He’s a Statist collecting his pay and accruing his outsized pension. If he ordered to open fire on “right wing” protesters...he will.

[LouAvul]

Isn’t this an FBI issue? Don’t they deal with corruption in local law enforcement? Or is that just when it’s 60s era civil righters getting beaten?

[KrisKrinkle]

Part of me wonders if the cops will stay out of it if our side is winning when the beating starts. I think I know the answer, part of me still wonders.

Blue Lives only matter when the cash and pensions are secure?

Beating the people Americans won’t beat

[SaveFerris]

Maybe one day when this officer is being beaten up by thugs, he will scream for help.

Perhaps passerby will respond “...and...?” and refer him to someone else.

As Lou stated, this is a statist who collects a check. They were paid to do nothing and nothing is what they intended to do.

Everything seems to be a corporation anymore where the paycheck will always rule. Especially in bad economic times.

This will not end well. /Captain Incredibly Obvious

I know in the Army ALL press inquiries have to go through our public affairs office, and if you violate this policy you are in deep kimchi— this is to ensure that the “official” answer gets spread, and not one person’s opinion that they will intentionally malign. Yes, they will ask 100 soldiers until one says something inflammatory, then report that as official policy. This is also to ensure information can get a security review to ensure that only elements authorized for public release are included. If the police have a similar policy (and unfortunately, with the Marxist press I can see why that might be necessary), then this might not be as unreasonable as it seems. The officers seemed pissed to me and not happy with the situation, and may be happy this situation is getting press. Just my 2 cents.

I knew aholes like this when I was in the Navy stationed in San Diego back in ‘73

[calenel]

He probably thought it was Trump supporters getting beaten.

[CivilWarBrewing]

HEY TRUMP/SESSIONS, WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THESE CORRUPT COPS?

Do something NOW before a few patriots are MURDERED by Antifa!

[rey]

SF is just as bad. Their hands are really tied. Most are like this guy, just doing their time to collect from the public trough. They really are just following orders types.

[Organic Panic]

Cops are NOT there to protect subjects. They are to protect the government.

[DesertRhino]

Sick bastard. And.... FU.

[Titus-Maximus]

This cop says “so what” to the very people who would save his life from these Occupy Wall Street anarchists, who, in broad daylight defecate on his cop car.

Stupid response.

[FreeReign]

At the being of the video, the cops were asked and answered clearly why they were standing back. He said, "go ask the police chief".

Folks here can trash the two cops, but they told you in no uncertain terms, on video, that their inaction was because of their boss, the Chief.

[Hugin]

AG Sessions should open an investigation of the BPD for violating the civil rights of pro-Trump citizens.

[TalBlack]

I cannot honestly say that I wouldn’t have decked him at that point.

[mywholebodyisaweapon]

Federal Civil Rights case - convict him of a felony like all the southern local officials in the 1960s that were targeted by the Johnson administration

Sessions should be all over this.
