PSP Kills Man In Berks Co., PA with Bulldozer

[Sir Napsalot]

I like you too but please stop running from the police

That's all in the past my friend

I don’t hate cops generally. I respect the ones who know that they aren’t oppressors, but servants of the public; the ones who are in it to defend those who cannot do so for themselves. They need to stop industrializing criminal justice, with quotas, for-profit prisons, and unconstitutional and inhumane laws which literally turn people into stock units. Cops, being the ones with boots on the ground, have discretion. They can either be high speed medal chasers who end up getting both their comrades and innocent civilians killed in the pursuit of stifling freedom and perpetuating injustice and favor for the privileged, or true servants of the people, who uphold freedom and peace simultaneously.

Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage.

How to encourage the right kind of cop and weed out the wrong kind?

That's a tough question...

 

[ttystikk]

Cops dicks need sucked too, should not all dicks be treated equally?

You're an intolerant liberal.

You seem eager, go for it.

Make them do a drug test. Every day. For every civil servant.

Make them do a drug test. Every day. For every civil servant.

how much would they have to pay you to take a job with a daily drug test?....

 

[Jefferson1977]

perfect... lol....for liberty that is...

 

[Jefferson1977]

For some reason civil servants think they own the place and are exempt. Well news flash, you aint. And if you ain't what you gonna do about it? Do something? We been waiting for you to do something..

 

[Sir Napsalot]

I'd quit smoking pot for $100,000/month

I could do it for a month

At the moment there area really aren't any meaningful checks on police power.

 

[Jefferson1977]

Together we act as a check on police power.

 

[ttystikk]

Together we act as a check on police power.

Unfortunately, we don't.

American government hasn't been listening to We the People for a decade now, ever since the Citizens United decision that allows unlimited funds to flood our political system, funds that come from the ultra rich and not the likes of you and me.

Therefore we DON'T count. Or opinions DON'T matter. The whole reason for police militarization and unchecked brutality is precisely to keep the populace in its place; obedient and hard at work, creating more profits for those very elite even as we starve, sicken and die ever younger.

I don't believe running is a wise move, but never should it be an extrajudicial capital offense...ever...

Can't just let them run.

 

[Olive Drab Green]

I've run from the cops 3 times and gotten away every time

My stepdad did it once in a minivan with 4 kids in the back after Church one day. And 7-year-old me was one of them. We totally ditched the cop.

 

[Olive Drab Green]

Can't just let them run.

Can’t pursue them with a heavy vehicle you aren’t trained or authorized to use in a situation that guarantees the destruction of plants and wildlife as well as anyone they may not be able to spot. I personally blame the Game Warden, because he should have understood that the police commandeering his vehicle to drive into the woods would pose a problem for the job he was sworn to do. And, besides all that, just because he ran doesn’t mean his life is meaningless. This was entirely disproportionate.

I've run before and got caught , the cop let me off with a warning ...to be fair I am white

Never had to run. Usually getting high fived as I pass by.

If African Americans make up ~12% of the US population, Hispanics make up ~18%, but together they make up 60% of the prison population, and 84% of the prison population is for minor possession offenses alone, and we’ve found that both demographics use drugs at around relatively equal rates, I imagine that would have gone much differently if you were any shade darker than white.

His life is over because of a stupid decision he made. Had he not ran, the cops wouldn't have been chasing him, never would of met that game warden, never would of plowed his ass over. He choose to be chased.

Your ignorance is exactly why he’s dead. If people like you were less egotistical and more educated, we’d have had the laws changed after the Shafer Report was released, and his life would never have been compromised to begin with.
