Cop in America doing a bad job, again
- Thread starter Sigma

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.
Never a bad time to revisit this…
Honestly he might need some street justice.
Americas most dangerous gang.
No words…
What's just as crazy as he may get to keep his job if he fights it:
"In the cases DeShaney vs. Winnebago and Town of Castle Rock vs. Gonzales, the supreme court has ruled that police agencies are not obligated to provide protection of citizens. In other words, police are well within their rights to pick and choose when to intervene to protect the lives and property of others — even when a threat is apparent."
So protection is a service of choice? Then can Americans choose not to be protected by police gangs and therefore not have to pay? Or will the judges be round to break your kneecaps?
Are there any other jobs where picking and choosing when to do the job doesn't get you fired?

Didn't we have someone going to lengths to defend this guy on here, inventing scenarios where maybe he wasn't such a scumbag after all?
This still isn't enough of a punishment, but just maybe it suggests that his actions weren't completely justified.

That's attempted murder at 16 seconds. Well, the entire thing, but that could have killed him all on its own.
He looks very approachable and friendly.
Quite intelligent too.

WV certainly isn’t covering itself in glory with these two recent specimens.
We've heard that "I was afraid you were going to shoot me, how did I know he had no gun" argument in here before.
No, it was a good slap. He was afraid for his life, he told us as much. Also, the home owner did not respect his authority.
I guess there's no way for us to know that the camera wasn't attached to the top of a gun like some kind of MacGyver scope.
Justified.
I just seen this today, with all the scrutiny on cops now, why do they still do this, disgusting
Fairly sure he slapped the phone, not its owner.
Would love to know the background to this. The details are intriguing. Something about interrupting a church service because of a traffic cone?!?
As far as I understand it, which is probably very little or not at all, slapping someone would actually be battery, while threats would be assault. Not sure what slapping the phone out of someone's hand would be, but probably something?
I’m compelled to make a terrible dad joke about how slapping a smartphone makes no difference to its battery.
Sorry.
It’s a curse really.
‘Try something…’
He's such a badass for doing that sideways gun thing. It's fitting he's modeling himself after literal thugs from the Sopranos.
fecking amateur. What an embarrassment. Should lose his badge for that alone.LARPing
or LAPDing
Unreal statistic about being prosecuted...

"May have had a vape pen", I guess we'll be seeing that argument in this thread in the future.
Understandable. The officer obviously feared for his life and lung cancer from second hand smoke is no joke. Good shoot in my book.
