Two Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station[W:263]

Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

Nobody, regardless of race, should be a cop any more. I advocate a massive walk out.

That's exactly I was thinking. A mass 'retirement' from Ferguson PD and city government, and then just let the place destroy itself. Eventually the malcontents would disperse.

Of it would turn into another Detroit, minority led city government, and all the problem that brings with it.

Eric Holder can add flame-fanning to his "legacy."

I agree.....Holder and Sharpton fanned the flames and Holder let it build up even more.
 
Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

This shooting is tragic, and it undermines the very real and legitimate concerns of Ferguson residents. But why should there be a walk out when all that's needed is to purge the racist elements of the department?

I see. Your preference is that the cops stay put and just become defenseless targets?

It tells me an idiot wanna be murderer is an idiot.

What you don't think those protesting and the town, knew the majority outside there were not Ferguson Cops?

What does it tell you besides the idiot who is using a Protest going on at 2 am in the morning?
 
Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

Mornin' Monte. :2wave: What is even more pathetic....both cops shot. Weren't even Ferguson Cops. Whats that tell ya?

Even if they had been Ferguson cops, it would still be wrong, I miss your point. Morning to you bud!
 
Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

Why not just purge all of the white police on the force, since it sounds like they're truly awful people. If it's a 100% black force, there won't be any racism, and the problems in that city should go away, since apparently the problems with crime in Ferguson are because of racism.

Replay Detroit PD, and all it's problems.

No, it really doesn't matter if a PD force is all white, or all black, or mixed. The problem is that the PD force faces crime, which happens to be committed by minority criminals.

Let's make Ferguson an experiment. Let's just pass a Ferguson only law where minority criminals aren't arrested or prosecuted. I'm sure that'll make them happy.

I think you're feeling the same irritation I am this morning. I respect that.

I have no idea what those people knew.

Good morning to you too MMC!

Maybe not a walkout, but at least in Ferguson, I wouldn't be in a hurry to respond to a call. Ferguson's population is well over 50% black. They are not the minority. It was the people that requested greater police presence due to crime. If more blacks are creating crimes in the area, somehow that equates to profiling and racist white cops. If I was a white cop in that area, I'd be putting in for a transfer.

Your sarcasm isn't helping here. The JD's report doesn't conclude that all white people on the force are racist. So why should well behaved white police have to lose their jobs for the few bad actors?

Because, you know, if they defend themselves, the cry will be "Did you really have to shoot him though? You could have used gentler methods."

I'm not being sarcastic. I'm being serious. If the white cops are so terrible, and the racism is so prevalent, then get rid of them. Move the white officers to another force. Then these problems which Holder and his DOJ identified will simply disappear. Unless the report can identify the individual ones, there is no other answer.
 
Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

I wouldnt blame the cops for not even going into those neighborhoods anymore. Leave the animals to themselves.

Agreed. Don't respond to any 911 calls in those neighborhoods. Tell them, "sorry, you don't want us here."

I didn't realize there was such a thing. My question is, why should anti cop douchebags get to expect anything from the cops?
 
Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

Is anyone surprised this happened? I'm not.

I see they're resigning in droves in Ferguson, from the Chief on down. Personally I can't understand why any white person would take a job as a cop there anymore. It's a poisonous atmosphere. Let them set up an all-black force and I'm sure their crime problems will simply disappear.

Holder. Unbelievable.

That was his goal. Everything is happening according to plan.
 
Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

And what's the clear indicator of the "racist element"? They're white, right? Why should anyone stay on that job when all they encounter is hate and accusations. Be interesting to see how people who see them as the thugs would fare.

Actually, the names and identities of those cops that sent the racist e-mails weren't made public, for obvious reasons. I have no idea of the skin color.

What about the purging the town of its racist elements.....and running out the Professional Protestors. Think that could help out to?
 
Re: 2 Officers Are Shot Outside Ferguson Police Station

Further proof that supporting Michael brown had nothing to do with evidence. It was about racism or cop hate. Being able to pull one over on the man.

So if Holder knows them all, he can demand that Ferguson get rid of them. Make them transfer to another PD. Then everything will be fine. No more racism in Ferguson from the cops I'm sure would result in far fewer blacks being arrested and also arrested with force. Because it's obvious that these things only happen because of these racist cops.

White cops on the force who haven't participated in racist behavior, and who treat all Ferguson residents with equal respect, have no worries.

I think Darren Wilson was one of those "well-behaved white" cops, before he shot that teenager who had his hands up and begged him not to shoot.

Well that's true.....I just thought most people can tell the difference in color uniforms.
