yes, her and Derek Chauvin are in the crosshairs, but in many ways so are every cop in the country, especially those in big cities, they will not hesitate to charge a cop with the most severe crime possible...
Defunding the police is happening in slow motion
Tennessee v. Garner.
Helluva price to pay for being stylish.
If any cop does a lick of work for this point on, they are a moron.
Maybe he made it up so you’d be a better shot? :)
It appears to be many are felons who go for broke.
And I would argue that because of that ruling - crime stats, including MORE police shootings have increased.

Thugs today know they don’t have to comply.
Look at FBI stats. Our soft on crime policies have resulted in cities like Chicago, Minneapolis and Portland.
In California.
Mehserle testified and she will too.
We’re about to see a serious stand down by the police. I know I would.
Suggesting that could be seen as racis’ ya know. :-)
I could never be a cop cause I’m too hot headed. But I wouldn’t blame them. Thing is they’re paid to make arrests, close cases, or bring in revenue.
If current ones won’t, they’ll find even worse replacements that will.
Lame stream media-—”Ashli who?”
To me, it is pretty obvious that female cops generally (yeah like everything else there are exceptions which is why I say generally) present a greater risk of accidental shootings and unnecessary escalations of force. One reason for that is that they generally are at a greater risk of being physically overpowered by a violent criminal. Remember when cops’ first option for force was a billy club? A billy club won’t do much good for a lot of female cops. The escalation to shooting comes a lot faster. Well, I guess that is what society wants. (Put differently, bar bouncers aren’t allowed to shoot unruly patrons. Which is why you don’t see many tiny ones.) Ok, I realize posters will come out of the woodwork to tell of Broomhilda, their female friend or relative who could kick twenty guys’ butts at the same time. Whatever. My contention stands.
“Calvinball Law”
Yup... and its a right and an obligation to keep your street cred in that particular “culture”
If I were a cop there would be no more city revenue from BS traffic stops coming from me. I don’t know how any cops can bring themselves to do the work when they know that the whole political class will railroad them if anything out of the ordinary happens. At some point the hope of a future pension just aint worth the risk level.
Why? If you shot and killed somebody by accident, they’d prosecute you as well.
Why should incompetent LEO get a pass?
“Fleeing, armed perp with a record, and a warrant for his arrest”
Unarmed.
I said ‘dang’ more out of surprise, sorry I didn’t use another word. I didn’t realize before someone posted that this is basically how MN handles negligent homicide. Some places that’s a big of a lower crime than manslaughter.
