Incredible! I was even more shocked that the third officer simply walked away. Glad to she was charged too.

For you it might be loss of vision and trauma. For her, it's just a Tuesday.
All cops are bastards.

I'm not psychic, but predict that the piece of shit will escape all consequences and spend the time between now and the hearing's resolution "on modified duties", aka dicking around the precinct doing fuck all. No charges, if laid, will stick. No conviction/no sentencing/no time served for that living garbage.

That's a bully that gets off torturing those who he sees as beneath him.
Fuck him

You can’t be an officer of the law AND show compassion. It’s literally an oxymoron, they cannot show empathy AND do their jobs- being responsive to people’s wants and needs is the antithesis of the position.

I once did a CPR and naloxone training for our state police officers that was held at the police academy where I live, and all of the new recruits in training that we would cross paths with would look down or otherwise avert their eyes and stop walking and stand with their backs against the wall until we passed, or if they held a door for us or we asked for directions and we said “thank you”, their responses were strictly “yes sir, no sir” or none at all.
It was creepy as hell and I finally asked someone affiliated with them why that was and they said it was part of their training to teach them not to engage with civilians in the normal way because when you do in the line of duty that’s when you lose control of the situation and potentially get distracted by someone and lose your focus on the entire situation which then makes you vulnerable.
So like during a traffic stop they keep it totally about the violation and avoid getting drawn into whatever story or drama that’s going on with the driver or other passengers. The secondary gain for them is that in general people just talk too goddamned much, and if, say, they do have something to hide they think they’re being clever by yammering on and on with whatever story they made up for this situation, or they’re high and just yammering. Meanwhile, the officer is oblivious to the blah blah but listening for contradictions and watching them for context clues like eye movement, dry mouth, etc, and looking for other things like expired insurance or liquor trash on the floor, stuff in the ashtray, etc, and the only questions they ask are designed to get the person who’s been detained to forfeit their rights, and most people don’t know that because they themselves don’t know what those rights are. It’s a very deliberate and exploitive practice. The best way to navigate these situations is not to really talk at all… “yes sir, no sir” and “I did not realize I was speeding.” Otherwise, don’t engage.
The other thing people don’t realize is that by talking and talking, at some point a standard stop, which is supposed to be over in about 10 to 15 minutes tops, becomes “consensual” and all bets are off after that. The key point to remember is not to verbally engage AT ALL after they hand you your license and insurance back. Don’t even try and be polite and say “thank you” or whatever because if they really want to search your car or otherwise fuck with you, they’ll pretend they didn’t hear what you said and when you repeat it the stop just became consensual.
Anyway, whatever the intent, the bottom line is that they are taught to dehumanize other people. And “Corrections Officers” are a whole lower level of shit that are taught right from the start that they are “waste management”, so to speak. They’re like the the quiet part about the cops that’s getting said out loud.
And then they cry about how no one respects them and that they are “targets”, and have created the whole “thin blue line” fantasy that they’re the only thing holding “it” back when THEY are, in fact, the “it.” Such a clever business model.

Fuckin' monsters. Look at 'em laugh at the agony they're inflicting on a CHILD.

This video only came to light because cops were sharing it with each other for laughs. For 4 fucking years before 1 person stood up to how evil this is.
If they treated this the same as the treat CP they’d look at every cop that watched and shared this without reporting it and charge them all.

Sadistic POS that’s all they ever are, the absolute bottom feeders of society that do things like that, I bet that every one of them has a domestic violence problem. ACAB

That's just dirty. Cops give cops a bad name!

If only cops stopped doing that! It's as if they are negatively selected into the profession.

I know you should dehumanize shitty people but the average pig makes it so hard not to. These assholes have up whatever minute crumb of humanity they had the second they picked up their badge

5 years 2019 seems about right for the wheels of Justice against the blue gang

u/GooseShartBombardier Sep 07 '24
The wheels of justice are impotent, they achieve nothing to protect civilians of the body politic. We need slabs and lead weights instead, hypothetically speaking of course.

u/NoClock228 Sep 08 '24
Nah hypothetically speaking it should be what the founding Father's did to politicians that fail us but compared to them ity hard how do you define failing us

u/GooseShartBombardier Sep 07 '24
This kind of shit is why so many people hate the pigs. Every single one of these MFers should be locked in stocks on public display, have ghost pepper puree injected into their sinuses, and left to rot in place. Sadistic degenerate scum, why couldn't more of them have died from COVID and put the rest of us out of their misery?

Places like this are not anymore about rehabilitation than the adult versions. If you have a child who makes an honest mistake, who isn’t a lost cause, who isn’t already a legitimate criminal and they have a “brush with the law” DON’T JUST AUTOMATICALLY SIDE WITH/BELIEVE THE COPS. Talk to your child, listen to your gut and if possible, keep em OUT OF THE SYSTEM or from that moment on, they very well could become that lost cause. Trust me.

Necessary reminder:
BadCops aren't human. Not because of their skin color, mythology of choice, political inclination, sexual orientation, nor patch of dirt they were born on, but by their actions (or lack of) and their intentions
