“If the perp(s) are black, it has to be hands off policing. Cops now know that even when faced with an out of control mob of black youts running amok, assaulting residents, destroying property, not following orders to disperse they now know to just stand down and let them have their space and give them more space to destroy just like Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake did during the riots in Baltimore.
The lesson learned and the problem solved is that no white nor any black cop is ever going to risk taking down a black perp, no matter what that perp, he or she has done because they dont want to, not only lose their job or be forced to resign under pressure, but also face a criminal or a civil rights prosecution for doing their jobs.”
Sorry but I think there’s going to be some middle ground between Hands Off and going full tilt out of control.
The argument that you can only do one extreme thing or the opposite extreme thing isn’t valid.
This was pretty simple. A party got out of control and the cops showed up and one cop got out of control.
It’s the cops job to be in control. Cops are held to a higher standard.
The party’s over the cop has resigned.
Problem solved.
And Tatiana and Grace and the other flash mob party crashers have learned there will be no repercussions for their criminal activities. Their problems are solved.
