Hey if people are wrong no matter what they do their wrong - I just like to read all the facts before making any decision. Me being a cop has nothing to do with just standing up for cops,
if their wrong their wrong and that's all there is to it. I personally no matter what case now always like to hear both stories first. To me it just seems so reckless to arrest someone for NO reason I just needed more facts to make my judgement.
So are you not aware of the NYPD's history of shooting/abusing people for 0 reason? Are you doubling down on the idea that you, as Law Enforcement, have never heard anything about the NYPD's history of shooting and abusing people for no reason? To chime in that it sounds like bullshit? How are you not aware of the NYPD's history Christopher? How? Honestly, I'd really like you to explain how you're unware of the precedent NYPD has set, shooting and abusing people for 0 reason, in HD and on youtube. Hell, probably in VR by now.
You seem to always need facts, but you are ignoring all that is presented to give a speech about how you need more information before making a judgment. Your opinion can change, no one is making a record of what you say to hold you accountable later, especially not the police department. Reading the article, and knowing NYPD's history and litigation history, how can you come to any conclusion outside of "Jesus, the NYPD is fucking up again." based on the data you have that shows that the NYPD is consistently shooting/abusing people without cause or merit. I mentioned my dad earlier, as hes a judge/ret.detective LAPD. You know what he says when the NYPD fucks up? He says the NYPD is fucking up. As when its a recurring issue that tax payers are always on the hook for, problems are at multiple levels of the department, and yes, it tarnishes the entire pd. Same when LAPD fucked up with that Cow-Boy display over Christopher Dorner. Why does he have the capacity to understand that these departments are being ran into the ground by fuckups, but you have to wait for something to tell you that its not that way. Cops don't act alone, there is a whole support structure that has to support the behavior. Not just rogue apples.
You see officers standing by passively. Which is why people say fuck all of them, if the good ones can't even summon up the courage to do their job, there is no point. As the bad police work without punishment. These are the people you always cheerlead for, the good cops. What are they doing? Nothing, because we all know what happens when you whistle blow at the NYPD. You might not know, of course, but Officer Adrian Schoolcraft knows.
