White people can post threads about cops shooting white people.
Again, what does race have to do with what posters can post. When someone ignores the race that has been killed more than any other, a red flag goes up. Quit defending bigotry. It's despicable.

Not implying anything. Stating the truth. That poster makes it about non whites being victims instead of all races.
to a point you are right. if the cops are there to arrest you, then best to let them, and fight it in court later on.
I wasnt going to say anything about this, but since Ive been seeing so many people give out that kind of advice, I felt compelled to say something..imo that is TERRIBLE advice. "just give in and OBEY" and then fight it later in court....really? LOL
'Just doing ones job' has never been a valid excuse.

Better than dying. Knowing your rights helps.
I hope you don't give up your life to stand up to a cop. If he's pointing a gun at you, please do as he says.
Thought this is an interesting case, and has more to do with true "police corruption" than some of the other questionable cases. It involves a situation where a man was assaulted by police when he demanded to see a warrant for his arrest, which the officers did not have.
I'm seeing that a warrant might have existed, but the officers did not have it in their possession when they approached the man.
Posting this because of...
A) Legal procedure. Shouldn't officers HAVE to have a warrant on them to arrest someone who isn't committing a crime, or for certain searches?
B) Was excessive forced used in this case? Any legal experts want to weigh in on officer's rights when they don't have a warrant?
Interesting case. There is video of the incident in the article. And it goes straight to our 4th amendment rights. Thoughts??
"A criminal justice expert says Avoyelles Parish law officers who wrestled a Marksville man off a tractor while serving an arrest warrant last year used too much force, needlessly escalating a confrontation that ended with the man's death. A second expert said he doesn't agree the officers used excessive force, but said they may have acted negligently by failing to administer aid once Armando Frank was unconscious.
A video recording of the arrest, obtained by The Advocate, shows officers growing frustrated with Frank, 44, after he refuses to step down from a tractor near a Walmart store along La. 1. A use-of-force expert who reviewed the 10-minute recording at the newspaper's request says the law officers escalated the exchange by placing Frank in a choke hold and attempting to yank him off the tractor."
If you are a sworn law enforcement officer attempting to arrest a veteran , and he or she ask to see theirs arrest warrant. Please for crying out loud show them the arrest warrant!!!
If they would've even attempted to produce the arrest warrant they would have known that no such arrest warrant existed.
I dont quite understand. Can you put that in context?
A low percentage of Americans are African Americans a must larger percentage are Caucasian American meaning that the vast majority of U.S.A. citizens are Caucasian American. Now i will let you take it from there.

lol You didn't explain what your post meant substance wise. It's better if you explain vs someone falsely testifying.

You're trolling at this point. Be gone. It's clear you don't care about this issue only your agenda. Don't want any trash in this thread.
