"He was particularly offended by a scene showing a white officer in a patrol car running over a black homeless woman."
I'd like to see exactly what happened here. The statement suggests the police deliberately drove a patrol car over a woman. I doubt it. The mayor would be more than just "offended".
Watch the video on the link to answer your question. Looks like the "homeless" in question starts to get up and give the cop hell after she was "run over".
These guys are screwed. Most PC cop corps in the nation led by an affirmative action hire. All 20 will be thrown under the bus faster than you can say, "Boo!"
I've seen some of the videos today on TV...........to me, I think the Chief over-reacted. It was done in fun. The "running over of the homeless woman" was all staged (obviously). It was all fine. All about blowing off some steam.
I hope all Officers are reinstated and this all blows over.
My Grandpa (former SFPD) would have chuckled over all this hot air.
