I thought I'd start a thread on the challenges faced by the cop-ial community.

Law enforcement gets away with too much in our society. Look at the secret service just deleting texts they are supposed to keep.

400 cops is nowhere near enough. Fund more.

Soooo, it takes MORE than 400 good guys with guns to stop ONE bad guy with a gun?

Gun nuts? NRA? RNC? Anyone? Beuller?

Excuse me, we were assured that Boudin was the real problem and that it was quite easy for voters and the public at large to understand what Boudin did wrong and what needed to change to make our streets safe. The fact is the vast majority of people have no idea what goes on in the DA's office or between the DA and cops and the tweet you shared is plausible.

I am a bit skeptical of the "mildly reformist" tag on Boudin, particularly when the previous DA was a guy like Gascon. Disingenuous, bad faith conservatives are going to have a field day with that notion. But mostly they will just ignore crime in SF until right wing media focuses their attention on it again.

Terribly sad.

No one wants to be a cop.

No one wants to do their job that they swore an oath to.

The bar continues to be lowered for police recruits.

I hear about it here in the East Bay from law enforcement friends of mine all the time.

The application no longer says, "Have you ever used cocaine?"

It now says . . . "When was the last time that you used cocaine?"

Police academies that start out with 60 candidates are lucky if they have 15 by the end of the class.

I am guessing just like society's bad apples grow to hate cops, cops grow to hate society's bad apples. There is unfortunate prejudice on both sides.

Lawrence O'Donnell devoted a segment to explaining. I will summarize, unless you want to watch.

1. First thing cops heard about the gunman was that he was armed with "an AR".

2. They lacked a "rifle rated protection shield", and thus EVERY ONE OF THEM was afraid to go in there and take him out.

3. Only after shields arrived on scene did they enter.

4. The AR is such a devastating weapon, it stopped all those cops in their tracks.

Viewer Conclusion: maybe we should ban all AR guns!!

The last sentence about unfortunate prejudice connects the dots. Black Americans commit crimes at a higher rate than others so cops develop a prejudice against black Americans. Generally, cops also are more likely to have negative encounters with black Americans than other races. This develops or reinforces a stereotype. This goes both ways as black Americans develop a negative stereotype against cops based on their bad behaviors, abuses of power, and negative interactions.

I dunno man.

With stop and frisk in NYC, cops were far more likely to target people of color, but white people were more likely to have weapons. Who are the bad apples there?

Cops stop black drivers 3x more than white drivers, but are more likely to find drugs and weapons when they stop white drivers. Who are the bad apples there?

The bolded sentence in your comment is doing a lot of work. Maybe if they stopped disproportionately targeting black men, they wouldn't be more likely to have negative encounters with black people.

By the way, if you re-read your initial post in the context of G4R's comment, you might realize that it appears to say that black people are society's bad apples. I do agree that stereotypes are bad and that it appears to be a vicious cycle of police brutality and targeting of black communities that leads to cops having more negative experiences with black people than they otherwise should. I think that mitigations and regulations put in place to curb racial profiling should be effective in reducing these harmful police practices.

Some of the reason that cops are more likely to find weapons and drugs on white people per search is because of profiling. Cops may only stop and frisk non-black people when they have actual evidence to make them suspicious. Therefore, they are more likely to find something when searching those people.

Many times yes. Sometimes it is logical. When I am alone and someone regardless of what race is walking towards me with baggy clothes and a beanie covering their entire body in 80 degree heat, I get nervous. More often than not, that person is black, even if there are hardly any black people living in that neighborhood. Many black Americans have developed a fashion modeled off of what criminals wear and then act surprised when they get stopped and frisked. It's tough both ways.

Or it could just be bias on the part of the police and the legal system. Take for instance the use of marijuana. When it was illegal there was no difference in the use rates of marijuana when comparing whites and blacks yet blacks were more likely to be arrested. When arrested guess who got prison and who got drug diversion programs. We again saw this in the 80s and 90s with cocaine. Whites were usually caught with powder while blacks with crack guess who got lighter sentences or a drug diversion program and who got prison for the same amounts? Sentencing guidelines didn't change until crack became more prevalent in white communities.

You can't talk about police crime without talking about black crime. Unfortunately, Republicans are uncomfortable with talking about the latter while Democrats pretend like it doesn't exist.

