Keep trying, you’ll make it one of these times....LOL
Hell’s Angles need spelling lessons....Its late at night and I am slap happy...thanks for the chuckles..
I don’t respect cops for just that reason. They are either brownshirt wannabees or they are just plain stupid.
As I was watching this guy on the interview, when asked what he thought of the video, his response was enlightening, and I instantly thought, coward.
And I also think this rose to a level of felony assault not misdemeanor. He needs to be a convicted felon and forbidden from owning firearms for the rest of his natural life. He'll still be able to get on half the police departments in America with a misdemeanor.
Well, as I said, paraphrasing, "What S--t could possibly happen that exculpates the LEO?
A shoe bomb? :)
Tghe other cop came back to the cell to make sure the place was cleaned up and no evidence was there.
Your argument is pure BS. The cop is a punk and a coward and needs to be fired. Seattle is going to pay big time for this. The best thing the cop did is make her rich.
I’m with you. Maybe she’ll have some respect for the law, or at least decide it’s in her self interest to stay out of it’s way, if not actual RESPECT now.
Seattle won’t pay a dime.....show’s how closely you read the story.....it was a King County Deputy, who works for King County, which is not the City of Seattle.
West Virginia Man Charged with Assault after Farting on Officer; September 29, 2008
And your point is?
This is just another case of one asshole trumping up charges on another.
badge bunny S.O.P.
Well then the county pays.I can’t imagine beating a abusing this 15 year old girl. She put up her hands when the cop charged at her. There is no accuse for the treatment she got, arrested or not. Hope the beater cleans toilets the rest of his life, and I’m not anticop, just this cop.
At 15 I stood a foot taller then my mother but if I addressed an adult in the manner this teenager addresses this cop then the as* kicking mom would have given me would have made this incident look mild.Teenagers used to never even think of testing a cop like that.
Indeed.
And now I have a great grandson due in November.
sigh
He will be born into a country that has come unmoored from its legacy.
More likely she'll be rich, and contemptuous of LEOs.
OTOH, what you said could very well apply to these two officers, should the Federal proscutors bring criminal charges under TITLE 18:
§ 242. Deprivation of rights under color of law; and § 4. Misprision of felony.
I've included a link to the statutes, which are posted upthread. Notice that the penalties are quite severe!

Thanks for that post. At least a few are left who can understand. I don't like the incident occurring, but we have to return to a value system and respect for authority because God put authority there...even Obama (oooh, that hurt).
That is an unfair generalization. I know LEOs a personally and go to church with several who are very worthy of respect and do their jobs correctly. Not one of them would have treated the girl quite that way. However, she obviously needed some major correction of some kind which needed to involve at least spanking her behind soundly.
This isn’t about the girl.
This is about a police officer.
Two 200lb+ police officers have a 100lb female IN CUSTODY, IN A HOLDING CELL, READY TO CLOSE THE DOOR, then apparently ask the female to remover her shoes.
Yeah, she has problems of her own, including a bad attitude.
NO WAY, NO HOW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES are the actions of the 2 deputies warranted in this case. NO JUSTIFICATION for assaulting a female in that manner. NONE!
Officer #1 should never be allowed to be police officer again.
Officer #2 should be suspended for a few weeks for not stopping officer #1.
Intersting solution.
I think I’ll pass.
