Is malicious vandalism now written in the procedures for protests?

Well, you have to demobilize the ENEMY I guess.

The suspect was trying to escape? We were in fear for our lives? Must have been Antifa dressed up as cops? If a 16-year-old black or hispanic kid did this, they'd gun him down.

the big blue carpet. THIS is the kind of behavior that is being protested.

makes me both sick and happy.

Nice work fella.

They methodically punctured all four tires on at least two cars in the video. There's far more sensible ways to keep a car from moving if that was their legal intent.

That bunch looked like storm troopers.......

If you want more stories about cops targeting journalists, let's go halfway around the globe to read about it:

US police target dozens of journalists during protests
By SETH J. FRANTZMAN JUNE 1, 2020

Ali Velshi of MSNBC said on Sunday that before being targeted, “we put our hands up and yelled ‘we’re media.’” The police responded “we don’t care” and shot them a second time.

I know there just has to be good men and women among their group. They can't all be short fused, aggressive, peace hating, throat choking, tire slashing, car ramming through a crowd, tear gas spraying in the eyes, rubber pellet firing in the face, pushing over pregnant women and 75 year old men, bullies.

But it's getting harder and harder every day.

They need to stop closing ranks around the "bad apples" and start ejecting them. There is still time to get us back to community policing, not militarized deputies of some larger and unelected force.

The police unions need to represent the community as well as their members. The union leaders seem to be acting as despots, toadying up to wannabe dictators like trump.

It’s the conservanazis who taken over the union and its principles human respect and dignity. Some of them are nothing more than Gestapo thugs.

I learned long ago what happens when you give a thug a badge and a gun .

I worked with the Teamsters at the national level in the 80s in their "dues collection" operation. Stopped being a way to represent the truckers and more of a way to shake out cash.

If you haven't seen it, Scorcese's "The Irishman" is a perhaps fictionalized view into that world.

... of some of Trump's "very fine people"

LOCK THEM UP!

Then every officer with a substantial number of complaints that led to official reprimands and or the need for the department to reach a financial settlement with someone due to the officers actions.

If there were good cops, they would undertake to have the bad cops brought to answer for their criminal actions. Since the bad cops are still in uniform and out on the street, this proves that there is no such thing as a good cop.

Since they have been caught on camera committing plenty of despicable crimes. One would think they were the real criminals.

and has his cabinet in place, his AG will need to investigate this harrassment and denial of citizens' basic rights. The MN cops need to be cleaned out.

What valid policing purpose do they have? They are malicious vandals and they need to answer for this.

Public Safety Officers my ass
