I'll comment when the FACTS are in, including the un-edited CLEAR bodycam video.

In the meantime, I'll let the disgruntled traffic-ticket-pissed-off anti-police folks rant, here.

In my book, ILLEGALS and anchor babies do not have "Standing", as U.S. Citizens, and therefore don't exist. So that would make them enemy invaders......

The police are losing the support of folks on the left. That’s no surprise at all. Today’s leftists are nothing like the JFK Democrats of old. Today’s leftists want anarchy and then communism.

Here’s my concern. The police are also losing the support of folks on the right. We see that here on Free Republic. And not just with this article. We Freepers believe in the rule of law. One would expect us to be 100% pro-police. But we’re not. There are usually more FR posts questioning (or even denouncing) police behavior than supporting it.

Something is very, very wrong here. It’s a combination of the media slanting things and the police acting badly. Do not discount the latter. There are hundreds of videos of the police casually doing terrible things even when not under pressure.

Sorry for the rant. But there are bad times ahead for the country. The police and the conservative citizens need to trust each other. And that’s not the direction we’re going.

I bet you didn’t see any problem with the cops firing in the direction of the highway with bullets bouncing off the Jersey barrier. It’s all good gun control.

Surprised they didn’t shoot each other in this Mexican standoff.

When you joined up, you swore to defend the Constitution.
But obviously you never read it.
Some day, try this:

The 14th ammendment states “nor shall any State deprive ANY PERSON of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to ANY PERSON WITHIN ITS JURISDICTION the equal protection of the laws.

Being a merely a “person” means you have essential rights.
Being a “citizen” is not necessary.
