I think it's now official. Freerepublic is a cop-hating forum.
Did you see the video? There's little to love about that behavior.
“I think it’s now official. Freerepublic is a cop-hating forum.”
Or maybe most of us are opposed abuse at the hands of our government?
Not so much as it is a forum critical of the excessive use of force against civilians by police. Police have a very difficult job but something like slamming a handcuffed woman to the ground seems fair to criticize.
I don't think the Founding Fathers would have construed the act of breathing while in the general vicinity of a cop as "resisting arrest".
Nor do I think that the Founding Fathers would have looked favorably on a standing paramilitary army, quartered on the taxpayers' dime (well, OK - millions of dollars).
Nor do I think that the Founding Fathers would have thought that having dozens of these tax leeches in every jurisdiction, being paid in a lot of cases $25, $30, $35, $40, $45, $50 or more an hour was a good expenditure of the taxpayers' money.
Oh, and let's not forget that the Founding Fathers would have taken a dim view of these taxeaters winning the Public Defined-Benefit Pension Lottery, on the back of the taxpayers who don't have such bright job prospects.
You left out racist, homophobic and misogynistic. /s
Personally, the video is more than I can handle, but maybe you'd be happier if they'd just shot her?
I didn’t have to go far to find the reflexive defense of police comment.
They are public servants. I for one don’t feel served when i see brutality like that.
I think it’s official. Jeff Chandler supports slamming handcuffed women to the ground.
