No, not really.
Leftists will just call those cops sell outs for even becoming cops to begin with..or they will say that they were forced to do this because the mean white cops made them do it
Black officer Goodsen was the driver, I believe, from reading the extensive info supplied in your link.
Yes, the street addresses have been redacted but not the towns where they live. Restating my sincere hope that their families have been relocated to anonymous locations.
Oh NO.....One of them looks to be a “White Hispanic”......
Those are our police officers.
Has anyone seen names to go with the pictures?
The point is not black vs white. It is black vs police.
That is the point that almost the entire media comes is missing.
No, not really.
On another thread I commented that they will take down innocent officers just to get to one person. I saw it happen in my own job (Corrections).
A white female Sergeant with 15 years of service, and a spotless record was fired because she happened to be sent to the box with a camera, so a photo could be taken of an inmate who claimed he'd been roughed up by the officers while being admitted to the box.
The inmate (black) had been transferred to our facility because he had been involved in a fracas at a neighboring facility. Three officers escorted him from the Administration building to the box in a van. Standard procedure was for the escorting officers to remain and assist with the admission, along with the officers who worked in the box.
Five officers and two Sergeants were brought up on charges that they beat the inmate up. The other Sergeant was a black male who was the supervising Sergeant of the box on that shift. The five officers were white males.
They were all suspended without pay, and the State dragged their feet to begin the hearings. All total, it took almost 9 months for the hearings to be completed. The female officer was the first one to have her hearing. She asked for, but was refused Union lawyer representation. Even though the inmate couldn't identify her as having been present at the time he claimed he was beaten, she was found guilty, and was terminated. All she did was take a camera to the box at the direction of the Watch Commander. After that, the remaining officers and one Sergeant were provided Union lawyers in their defense. Not one of them lost their jobs. In fact, the majority of them had their charges dismissed because the State couldn't prove the beating ever took place. They ended up having to cough up all the back pay that had been withheld while they were out on suspension. The black Sergeant lost his stripes, but not his job. In fact, he didn't lose his job because NY State claimed there weren't enough black officers in the department. And as a female officer myself, I can say honestly say that there were a hell of a lot more black Sergeants and officers in the department than white female Sergeants, and officers at that time.
I've never forgotten, nor forgiven what the State or the Union did to her.
Be mad at them because they are carrying out whitey’s will? Or sympathize that they are in such a plight?
No. Bad cops are not just white.
So wait...they are burning down Baltimore to protest black on black crime?
So what if it turns out that one of the black cops killed Gray because he was queer?
Then what happens?
The race of these six cops prove what I’ve been saying all along. This isn’t about white cops against blacks. It’s about ALL cops against the citizenry. I’d bet there are plenty of cases of whites getting beaten and even killed while in police custody but the press only covers the black victims.
It ruined quite a few Freepers’ race theories too.
Wow!!! Three of those white cops look black!!!
Not a complication in the least. “Uncle Toms” have always been more hated than whitey.
>> this does complicate things doesn’t it? <<
Don’t be naive. It’s just a bump in the road for the left. Their original narrative will remain, and they will soon have a grand theory to explain how the three “black” officers were actually carrying water for the white racists.
“Wow..this does complicate things doesn’t it? “
No. As one protestor said ... “They all blue”.
