Hmmmm.
You are asking does it make sense that every time a cop comes into a shit neighborhood, 10 World Star chanting citizens shove cameras in their face. Yet only 15% of the 6 thousand homicides in south Chicago in the last 7 years had a witness.
yes, makes sense that those World Star citizens don’t want help or a
Safe neighborhood. Hence, the total disregard for police in the video above. The restraint the police showed in that video, especially to the belligerent woman attacking them is astounding.

Keystone cops in Louisville executed a no knock warrant in plain clothes on the wrong house and shot a 26 year old nurse to death.
Her boyfriend shot back at them with his legal firearm and is being charged with attempted murder by the DA.

There's context but it still sounds like whoever returned fire just fired blindly without taking a target.
Essentially doing the meme/stereotype of terrorists hiding behind a car and holding an AK over their head and shooting without looking.
Or like what Keanu Reeves character does in the scene at the convenience store in Street Kings.

Someone shot at police, police shot at someone... It's that kind of top shelf police work that's going to put the public's collective mind at ease about police brutality.

A. It must've been quite a punch landed on the teacher for the cops to be called... UFC prospect ahoy!
B. How did the cops not know that people would be outraged? lol
C. Why even attempt to use handcuffs? They should have known the kid was too tiny. lol
D. Well...it happened in Florida. That explains a lot.
Video Showing Florida Police Attempting To Handcuff 8-Year-Old Draws Outrage
https://us.yahoo.com/huffpost/8-year-old-boy-arrested-florida-020546924.html
The arrest of an 8-year-old boy at a Florida school in 2018 has sparked an outcry after civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump, who is representing the boy’s family, posted online footage of police attempting to handcuff the child.
Crump shared police body camera footage on Sunday night of the incident, which had been viewed more than 1.5 million times as of Monday evening. He said in an emailed news release that the boy’s mother, Bianca N. Digennaro, had retained him.
The arrest took place at Gerald Adams Elementary in Key West, Florida, on Dec. 14, 2018, after the boy reportedly punched a teacher in the chest, according to an arrest report obtained by the Miami Herald. The child was arrested on a felony battery charge, according to the report. He is not named due to his age.
In a statement, Crump said the boy had an individual education plan in place to assist with a disability.
“Instead of honoring and fulfilling that plan, the school placed him with a substitute teacher who had no awareness or concern about his needs and who escalated the situation by using her hands to forcibly move him,” Crump said.
“When he acted out, the teacher called the police, who threatened him with jail and tried to put him in handcuffs, which fell off because he was too little.”
The video shows police officers first telling the child he’s going to jail and then asking him to place his hands up against a cabinet so they can attempt to handcuff him. They stop when the boy’s hands prove too small to be cuffed. They then walk him out of the school with his hands in front of him. When they reach the exit, one officer has a word with the child.
“You understand this is very serious, OK?” the officer says in the footage. “I hate that you put me in this position that I have to do this. The thing about it is, you made a mistake. Now it’s time to learn from it and grow from it, not repeat the same mistake again.”
Crump called the incident a “heartbreaking example of how our educational and policing systems train children to be criminals by treating them like criminals.” If convicted, the child would have become a convicted felon at just eight years old, he noted.
“This little boy was failed by everyone who played a part in this horrific incident,” he said.
Crump ― who is also representing the families of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor ― and civil rights attorney Devon Jacob, will file a federal lawsuit against the officers, school officials, the city of Key West and the Monroe County School District, the statement said.
Key West Police Chief Sean T. Brandenburg told the Miami Herald Monday that his officers did nothing wrong.
“Based on the report, standard operating procedures were followed,” he said.
A spokesperson for the Monroe County School District said in an email to HuffPost that the district has not been involved in any litigation about the incident in question. “Due to the possibility of this matter becoming a legal issue in the future, we have been advised not to make further comment about the incident at this time,” the statement said.
A City of Key West representative did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment.
The video drew condemnation from advocacy groups and many others online, including former Housing Secretary Julián Castro, who called the footage “unbelievable.”
“Police should have no role in punishing our kids or pulling traumatic stunts like this in our schools,” he said.
The American Civil Liberties Union called for an end to police presence in schools, as did the Southern Poverty Law Center.
“Violent interactions like this between children with disabilities and police cause long lasting harm and trauma to kids and their families,” the SPLC tweeted.
“Arresting an 8 year old child and sending him to jail is NEVER acceptable. Police have no place ‘disciplining’ our kids in schools.”

Punched a teacher in the chest?
That usually gets you arrested. Expelled too

- Ravinder Singh, an Arlintong Texas police officer was responding to a welfare check, about a woman passed out on a grassy are.
- As he approached Margarite Brooks, her 6 month old puppy ran towards the cop barking.
- The cop backs up , pulls his gun and shoots at the puppy. He ends up also shooting the woman while aiming for the puppy. The woman died.
- This happened just over a year ago, but only now did the D.A.'s office bring a charge of negligenct homocide against the cop . After the shooting the cop 'resigned'
- If found guilty of the charge the cops only has to serve a maximum of 2 years in a state jail and $10K fine.
- Father of Margarita Brooks wants involuntary manslaughter charge as the current charge is too leninet.
- Cop is East Indian and victim is White female. Cop was hired in 2018.
Brooks' father said his daughter was waiting for her boyfriend when she was approached by the officer.
"That day she was simply sitting in the shade of a tree with her 6-month-old puppy waiting for her boyfriend to come back from work," he said, questioning why Singh used his gun to stop the dog.
"He had a baton, he had mace, he had Taser. There's a de-escalation of force," Troy Brooks said. "This was a panicked 25-year-old man who was scared of a 6-month-old puppy."

The victim's father , a retired firefighter , said :
Brooks said the police work for the community, but his experience coupled with hundreds of other incidents across the country make him believe that isn’t true.
“It’s not a blue life. It’s a blue shirt. And we paid for it as taxpayers,” he said. “You should work for us. We should define your job, not you.”

Wtf !! I mean WTF.
Some cops go from 1 to 100 in a flash. Why the hell did he even attempt to shoot the dog. Not like it was a fully grown Rott or Pitbull or Presa or Dogo Argentino.
Just back up and see what the puppy wants to do. How much damage can a 6 month old puppy do? He has a baton, he has mace / pepper spray and a stun gun. Why the hell would he shoot it and how the hell could he be soo reckless as to shoot soo haphazardly that he hit the woman.
Because of this POS cop a young woman and mother of 3 is dead.
Why did it take a year to indict the cop ?
Why is the charge soo lenient, 2 years and a $10K fine is an insult to justice. What would have happened if a civilian had shot a cop dead under the similar circumstances.

If you’re a citizen, you would never in a million years be able to blow away a dog like that. If your kids are around and there’s an unleashed pit bull, by all means, protect the children if you have to.
But yes, reforms to policing are necessary. IRONICALLY, it is the behavior of those in urban (generally African American) ares that make these reforms so difficult because of the danger police (and all normal people) are up against in those areas.

Bad hire, bad shoot. People have to start to realize that most of the country pays cops dick. You will not get good hires and candidates at 49k a year. I have a solution. Make it military connected. Only vets and active duty, give them housing and benefits....
