'Wanted' posters for NYPD cop who shot unarmed man appear in housing project
NY Daily News ^ | 11/23/2014 | TERENCE CULLEN, RICH SCHAPIRO

NYPD Officer Peter Liang is a wanted man.

A day after the rookie cop gunned down an unarmed man inside the Pink Houses, “Wanted” posters appeared in the Brooklyn housing project.

“This is the face of a killer,” one of the flyers reads.

The poster shows an image of an Asian officer — but it’s not Liang.

I read the poster. It is illiterate. The communists (ANSWER, CPU) are producing self-parodying posters.

There’s an increasing hostility towards law enforcement personnel, who don’t help themselves by gunning down unarmed men and dogs all across the nation.

Thia was literally a shot in the dark and I don’t think the cop, a rookie, even intended to shoot. It was a terrible accident. The guy who was killed had 24 arrests and had done jail time, but he wasn’t doing anything wrong at that point, and for some mysterious reason, his girlfriend was braiding his hair in the stairwell and they started down into the dark part when the cops were coming up.

I think the main thing is that the police need more weapons training. The cop shouldn’t have been carrying his weapon in such a way that it could have discharged before he had time to think about it, and in fact, it’s not even clear to me that he meant it to discharge but actually just had his finger on the trigger and was startled. So, yes, NYC should pay off the family...and give their young cops better training.

There are also a growing number of police. What happened to the small town with one Andy Taylor-like officer? Now small towns have their own SWAT teams. It’s completely ridiculous.

“towards law enforcement personnel”

When they were “Peace Officers” Citizens didn’t have these attitudes. But, since the transformation into fascism is near complete, the Citizens appear to be waking up.

Wrong Answer, They need to be HELD ACCOUNTABLE for their actions, just like WE THE PEOPLE most certainly would be.

I do not believe in “Special Rights” for ANYONE, we called that FASCIST when I was a Kid.

“It was a terrible accident. “

It wasn’t and “accident”. It was negligent homicide. Which is exactly what you’d be charged with had you done it.

Use Firefox with a script blocker and Ghostery. It’s about the only way that most newspaper sites are viewable.

Er, that’s negligent homicide. Accidental death. The cop wasn’t shooting at him and probably didn’t even mean to shoot. That’s why they need more training.

Have you ever been in one of these housing projects? I thought not.

Andy Taylor would have lasted about 3 seconds. The residents were actually the ones who wanted more police presence because they couldn’t even safely leave their apartments. The places are infested with criminals (the guy who got shot had 24 arrests, although he wasn’t doing anything wrong at the time), and also are poorly maintained.

The day after the shooting, NYC Housing Authority workers came and replaced the light bulbs in the stairways. The residents said the lights had been out for 3 weeks and the stairwell was pitch dark.

At least getting his hair braided seems to have been a relatively peaceful activity, although I did wonder why she was braiding his hair in a darkened stairwell. Not to mention how.

But the reporting was a little unclear, and perhaps they were on a lighted landing and for some reason started downstairs. I don’t know. Probably nobody knows.

The idiot cop who pulled the trigger needs prison time.

I just noticed this. How is it that all these inner city black kids, who usually carry illegal guns, are now often referred to as “unarmed” whenever a description is given?

Things that make you go, hmmmmm.
