Puff piece. Designed to get you to shed a tear or two.

That being true, did the cop go too far?

Yeah. He did.

Bad cop. No doughnut for you.

You know if the cop had been white, we’d all be accused of racism. I wonder what excuse they will use now.

I don’t know if it’s a puff piece or what it’s designed to do, but I can tell you as someone who lived in Broward County for more than 50 years that BSO deputies are perfect stereotypes of “pigs” especially the ones that “work” at the court house and the airport, and Sheriff Scott Israel is a failed LEO who caused Ft Lauderdale a record number a lawsuits based on his actions as a lowly beat cop. He’s also a Broward County RAT party hack.

I lived in Pembroke Pines for only 3 years and I wholeheartedly agree.

“Deputy Anthony Pulitano added in a supplemental report that Johnson asked Rios twice if she would walk on her own accord.”

She was given a choice. She chose wrong.

She chose wrong.

___________________________

Did she? I imagine having to walk in shackles is hard. And uncomfortable.

However, that’s a nice clean shiny floor. Looks easy to slide on. No effort on her part.

“Wheeeeeeeeeee-eeeeeee!”

I bet she had fun sliding down the hall.

(just one more way to spin what happened)

LOL... It is likely that I would have cracked jokes at her all the way.

If he was white, either it would be the end of his career or he’d wind up walking a cleanup beat at the dog park.

Looks to me like Rios is white and cop is black, so why not call racism. Far as I am concerned though, if she doesn’t walk, she gets drug. She was given a chance.

"Their hearts had grown cold."

Matthew 24:10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

I thought she was black too. And though she didn’t move fast, I think this cop moved too fast. She’s mentally ill, nothing wrong with giving her a minute or two or three.

I’m sorry she didn’t leap to her feet and go like she should have. But she’s a sick puppy and I think he jumped the gun.

So this Sheriff Israel is a democrat who really hates people. Funny thing about how many dems do hate people and scary that Satan also has big plans about what he is going to do to people when his time comes.
