You, banned site, any alternative?
Yeah wasn't that the same thing the guy with his family leaving a movie theater said before the cops murdered him in similar fashion?I'm not going to PM you, sorry, I prefer to thrash out a problem in plain view. I am going to say that you seem to be taking a weird position. Everyone in the universe agrees that sometimes force needs to be used. But everyone with a modicum of intelligence should see that there are safe ways to do that and unsafe ways to do that. All you have been repeating are semi contradictory statements saying 'force must be used' and 'these police should be punished'. You haven't agreed (as far as I have seen) that some techniques are unsafe and should not be used regardless. I have not seen you acknowledge there are very effective techniques which pose much less risk of harm to the person being subdued.
If that is not correct, apologies.
Ugh.
No id doesn't you ignorant fucks. It means he is exhaling.
NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio and Police Commissioner Bill Bratton hold press conference on the incident:
http://7online.com/news/mayor-hold-press-conference-on-staten-island-mans-death/199186/
I want to note something that is true every day in New York City--the men and women of the NYPD are handed an enormous responsibility. The responsibility of keeping us safe, but also the responsibility of making very difficult, split-second decisions in trying circumstances. It is too early to jump to any conclusions about this case--we must wait for all the facts and details of the incident to emerge. But I assure all New Yorkers, there will be a full and thorough investigation.
So de Blasio starts out with sympathy and condolences, only to then turn and spend most of his speaking time defending the NYPD starting with this gem:
What fucking hold do cops have on these politicians? A man just got murdered for no reason and the Mayor feels the need to remind us of the commonly used bullshit propaganda line, 'cops have to make split-second decisions'? It's neither the fucking time nor the place for this tired garbage. It's totally inappropriate to take a moment to praise an organization the day after a bunch of their members killed someone in cold blood. The disconnection to the community - and basic human decency - is just shocking.
I'm not familiar with the NYPD union but I would imagine they hold a lot of sway and power. This disgraceful bullshit is pretty much the heart of politics...don't piss off the wrong people, especially those who could threaten your reelection bidWhat fucking hold do cops have on these politicians?

I just heard on the news that these guys punishment is to be sent back to training as the choke hold is banned.
You have to understand, cops exist to "serve and protect" the ruling class, not the peasants. Cops are not only the control mechanism between the ruling class and the peasant class, but also the protective buffer.
The politicians, as corrupt and lawless as they are nowadays, know their safety depends on fanatical, militarized police forces protecting them from the teeming, still-armed unwashed masses. That's why politicians make excuses for the cops, and pretend not to see how police forces are being converted into domestic armies of occupation who see the American people as the enemy.They actually want it this way.
None of it is an accident or oversight.
The cops don't have any hold on the politicians. The politicians hate brown people too. They just work together on this shit.
not just brown people there plenty of whites that have been fucked up by the police.

Please, we all know that minorties have it difficult, but that doesn't mean that white people have some ultimate immunity. If you think that, you're disrespectful against all the white people who were victim of similiar things. There is more than skincolor that can give you problems.

Just think homosexuality. You think there is no predjustice against white homosexuals? Please don't give me that "LOL". Take it and tell it the LGBT-community in the face.

It's another bullshit me too argument. The question isn't whether or not white people have been targeted, but why are minorities being targeted at a disproportionate rate. Simply saying me too is a nice convenient way to sweep issues like this under the rug. Also, it's hilarious that you somehow tried to turn this into a gay rights issue. It has absolutely nothing to do with what we are talking about now, and it's again another form of the argument me too. You do know that being gay isn't a white exclusive thing right?
The police is underpowered in Europe and overpowered in the US, so which system is better/ morr effective in fighting crime?
After watching the video in the OP and reading the replies in the PoliceOne forum, this video flashed through my mind:
Cop Killer
holy fuck at the responses on that forum.
The officer did what he had to do to get this fat fuck to the ground. I'd like to see the mayor, police commissioner, and community activists handle this situation.....maybe with some kind words or verbal judo. Good luck officers......you're already being thrown under the bus!!
Here's the video after he was murdered. At around the 5:30 mark you see these "good" cops laughing.

DiBlasio is an unbelievable shit head. How is a "choke hold" a split second decision? You hold chokes down for minutes, which is how someone dies from one. You have 4, 5, 6 officers on ONE guy...you don't think "it's okay, I can let go now, he's out numbered".
My NYPD friends (retired and approaching) have been calling it for the past year, with DiBlasio crime in NYC and NYPD incidents will only increase (and it has dramatically spiked over the past 3 months year over year, especially gun violence). He doesn't care about actually protecting people, he used all of that shit as a ploy to win the election.

Excellent post. The Mayor actually says, in regards to his promise to reduce police brutality, "conditions have improved on the ground". That phrase stuck out to me, because I have only heard it used in reference to countries occupied by the U.S. military. I think it was a telling slip.
It's hard to tell but are you talking about the cop in green that choked the guy to death? I can see him in the background at around the 5:30 mark and it does seem like he has smile on his face while talking to other officers but it's not a clear video.
What is even more disturbing to me is that he seemingly mock waves at the camera at the 6:58 mark. This guy gives no fucks that he killed a guy on camera. Of course he knows the police will protect him, it's what the family does no matter what.
I can't watch these videos anymore. They are making me both incredibly sad and disgusted at the same time.
Just watch the girl take his pulse, she knows he is dead at this point and at the same time she is being told to play along as the cops know they are being recorded.Here's the video after he was murdered. At around the 5:30 mark you see these "good" cops laughing.

They know what they are doing otherwise there might be a riot on the street.Just watch the girl take his pulse, she knows he is dead at this point and at the same time she is being told to play along as the cops know they are being recorded.
at 6:36 the guys ask "why aren't they doing CPR?" and the cop resonds "he's breathing." Really? all you did was quickly check for a pulse, didn't see anyone there check his ability to breath. lying bsatards

Homosexuals are targeted at a dispropriate rate by police?Please, we all know that minorties have it difficult, but that doesn't mean that white people have some ultimate immunity.
