  4. so what they got fired
    theyll go down the street to the next dept

  5. Oh great … the officers can immediately apply and get hired at another police department or agency. How is that accountability?

  6. Saw a story where a man stood outside a Jewish facility shooting his gun in the air yelling free Palestine, Cops showed up arrested him, all this man did was Walk in his own front yard with his gun, didn't shoot one shot, and was basically killed on sight, I wander why? Oh that's Right 🥷🏿, end of story

  10. Until law enforcement fixes their problems, they will continue to self inflict their defunding by getting sued.

  11. cool cool cool, so when are the charges to be filed

  12. Nobody would have been fired if the guy had been white. Thats a fact.

  13. THATS WHAT WE CALL A MAG DUMP THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON FOR THIS KIND OF ACT TO BE HAPPENING TO A UNARMED CITIZEN

  14. Too many police are out for violence. Especially against black people. Training and screening for police is not adequate. They abuse their power.

  15. Common citizens go to prison. Police just get fired. Two Tier Justice System!

  16. Narcissistic JOE has got to GO!!!

  17. I dunno, I sure wouldn't want to be a Black man living in the state of Alabama.

  18. 😨😨😨😨☉☉☉😨😨😨😨😨
    82% of Americans supported Israel but did not support Hamas hostage deal as too many Hamas terrorists would be released and go back to terrorism. 79% supported President Trump and wanted him to be next President although Americans supported funding for Israel but did NOT support more money for Ukraine and thought EU should pay for the cost of war in Ukraine..Gallop polling..29 Nov 23…🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
