“We can’t just terminate someone like other organizations. We have to operate by the law and our state police rules,” Davis told AP. “As a superintendent, I have to put my personal feelings aside. Our job is to operate under the color of the law.”
your officers can just terminate a man in the street during a routine traffic stop, by torturing him to death apparently
Look, I’m not defending the officers in any way, but firing them in a way that doesn’t follow law and policy just means they get rehired with backpay later. Off the top of my head, the old police commissioner Kathleen O’Toole fired an officer for blatant racial discrimination (stopped and arrested a black man who was walking down the street using a golf club as a cane and then grossly mistreated him), and even after a lawsuit where the police department was found liable for the officer’s actions, she was still given backpack and change to “retirement” instead of being fired after a lawsuit by the officers’ guild.
It does no good to fire them if it’s not done properly, but we should definitely work to change the system that makes it so difficult.
they should swing for murder… ignorant fucking animals all…

Oooh oooh oooh!!! I bet I can guess what color the law is!!!
We have had the internet for 30 years, and with it, the ability for common people to organize on a scale never before seen in civilization.
Yet, somehow, still, we stand idly by and let injustice prevail. All it takes is organization and bullets, people. We could easily make these authority figures fear the common man as much as they want us to fear them, but alas, America is a wasteland of cowards. Oh well. I guess we get what we deserve.
Bout to say color of the law must be pretty white for this asshat
It worked in Minneapolis.
it kinda worked in minneapolis. there was a lot of unnecessary destruction that affected hard working people. i would much rather see a tit-for-tat culture in response to police brutality. all we need for cops to respect citizenry is to have them fear retaliation from the public.
Indeed we do get what we deserve. The culture wars have proved to be quite successful, for those who want to keep all of the workers divided.

That’s because it doesn’t affect white ppl. If there’s one thing history has taught me about this country is if it doesn’t affect white ppl nothing will happen.
we need a new black panthers then. focus on solutions, not complaints.
What the fuuuuuuck
they’re not scared of us like they should be.
It’s because we’re not burning down enough police stations like in Minneapolis, when we strike back we need to attack less retail stores and more police stations, city halls, and other places to better focus our rage on.
the police are allowed to lie under oath because they need to be able to hurt people who didn’t do anything wrong
