We need to move Graceland out of Memphis and re-erect it somewhere in Florida, LOL.

Or....

Since they were in unmarked cars, not standard police uniforms, and did not calmly and professionally identify themselves the young man just had his car door yanked opened and was pulled out into the street by a bunch of criminals.

And no, yelling "police" is not properly identifying yourself.

I can yell "police"!

Doesn't make me one.

Those cop/thugs appear to have had ZERO training in how to handle a simple traffic stop. They screwed up at every step of this debacle.

They patrolled in groups and at times used low-level traffic stops as a way to find violent criminals, drugs or weapons, according to the department.

Because to hell with warrants, right.

It would be much more effective to shut down the affirmative action hiring program.

Based on my understanding...there is not one that matches up with what these cops were claiming for the stop.

There is no there, there. Tyre was stopped at a traffic light with his blinker on...
