I’ve known several cops who burned out ... their actions were similar. Just a personal observation.

It’s obvious that he just lost it. He went into a rage. The other officers did not. He shouldn’t be a police officer, thats all. And once again, all police officers should realize that everything they do is being recorded.

It seems the objective is to destroy municipal police forces using the ferals as the tool to do the job. That way the new international U.N. police force with lots more toys and APCs can move in to support the NWO and take over....

Yep. I hope they continue to point out that 11 other officers did it exactly right.
Just like anything else. The majority does it right but one cop, who at the very least, is having some obvious anger management issues totally blows the good work and the goodwill that the others have earned.

Well said. You're absolutely right. To survive, local police agencies need to work harder to keep bad cops out. Btw, I think most bad cops are just afraid. . They don't escalate and de-escalate the use of force in a reasonable way.They skip steps, and that's a problem.

I see we have a couple of Trolls here.

If you look at the tape there were two THUGS coming from behind him

What started this

The people in the community called the police because Thugs came and TREPASSED and harassed property owners and their children.

You don't know what you're talking about!

Neither you nor anyone else has any idea what the other cops were doing! WHY ? Because you have only been shown one tiny bit of phone video and told. REPEATEDLY, that this is a "bad"/RACIST cop!

As former LEO I think you have a point. They may need to stop hiring gung ho types with split personalities that have anger management issues for starters. On the other hand people that haven’t been police officers don’t have a fundamental understanding of what they go through every day and the demands of the job don’t have proper understanding to make an informed opinion. They’re just reacting to what the MSM tells them is the truth.

You are correct! They need to get up to speed and see all the videos, not just 7 minutes of a 30 minute melee. Start here;

I think more of the focus should be on the 11 cops who got it right.
JMHO but they didn’t escalate and helped keep this incident from getting all the way out of control.
Sadly that’s been overlooked because of the video. Of course the video was going to be of the out of control cop because he was the one drawing attention to himself.

I wish the chief of police would have named the guys who got it right and talked more about that.

There is NO video of the other cops, so we do NOT know WHAT they did or didn’t do! Also, that tiny b it of video that everyone keeps showing came at the end of close to TWO HOURS of the now resigned officer trying to control that 130 strong MOB alone !

There’s a little bit of one cop right at the beginning. When the kids hand him a flashlight somebody dropped.

In any event it’s done now.
The chief of police said he was out of control. He praised the other 11 for being professional and getting it right.
Eric Casebolt has resigned and the whole affair seems to be over.
All that’s left is to see what, if anything< happens with the court.
Will Casebolt be indicted? Probably not.
Will the city have to pay out some Money to the girl? Probably.

The rest of it is finished.

It’s obnoxious to see how the media have completely distorted a story to the point of no recognition. The girl was given a lawful order to disperse, refused to do so, because she thought she had a right to trespass and use vulgar language in front of children. She then refused a lawful order to sit down, and chose to verbally and physically resist. The next step is physical force. Doesn’t matter if she’s a girl. If she’s hysterical and resisting commands, the cop was in the right. As for the gun thing, the twothugs were sshouting and charging on his blind side, closing in just a few feet. Totally justified, but I keep hearing him portrayed as pulling a gun for no reason!

The lie will live on and join a list of other lies that go on to infinity.

“the cop was in the right”

The McKinney chief of police disagrees with you.
He said Casebolt went in out of control. He did praise the other 11 officers for their professionalism.
He also laid some of the blame on the kids for their behavior.

McKinney isn’t Ferguson. It’s a pretty well off suburb of Dallas.
The girl who got pushed down lives in that subdivision.
It’s not the Hood and those kids aren’t gangstas.
There’s no rioting or looting going on and the matter’s closed.

The cop resigned as he should have.
Everybody is more or less satisfied.

The video evidence would disagree with the chief and media narrative.

I suspect the HOA will bring civil damages against the girl and her mother for running a commercial enterprise (promotion of future entrance charged events) on private property without HOA authorization. Also the mother/daughter’s promotion of “Make it Clap”, with that phrase being a vulgar sexual connotation, denotes a certain mindset in tune with urban black culture. Their ‘crew’(“Dime Piece Models”) includes females as young as 13. Classy bunch.....
