Wonder why cops are hated

Caine said:
All of those bolded statements are true.

However, what can a street cop in Virginia do about cops in LAPD and how their case is handled by the prosecutor there?

He can do just about as much as my black friend Jay here in my town can do about black people murdering other black people in Chicago.

And that is.... Jack ****.

I completely agree with you. So why are we at odds?

Hillary has invited Michael Browns mom , Eric Garners family to speak at the DNC ! The mothers of black Americans killed by police officers will feature prominently at the Democratic National Convention . I don't see any of the murdered police officers families invited WHY ?

Yep. The cops that shot up the wrong car must be Democrats. That explains everything.

Michael Brown was a thug , his mom could not handle him so he was sent to his grandmother to live , he was on video tossing the store clerk around after STEALING cigars , then decided to try to kill a police officer with his own gun . That who you want to honor ?

Democrats invite the mothers of 2 of the most famous thugs, shot while being thugs, to speak at the Dem Convention

That's nuts. Those cops needed to go a long time ago and, frankly, I thought they had.

-edit-

I thought this had been cleared a while ago and the memo actually came out at the end of January - http://documents.latimes.com/memorandum-dorner-related-officer-involved-shooting/

While the cops weren't prosecuted (an absolute travesty!) the women did collect a couple of million each.

If you happen to read the memo please note that all the stuff related to the cops that shot has been redacted. For those that like to pursue cover up conspiracies, this is a good one for you.

I don't recall reading about Michael Brown being in the car that was shot up. Are you sure you're not thinking about a totally different event?

Sure, the Clintons have a habit of shooting people out of fear and incompetence, "liberals", meaning anyone who disagrees with your point of view, are all stupid, and if only the cops didn't have unions to protect the incompetents, none of this would happen.

In this parallel universe, however, the one we refer to as the "real world", none of the above is even remotely true.

Where's Vince Foster?
 
Dittohead not! said:
Dead, isn't he? Do you think incompetent cops being protected by the union killed him?

I think the Clinton's had him killed because they had fear that he would expose their incompetence. Since the President is the Commander in Chief, I guess you could say the military killed him due to fear and incompetence.

Wow! Now, that's a wild theory. What do you have to back it up?

Well, if there is a threat, do the police defend themselves or defend other people? this would be like when you see a person going near houses and maybe looking like they are trying to get in, yes? why are they going door to door? this would mean they are looking for someone and they appear to be suspicious to the point of endangering the neighborhood.

No doubt the cops saw them in los angeles and supposed that there were more of them? often, you get women in gangs, but these mean more gangsters, of course. women are attracted to men in power, and men love it when the women come along, so, there was a subconscious undertone that there would be more in the back.

Then, we can blame the media. anyone that has watched dead presidents understands how quickly things go down? due to the media they were probably scared and thought that they would be bigger than hte imminent problem by accosting the van with bullets, yes? i mean, who knows what they were under the influence of?

Maggie... I have to know why you thanked this post because it makes practically no sense what so ever...
 
Patrickt said:
It's worked for decades for the Clintons. Yes, some cops are afraid and they shouldn't be cops. Some cops are incompetent and shouldn't be cops. But only a total fool or a liberal, I know that's redundant, would justify hatred for a group.

Keep in mind that the unions exist to protect the incompetent, the brutal, the lazy, and the corrupt police officers.

T-72 doesn't even pretend to be impartial. In his world, the government and authority are the only things capable of committing evil acts.

I have yet to see a bat**** conspiracy theory he hasn't agreed with.

That couldn't be; I go to the Partisan Hack meetings and he's never there.

I don't know the basis for the District Attorney's decision not to prosecute, but I do know a lot more went into it than the author of that article mentioned. The article struck me as anything but objective reporting.

No doubt more went into it, but was that really the best spin they could put on it? They couldn't come up with some, anything, more reasonable sounding?

If this was the best they could do, people have reason to be distrustful. Sorry, they didn't help themselves.

Sometimes I will like a post that I disagree with, but I find the post thoughtful and well-written.

Not saying that happened here, of course, but Maggie is a nice person. :)
