Here's an example of a police officer that gives a damn

Not all police are jackasses. This is a perfect example. The patience this officer showed was exemplary. We need more like him. Regardless of race.

[UK2K]

I could post 10x as many examples of cops doing the right thing, but you'd just tell me I'm a cop defender and I'm deflecting away from the true problems.

Also... bet he wasn't in a shitty neighborhood because a cop, sitting, with his back to the open is an easy target for a BLM activist.

[Smoke117]

Oh god...take your sjw act somewhere else. I can't believe we have the same favorite player. :biggums:

Neither can I. And it's not an act. This is how I feel all cops should handle things. In stead of shooting first and asking questions later.

Everything is a melodrama with you.

[Patrick Chewing]

There's a million cases of police officers doing the "right thing", but of course dishonest people and the dishonest media out there only want to focus on the few instances where a cop does something wrong or questionable.

[atljonesbro]

Wait... Does OP really not believe this accounts for 99% of police officers benign good people? My god the media is a powerful tool

Haven't you heard? The police literally have a little booklet with a list of brothers to kill.

Stop ****ing whining black people, jesus christ, the most cry baby people in the world.

I want to believe that the people in this country are smart, but look at what's been going on in this country for the last couple of years. We are surrounded by stupidity.

There's about 350 million of us in this country. We can't be this dumb.

It should be pretty obvious that the media cherry picks very specific instances throughout the millions of police interactions there are. It gives the illusion that it's very common when it just isn't. I feel like that's just basic ground level stuff that people should be able to comprehend but they just can't

[Patrick Chewing]

The funny thing is that there are honest reporters and journalists out there on the Independent circuit that are actually reporting the truth.

The problem is that the activists have also taken social media hostage. Therefore, when these reporters report the truth on the streets, they are labeled racists and quickly vilified.

Orwellian to say the least.

[97 bulls]

What's the problem with you guys? I'm SHOWING AN INSRANCE OF AN OFFICER SHOWING PATIENCE AND YOU STILL WANT TO BITCH???? WOW

I'd be the first to say that not all police are bad. But I'm going to call out what I deem to be unfair. Point blank.

You clowns are acting as if I have an agenda. I'd I did, and my agenda is to show police in a bad light, I sure wouldn't have posted this video giving an officer props.

[Patrick Chewing]

We just want you to understand that 99% of police interactions with civilians is non-hostile.

There's nothing wrong. Problem is you get dudes here that literally believe it's 99% of officers that are good and it's merely a media creation of corrupt/bad cops on an institutional level. Apparently we are the brainwashed ones. These dudes refuse to do their research.

To act as though there isn't a big issue with this shit in our country is being willfully ignorant.

[warriorfan]

Going off of a primetime rant from another thread where he was talking about how pedofiles gravitate towards jobs with access to children. It's the exact same thing here. Except it's with people who are obsessed with power and have emotional problems or are even sadistic to some extent and the police force. This is not on accident. These type of people know who they are and seek out these police jobs where they have lots of control, access to deadly weapons and the right to use them, and the ability to ruin people's lives. When they say "do what you love". Lots of these crooked cops are doing it. They are living the dream.

It's not 99%. Get the f*ck outta here dude :oldlol:

13,000,000 interactions with officers every year.

Maybe 1,000 end up with a suspect dead; about 2/3 of those, the suspect had a gun. Most of the remaining ones, the suspect used a bat, car, or some other weapon.

But to give you the benefit of your argument....

1,000/13,000,000 = .000076%

You're right, its most like 99.9993%.

Oh it's the reality. Do the math yourself. Don't be lazy. Look at how many arrests (or police interactions as stated above) are made daily versus how many times a cop shoots a person of color.


If we lived through your eyes, we'd be hearing about a cop shooting every 5 seconds.

IT JUST DOESN'T HAPPEN.

What about police brutality? A lot goes unrecorded. What about the cover ups? And what's more, is the INNOCENT individuals (which almost always end up being black) that die due to a trigger happy, antsy, racists, scared of black men cop.

I was watching a video of Laman Lathon (he's a footall player) being pulled over. The officer requests his license and registration, he reaches for it, and the officer reaches for his gun. Why does this have to happen? If you're that damn scared, don't be a police officer. How unreasonable can you be?