I grew up in the 1960's and early 70's in Oakland. OPD were mean as f@uck in those days and I was afraid of them. BTW, my maternal grandfather was OPD. He retired in 1940 (he was born in 1880 and he was 40 when my Mom was born).
He wore a thick watch in his breast pocket. While investigating a burglary, he got shot. The watch saved his life. My Mom gave me the watch. I will give it to my son some day. The watch:

Why did he flee from the cops into this apartment? . He was going more than 50% over the speed limit. He didn't stop at a stop sign. He fled. Does he think the laws don't apply to him? Should the cops have patiently waited outside the apartment?

We can't excuse the criminal's poor behavior just like we shouldn't excuse the behavior of racist cops. The cops absolutely had the right to go into the apartment. Those who criticize such are clowns.

The instances of cops not shooting surrendering murderers is irrelevant here. The speed limit was 20 miles per hour. He was going way over the limit. That is a big deal. He ran a stop sign. He ran from the police.
This guy shouldn't be your hero. Respect the law.

Where did g4r call him his hero? G4r has displayed empathy for a person who was subjected to unfair treatment by a state actor. You're acting like Judge Dredd rules apply to black people and you've already acknowledged tha the state doesn't apply laws equally to all people.

I think it's just write something controversial and, if enough people believe it, it will be true. If anything, some cities cut funding and now are having a hard time attracting police officers and are having to pay a premium.

Isn't that the same explanation offered by police when they murdered Breonna Taylor? "Oops. Our bad! Not everyone is perfect."

And expecting police to get an address correct is not really an expectation of perfection. It's more like a minimum competency standard. If you can't correctly read an address you probably shouldn't be a cop with a gun.

I don't think that was the explanation made when the police officers 8000 miles away shot Ms. Taylor. They don't have anything to do with each other. Your lumping them together is an example of anti-cop prejudice.

New York City was only paying $16 an hour for lifeguards, which is $1 more than minimum wage. As a result, there was a "iifeguard shortage" because there weren't enough people available at that extremely low salary for living in the New York City area. Adams was criticized because amid the lifeguard shortage, he tried and failed to boost police spending by nearly $200 million.

At $16 an hour, you're probably going to live in a place that's going to cost you 3 weeks of your monthly salary for your monthly rent.

That "shortage" resulted in closed pools. We would all agree that keeping pools open to keep youths busy is a good thing. And closing pools is a bad thing, right?






Days after the 4th of July, Adams announced that lifeguard salaries were being raised to $19.46 an hour.





Now what does this have to do with Los Angeles County lifeguards? I have no idea. Los Angeles County lifeguards are just different animals.

Ok, some people (with manager-sounding titles) make six figures.

But the Los Angeles County lifeguards are part of the Los Angeles County Fire Department. Their mission goes way beyond saving people from drowning.

I think the problem is that lifeguards are looked as equivalent to the fry cook at McDonald's, 7-Eleven clerk, teacher or other jobs that people consider lowly.

But they provide an important service (even moreso in L.A. County).

This beach was staffed from 10 am to 6 pm. He was swimming at 7 pm, which is not "beating the heat.". The officers indicate they arrested him for failure to comply with their directions, such as showing ID when they were talking with him. I am sure there is truth to the lifeguard shortage and better pay would alleviate understaffing, but the tweet you posted is idiotic. That beach is logically closed after 6 pm for people's safety. It is the most dangerous beach in the county, with rip currents and shark sightings.

I took a look at the temperatures at a few shoreline locations in NYC. I couldn't find one from Rockaway Beach, nor could I determine the exact date from the story, so I used recent data. Temperatures at 7 PM generally were a degree or two cooler than the high temperatures for the day. Temperatures didn't really start dropping until about 8 PM. So, I don't think the "he's not beating the heat argument" flies.

Fox's show COPS is still on - 33 seasons after debuting - so you are free to watch it if you want a sanitized promotional view of police work.

You are right that there could be demand for a TV show highlighting the white privilege cops have to face when they do come into contact with entitled white people like the politician scum in the referenced tweet. Building a more just society starts with calling out this sort of misconduct.

