Guilty by association. Fire them all.
These ARE COPS, as they've always been and always will be! How can anyone still be surprised by these sick stunts and texts? ALL cops are like this, it's in the training and the everyday duties, and it'll never stop! That's why so many people hate cops!
"Promise to hold accountable" Then fire them, anything less is saying its okay.
This is why the police are out of control
The Wire style
Defund welfare to prevent this
Not one belongs on the force.
So he murdered someone now he thinks he as rights
Crypto investing has brought me great success!!! Irrespective of the economic depression I can boast of over $12,000 every week on my investment. All thanks Mrs Angelia Marrie, thank you for your focus on quality stock/crypto , thank you for your focus on quality stock/crypto
I killed someone but I get no respect!
Great subcultural gang…. must be weird, this feeling, of brutality and being in a club. Like the Mafia, or Cartel Gangs, Like Wall Street, KKK,and many police departments…
When the people you are afraid of, are supposed to be your protectors….Time for Employee Turnover.. It probably would be good to arrange a new set of screenings….
– The color of your meat suit should NOT make you a target. Get Real It's 2023… The "Minorities" of today will be the Majority tomorrow.
– And that's OK. Let America Reach the fulfillment of it's chartered goal.
Racism and policing don't go together EVER!
"A majority minority community" 👌
Violence stems from corruption
It only gets worse
We can only be the individuals that we have chosen to become
Yeah, a listening session should fix everything. Good grief. Proven racists should not work in any law enforcement capacity anywhere. But, any found guilty here will likely just get bumped to the next town over because that is what the Blue Line Gang does for their bad members.
coming soon all across a merica, Cee Ville W ar 2.0
We all know about organised crime.
There's one greater and more dangerous, "Legalised Crime". Criminals with badges and in uniforms
Well, time to replace those body cams woth the police "situational awareness" recon drone. Able to hover above a scene, map the scene with lidar or echo mapping, audio and video record… and attach it to each cruiser, and make it deploy if anyone leaves the police vehicle.
police: we investigated ourselves, and found ourselves innocent.