[97 bulls]

To show an example, a news team did a video of what most likely would've happened if the Walter Scott shooting hadon't been recorded.

https://youtu.be/klJjmFQf3dA

I believe this is exactly what would've hsppened. And how many of these have happened?

So he asked for his license and registration and Laman wants to reach UNDER his seat. Then after the officer asks him not to, he tells him no and continues to? He didn't reach for his license unless he carries his wallet under his seat...

And if he does, why not say 'my license is under my seat, I'm going to reach for it'?

Cause you gangsta... and you ain't no bitch, amiright?

NFL Star Lies About Traffic Stop: Another false alarm of racism?

This is the kind of bullshit I can't stand, and why I can only school you for so long before it gets old... because what you say is rarely ever what actually happens.

How about you watch the ****ing video and tell me if YOU were a cop, and you pulled someone over, and you asked for their license and registration, and they reached UNDER their seat, you tell them not to, and they do it anyway and want to argue over it.... You're cool with that? I bet you'd just be like 'nah dawg go ahead and reach everywhere I can't see cause I'm a cool cop and DGAF'.

I did watch the video. Again, what am I to do? The officer asked for identification. What if it was in his wallet and he had to reach behind him like Castille? Or if it was in his glove compartment? Where is an aceptable place to keep your info? To use your line IT'S NOT ILLEGAL to keep your wallet under the seat.

[Hawker]

Saw a cop pull over and help push a guy's car that ran out of gas.

Police do great things all the time. It's just the media that only covers the bad stuff it seems to cause drama. Smart people will recognize this and not get all up in arms when the police commit a single bad incident.

No it's not, but when he says 'don't reach under your seat', shut your ****ing mouth and stop arguing UNLESS what you have to say is relevant to your wallet or why you are reaching under your seat.

Its not that ****ing hard but you have a mentality where you don't have to do something someone tells you if you don't want cause you're a grown ass man and nobody tells me shit and blah blah blah.

Just shut the **** up and stop arguing. Its that simple. Why do you always have to argue and make excuses? Just do what you're told like 99% of other grown adults.

Your dad must not have been around to teach you respect and discipline, because you'd never see me arguing with my dad. Maybe that's why, after numerous run-ins with cops, I'm still alive.

[Jameerthefear]

Had a cop try to ask me what I was doing walking around so late at night a couple days ago. Told him "don't worry about it" and kept walking. Beta bitch :oldlol:

Dude. He told him his wallet was under his seat. All these things are happening simultaneously. It shouldn't even have to come to that. He's able to keep his information wherever he wants. Again. I find it funny that you justify following a person, because it's not illegal, but won't make the same concessions here.


My dad taught me common sense. If I ask a person for some thing and he reaches to get it, I'm not gonna panick like a scared little bitch.

And you sure as he'll shouldn't be talking about fathers. Yours obviously did a bad job seeing as how you've had so many run-ins with the law.

No he didnt. He reached under the seat, the cop said don't do that, then he continued while arguing with him.

Get the **** out of here with your bullshit. The very first thing the driver said when asked was "hold up, first of all...."

So no, he didn't say anything like you said he did. Stop ****ing lying. Good god.

And yeah, I had a ton of run ins with the law, but never did I ever disrespect them or argue with them. When I was caught stealing to pay for lunch money... guess what? I didn't argue with them over it. I did it, and I knew it, and that was that. There were no negotiations.

OH come on.

First the offixer greets him and states who he is.

Then the officer requests Lathons Drivers license and Registration etc. I can only assume Latin reaches to get it. And then the officer tells him not to reach under the seat.

What are you dis agreeing with here? Again this is a blatant double standard on your part. Why does what he said matter? So he said "hold up"? Big friggn deal. Is that illegal? He's replying to an officer command.

I mean damn. If his information (the info the officer asked for mind you) is under his seat, then he's gonna have to go under his seat to get it. Why is this so hard to understand?

Did the officer tell him not to reach under his seat? Yes. But that's why I stated simultaneously.

But please. Answer my question. What law did the man break to make the officer feel he had to draw his weapon?

[UK2K]

OH come on.

Stop. THEN WHAT HAPPENS??

The driver responds 'hold up, first of all... no no no no'.
Then he reaches under his seat again.
The officer tells him a SECOND time not to reach under his seat, and says 'do what I tell you to, don't reach under your seat'.
The driver responds 'hey dude you better calm down'...