The reason this is news is because police are held to a higher standard. You may think that they should be held to the same standard as criminals, but really they shouldn't. They are charged with upholding the law. They should be better than criminals.



By the way, there are plenty of shows showing the positive side of cops.


As Unit2Sucks said, you can watch COPS, which was revived by Fox News' streaming service last year one year after it was canceled.




Live PD was canceled shortly after George Floyd was killed....when it emerged how they distort reality and don't show cops behaving badly.






Well, guess what? Live PD is back under a new name.




And you have fictional shows portraying police in a positive light: A whopping 19 shows on broadcast TV!!!!

ABC has The Rookie and The Rookie: Feds.

NBC has Law & Order, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Law & Order: Organized Crime and Chicago P.D.

CBS has NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, NCIS Hawaii, East New York, S.W.A.T., Blue Bloods, FBI, FBI: Most Wanted, FBI: International and CSI: Vegas.

Fox has 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lone Star.

The CW has Walker.


And of course, you have local TV news, which can't really go after the police too hard because they are dependent on them for stories.

This cop was doing her job correctly:



Hope this guy never gets elected or hired to do anything. He can apologize all he wants. He has a deep seated personality of entitlement. The officer acted perfectly while probably suppressing the desire to puch this guy.


We need more videos of proper police behavior and the piss poor behavior of those stopped by the police. Of course it only makes the news when someone that the media hates worse than cops is the target.

The reason this is news is because police are held to a higher standard. You may think that they should be held to the same standard as criminals, but really they shouldn't. They are charged with upholding the law. They should be better than criminals.



By the way, there are plenty of shows showing the positive side of cops.


As Unit2Sucks said, you can watch COPS, which was revived by Fox News' streaming service last year one year after it was canceled.




Live PD was canceled shortly after George Floyd was killed....when it emerged how they distort reality and don't show cops behaving badly.






Well, guess what? Live PD is back under a new name.




And you have fictional shows portraying police in a positive light: A whopping 18 shows on broadcast TV!!!!

ABC has The Rookie and The Rookie: Feds

NBC has Law & Order, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Law & Order: Organized Crime and Chicago P.D.

CBS has NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, NCIS Hawaii, East New York, S.W.A.T., Blue Bloods, FBI, FBI: Most Wanted, FBI: International and CSI: Vegas.

Fox has 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lone Star.


And of course, you have local TV news, which can't really go after the police too hard because they are dependent on them for stories.




Yes, police should be held to a higher standard. Those are all Hollywood dramas. Many stories portray police in a a positive light and there are also dramatizations of poor police work and corruption.

It doesn't matter. As this essay argues, when you make police the center of the action on numerous shows, the point of view of the authorities is the default view of seeing the world.

I assume 003 thinks we should celebrate all the times Derek Chauvin didn't kill unarmed black men. You know, to be fair.

Reading Off Topic is the closest (I hope) to feeling like a fentanyl user. I feel so bad after reading most comments but I can't stop.

You should assume I think exposing police misconduct is important in order to build a more just and equitable society.

let me rephrase in the exonerative passive voice a journalist would use.

82gradDLSdad was made to suffer malaise after being exposed to excess fentanyl use as a result of comments posted on a message board in response to controversial actions by members of his society. It is expected that he will experience a full recovery from his exposure.

The white depravity reproduces itself
I imagine it's quite difficult to go against everything one previously thought to be true. Existence Lineage History all skewed to produce him and others that are afflicted
Some are drunk off white power and now that has become the norm for too many white folks. But it seems more white people are seeing through bs and are like enough is enough
How (are) you gonna win when you ain’t right within…

Do you think they were hitting the resisting suspect because they were trying to subdue him, angry, or because they are jerks who enjoy doing it?

Doesn't matter

They were wrong and knew full well they were wrong …

This time it's assault last time it may have been murder but covered up. Next time it may be rape or sexual assault of a child

Yep….but in that part of the country one can only wonder what a civil jury would award that particular plaintiff.

The government may decide to roll the dice and take its chances if it can't get a decent settlement.

Motions in limine will be made in the case to keep the specifics of the plaintiff's crimes from the jury on the grounds that the evidence is more prejudicial than probative with regard to analyzing the force used during the arrest.

It does matter. It wasn't rape, and it wasn't sexual assault of a child. You understand that, right?
