A lot of broke ass ignorant lowlifes in these comments how is the driver a thief ? If your car is up for repossession YOURE the theif by keeping a car you don’t own
Hell every good civilian should holler I'm a police officer then ,I guess in their eyes police officers lives are more valuable, deal with impersonating a police officer afterwards!
The offices put the public in jeopardy. The suspect crashed into another vehicle probably killing or seriously injuring other people. Officers need to find other ways to catch people who have done armed robbery. A high-speed chase is not necessary when no one has been kidnapped.
Blocking traffic is stupid. Agree. Uncalled-for malice, violence, and harm perpetrated by police goes waaaay beyond stupid. There was a right way to have done this. Cartman chose the wrong way. The protestors were prepared to be arrested. Not hurt or killed. The speed at which the officer plowed barricade with protesters nearby (risking bodily harm), then drew his gun on peaceful protestors, and then applied a wrist-lock control hold to one woman (while "We are not violent" was repeated in background), demonstrated a level of hate and lack of emotional control that should disqualify him from continuing any job in law enforcement. We should not entirely blame the officer, though. When we all ignore the human element in a conflict while viewing our adversary as non-human and deserving of harm/death, we become capable of all sorts of evil. The Nazi party famously had Goebbels to promote this. The US military famously had psychologists. Our society, on the other hand, has conservative and social media. Commenters cheer on as they see such violence. Rather than reflect on their own words and feel ashamed at themselves, both commenters and like-minded readers find themselves in an echo chamber with similarly-minded chimpanzees. The noise in the monkey house gets louder. More bones are lifted. More pain. More suffering. And all this time the point of the protests are forgotten. The protests against fossil fuel. The protests against improper forms of protest. Lawmaker-politicians sit idle regarding both, while collecting our tax dollars and pursuing interest of their own power and purses. The fact remains, though: Law enforcement has to stay above emotions such as hate. Not above the law, itself. Protect and serve the people, first. Not the flow of traffic with disregard. It is life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In that order. Our laws were constructed to guarantee these rights. These rights were suggested by Jefferson's Enlightenment-informed ideals. Those ideals were built atop a societal foundation of Christian love and compassion. We've taken that foundation of Christian love and compassion away. The structure has begun to topple. Hate is winning. We even (again) have a presidential candidate who embraces it. Encourages it. Hate sells, and we are buying. Make a choice to reject hate. To love your enemy. To engage in dialog instead of violence. To try to understand the viewpoint of your fellow human being. To help guide them. That is, if you truly know better. Consider their point, also, and question you own beliefs. Consider changing your heart. God save our great country.
Why should they need to identify themselves when they aren't in costume, and or retired? We are all earthlings,, not one of us should have any more validation because of a label!
