So the problem is the media?
As is everything associated with The Left.
FAKE NEWS has Real consequences?? Imagine that!!
-- Australian woman murdered by a Minneapolis policeman.
-- Couple killed during a HPD narcotics raid wasn't a lie.
-- Dallas police woman walking into the wrong apartment and killing the resident.
-- Waco DA dropping all charges related to the the Twin Peaks shootout.
Police actions are constantly under attack. By the left and the right.
Tough job.
I see this stuff as Either-Or.
You either support Law Enforcement or you support Thugs.
Note: Bad cops who beat people or unnecessarily shoot people (or dogs) should be handled by Law Enforcement. I support Law Enforcement.
How many inner-city neighborhoods REALLY want to come out in full and open support of Thugs?? According to the media, one would think that all Blacks prefer Thugs and the Thug Life. An amazingly racist viewpoint is being pushed by the Left. For myself, I think almost all Blacks support decent law enforcement every bit as much as I do. Why wouldn’t they?
“Australian woman murdered by a Minneapolis policeman.”
And the trial for murder has begun....issues with that?
Cops and Teachers.
Good ones are worth their weight in gold.
Problem is so many are terrible and have no business being in the business, AND the folks who are supposed GET RID of the bad actors don’t do it.
Not until the SHTF, then the endless blame game starts.
LEOs knows who the criminals are, they also know who the bad cops are.
Teachers know who the trouble making kids are, and who the bad teachers are.
A police force, or a police officer, is only as good as the worst cop they tolerate.
Anyone supporting the ‘thin blue line’ by not doing everything in their power to get rid of the bad cops deserves to be painted with the same brush.
I think there are a lot of mostly decent, hard working cops who damned well know who the bad apples are and don’t say or do anything.
So no, I don’t see this as an ‘either/or’. Both Thugs and cops who act like thugs deserve scorn.
I support *NO ONE* , nor any group of people, nor any organization, nor any movement blindly.
However, in many of these cases videos have turned up which refute the police story, and so had cast doubt on many of these claims.
Still police get away with outrageous behavior - the Dennis Shaver case was a travesty, and the fact that the cop was not charged was absurd. Tamar Rice, a kid playing with a toy gun.
Citizens shot defending themselves from another shooter: Emantic Bradford Jr., and Daylan McLee,
Never mind the “wrong house” raids that get citizens killed: Gerald Sykes, Jose Guerena, Richard “Gary” Black, and Ismael Lopez.
I have DOZENS of other cases where innocent citizens were killed by cops, and faced no consequences.
Absolutely, positively, 100%
“A police force, or a police officer, is only as good as the worst cop they tolerate.”
Says who? Commissioner Frank Reagan?
They’re certainly not doing themselves any favors
And the trial for murder has begun....issues with that?
The first issue is that the charge was for manslaughter and not murder. The other issue is that the "good cop" partner refused to cooperate with investigators, and was finally forced to testify under grand jury subpoena, thus delaying justice. The indictment was based on his forced testimony.
Good cops circle the wagons around the bad ones and obstruct on their behalf.
The very first line in your post is lie https://kstp.com/news/second-degree-murder-charge-officially-added-mohamed-noor-complaint/5175413/ so didn’t bother to fact check the rest because they are probably also fabrications.
You may want to do a bit of research before posting obviously erroneous information as it ultimately engenders people to disregard anything you have to say as well as makes you look like a fool.
You have updated information. It doesn't make me a liar.
The “updated information” was being charged with 2nd degree murder....he was charged with 3rd degree murder 7 months ago, hardly “updated info”
Lie or not , one shouldn’t post as fact what is clearly false.
This case has moved at a glacial pace so I've only checked in periodically.
Your "In Forum" history shows you're not a troll, so what gives? You're better than this.
Who or what are you defending by claiming I post lies and falsehoods?
Project much? Manslaughter + third degree MURDER 7 months ago which you conveniently neglected to include. Upgraded to Second degree MURDER recently.
First, coming from a log line of hard working underpaid, dedicated peace officers, I don’t like them disparaged willy nilly by so called arm chair sanctimonious know it all’s. Second, I don’t appreciate people who post comments that are commonly known and demonstrably false to rebut me and then try and spin there way out of it when caught as is so common on the left.
