Sad, just sad that it seemingly takes cities to burn before the obvious happens.
I said it before. If you sit there and let your fellow officer employ illegal methods to arrest someone, you're criminal responsible for not doing anything about it. A couple words..."Yo...Derek...maybe don't choke the older black man to death who's not fighting you in any way."
Cops aren't immune to the laws they enforce. Maybe this will open some fucking eyes.
Lol..... why not employ some of that cop logic to the nonsense you are spewing?
Again.... if you were in fact a cop you should realize why your comments are ridiculous.
The charges aren’t occurring now because cities are burning.
It’s because the investigation has to be completed. It’s because the facts have to substantiate the charges and reflect them properly.
When is it ever a good idea to lay charges too fast? If the investigation is rushed (for whatever purpose) mistakes are made and corners get cut.
Maybe the laying of charges helps to calm the outrage initially? But what happens when a case is lost on bullshit technicalities? Or with the wrong charges laid and the subsequent burden can’t be proven?
What then?
Let’s not forget that this is a situation where one agency is investigating another. Processes have to be followed in any case, but especially there. Not to mention the pressures to get things right because the fallout from getting it wrong will be far far worse than people being upset that they think things should happen faster.
You should have this figured out if you are who you claim you are.
You want a narrative to raise speculation and outrage that no one is talking about?
What do you think jury selection is going to look like? And as a result of this being so publicized and with so many emotionally charged and calling for the perpetrator’s heads without due process.... how many black people or people that will see the police from a potentially negative light or being heaven handed in some sense will actually make it through selection?
So then, from a conspiracy theory side of things? Who may be fuelling all the coverage and the activism?
But no one is talking about that are they?
Rushed investigations are rarely fruitful and those whom are involved can’t afford to make mistakes. And that’s not to say.... hey it’s ok take your sweet ass time. No there needs to be pressure but it can’t be rushed.
Again..... all points you should clearly understand if you were actually involved in law enforcement for a significant portion of your life.
