dogdammit, i just can’t even with that shitty county to the north of me.
article says the cop called fire/rescue and made them sit on the curb right outside the f@cking ER doors!
you know that traumatized couple will get billed for that, too. in addition to the ER and subsequent medical attention. they’d better sue that pig.

With all the stories in which “cops do terrible things in or around an ER,” maybe the policy should be they aren’t allowed within 1,000 feet of the building* unless they have been called for help, are escorting a patient, or are being treated for something. When they’re just hanging around, that leads to problems.

*That seems to be the average for school drug-free zones, so it seemed like a good starting point for loitering law enforcement.

Cops kill guy, gunning him down. Nowhere, though, does the article actually says that.

More than a dozen officers show up at a funeral for a suspect’s father and open fire on him while he’s being embraced by one of the mourners? WTAF…

sounds like an execution.
or, more properly put, a gang hit.

This kid absolutely schools these two cops, and is far, far braver than I could be. It’s a long watch, but worth it. Jack*sses.

ETA: Giving a cop the finger is essentially the 1st Amendment version of carrying your AR-15 into Wal-Mart.

Oh, I don’t know what was happening, but I went to drop my kid off at the train station, saw a cop talking to a man on the way. 5 minutes later, on the way back, saw that at least 5 motorcycle cops had shown up to “help”… :frowning_face: The man was standing sort of in the middle of the group, hands at his side, not doing anything other than talking.

In my area if there’s more than one cop car involved in the stop, it’s odds-on certainty that they’ve got a Person of Color pulled over. Even if, as you point out, everyone is just standing around talking.

That’s kind of true here, too…

At first I read “record” in the headline as the verb instead of the adjective and was very confused.
But it soon became clear, and now I’m doing whatever the form of gloating is when it’s coated with Weltschmerz and existential angst.
Good.
