Tell me United States is Russia without telling me.
No…..redo the entire nation…. do every state ….the 50 needs to be purged of problem police period!!!!! End qualified immunity now!!!!
confederate klan constables……. on patrol and the tax payer pays for their bigotry!!!!no more!!!!!!!!! Resign!!!!!!!!
I am starting to think Iran and Russia are right about us.
This country is messed up.
Personally I see no problems or issues here. good men just dealing with our country's worthless P.O.S. is all
40% of law enforcement are at least moderately sociopathic
but maybe if we just give cops more guns and money they'll just turn nice? right?
At least they made use of a warehouse.
Could we all at least agree that this part should be defunded?
BRAVE unit …. these sounds like cowards.
Alright, that's it, I'm done with 🐷🐷🐷 😂

Technically it was a police facility, just an extention with less oversight.
The oversight is the issue of the situation, numerous cities have off site areas because of distance to the main department and Yes sometimes the off site is less formal so it can speed up a investigation process to determine if a individual needs further processing.
But the problem arises is when officers forget Professionalism and integrity then with the lack of oversight these things become a problem like with the incidents in the news story, probably a few bad characters causing issues for everyone.
This is insane!
Close that place down Yesterday!! Fire those that allowed these unlawful practices and those that KNEW about these events and didn’t report them!! All these people were Complicit against the citizens of Baton Rouge and violated their civil rights and protections!
#TroyLawranceJunior of Baton Rouge…will get his day and the rest of the Racist S.O.Bs of the Baton Rouge Slave Patrol Department.
i thought police were dictated by law to protect us
The USA is communist now, Biden is Communist.
And they have a black chief so they can pretend this behavior is not race-based.
Police don't stop crime or reduce crime. At BEST they show up AFTER the crime and take a report. It's rare they get to a crime in progress. If they do, it may not matter (Uvalde).

This is some sketchy $hit.
