recurring theme: police break the law to rip off the taxpayer for person gains, as well as falsifying police reports in order to stack cards against you, as well as committing perjury in court to get away with it.
Motorist caught in alleged HPD ticket-rigging scheme nd when HPD handed Jerry the ticket, there was a major red flag. "I immediately know that something's hinky with the ticket," Jerry said. That's because the ticket-writing officer listed another HPD officer as a witness. "There was no other officer, he was the only officer there," Jerry said. What he didn't know at the time, is what the I-Team has now uncovered through a paper trail of records--dozens of cases where HPD officers listed witnessing officers on tickets--who were never there. It was all to allegedly collect hefty overtime checks by later appearing in traffic court.. "Just to remind you just like any other citizen, they're innocent until proven guilty," said Ray Hunt, President of the Houston Police Officers' Union. Hunt said the Union is prepared to offer legal representation to Officers Gregory Rosa, Robert Manzanales and John Garcia. The three have been relieved of duty and reassigned to desk jobs while an internal affairs investigation proceeds. A fourth officer under investigation, Rudolph Farias, shot and killed himself Tuesday afternoon in a police parking garage near downtown. The I-Team found the alleged ticket-rigging scheme took place mostly on highways. In one case in May, Officer Manzalnaes put Officer Farias down as a witness at 11:24 p.m. at I-10 and Westcott Street. But at the same exact time, records show Farias was writing a ticket nine miles away at I-10 and Wilcrest. ... |

I just want to know who I'm talking to.

I must have skipped that post. Saw it on Facebook and thought it'd be appropriate here.
I will go sit in the box of shame now. |

Recurring theme: upset because a citizen beat you at a Police-sponsored doughnut eating contest? Arrest him.
Win in police doughnut-eating contest sparks U.S. man's arrest The sweet victory for a North Carolina man who beat police officers in a doughnut-eating contest this week soured after a newspaper story about the win led to his arrest on breaking and entering charges. Bradley Hardison, 24, of Elizabeth City downed eight doughnuts in two minutes during a contest Tuesday night at an anti-crime event hosted by the city's police department, according to a story in the Daily Advance. That report caught the eye of Camden County Sheriff's Lieutenant Max Robeson, who said his detectives had been trying to interview Hardison for about nine months after suspecting him in break-ins at two local businesses. Robeson said they brought Hardison in for questioning on Wednesday. "I said, 'Congratulations on your win last night,'" Robeson recalled, before arresting the man on criminal charges of breaking and entering and injury to real property. Hardison remained in jail on Friday, the sheriff's lieutenant said. Reuters Win in police doughnut-eating contest sparks U.S. man's arrest - Chicago Tribune |
^That's only slightly misleading.

I saw that story and loled. I didn't post it here (I dont think I did) because it doesn't really fit, but it is funny. It really deserves to be in the darwin award thread.
Also joe, in case you care, I agree with almost all of Bill O'Reilly's rant about the ferguson police on his talking points that other day, if that will give you a little more perspective on my perspective. |
I wonder how many people have watched the raw video of the recent shooting that everyone's all up in arms about?
This was taken just after the suspect had finished robbing the nearby convenience store for the second time that day. It's hard to make out the large knife that Powell has in his hand as he's approaching the officer on the left while shouting "Shoot me! Shoot me now, motherfuckers!" For reference: Suicide by cop is a suicide method in which a suicidal individual deliberately acts in a threatening way, provoking a lethal response from a law enforcement officer or other legitimately armed individual, such as being shot to death.[1] Sad to say, that really does appear to be all that's happened here.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_by_cop |
I think he was trying to mytar-by-cop to incite race riots.

