The officer involved in the fatal shooting of 19-year-old Christian Taylor has been terminated, Arlington Police Chief Will Johnson said Tuesday.

Johnson cited several examples of poor judgment in the incident as reasons for Officer Brad Miller’s termination. He said he made the decision after receiving a briefing from investigators Tuesday morning and the decision was his alone.

Wonder how many pieces of silver the chief got for this decision.

Who the hell wants to be a cop right now?

I only support “Body cameras” for cops after every single politician gets one 24/7. For all occasions

I’m still wondering why a 19 year old had a badge.

Office Brad Miller Thug

Please remember Brad Miller in your prayers. It's upstanding public servants of this type that keep America from becoming Zimbabwe. And prayers that Arlington, Texas doesn't ignite into another Ferguson with the gibsmedat crowd going on a rampage, as is their wont.

Watch the video and you'll be enraged even more. Not only are the blacks standing up for the thug, "Christian" Taylor but the Mexicans are joining the protest. That can be expected since they're united in their hatred for whitey. What's worse though are the whites supporting the feral. They're obviously leftists and don't realize that in a race war, their liberalism will mean nothing. Their hue is what counts. Just ask their commie hero Bernie Sanders about that.

To quote the wisdom of FReeper stalwart nathanbedford whose recent tagline read: All politics are ultimately racial. (Did I get that sort of right, NB?)

Do worries, FRiend. If I had a dime for every time I did the same, FReepathons would be over minutes after Jim starts one! :)

think that’s the point. Make the job too difficult to do and chase the good cops away, so nationalization of the police force becomes a necessity.

Dallas is becoming Houston. That’s not a good thing.

This Chief of Police is a left wing POS in my humble opinion. (I live north of Dallas so have some familiarity with the Dallas PD.)

Not up to speed on the facts of this case, but I believe that a motor vehicle can be used as a deadly weapon. Driving one into a building shows a willingness to use it that way.

Someone please edify me if I am missing something.

There may be some others, but you three are top-of-mind when I think of North Texas FReepers. I thought y’all would like to express the outrage that we’re feeling over this blatant injustice. This is the second time in a few months that a good guy in our area has lost his job because of the threat of ferals acting out. Along with Officer Brad Miller, we also recall Office Eric Casebolt of McKinney, another victim of the regime’s anti-white racism.

And Jade Helm still has at least a month left here in "hostile territory" as proclaimed by the criminal in the White Hut.

Dallas has long been a 'RAT cesspool. The city was in the grips of DemonRATs when JFK was shot...and before. And it now appears that Arlington is following Dallas' "lead" by acquiescing to Holder's people. The good parts of Texas are the far, far suburbs and the rural areas where Christian Conservatives reside. Anywhere in the state that's the least bit "urban" is now in the grips of blacks and illegals. Exhibit A is El Paso, over 80% Mexican and a crime-ridden third-world hellhole. Tain't the place that Marty Robbins sung about.

It is best to cooperate with police when they are pointing firearms at you. Chris was probably never taught that lesson. More bad parenting, ala Mike?

Sadly, you are correct. I live in one of those conservative burbs and have deep ties in the rural areas.

But to be blunt, Dallas proper sucks. And it is getting suckier. Sad to see.

Officer Casebolt overreacted quite a bit IMHO, per the video I saw. In isolation he might have been justified, but in the video there were several other officers at the scene and they were all giving him the “WTF are you doing” look. Should also be mentioned that he resigned and wasn’t fired.

However, from what I’ve seen, Officer Miller seems to have been justified in his shoot and the Arlington chief is being a PC idiot. This is also an argument for all cops having body cams running while they’re on duty for their own protection.

That's his "father" pictured above and I'll withhold further comment on his self-obvious arrogance.

Off topic of the thread, but why has there been no mention in any news about Jade Helm since it began?

Back to topic... What I read a day or two ago was that the senior training officer tasered the perp but he didn’t stop coming toward the PD, and that’s when the trainee shot him.

Ridiculous to fire the guy. Very wimpy of the Chief.

I think it's because the media is almost 100% in the hands of the hussein regime and his leftist sympathizers. As evidence, the murders in Chattanooga were done by a mooselimb. Yet the leftist lamestream drivebys kept reporting that it was a white man.

And getting back on topic, the shameful persecution of Office Brad Miller was orchestrated by leftwing media, notably the Dallas Morning News. There was no local newspaper reporting the facts of the incident in Arlington. Instead, newspapers and television ginned it all up with their lies to provoke the ferals.
