I read the article, and it quoted her as having said "oh yeah" when he declared a weapon, and I thought "yeah that's not great, but I kinda get it" because I assumed the context was that she assumed he meant it as a mild threat perhaps and was responding with "oh yeah?" the way one would when being insulted or threatened...
Then I watch the video, and that's not the case at all... The tone implies something much more along the lines of "yippee, you got a gun, now I get to develop a sudden fear for my life and do THIS!... Yeehaw!"
She ain't intimidated or threatened, she just mentally busted through a brick wall holding a pitcher in her hand looking to have a tropical punch party, that was a koolade man "OH YEAH!"
Y'all cops need to come to Jesus and establish some fucking standards and enforce them, because what you got going with the paid vacation and taxpayers funding their own restitution is not gonna be indefinitely sustainable. You're filling a keg full of powder and one of these evil motherfuckers you keep turning a blind eye to is gonna throw a spark in the wrong place at the wrong time, and not even the bomb squad in their full staypuft costume is gonna qualify for immunity from the explosion it causes.
I don't think we need to go down that road, but a lot of people do, and cops like Ms koolade here arent making the opinion shrink...
Jesus is part of the problem in that "culture"
Lol, "come to Jesus" is a very obscure (apologies for that) slang expression for "waking the fuck up to reality", usually with some tough love style assistance. No religious connotation whatsoever in the context I meant it.
Considering how many rapists and murders find Jesus, and reoffend, it's a bad analogy
It's not any kind of analogy, it's an expression... An idiom... A fucking locution... Any of those words help?
If the expression, as explained, were an analogy, it would imply that when people who believe in Jesus die and go to heaven, Jesus will chew their ass. Fuck, that's also an expression... I mean... Be angry... Get their face really close to your face and angrily yell words at you...
I don't think anyone who believes in Jesus thinks that's gonna be how the meeting goes.. it's more flowers, hugs, getting drunk as funk... Right?
Lol okay that was fun
If a rapist and murderer said they woke the fuck up, then reoffended. Does that means saying "wake the fuck up" will then be a bad analogy that shouldn't be used anymore?
I would consider that argument a logic fallacy.
Jesus doesn't make people better people. Wanting to be a better person makes people a better person.
The bitch just as likely goes to church as not.
It's just an expression :)
It means someone owes you an ass chewing kinda
My guess is she knew he was a felon before the stop. The "oh yea" feels like a cheer for "getting him." This whole thing feels like preexisting knowledge.
Like a habitual troublemaker that never really gets caught with anything solid, and firearm on parole is the long awaited "gotcha"?
I could see that being the reason for the exuberance actually. That's plausible. Could also explain the taser, frustrated with dealing with dudes shit for so long maybe...
You've added a shadow of a doubt I didn't have before. Good discourse :)
And that right there is why thugs with badges always get acquitted. A cop isn't a judge, jury, or executioner. I don't care what she thought she knew already, there is no excuse for this kind of violent assault against someone who still holds the legal presumption of innocence. She is a criminal and belongs behind bars.
Consider this situation:
She pulls over to
check on the disabled motoristsee what she can get out of the interaction. She runs his info and sees that he is a felon. This gets her going, as her racism had already decided that hersubjectvictim is guilty of possessing things he legally cannot posses: a gun and drugs. He was minding his own business. She targeted him and successfully used thelawcrooked set of rules that are meant to further dehumanize people that they deem to be beneath them.“Habitual” issues do nothing to provide context as to why she tased him when he was clearly complying with her disgusting abuse of power that we pay for.
It’s all rotten. Nothing short of radical sorts of change will stop these sorts of interactions and the events that lead up to them, which starts in childhood for the victims of the state.
Should the law, or anyone for that matter, think of you as guilty of something because of their negative bias about people who look or act like you?
