Those 4 cops need to visit gym more often. It should not take more than 7 seconds to throw a resisting suspect on the ground by 2 cops. Or learn some judo.

So explain to me why the cop never took his knee off his neck for nearly 9 minutes when he kept complaining he can’t breathe? The cop was trying to make the suspect pass out? All for a $20 bill? I heard the bill turned out to be not counterfeit. But that is besides the point.

I certainly would be angry if my genuine $20 bill resulted in calling the police. I have lost count how many the corrupt cops in Chicago flagged me down because my job was deep inside the city, but I lived outside the city and did not need to buy a city sticker. Is that what we pay the cops for? To write more tickets for not displaying the city sticker. May be it was my brown skin which was enticing the cops to stop me.

It is even worse than that. I was given a ticket for going around a stopped bus, which I never did. The cop blatantly lied. Of course he was no match in traffic court for me with my master’s degree in engineering. I had diagrams to show the judge why the cop had made a error. The judge let me off without any fine and took the ticket off my record.

But I swear by the cops in conservative Dupage county where I lived for many years. I was never stopped for stupid reasons. Downers Grove cops were great. But point is there indeed are bad cops, especially in big cities.
