'I can't wait' to 'go out and start slaughtering' Black people: 3 NC cops fired after racist rant


(Raw Story) On Wednesday, the Port City Daily reported that three police officers in Wilmington, North Carolina, have been fired after dash-cam footage recorded a profane and racist rant in which they fantasized about “slaughtering” Black people and used the N-word.

“Michael ‘Kevin’ Piner, James ‘Brian’ Gilmore, and Jessie E. Moore II were all terminated from the force. The announcement came from the new Chief of Police Donny Williams — not even 24-hours into his first day as chief,” reported Michael Praats. “[Piner], along with two other officers have been fired from the department after dash-cam footage recorded two phone conversations — accidentally — and a supervisor conducting a routine audit of the videos found the disturbing content.”

“We are just gonna go out and start slaughtering them f**king n****rs,” said Piner in the footage. “I can’t wait. God, I can’t wait.” .............(more)

and had to try & fill it out 4 fucking times before the email went through--it kept telling me my email was a SECURITY RISK

tip: don't copy and past the headline, don't link to article, don't use punctuation such as !

what a pain in the ass. next time i'll just write "call me--i want to tell you something"

(jesus! don't make it too easy for constituents to contact you)

by the fourth go around i essentially said we need a national database for bad cops, saw an article on raw story, look it up

UGH!

To be an awareness and removal of narcissists,authoritarians and sociopaths,those dark triad personality types.

Then when they are discovered they are removed,be it a low wage job,a CEO or a president.

These people are the problem even though they think they can do no wrong and think they are entitled and other such shit. They cause the Lions share of the suffering in this society.

Let them all suffer and die off. No more pity for psychopaths.

They sound like this could cause them to act out and who knows maybe we'll start hearing about young black kids committing suicide by hanging.

their actions and firing will be sent in to that office. From what the article implied, people are checked through that before given employment as a police officer now.

I don't know how long the agency has been in existence, it may be one of the reforms that President Obama championed.

The article also said that the District Attorney's office will review every case that each of the three were involved in. So more hurt could be coming to those Nazis.

My guess is problems will be found.

As the article pointed out, they got caught when a Sargent was doing a routine review of dashcam and body cam video. She found the accidental recording and flagged it to her superiors. So to people that claim all cops are bad, there are decent cops out there that are trying to do their jobs right.

The Chief that fired them will report their names and activities to that bureau, so that they don't get hired anywhere else in the state.

out from this trash, and they need a database to make sure none of them can ever again use their racism to hurt another human being.
