    But you're supposed to do what the police say man....Tyreek didn't really do anything wrong outside of the speeding, which I fail to see why that warranted the aggression he received. The cop didn't like his attitude so the aggression came. Tyreek was on his way to work, so in a way he was held up from doing his job too.

    Both situations, the cops got mad because neither did what they said when they said it. I guess they didn't move fast enough.

    I don't see what difference it makes whether one is doing the job or not. The police were wrong in both situations.

    Cops abuse power all the time, for a more clear example of how batguano crazy your perspective is, using your logic, someone stopped and ordered by a cop to "service" said cop should just comply.

    This is the reason i have been harping on about only complying with LAWFUL orders from the police.

    Lets say that your later contention that "its a few bad apples" okay, so look at it this way, in a police force of 10, if one is doing shady, unethical or outright illegal stuff, why is it that more often than not, the 9 "good" cops dont get him imprisoned or fired with no pension immediately instead of defending him? They fight tooth and nail to defend a scumbag, thats definitionally how "a few bad apples" .... "spoil the bunch" (to complete the aphorism)


    More directly applicable to this situation remember the george floyd case? The main officer there had a years long track record of complaints of excessive force and was the TRAINING officer for 3 others that day. So with his track record, he was not only never disciplined and had his behaviour modified, he was chosen to teach new officers how to be just as terrible as him.

    Well....here's the thing. The post you quoted, was a sarcastic post. That's actually not my logic. If you read everything I typed in thread, it's established I'm on the driver's side. I said in another post that the cops overstepped.

    Now as far as your point about the bad cops, I agree they should be ousted off the force. Why they don't come down harder on the scumbag cop, I'll never know. I think in only one video I've ever seem them condemn a cop's actions and that was the one where he let the dog go on already apprehended driver in Ohio.

    You don't know why they don't come down on their literal Brothers? Thin Blue line ring a bell. Fraternal order of Police. The Thin Blue line has become a gang sign. Even more so in the Los Angeles sheriff's departments where they're actually gangs.
