They had to know there was a camera and mic in that area and they still shot the poo poo because I'm sure they thought anything THEY said would be conveniently deleted before it was used against them in court.

They didn’t think anything they did was wrong. It simply did not occur to them.

Disabled or poor people aren’t people to them.

This is what bugged me a lot when the George Floyd protests were at their peaks and you had dozens of videos of cops doing horrific things to protestors. This is what they do KNOWING that they're in the spotlight, imagine what they'll do if they're not.

"Stupid question, but I gotta ask, did you read her Miranda?"

" Nope. I did not."

Edit: all of that because a 73 year old woman with dementia forgot to pay for $14 worth of stuff, and then gave it back. Because the police exist to protect capital, not people.

Loveland PD is going to end up with a Greatest Hits Anthology: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XkKgH3YLJE

Gotta love the bootlicking chud trying to help the cop.

The several Loveland PD officers on scene then began tossing ideas around for what crime they could claim they suspected Sowl of suspected of to justify their arrest and attack on him. Most of the officers remembered to mute their cameras for this part, but one did not. They then agreed that they would all say that they suspected that Mr. Sowl had committed felony Tampering with Physical Evidence offense... for having helped to lift the bike off the injured rider.

Nice to read about cops committing criminal conspiracy. Wonder how many will face consequences for this.

It was also recommended that he be suspended without pay, but they said "well since he's been suspended with pay until now, it would serve no additional purpose." I guess money isn't a thing anymore.

Cops are always trying to find new ways to kill people

https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/05/02/police-low-vaccination-rates-safety-concerns/

quote:

Police officers were among the first front-line workers to gain priority access to coronavirus vaccines. But their vaccination rates are lower than or about the same as those of the general public, according to data made available by some of the nation’s largest law enforcement agencies.
...
One solution is for departments to make vaccination compulsory, according to experts in bioethics and public health, just as some health-care settings and institutions of higher education have begun doing.

But department leaders and union officials said in interviews that such requirements could backfire or lead to lengthy litigation. Of more than 40 major metropolitan police departments contacted by The Post, none had made vaccination compulsory for employees.
...
Vaccine mandates are likely to pass legal muster, according to specialists in employment law, providing they adhere to guidance issued last year by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission outlining exceptions for disability and religious belief.
...
Smaller cities report even lower rates of police vaccination. Just 20 percent of officers in Mobile, Ala., have been vaccinated, said the city’s public safety director, Lawrence Battiste. Some may have gotten their shots without the help of the city, he said, and therefore have gone untracked. But many are young, he said, and think the vaccines may be linked to infertility, an idea spread on social media that experts say has no basis in fact.
...
Mandatory vaccination, especially for police, is politically charged. The dispute in Durham County gained notice in the right-wing media, where a Facebook page called “Thin Blue Line” posted a January article attacking the requirement as “communism” in a group with more than 73,000 members titled “We Support Our Police.”

I would not remotely doubt that unmasked cops shoving their faces into peoples' cars and screaming at them has resulted in a significant number of infections

And my balls shrivel thinking about what would happen if you told one to put on a mask and distance

End qualified immunity and force the unions to carry insurance on the cops for any wrongdoings. When the bad cops begin costing the union and therefore it's members their money, they'll stop protecting the bad apples real loving quick. You just have to hit them where it hurts. Their personal wallets.

I don’t see the unions doing anything except becoming outright lobbyists if you do anything against them legislatively.

That would be a tremendous blow to cops that are unionized. Tons of dead weight would be chopped and their benefits packages would be culled in the name of a balanced budget

vulnerability to civil suits would almost certainly lead to a massive upgrade in policy and performance across the US. Getting rid of QE is absolutely an excellent first step for reform.
