There have been many instances over the past few years that have caused tensions and awareness to arise in the relations between police departments and minority communities all across the country.
We've all had our own experiences with police officers, some good and some bad, but I know the type of experience you will have when dealing with police officers is heavily determined by the location in which that experience occurs. So because of the concentration of crime in minority communities (mostly due to poverty), they will as a result have a vastly different experience with the police than say an affluent suburban community.
But I am making this post to get your opinion on the laughing and high fiving that police officers do after just doing their "job".
Do you not find this disturbing?
Help me to understand this.

Seriously? Are we disturbed by it? Help you understand it?Thishas you up all night contemplating your navel?
I couldn't even watch the entire thing, with that loopy narrator complaining about cops [gasp!] smiling. Is there anything else NY Resistance agitators can find to beech about?
If the cops get another gun out of the hands of a criminal, or a bunch of cocaine off the street, I have no problem with them celebrating. To me, this is something to celebrate about. Drugs ruin people's lives and the families associated. Celebrate knowing that the gun they removed from the street, could have been used to murder your son or daughter. So, yes I have no problem at all with cops celebrating an arrest because that arrest could have prevented a chain of events which seriously hurt lives. Also, a simple traffic stop never leads to an arrest unless you have a warrant or caused some other felonies in the process of the traffic stop.
So from what I gather, the system isn't broke. The majority are okay with the way things are. Forget the cause of the problem, just focus on the symptoms.

Nothing wrong with it, many people do a little celebrating after doing something. I do not see any issue. But I guess social justice warriors go looking for any little thing out there to be offended by, even cops high-fiving and laughing.
They deserve to celebrate a little for doing their jobs, why not? Maybe if you had a fullfilling job you would celebrate the little things also.

WTF are you talking about? every damn engagement we made everyone was in party mode after like we just won a game, but near the end of our deployments it was same ole routine unless something special happened. Hell, Youtube is full of videos of this.

Interesting.
I'll repost this.
Not one single thing about the simple solution, stop breaking the law? Is it really that difficult to do? Is it that difficult to not rob, assault, do drugs, etc? Millions of people do it, but it seems inner city black males between the ages of 16-25 seem to not be able to understand such concepts. There is no grand conspiracy theory out there to lock blacks up, in fact, most everyone would love it if blacks would stop committing so much crime.
Don't speed. Don't get tickets. Keep your noses clean. You won't have to worry about it.
Exactly. I wonder why they don't think about that.