On CNN especially what it seems to mean is censored. First they warn of something graphic then show pics or video that they have deleted taboo words or cut or blurred video or pics and does not give a reality view of what really happened. I have read and heard a lot of crap out of folks who think they be pretty smart with their opinions faulting the cops in that one. Both sides of issues are bleating about that as much distraction, in the news, from reality of racism. I'd expect that cop would have shot the fellow no matter what his color and whether or not the cop is racist at heart. Were that to have happened when there was not some Ferguson sort of event going on it may not even have made a small or no mention in any national news. Wanna take any bets that I post that opinion on newest submissions : Bad_Cop_No_Donut it would get "comment score below threshold" pretty quick? |

Joe you do realize that there have been 2 shooting's in Ferguson and that video is of the second one.
I'm specifically looking here at the Great Unwashed capitalizing on extant public outrage for the sole purpose, so far as I can tell, of making the situation even worse. Same goes for the rioters, looters, etc. The phrase "Martial Law" doesn't get exercised nearly enough these days... It's a concept which really ought to be explored in situations such as this. The suspension of habeas corpus would make really "cleaning up the streets" a whole lot easier and more efficient.

As far as I have seen there has been very little outrage over the second one, and most people think that one was justified.

Even assuming that half these deaths were homicides, policing would have a murder rate of 5.55 per 100,000, comparable to the average murder rate of U.S. cities: 5.6 per 100,000. It's more dangerous to live in Baltimore (35.01 murders per 100,000 residents) than to be a cop in 2014. This is not to say that police officers do not have a difficult job. They certainly do. They’re required to have daily contact with drunks, the mentally disabled, and criminal suspects. Arrests can often lead to physical confrontation, assault, and sometimes injury. Police are constantly dragged into families' and neighbors' petty squabbles. It can be a stressful and sometimes thankless task. But it just isn't unusually deadly or dangerous—and it’s safer today than ever before. The data do not justify the kinds of armor, weapons, insecurity, and paranoia being displayed by police across the country. Short of an outbreak of land-mine-related crimes in America's heartland, there's no reason to deploy mine-resistant vehicles and .50 caliber machine guns to rural sheriffs departments. |
recurring theme: using deadly force to project you from yourself
Man shot by Howard County, Md. police after stabbing self with knife | WJLA.com Howard County police said a man has died after officers - who found him in his bedroom with self-inflicted stab wounds - shot him after he confronted them with a knife. Police spokeswoman Mary Phelan said that officers were called to a home in the 7600 block of Coachlight Lane in Ellicott City Wednesday afternoon for a report of a possible suicide in progress. Phelan said two officers found 45-year-old Darren Friedman in a bedroom suffering from several serious, self-inflicted stab wounds. Phelan said when officers went into the room to help Friedman, he confronted them with a knife and both officers fired their weapons. Friedman was flown to a hospital where Phelan said he died; an autopsy will determine the cause of death. |

FL Cops Shoot At Man Carrying Unloaded Gun, Kill Innocent College Student With Stray Bullet - informationliberation Florida police responding to a report of a crazed lunatic with a gun outside an Orlando, Florida night club shot at the reportedly uncooperative gun-wielder, Kody Roach, 23, nine times. One of their bullets went astray and killed an innocent young woman inside the club, 22-year-old female college student Maria Fernanda Godinez of Coco Beach. Godinez was killed by the stray bullet, yet the suspect who was hit six times survived. Officer Eduardo Sanguino, who it's believed shot the bullets which killed Godinez, was given a paid vacation while police "investigate." They say so far there is no reason to believe the shooting was not "justified." Of course, all that's required for the shooting to be considered "justified" is the cop claiming he "feared for his life." |

Albany cop caught on video using Taser on kneeling suspect who was surrendering An Albany police officer, who shot and killed an undocumented immigrant four years ago, has been suspended and is facing dismissal after video captured him tasering a kneeling teen who was surrendering at the time of the incident. Sgt. Vincent P. Igoe, is under investigation by both local authorities and the FBI after he tasered 16-year-old Kelijah Fink following a high speed chase that authorities claim reached 110 miles per hour, according to CBS6 Albany. According to authorities, Igoe joined in the pursuit already in progress after officers spotted Fink driving with his headlights off. When police finally pulled Fink over after he struck several stop signs and a fence as he tried to out run them, Igoe allegedly approached the car and fired his Taser through a broken car window, but missed. After exiting the vehicle, Fink knelt on the ground with his hands behind his head. A police video camera captured footage of Igoe again firing his Taser at Fink, this time striking the teen, paralyzing him with a powerful electric shock.. Following a review of the tape, authorities suspended Igoe and have initiated termination proceedings. |
