If he is guilty of murder fine, persecute the heck out of him. If not? well you'll persecute him anyway because he is a cop.

And people wonder why LEO's are snapping under this type pf public pressure and scrutiny.
How do you know the responding officer's partner on the scene is a liberal?

This is from a senior police officer that was on the scene and witnessed the account, this senior officer stated that he felt threatened in no way.

If I demand that an officer doesn't execute me because I'm lippy, then yeah label me a "liberal ACLU" type. Just to correct your brazen ignorance of what fascist is let me correct you.
It's the exact viewpoint you seem to be operating from.


fascist - 5 dictionary results
.
3.
a person who is dictatorial or has extreme right-wing views.
–adjective

Obviously you are woefully lack in understanding of the use of the term fascist in the context to which I used it. Its my opinion that the view point you express from the perspective of a LEO is about as likely as me being Barack Obama.

Your definition of fascist is embarrassing to say the least.

But I digress, you seem to be missing my point. It's apparent you think my post was directed at you and not the general sentiment of this LEO being guilty until proven innocent. I hope you are never arrested under that assumption and execution of sentence carried out before your day in court.

Is your problem that we have opinions on this guy? We're all suppose to lack any kind of opinion on something? He'll have his day in court.

No but your problem seems to be that I don't agree with your lynch mob.

Don't take it personally.

These are the unholy acts that require unions to be outlawed. What's next for you outlawing public defenders? Why stop there why not just do away with the 4th, 5th, 6th Amendments while we're at it.

You original intent constitutionalist never ****ing cease to amaze me!

The post on this thread are so beyond bizarre that instead of criticizing the actions of the officer, I have to spend my time defending those working to insure the officer a fair trial, something that one would think every rational American would give a damn about.

And, I feel like to smack some folk senseless who think that insuring someone's rights under the law deserves being smacked senseless.

Officers like this one deserves jail time and nothing less. There's no defense against his actions.

Prime example why I don't like unions. The union rep added nothing to the discussion and even went against the word of another officer to defend this criminal cop.

I also give a damn about trials that are fair to the victim, which seem to be absent whenever cops are the defendants.

And folks still wonder why some communities have a distinct distrust of guys in uniforms.

Probably one of the main reasons tons of crime go unreported - no one wants to bring the heat into the situation because the chances of getting maimed or killed goes up tenfold when you put a LEO in the mix.
