It’s only some cops. Most cops are good.
That is the mantra we hear after every single police shooting of an unarmed black man and while that might be true, it’s becoming increasingly clear that all cops, if they stay silent, have at least some culpability in nationwide institutional racism. Unfortunately, they don’t see it that way.
The conservative Independent Journal released a video of police complaining about how bad things are for them right now. People are being mean to them. One black officer complained that people have called him the “n” word. Another complained that a defendant spit at him. Most just generally complained.
While one officer said that “99 percent of every cop out there doesn’t wake up saying, ‘I’m gonna beat someone’s brains in today’ or ‘I’m gonna abuse my authority today,'” he said nothing about the cops that just stand by and watch, or worse, cover up, when a fellow officer does that. More importantly, this video is not a story of police losing their freedom or even their lives because of anti-cop sentiment. If only the same could be said of so many innocent black men. As for policing being a dangerous job, it’s really not.
Watch it below:
says it all
No, not really. People like you refuse to believe the evidence when a cop’s actions are shown to be justified and is then exonerated. Case in point the Wilson Brown debacle. Any fair minded person would conclude that Wilson was justified in shooting Brown, yet just about every libturd I see is still calling this a “murder” and pointing to it as an example of a “bad cop getting away with murder.” Start believing the evidence when it’s clear and in front of your face, then maybe we can talk.
too bad so many videos have come out showing so many cops using deadly force on people handcuffed or cooperating, or how fun “rough rides” are when they break spines. so you can just stuff all your excuses for murder right back up your corn hole
oh and how funny is it that all those “justified” findings come from people who are either paid for by cops or friends of cops like crooked DA’s
Calm down there Conspiracy Brother. Like I said, you refuse to believe the evidence, buy only because you don’t want to. There is no evidence AT ALL to suggest that these findings were in any way suspect. You just don’t like what they found. It’s pathetic.
calm your self down. you are the one supporting terror in the streets dipso
neither Treyvon or Michael Brown deserved to die you fascist thug. and seeing how easy it is for thug cops to disable audio on their dash cams to hide the murders they commit you have nothing. Oh, the “nice” ones who turn it off to kill someone then magically it turns back on to show a planted gun, or SWAT teams who get an address in a deal to let some real criminal who gives them some random one so of course SWAT invades a random house and kills a grandmother in a chair watching TV. funny how all their cop buddies “cleared” them of any wrongdoing.
No it doesn’t say it all. It never acknowledged the other side of the coin.
If police didn’t ignore law-breaking by their colleagues,and reported it, maybe public would have more respect for them, but until they do, all police will be painted with the same brush.
Not of being “good cops”, but as bad cops.
Good cops need to show that they ARE good cops.
…by turning in their fellow officers when they do wrong! But no….there’s that pesky blue code of silence…screws them all!! so be it!
