Question for you.

Putting aside the issue of whether or not this particular takedown was “excessive force” or not, to what standard of accountability should we hold these teenagers and their parents?

Do we no longer expect people to obey the lawful orders of the police to disperse? Do we excuse any incivility, any overt hostility and disrespect of authority? Is it now acceptable to resist arrest, or to attempt to interfere with the arrest of another person?

And what are we to make of the two men who moved aggressively toward the officer as he was handcuffing the girl? Is that now acceptable behavior?

Just curious.

Administrative leave is basically reassignment to a desk job. He’s still fully employed by the department, just reassigned to different tasks.

Suspension is a separation from the department — ie, a temporary firing that can be made permanent. Would be unpaid for the duration of the suspension.

Pretty big difference, IMHO.

It seems to be mostly a government union thing.

Every one of these stories has a Dorian Johnson. The Media will run and get their Dorian Johnson - and then stick with his/her story. They are not interested in what happened, but creating and driving Myths.

the bikini clad negress was resisting arrest.

the officer was attacked before he drew his gun

he was justified in all his action

black people both male and female must be subdued if they resist

Or potentially made worse through excessive use of force. As I said earlier none of the other police officers saw the need to body-slam 14 year old girls on the ground or draw their weapon on unarmed teens



The teens started yelling racial slurs at our neighbors and started assaulting people and property (throwing bottles at cars and attacking a mother at the pool with 3 young children).

poor misunderstood innocent teens...

There is going to be a public church service tonight for peace, understanding, blah blah blah.

Too many liberals are invading TX. This is just ridiculous.

Check out this twitter account and scroll down to June 6, tweets asking who is going to this twitter account’s pool party. And a picture of some of the gang that showed up, and they look exactly like the kids in the video that kept on telling the cop that they just got there and wanted to be let go. https://twitter.com/k1dmars

always collect the guns, ammo, water, etc and hide the bodies.

Sadly, no perps were dropped and assumed ambient temperature.

I can see you're crushed that the body count was zero.

And I'll repeat. The other police officers all managed to contain the situation and end the incident without abusing their authority or drawing their weapons. So were they the bad cops or the good cops?