Or what? Calm down or what?

Just shut the **** up and do what you're told. It's. Not. That. Hard.




What are you dis agreeing with here? Again this is a blatant double standard on your part. Why does what he said matter? So he said "hold up"? Big friggn deal. Is that illegal? He's replying to an officer command.

Because you are trying to frame the story as something it's not. He had a good reason to pull his gun; because he just pulled someone over at 1:30 in the morning and the driver is pissed off and reaching under his seat.

You understand that much, right? Cause when I asked you before if you'd let shit go, you never responded, so I want to make sure you understand why he did what he did.


I mean damn. If his information (the info the officer asked for mind you) is under his seat, then he's gonna have to go under his seat to get it. Why is this so hard to understand?

Then say that. 'He did say that'. No, he didn't. He said you better calm down. That's not the same as 'my license is under my seat, I'm going to get it'.


Did the officer tell him not to reach under his seat? Yes. But that's why I stated simultaneously.

Numerous times, yes. Once was sufficient. He understood English the first time, yes? Why are you going to make him say it a third, fourth, and fifth time?


But please. Answer my question. What law did the man break to make the officer feel he had to draw his weapon?

It's 1:30 in the morning. He's alone. The driver is clearly agitated, and now he's reaching under his seat. Who's to say that the driver of that car didn't have 60 pounds of meth in his trunk and two strikes on his record? You don't know these people. You don't know anything about them. That's what you fail to grasp... you treat everyone like they're Susie Homemaker, somewhere along the line someone is going to take advantage of you and you're going to end up dead.

That's why it's imperative to keep your uniform clean, and sharp, and pressed, and all your gear spotless at all times. Prisoners who were incarcerated openly stated (after attacking a guard) they picked him because he was fat, and his uniform looked like ass, and his shoes were never shined. He was lazy and an easy target.

I would love... LOVE if you ever had to approach someone's car at 1:30 in the morning by yourself and see how you respond when the driver starts to get pissy and reaching around the car. It's pretty ****ing scary. Want a real rush? Try approaching a car that has MULTIPLE people in the car and you have to watch all of their hands at all times. Or, like videos I've seen before, while you are chatting with the driver the passenger is stepping out the other side to shoot you. You think you're cool and that if you're cool to them they'll be cool to you, but you're completely wrong.

You don't know the first thing about law enforcement. At all.

You gotta appreciate OP's enthusiasm on the subject matter at hand.

However, OP fails to understand that the world isn't perfect and it never will be. In fact, it's impossible to have a perfect world because you need a balance.

People do bad things to one another, but OP's focus is on those minuscule samples of when something bad happens and it's not fair to solely focus on those and make it a bigger issue than it should be. At the end of the day, we have to be thankful that there's an overwhelming majority of police officers that are doing the job by the book and keeping the streets safe for us so we can safely experience the freedoms and liberty this great country has to offer.

I never said the job of a police officer was easy. What I said was, the officer made a request. The man was trying to comply. You can't acknowledge that. Plain and simple.

You also can't acknowledge that what Lathon did was not illegal.

I realize that the officer is scared. So was Lathon. He said at least three times that he didn't want to be killed tonight. The officer chose that job. Maybe it's not for him.

Again I'm acknowledging BOTH sides here. You're only looking at it from the side if the officer. So to summarize. The black man can't be flustered, He shouldn't be concerned about his life. Only the life of the officer matters. So the black man's life does not matte here. Am I right?

As far as your video. There were three situations here. All worse case.

When the man was behind the car, I would've kept my distance, and told him to come out into the open.

In regards to the men fighting, I see nothing wrong with what he did (he being the man playing the officer). He kept his distance, he backed up, demanded the man to stand down and he wouldn't.

The third situation is tuff. I would've called for back up before physically trying to subdue someone. Again, I would've kept my distance, and shot him if he came at me.

What you showed me wasn't impressive. I showed you an example of text book police work where a white cop shot and killed a black man. The situation where that black guy was killed in that temple. Show me any black person that called out that officer. He had no choice.

I couldn't agree more. So why defend the buffoonery? Hell I show a video of an officer actually showing that he cares, an ounce of kindness, restraint, and I'm still getting an argument here. Why?
