Yes. I'm just asking because I'm not from the US and can't see her car.
Cop in America doing a bad job, again

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
But she's on a beach or something? Like, why would you breathalyse someone on a beach?
Yup it is bizarre. I'm sure there must be another side to the story, but whatever that may be, it certainly does not justify what the police officer did.
2018 incident...
Underage drinking probably. Lots of resorts in the US have a problem with kids getting drunk on the beach.
Mad, is there any police department in the US that allows their officers to punch a suspect whatever the circumstances? Okay, maybe if she was 200 pounds and fighting them but she was just resisting, trying not to allow them to cuff her.
That happens with sickening regularity. They just seem to go from zero to MMA in an instant.
So multiple acts of violence to aggressive actions now is it. You cops are something else
I thought every decision made by the cops up until the killing was reasonable.
He fancied her but is to old to pull her hair and run away. This is a fecking dumb wit way of telling her he liked her.
Pretty much if they chased him and apprehended him. But no, they shot him twice in the back. It's also mentioned here about the lying on police reports so I was pointing out the difference between "multiple acts of violence" and "aggressive actions" to one of our resident coppers. Language matters.
And this is the way it should have happened. At that point without his car, he was hardly going to cause any significant damage to anyone. Just call in some backup, apprehend him, and charge him for whatever additional crimes took place.
Instead we now have a dead man. The way that human life has been cheapened in the US sickens me to my core. The way people debate about whether the police officer was justified or not, we aren’t talking about some property damage here, a life was lost.
My bad.
I don't understand..... you're saying none of their actions were reasonable because of the outcome?
Have you viewed the videos that @Suedesi posted?
Interesting, it seems like cops are starting to feel persecuted right now. Due to the actions of a few... Hmm.
I'm here thinking... This is how it feels to be us. As a general sentiment, maybe, just maybe, proactively try and clean your house?
Still... Between not getting your McDonald's on time and being shot in the back? I know what I'd choose...

*Unsure if posted but definitely a good read
The police system is broken, defunding is a solid option.
If this is her reaction to bad service at a McDonalds then take away her badge & side-arm immediately.
She should go full Karen & just ask to speak to the manager.
Guess we’re in the age of the persecution olympics, bad service at a McDonalds doesn’t podium unfortunately.
She's having a crisis over having to wait for a fecking McDonalds? Oh well, at least she's alive to tell the tale.
The outrage at the treatment for being a a cop and feeling persecuted when they're been dishing it our for years with impunity. You have to laugh really.
We'll be seeing police strikes and marches next.
One of the tweets:
Like I said a few days ago, there are instances where cops let people go with just a warning or a fine, even when they blatantly break the law.
I don't know... Full Karen could end being "Shots fired!" Inevitably with a cafe poster claiming "good shoot"....
But of course...
It's what I meant by "depressing" when I noticed that all of the police that post in here would not concede that point. @choiboyx012's point about liability was fair but then that just highlights another area that needs to be looked at...
Choiboy was the only one who spoke with respect and patience, and I agree the liability aspect made sense if there's a way that the suspect could be traced back to the individual police officer's actions. However, that would require the police to do an objective & transparent investigation that holds their officers accountable, and admits liability on their part. I wouldn't hold my breath quite frankly.
But yeah, anyway all of this is depressing.
Oh. My. God.
I don’t know what’s worse, her losing her shit over her McMuffin taking a while in the breakfast rush or the number of people responding to the video treating her as a true victim and how the police need support.
She should not be allowed to carry a gun.
This brought back that horrible incident when the copper went in to the wrong apartment and she shot that guy for being an intruder.
Just reported on CNN a few moments ago...
Ah right, I forget that some times coming from a country where you can buy beer and wine at 16.
An adult can get in trouble for giving a minor alcohol. I'm not sure what happens if you give it to a 20 year old since a minor is normally under 18 but the drinking age is 21.
Here I think both the kid/parents and the place they've bought alcohol will be fined to various degrees if the kid is found to be underage.
Bars might get their license revoked (the age limit at bars is always 18, I might add).
The age limit in the US is ridiculous. Land of the free eh!
That's the first thing I thought.They can join the military or buy an AR-15 at Wal-mart though.
Good.
Good
And the 2nd Officer has agreed to be a state’s witness against him.
Good for him, expect he’ll get some shit for that from his colleagues.
That's pretty big isn't it?
