Yeah, lets let everyone drive around stoned so they could run people over or crash into things. I'm sure the insurance companies will love that. It seems that you've smoked one too many.

Obviously, by all your anti-police posts, you've had one too many tickets or have been hauled off to jail more than once.

I have never had even a parking ticket never arrested .

I do know MANY police are racist and abuse their power.

Miami cops being KKKOW BOYS AND KKKOW GIRLS. White,Hispanic,Black makes no difference .

Miami Cops are becoming a militia that plaque the citizens . Its a shame the citizens here are so loyal to neocons in power .

No that happens in other cities but something like this only happens in Miami.

With the Miami militia aka police silencing basic freedoms .
I do blame the Cuban Neocon politicians who support this


YouTube - Miami Police Shot Protester, then laugh about it.


Yes Miami's finest at work . Keeping us "safe" from freedom of speech


Sad what type people they hire in Miami police because this I have never heard of happening other than Miami. .

Perhaps some of the looters were plain clothes and off duty police.

I agree with Miami Vice...I will not even take the time necessary to read Tall Rick's comments anymore.

That would suck only because so many off duty cops are such reckless drivers as they know they are above the law .

It would be a bad day to drive with so many off duty cops on the road.

So all police officers are the same. Considering the power that we have and the amount of police here, I'd say we're doing very well. You've got your opinion. It's really not worth my energy to argue with you, so I'll let you be the bitter person that you are. If things are so horrible here, you should consider leaving. Maybe you're one of the ones who think that things are someday going to change to YOUR liking. News flash....... It's not. You could ramble on now for as long as you like. Hate on.

For your information, the police also live here and lost their homes also. In a crisis like that one, the police are out-numbered by looting CIVILIANS 10,000 to 1. In addtion, life threatening calls and recovery were the priority. While everyone one else was dealing with their own problems, the police had to put their homes and families aside, and work 12-16 hours shifts trying to control the civilians.

No I am not leaving what I have done is simply inform people to do things like video the police at Walmart late at night buying tv,s ,etc while on duty in uniform in patrol cars .

Something I recently saw after coming back from the Gym at 3am .
ONLY in south Florida could you pull this .

Lets send them to FBI see what happens maybe something maybe nothing but its time to get active .

Its also time to vote out the Pro police right wing politicians.

I am doing what I can to end the Neocon strangle hold you KKKops and Politicians have on the people here.

Most here arent active lets hope things change I think they are .
The people here need to become more active realize who their enemy is .
Video everything police do and lets see what transpires.

Not just internal affairs contact FBI as Miami is way to corrupt.

The older pro KKKops Neocon Cubans need to open their eyes .

Yes I was appalled and just posted my pov on the other thread under Road Rage. I basically said the same thing. What about that poor lady and her kid in Dunbar Village. Had to walk a mile to a hospital and took months to get all the little creeps apprehended. I don't even think it's gone to trial yet.

And unfortunately it appear the victim (who doesn't really qualify as a "police officer" imo, ) WAS the aggressor if you read my post and watch the press conference. Alot of back pedaling by law enforcement and IMO, this old killer is going to have a very good shot at self defense or perception of self defense. Well, imo the daughter is actually the victim but that's another story...

So far the facts are that the victim followed the shooter into the parking lot according to the press conference where the press had to continually ask the cop who tried to tap dance around it until he admitted it but it took alot of him trying to word it all tricky in the beginning.

The hothead victim had his kid in the OFFICAL bureau vehicle, ON DUTY, and HE followed the old guy into the lot. Also the press conference cop tried to spin it as "well, it became a law enforcement matter since the shooter was driving erratically". yeah right, they made a big public deal and now are having to back pedal IMO.

See my post on the Road Rage thread for the links and details.
