baddog Posted January 5, 2017 Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 Funny how you never see the before and after video, just the slam. Go with it Remmus. You are obviously not a centrist. What happened just before the slam? Was it recorded and posted on social media? Of course not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvc184 Posted January 5, 2017 Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 Knowledge of what actually happened would be nice but I am assuming we should build the gallows after seeing a few seconds of video and having no other facts at hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remmus Posted January 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 The report is the cop had a body camera. The footage has not been released yet. My conspiracy theory is the longer it takes for the footage to come out, the worse it is for the police. If I were that young lady's father and the reports of witnesses are true ...I'd want to lay hands on that cop. I have a 12 year old daughter so it hit home for me. It sure looks like that cop could have collared that 100lb kid and marched her to the office. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short answer is no. I grew up in an affluent area (grades K-12) and attended excellent schools. Never had one bad experience with a police officer. Our local department was really good IMO and they visited the schools, little league and so on. Then through some bad decisions I found myself, wife, n baby in an apartment in d hood of Philly. I got another look at policing. Also the Rodney King thing popped off and all the stories from LA and I became more leary of cops honesty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenash Posted January 5, 2017 Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 Then let me make a guess regarding you and law enforcement. 1. You believe in the case of George ZImmerman that justice wasn't served. 2. You believe in the case of O.J. SImpson that justice was served. When you are policing in, as you call it, da hood, do you think/understand why a police officer has to be more circumspect and extra vigilant while on the job?

Remmus Posted January 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 Zimmerman should have kept his a** in the house n waited for the police. If Trayvon was breaking in, shoot em. Did Trayvon have the right to stand his ground? BTW, based on his parents young Trayvon wasn't a wasn't a wild Ninja. Just cuz you own a gun doesn't mean you get to play cop. Cops have one of the toughest jobs in our society. They aren't paid particularly well either but you don't get to body slam 12 year olds and kill at will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty Cobb Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 This is easy, #1 don't fight at school #2 obey the officers commands. Follow both #1 and #2 and you won't get slammed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenash Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 But Rem believes those rules don't apply to certain societal segments because of things that happened 50 to 100 years ago and that behavior is therefore "understandable" and should be looked upon differently than for other segments of society.

If it was in this area I can almost assure you that you will not see the footage because if it can be used in a criminal investigation, it is not public information. A department "may" release it at their discretion. Different states have freedom of information laws and what another state does depends on their laws.

Martin had no right to stand his ground if he was breaking the law as he was doing as he attacked Zimmerman. Who kills at will? Out of the 13 million arrests by the police each year, many against very violent criminals who many times resist arrest, how many are killed at will? What do you call "aren't paid particularly well"?

That dope came in 12 magical colors and tasted like skittles. Even if he was a drug dealer, Zimmerman doesn't get to play cop (we know he wanted that job badly). We don't give the death penalty to drug dealers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not so sure about the idea of doesn't get to play cop. I am not familiar with FL laws but in TX a citizen has the same authority (not right) to arrest for certain crimes. In that section of the law it is even mentioned in the same sentence. It doesn't say a cop can do this but a citizen can do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone confronts you with a gun while you're walking home from the corner store. You defend yourself and you're breaking the law? Sounds like some good ole back woods justice to me. To risk your life? ...put a dollar amount on that. Last time I checked cops were paid $40-50K? Maybe my idea of good pay is skewed by O&G salaries.
