America has been exporting its killer cop culture for decades. And the Mounties were literally founded to murder natives.

The biggest difference between US and canadian cops is canadian cops have less expectation of being shot and react accordingly. They're not actually any better and the RCMP is loving trash.

What's the difference between 2nd degree and 3rd degree murder?

2nd is unpremeditated best of the moment, 3rd is felony murder or murder where you just had callous disregard and didn’t think “Imma kill this guy”

Some other countries do have laws like that. Like in Sweden, police have to abort car chases and such if it would significantly increase the risk of the driver killing himself or others. And they're not a serial killer or something, probably.

I don't know why America doesn't. Unless the answer is racism.

quote:

While national standards have largely sought to curtail the practice of high-speed chases, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) seems to be going in the other direction. It not only allows for the high-speed chases, but it also allows troopers to shoot at vehicles that are fleeing. While DPS policies limit gun use to situations in which the officer believes a suspect will cause harm, they claim the occasional use of firearms from a vehicle is still sometimes necessary.

And while many police agencies around the nation have limited chases to only the most dangerous criminals and crimes, in Texas, there is virtually no distinction made between offenders who flee, which means they chase petty criminals just as rigorously as they do criminals who pose a serious danger to society. Their rationale is that anyone who attempts to evade law enforcement has committed a felony and endangered the public, and should be pursued.

Is this the same loving idiot who got booed out of a protest he decided to try and speak to?

That was the mayor of Portland, aka the city where nothing happened but the white populace and white cops are warring

Nothing will change until they drag that Killology rear end in a top hat to The Hague for crimes against humanity. Him and every single academy official who signed off on its use in their respective curricula.

Dave Grossman is who you're thinking of.

One thing they really need to stop showing cops is the dashcam video of a traffic cop being killed in a stop. He pulls over a truck that was called in for acting extremely dangerous on the road, gives the driver all the chances, and ends up dying on his dashcam. The dude stopped was already known to have paranoid nervous breakdowns. His family had warned the cops about him. That wasn't relayed to the traffic cop. He expected to give a sobriety test or something and ended up getting murdered. The video is online, if you want to see it. It's not gory, but you get to hear the increasing panic in the traffic cop and his pleading after the dude shoots him, and you see the dude preparing for the execution.

I don't recommend it, it's horrible.

But that video gets shown regularly in training programs, and the lesson they use to teach it isn't "we need to prepare and train individual people for different situations and know all the details before we go in" it's "be prepared at any time for the one in ten million chance that the dude with the broken tail light might pull a gun out of his rear end and murder you."

If you needed to ask, the guy who cold-bloodedly executed the traffic cop was a bearded white man in camo.

What if instead he got death by suffocation, like George Floyd would have been sentenced to if the situation was reversed
