Cop in America doing a bad job, again

Here we go again. . .



Apparently the man was walking on the wrong side of the street. Cops lied about the arrest & gave him multiple false charges.

This 2 days prior to the George Floyd lynching.


I know it's recommended you walk on the opposite side of the road facing traffic but I've never seen it enshrined in law anywhere, let alone have someone arrested for it (by four officers no less!). Chattanooga must be a quiet town.

Oh for feck's sake! :mad: Pigs!

Wonder if anyone will pop around to try to defend this? After all, we don’t have “the whole story”
 
Great to see two corrupt institutions (police & religion) helping themselves in a time of need.
I'm sorry, I'd like to understand how Religion comes into the story if you wouldn't mind taking the time to explain since I'm a bit of a technoidiot?

Apparently one of the properties involved is owned by a clergyman who works with children a lot, my dear oates.

Give it time. The regulars will be along in 3....2.....

And let's not forget these are just a few bad apples and most cops are hardworking stand-up guys.

Thanks my esteemed Dwazz. I suppose we could wait to see if anymore facts are forthcoming, in any case I'm not sure if a whole religion can be corrupt rather than a church itself for example or one member of the clergy of that church.
 


Excellent policing on display here yet again. Seems to be standard practice.

Indeed, we'd need to know more and from a source with a bit more reliability than Twitter.

That said there is some history of religious bodies protecting known offenders. Hope that's not the case here as the story sounds quite bad.

Yeah, cops around here killed a guy having a schizophrenic episode on the weekend. His family had called for help to de-escalate the situation.

Cops were seen hustling the adult inhabitants of the ‘sex house’ out a side door not in custody, but almost like a getaway after apparently doing nothing upon seeing evidence of blood on youth undergarments, etc.
 
America is one big horror movie.

The Republican Party are the most dangerous organisation in recorded history. I remember reading that in a Chomsky book with incredulity a few years back. Now, that sentence enters my mind every couple of days or so, and I concur more and more each time.

That so smacks of the ‘bad apple’ excuse for poor police behavior. The pedophile shoe does fit for major hierarchical religion.

Yes, there's no denying that I'm afraid.

I'm afraid you are off on a tangent not of my making sir.

No, it’s pretty accurate by your statement about religion & not accusing them due to the motives of a few. Sounds just like not accusing cops because of one or two bad apples.

* In one conversation caught between Moore and Piner, both can be heard using a racial slur against Black people multiple times, and Piner said a new civil war was needed to "wipe 'em off."
-- "Officer Piner then explained to Cpl. Moore that he felt society needed a civil war to 'wipe 'em off the f---ing map. That'll put 'em back four or five generations.' Cpl. Moore responded 'you're crazy,'" the report said. --
 
I was just listening to this podcast earlier. It kind of shows how difficult it might be to solve issues like those related to the police in the US. Although it isn't taking place over there. It's mostly about guy trying to change the work culture of the racist and sexist fire stations in Amsterdam. They do mention some similar instances from the US though.
It's a very interesting listen albeit, extremely disturbing as well, and that from a country I wouldn't normally think struggled with stuff like that.
 
Wasn’t sure where to put this as UN officials aren’t cops.
But they are officials and this chap is misbehaving, perhaps with a minor?

:lol: Hyperbole much?

If that's misbehaving, then I don't ever wanna behave. How do we know it's nothing harmless though? Assuming she's over 18 and wasn't kidnapped. Could be his wife, gf, mistress, local strumpet, etc just happy to see him.

What has lead you to believe it's a minor? Pretty big shout if it's from watching that 15 second video, in which you can see no distinguishing human features at all.

“Has there ever been an organisation in human history that is dedicated, with such commitment, to the destruction of organised human life on Earth?”

“Not that I’m aware of. Is the Republican organisation - I hesitate to call it a party - committed to that? Overwhelmingly. There isn’t even any question about it.”

We’re going to maximise the use of fossil fuels - could carry us past the tipping point. We’re not going to provide funding for - as committed in Paris, to developing countries that are trying to do something about the climate problems. We’re going to dismantle regulations that retard the impact, the devastating impact, of production of carbon dioxide and, in fact, other dangerous gases - methane, others."

In the context of climate change (not to mention the risk of nuclear warfare which at times has been averted only by sheer good fortune), is he wrong? It’s a lot harder to dispute than in it initially appears.
 
Discussing two Black fellow officers:


Gilmore advised he “saw a picture of Duane (Officer Daresse Johnson) down there sitting on his ass.”
A short time later Finer says he knew Michael Scott (Officer Michael Scott) was “bad news” and was a “piece of shit”. Piner then says “let’s see how his boys take care of him when shit gets rough, see if they don’t put a bullet in his head.”

Describing the arrest of a Black woman, and an appearance before a Black magistrate:


During that conversation Moore refers to the female he arrested as a “negro” and “n****r” on multiple occasions. He also described Magistrate Daniel, who is African American, as a “fecking negro magistrate”.
At one point, Moore states “she needed a bullet in her head right then and move on. Let’s move the body out of the way and keep going”.
Pinar responds ‘That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you.”

And in a section that’s rightly getting national attention, they discuss the widespread slaughter of Black people:


Piner tells Moore later in the conversation that he feels a civil war is coming and he is “ready”. Piner advised he is going to buy a new assault rifle in the next couple weeks. A short time later Officer Piner began to discuss society being close to “Marshall Law” and soon “we are just gonna go out and start slaughtering them fecking n*****s. I can’t wait! God I can’t wait” Moore responded that he would not do that. Piner stated “I’m mady.” Officer Piner then explained to Cpl. Moore that he felt society needed a civil war to “wipe `em off the fecking map. That’ll put ’em back about four or five generations.” Cpl. Moore responded “you’re crazy.” Recording was stopped a short time later.

Here we go again. . .



Apparently the man was walking on the wrong side of the street. Cops lied about the arrest & gave him multiple false charges.

This 2 days prior to the George Floyd lynching.

Has there been any follow up on this?

All 4 of them should be up on charges and every charge booked against PoC investigated as there's no way there shouldn't be suspicion of them trumping up charges and falsifying claims in the same manner they intended to do the man in the video. Absolute scum.

Did a quick google.

All 5 remain on the job & the police union representative says, “it wasn’t a beating, it was to try to get the compliance that was needed”.
