A police officer involved in the protests over Michael Brown’s death in Ferguson, Missouri, has been relieved of his duty after video surfaced of him describing black people as “little perverts” and Barack Obama as an illegal immigrant.Dan Page – who was seen live on CNN earlier this week threatening to arrest the network’s anchor Don Lemon – was recorded in April giving a speech in which he railed against Muslims and gay people, saying: “I’m into diversity – I kill everybody.”
What the fuck did he do to deserve that?Jesus, that's what tasers and pepper spray exists for...
Not to mention, handcuffing a dead man like that is absolutely disgusting.
No shit he murdered him. Anybody that doubted he did is fucking kidding themselves about the level of racism on the American police force. ESPECIALLY in Missouri.
I don't have very high respect for the police, but I was waiting for some solid proof before choosing a side. But, fuck, it's right there. The Establishment will pay for this one.
They need to start doing drive bys on these motherfuckers. Murder them all. Drag their families out on to the street and tie them to light posts. Especially that race traitor son of a bitch chief of police.
Sorry, but I'm not going to take you seriously when you saw both sides as guilty.
Regarding the video in the OP, you should all read this. And none of this is made any better by jumping to eager conclusions.
"No, I cannot holster my weapon, draw, aim, and fire my taser in 1.5 seconds. Even if I could, I would not risk my life or my partner's life by using it and missing. Could one have drawn his taser while the other kept the subject covered? Maybe. It would endanger one of them for sure, especially since the subject was easily within range to lunge and cause harm before he died.I promise you, if someone decides to come at you with a knife, you're not going to reach for your pepper spray."
They cuffin' him, he already dead.
No, these are two different events. The Brown shooting is the one that caused the shitstorm and the riots in Ferguson, partially because it wasn't caught on video and there's a ton of conflicting witness reports. The one in the video ("the Powell shooting") was a different, unrelated shooting that took place after the police was called for a man shoplifting.
Fuck, I didn't notice that. That being said, British police officers in this country deal with knives on a daily basis, without the use of deadly force. I'm more understanding of the officers' position though, but it is still blatantly evident that there is a problem with methods of enforcement and the racism within the force.
The guy committed a robberyThe cops didn't know he had a gunThe guy kept getting near themHe pulled out a weaponHe was shotEnd of the storyI would and will do the same thing when I become a cop. Oh, and let Challenger be all talk and actually go by what he says. I'll have no fucking problem taking that pathetic piece of shit down if he EVER lays a single hand on me
The day you become a cop is the day liberty dies. Talking like that, you don't deserve to be a cop. Stop making everything about this personal vendetta you have against him.
The Ferguson cops murdered Brown/Powell maybe (another racist cop is suspended)
