more brutal police killings

http://revcom.us/s/brutal-e.htm


check this out for now. Pretty much standard police procedure. Just happened to be exposed on tape.

I can't wait to see the police on here justifying these killings. This will be fun.

Actually I've run across thousands of cases of police brutality just run a google search

Here's some more police killings. There's a lot more than try over 40,000 babe.

And what these sources aren't credible because they're not CNN (censored news network) controlled by the Ministry of Propaganda.

If you're so smart coppers just look in your police car computers and run the dead people and you'll know. But of course you know it's true you're just not going to admit it on here because you're trying to run your propaganda on the internet.

Everything that I say can be verified.

The truth will set you free.

The police are just doing way too many killings out there.

And the public byes it.

Ooouuch, I think mr. police officers on here are getting a little angry at me. They might want to murder me now for exposing them.

Man what they'd do to me if I said this about them in person. Probably use the stun gun on me for hours.

Probably full rectal searches, flashlight therapy.

This is the Law Enforcement & police website so that is why I did a Murder by Police search on google.

I just want the public to know that these police are seriously dangerous. They can kill your family, wife, children, mother, father, anyone they please with no repercussions.

Police need to be held accountable for their actions just like anybody else. That's all I'm saying.

Police are really for the most part never held accountable for their actions.

What maybe a paid vacation for murder. I don't think so.

Answer 1

Okay, Dipsh*t (That's my nickname for you, since you change your screen name so much. Gotta keep track, after all.). Let's take this one bit at a time.

Link #1: Was the "brutality" you were referring to in that article the non-lethal tactics they used or the fact that they joked about it amongst themselves later? Since the article was about the joke (that he publicly apologized for) and not what actually occurred in the first place, it's kinda hard to tell if the officers were justified in using the rubber bullets. But even so, the article says that an independant review board was brought in to evaluate it. Sounds like a starting point. Willing to let us know what happened afterwards?

Link #2: This is actually a real story (when it's reported by the AP or Reuters, the article is more balanced). But you know what? When other officers and DA's found out about these two criminals (only two officers versus thousands of good ones in that big city), they immediately began pursuing charges against them, even to the point of going all the way to Las Vegas to get them back to New York to stand trial. Sounds like justice to me.

Link #3: A horribly biased, badly written piece of anti-government propaganda. If you look at the site it's on, you'll notice that it is the "voice of the Revolutionary Communist Party". Yeah, because I really want to take advice on how to run things from communist revolutionaries. Get real.

Link #4: See above note for Link #3. Same site, same ridiculous source.

How was that? Fun enough for you? Next!

EDIT:
Wow, more links. This one is for the "World Socialist Web". Again, not someone I'm gonna take advice from on running things. And that Google link, you think it might be a little biased by including "murder by police" in the search line and not something neutral like "shootings" or "deaths"? Better luck next time.

EDIT:
Upset? No. But I did chuckle a bit at that last one. You're funny. I wondered how long it would take to get you to mention your favorite "rectal exam" bit.

Answer 2

I think the police are well trained and generally know the difference between real life situations and television. In real life the police can't shoot you if you won't put your hands up - or even if you run - and it's the rare few who will beat you if you don't resist. Granted if you're caught after abusing a child (etc) all bets might be off, but otherwise cooperate and all should go smoothly. Plastic bullets would be deadly at close range, but not as effective as lead, so the police would be foolish to use them. Rather than worrying what bullets they use, worry about not doing something stupid that results in you getting shot or beaten up. The way to not get hurt is to not be stupid. That means be polite and cooperative. The time and place to challenge police behavior is later and to Internal Affairs. Approached that way, they aren't likely to give you reasin to have a legitimate complaint. BTW, Walker Texas Ranger kicks the crap out of everyone because Chuck Norris is a martial arts expert in real life and that's what the show is all about. If he were a real cop, he would be spending all his time with Internal Affairs and would quickly find himself out of a job with a dozen civil suits taking everything he ever owned. But it's a TV show, not reality.

Answer 3

I've never been brutalized by a police officer. There's a good chance I NEVER will. Why? Because I don't get involved in things which could get me in trouble with the law.

I'm sorry, but if you don't want to have run-ins with cops and don't want to get to know officers by name, STOP doing whatever you're doing, and STOP hanging out with the people who get into that kind of trouble.

It's real simple...obey the law, befriend a cop. Break the law, be hand cuffed by a cop. Simple.

Your question has gotten out of hand, and disrespects EVERY officer who's fallen in the line of duty.

[ADDED] I'd like to note that yes, cops sometimes DO exercise too much authority (there's a case up north in Portland concerning this very issue), and it's wrong. However, if the people who DO get into trouble wouldn't struggle, the cops wouldn't treat them nearly as harsh.

[ADDED] Alright, Officer RJ!

Answer 4

I have no idea if there's anything anyone can do because police can do pretty much whatever they want. I know of a few more stories where the police got out of hand, however, one of the guys didn't die... he's locked away from 30 years for "shooting at the cops" when he didn't even have a gun. The guy... well, we'll find out what happens to him as he's in the hospital. Cops get to gun happy...

Answer 5

So, you have 4 cases of police brutality! How many cases of brutality AGAINST police have you found in your resarch, or are you not interested. In the past 2 years, 6 police officers in my city alone have been hospitalized for serious assaults. Two more have died. And all these officers have been accused of brutality. One had to shoot a knife weilding man intent on killing his family who turned on the officer who responded and stabbed him. This officer spent 2 months in hospital, will never work a beat again, and was raked through the muck, then found innocent because it was obviously self defence. My daughter works in an emergency centre, and at least twice a week, cops show up for stitches or aids tests because some fool has assaulted them or bit them. And you wonder why they get violent? I wonder why it doesn't happen more often.

Answer 6

Agreed ,they should screen their employees better and get interpersonal relations training,their track records reviewed yearly. Delete that thin blue line separating us from them so we can get to know each other better. And if caught breaking the law they should be punished as we would instead of early retirement with a pension. At the same time I have met many great officers in my life time. Once as a teen I was hitch hiking home when a cruiser pulled up,the officer gave me bus fare and watched me till I boarded the bus. I never forgot that. We need them to serve and protect not swear at us and run our names just for doing our civic duty. Lots wrong but plenty still right.

Answer 7

no i think the police should be given free days every month to beat whomever they wish and hopefully they'd start with you!!!
"Good people sleep well in their beds at night as rough men stand at the ready to violence on their behalves" George Orwell.
The fact being it is a terrible world out there pal and violence is real and unpleasant. Instead of whining why dont you do somthing positive and join the police force and you can change it from the inside out....or is there a hidden agenda ????
This is an edit: Stop the press pal...i just read your other questions and you do nothing but hate on the po po . well f you @hole!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

Cops abuse their power, and the greatest stumbling block is the code of silence. They cover for each other, so Internal Affairs does nto have proof of the wrongdoing unless a bystander taped the abuse.

In my experience, most step off the high horses when they're too old to deal with complaints and show of forces in front of younger people, or are killed on the job by those they had fun arresting, and harassing.

Answer 9

Most Police are just guys that go through a three to six month training course. They are really not trained in having people skills, nor are they prepared properly to handle emotions. And there lie the problem. Don't blame the police, but the system that did not prepare them for their work.

Answer 10

I agree with you something needs to be done I would sugest writing to the commision and the cogressman. the attorney general see they are arresting people, They shot people foir making traffic stops or for putting hands in there pockets for no reason they don't have to have a reason to shot people. good luck let me know what happens
