Theres a slow motion of it at 10 mins in which clearly shows her about to stab another female.
The cop has been placed on leave and CNN/MSNBC are already destroying the cops involved apart. I definitely believe that cops need to be held accountable and that Chauvin's verdict is a victory for everyone. However, in a legitimate situation where a cop essentially saved another black female's life, people are still getting angry.
Honestly, I feel so bad for officers now. Yes, theres always going to be a bad egg, but dont go after the ones doing their job and protecting us.
chauvin's verdict is a victory for the liberal media
That was a no win situation for the cop. The risk/reward for joining the police force just isn’t worth it anymore thanks to the media
Yea its sad and the only ones that will be joining now are people with no other options/people who are eager to abuse their power which will only increase the cycle
When the supply of Policemen goes down in 1-3 years people will see how important the police institution is. Crime is going to increase dramatically soon. Nobody is trying to be a police officer these days.
More up-front and ongoing training, held to a higher standard, monitored and held accountable, and paid more.
I would welcome my tax dollars going towards that.
And it's entirely, completely based on bullshit that is easily disproven with googlable statistics. America doesn't have a police brutality problem, it has a crime problem. More specifically a 13 committing 50 problem. But the cultish emergent religion of wokeism breaks the part of otherwise intelligent liberal brains that let's them translate data into reasonable conclusions, so we get nothing but histrionic screeching and insane bullshit.
There's already strong data supporting the idea that BLM riots have caused homicides to spike sharply, completely swamping the decrease in police shootings. Wokie (often white) shitlibs spam a bullshit narrative about a shooting on MSNBC/Wapo/NYT/social media, riots happen as a result, police respond by scaling back patrols and police aggression. Police shootings go down (mostly armed criminals, which is the overhwelming majority of black people shot by police) but homicide spikes up significantly.
Net result is wokie morons getting a bunch of black people killed, but feeling really good and virtuous in the process.
Yup, major 13%er problem.
I'm fucking tired of black people not talking about the delinquency in their own community. Nobody deserves to die in these scenarios, but if you keep acting like a damn fool then of course tragic shit like this will happen. I wish these people focused as much attention on making good decisions and as they do on yelling at police officers and justifying scumbag criminals. The kind of people who encourage this kind of behavior make me sick. How about learn a bit from the Jews and Asians? Go to school, don't do drugs, and don't do any hoodrat shit that will get you in trouble. I don't even give a fuck if I sound racist, this is getting ridiculous.
How do you know black people aren’t talking about all the bad shit that happens in their community? Oh, right.. you have no idea what the fuck you’re talking about.
all the black people I know acknowledge the disproportionate crime stats, and it pisses them off that they get grouped into that same basket.
Stop believing everything the media tells you
Well if they're going to talk about it, they should be about it.
How long is it going to take for people to realize the government won't solve their problems? Do you know how easy it is to not be a single parent? I'm sure you remember how easy it is to graduate high school. It's not hard to not be obese, and it's not hard to take care of 95% of the issues that plague these communities with a little personal responsibility.
Racism isn't making them obese, racism isn't making them pregnant, and racism isn't denying them their free education. Have some god damn personal pride and responsibility.
Cool. All the black people I know fleetingly "acknowledge" this as well and yet they spent all their time virtue signaling on Instagram about police brutality or complaining about white supremacist capitalism and then bragging about their upcoming diversity seminar at Goldman. How many times have I seen them trying to address their community's crime and delinquency problem? That's right, zero. Fuck these "activist" clowns. If a fraction of the time spent marching and making Instagram infographics was instead spent on keeping kids in school and passing out condoms so less single mother-raised wannabe gangsters are born, the black community would be better off than it is now. So even if you do know black people who want to sincerely address these problems, there's no denying that the media and the young black activists (the future of the community) are spending all their time complaining about the wrong things. I fucking wish that personal responsibility was promoted with the same force as "BLM" and "vote Blue for rEpArAtiONs" in the black community. Some of these people need it more than ever.
they need to pay cops way more in shitty neighborhoods. I mean, would you serve in the worst neighborhoods of detroit, st louis, chicago for $60k??? the juice isn't worth the squeeze in those situations and therefore you really lose out on quality candidates.
