A 51-year-old woman shown in a video being repeatedly punched by a California Highway Patrol officer has reached a $1.5 million settlement with the law enforcement agency, its media relations office said.

The beating suffered by Marlene Pinnock, a great-grandmother, took place in July along the Santa Monica Freeway and was caught on tape by a passing motorist.

The cop agreed to resign and the lady gets a payout of 1.5 million.

In other words, the taxpayer is the only one penalized.

Actually - I was partially wrong - it meant that this woman and her daughter/granddaughter were likely GETTING PREGNANT at age 15 or so.

That was fun, but it still doesn’t explain why you support cops “every time,” as you said, even when they rape women for committing minor traffic infractions.

Whenever I hear that someone supports cops all the time, I remind them of the CHP officer who pulled women over on desert hwys, killed them, and buried them in the desert. Let’s start there and work our way back.

Am sorry you did not find your answer(s) in reading me. To understand you have to re-read. There is no point in repeating myself.

Don't know where you came up with that accusation. But if you could bring a quote, from me, to the thread where I said that in total, I'll request to be removed from the forum. If you cannot find a quote where am supporting Police even when they rape women for committing minor traffic infractions would you offer yourself for removal? Probably not ... but please have fun looking for that quote in total.

Sorry, I’m not very good at posting irrelevant videos like you do. I hope you don’t mind me posting a link to your actual post where you took the side of a cop over his rape victim who had allegedly committed a traffic infraction, and said you would side with the cop over such criminals every time.

My response is still in affect and thus far in reading your post at number #32 am seeing no proof of your accusation regarding your link to my post.

If you care to be nit-picky you are welcome to ask the moderator to remove me but see no proof of your accusation in your post at #32. Your decision on whether or not to ask the moderator to remove me.

Are you telling me you can’t find anything you’ve posted in the past day? Or are you saying you can’t read it?

What is this crap about wanting the moderator to zot you? If you don’t want to post here, just stop posting. If you want to be a drama queen about it, post an opus.

People that post have thoughts. I realize, as do you, all thoughts are not shared by everyone as being correct. Based upon the attacks and misrepresentation of fact by yourself and assorted others against me posting sometimes does become frustrating. I have to believe there are persons that would prefer I not express an opinion. Perhaps you are one that wants me to leave. I know the reason for receiving ‘flack’ is because I’m over the target. When receiving ‘flack’ one can choose to turn around and leave or one can continue to the target. This is not my site. I do not desire to reshape destiny for Jim’s site. Calling me names means you do not desire for me to continue to post ... so why not do me a favor and yourself a favor and just go your own way. I’ll go mine and since today is another day, may we, both, have a Good Day and really ... Why should this be about us? That is not the purpose of this site that belongs to Jim.

Get a grip. I haven’t called you names or told you to leave. I merely objected to your support of cops raping women for minor traffic infractions. I would object to that even if other FReepers didn’t. The more you dig in your heals in support of such behavior, and the more you make excuses for them, the more I realize my initial assessment of your comments was spot on.

I don’t care if you continue to post here, or if you choose to ride the lightning.

your support of cops raping women for minor traffic infractions

above
A false allegation by you. You have been unable to prove your allegation yet you persist in repeating your false allegation. What is your purpose of persisting with your false allegation?

I didn’t realize your fragile state. I took a look at some of your other posts, and now realize that I shouldn’t press you to face reality or to defend the things you’ve said. If you want to believe that every cop is always good and everything they do is always right, every time, I’ll try and remember not to present you with a sane alternative. If you want to believe that cops who do things that even you can’t justify were therefor never cops in the first place (the “true Scotsman” fallacy), then you go right ahead. And if you want to post such nonsense here, I’ll try not to upset you with an opposing view. Have a nice day, and try to get some rest.

LOL ... wow ... Looks like you are a democrat. Typical rhetoric has made it all clear. Do you work for a news network, a democrat congresscritter or are you simply an average democrat? I definitely do not expect an answer to my question since you didn’t answer my question on why you persisted in making false accusations. Anyway, Good Day!
