I don’t consider you or the others passionately defending bad cops who did bad things only because the victim was a Mexican, to be FReepers.

There you go again with your baseless allegations.

“There you go again with your baseless allegations.”

Because every time it is pointed out that that all R&C knew at the time of the shooting is that the perp was a fleeing suspect who took them on a short high speed chase, R&C supporters come back with “They ONLY shot an Mexican illegal alien drug mule”.

Three things are absolutely paramount in their minds, that he was hispanic, that he was a Mexican illegal and that he was transporting marijuana, as if any of them, even IF known at the time of the shoot, justifies an LEO shooting to kill anyone.

Two out of three of those are positions based on racial bigotry, so I’m going with the odds. I will go further, if the perp was some white kid from the burbs trying to make a quick score and he was shot in the back while running away from the police, many of the same R&C supporters on these threads would be screaming about jackbooted government thugs
the way they scream the same about Sutton, the DHS and DOJ.

But that’s just my own personal conclusion.

There are at least a couple people on this thread who have argued that the Constitution does not apply to Mexicans. Bigoted? Maybe. Stupid? Certainly.