When are they going to start going after doctors? There have been countless studies indicating that medical malpractice is the third leading cause of death in America (source: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2018/02/22/medical-errors…).... with doctors often spending more than 10 years in school, it’s hard for me to really consider the whole “cops shouldn’t make mistakes, they need more training, more pay, etc. argument”. There are about ~1,000 deaths by cop each year (and the vast majority of those are by armed individuals) on a basis of 40M interactions, and 10M arrests. I could be wrong, but it seems like if we want to attack a group for having human error and the deaths of innocent people, we probably should be going after docs and not cops. Or we could just realize that it’s all a sham and that the media is using it to make money. And that they are doing a damned good job at it.
Out of those 1k deaths I am sure a considerable amount were due to resisting arrest.
Have you ever looked into the difficulty and evidence you need to win a malpractice case? It is very difficult and very expensive.
I have not, but I think you missed the point. Which is that there is outrage over ~1,000 deaths at the hands of police (not to minimize this) and not over the quarter million who are the victim (and arguable more innocent of victims) to medical error.
Hopefully, that can lead to reform. I'm all for police officers but when my high school fuck up looks at the police academy as a way out, I know we're not going anywhere. All the racist idiots I went to high school with all wanted to become cops and that's when I knew something was wrong. Tougher training and background checks might do the trick lmao
No doubt there needs to be more training, but every interaction I have had with an officer has been about mutual respect for each other. 9 out of 10 times these shootings happen when the person begins to resist arrest. Theres been virtually little to no situations where someone says "Yes sir, I abide by your commands" and then gets shot. Even Daunte Wright who accidentally got shot with a gun instead of tazer was resisting arrest. I mean the cops were arresting him and then he tried to push a cop and run away. Like seriously? WTF was this kid thinking. He thought he was going to run away and never deal with the cops again?
We've transitioned from "Simpsons did it" to "South Park did it" now and I don't know if I like it.
What this recent trial verdict has done is prove that mob violence and intimidation works. In a just trial, where the jury has not been fully sequestered, what Rep. Maxine Waters did the other day is tantamount to tainting a jury. What's that word we use to describe the use of intentional violence to achieve political aims?
Now any time cops are doing their job, despite there being immediate proof available, they're going to get run over with these race-baiting political narratives. They can have a prosecutor outright imply that everything presented by defense experts is false purely on their asserted ethical grounds. They can indirectly instruct the jury to believe their eyes rather than contemplate physical and chemical evidence. A judge can instruct a party not to discuss or imply a discovery not given the opposing side prior to court and the instructed party can immediately overstep said warning without any consequence. It will be interesting to see if/how this gets argued through the appeals process in a city different from Minneapolis without a directly "in the thick of it" trial proceeding.
Lebron James posted a supposed photo of the officer in this knife shooting event saying "You're next." This officer was doing their job, and performing the ultimate duty which the public expects - ending a life to save the life of a person under attack. And they're going to get hung out to dry next. And that will keep happening until there are cops who either decide it's not worth risking prison to actually arrest people breaking the law and decide to stop enforcing it, or just outright quit. And as declarations to defund the police grow, the training budgets will decrease, pay will decrease, quality officers will leave, and you'll be left with only people who care not at all about the job and are just doing it to get a paycheck. The kind of people who are just following orders. It's going to get a whole lot worse before this gets better.
White guys need to leave the urban police forces in mass. They’ve been fully put on notice, and I can’t feel bad for any who stick around and knowingly decide to play Russian roulette with their careers and lives by dealing with 85 IQ (on average) inner city savages day in and day out.
BLM has been promoting black cops for black neighborhoods, and I couldn’t agree more!
Read this a few months ago, pretty sad: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/08/10/the-cop
I love many of the ultra-low IQ hot takes on social media today from our more melanated countrymen and women. I think the best one I saw about how teens have been having knife fights for eons, so the cops shouldn’t be interfering. Lmao.
But hey, I guess kids will be kids. Literally a story from two days ago in the same state about one 13yo 13%er girl knifing and killing another 13yo girl...

Ah, yes, I remember my first teenage knife fight, don't you? Good times.
Fondly, quite fondly.
