All that was completely necessary violence and police should feel proud their compatriot made it home nice and safe from that 9 year old.

What the gently caress is wrong with you? gently caress off with that glib poo poo.

That was a horrifying video. That cop is a loving idiot. Luckily in this case he is being fired and charged (aggravated battery, according to the news article).

Also, the judge already let the cop get away with it, so quit writing fanfic.

I was going by the article from the video, posted here:

https://thefreethoughtproject.com/shocking-video-shows-cop-try-to-kill-a-dog-shoot-9yo-girl-in-the-face-instead/

Literally sourced/linked from the video's description.

And that result is horrible. gently caress that Judge. The loving idiot had a kid as a backstop. And the dog wasn't even big and wasn't even charging him, not that it'd be justifiable even if it was (because the kid would still be behind the dog). I really hope they win the appeal, because gently caress that guy.

like I love the whole "all cops are covering for bad cops" meme like seriously try and make a cop choose between your career and his pension and see how that goes

it's pretty simple set the tone as to what kind of cop you are early and the bad cops, who are criminals, don't do stupid poo poo around you where you can report them


unfortunately, this just means they seek out other like minded cops and form weird cliques, takeover units (hello Baltimore) or just do criminal poo poo with one or two other cops they can trust

Like, four guys from Narcotics write a new warrant policy in 2003 and drop the amount of dog shootings by 97% and then push this attitude out to patrol resulting in four dog shootings in the entire city of NYC in 2018 but yeah changing police use of force from within is impossible

total number of all police shootings including ND and adversarial shootings drops from 106 to 35 in ten years in a city of 8 million people from 2009 to 2018 largely due to the cultural shift pushed by a bunch of tactical trainers none of whom are over the rank of sgt but yeah can't lead by example

So I don’t get what the point of this thread is if when every time Smiling Jack or Bored as gently caress respond to a post concerning obvious police misconduct, bad uses of force or their own opinions as to what parts of American policing are hosed and which are slightly less hosed, the usual response by many here is to treat them like they’re some avatar from officer.com or some thin blue line shitheads. I remember when GIP had actual no poo poo CHUD cops posting on the reg in here, and they’ve all moved on or been chased out for being lovely people. Is anyone actually learning anything here or is this just a chance to say gently caress you to a cop?

It's not always bad. I tossed out the idea of national police training to set standards and practices and you know actually provide decent training and it was hailed as a good idea. The main problem is you have 50 different states with 50 different standards and that's not even including the county and city guys. A lot of places have a pretty decent copper tradition of doing the right thing, some place have a lovely track record. LEO's are people and it's a poo poo job for the most part with no where near enough emphasis on training and mental health. You have a high turn over rate and in smaller departments that can't pay as much the poo poo heads generally stick around.

All that being said LEO's that circle jerk themselves over cop culture are generally toxic gently caress heads. Fortunately the CG rotates people through LEO billets fairly often so your preforming your duties in a different area every couple of years. That's not really doable for anyone but the state level guys and even then most people wouldn't sign up for that poo poo cause its rough on families. Honestly as far as the CG goes I'm a weird gently caress cause 80% of my career has been in Alaska but I also hate doing LE with a passion so I try to leave people alone as much as possible...except those fucks who dont put their kids in life jackets. I've pulled enough kids out that I will happily write people up for that poo poo until my hand starts bleeding.

they offer excuses for the inexcusable

Smiling jack refused to say that it’s a police officer’s duty to eliminate unnecessary risks when doing their job, which is pretty reckless.
