Marijuana sting operation, white 19 year old kid.

This is why you don't run from the police, even when morally you're in the right, they're just too damn trigger happy to kill you for a plant.

And notice how he's speeding through the parking lot, christ..

At first I was thinking "exaggerate much?" until I saw that he really was speeding in that parking lot. Couldn't believe my fucking eyes.
 
Another lunatic pothead goes apeshit trying to kill a cop. That poor cop was trying to save that young man's life, which is why he was traveling through the parking lot so quickly. In exchange for trying to save his life by putting him through the rehabilitation system so that the kid could pay his debt to society, he tried to run over him in the parking lot of a fucking Hardee's.

This is absurd, and this is exactly why pot should be illegal in all 50 states. One minute, you're rolling a joint and eating some curly fries. The next minute, you're trying to murder someone who ran straight up to the door of your car pointing a gun at you, who is trying to save your life. It's a total and complete loss of control. That kid acted completely out line in that situation.

I mean fucking seriously. You're sitting in a car, and someone suddenly runs up to you pointing a gun in your face. Do you really think the best course of action is to try to get the fuck out of dodge? That just shows how guilty you are. If you didn't have anything to hide, you would just sit there and do what the man asked you to do.

A cop didn't kill Zachary Hammond. Drugs killed Zachary Hammond. If that cop didn't shoot Hammond, then who knows how many other innocent people pointing guns in his face from out of nowhere he would have tried to run over with his car.
 
Probably sold a $10 bag of weed, and got shot for it, and will now end up in prison for a year or two due to all the extra charges (resisting arrest, obstruction of justice, etc.).

That makes total sense to me too. Sure glad the war on drugs is working out well.
 
It doesn't matter if you're selling weed or throwing water balloons. When a cop tells you to STOP and points a gun at you, you do it. To do otherwise in that moment is wrong for you and your health no matter how many rights think you have.
 
Yeah but when someone points a gun in your face unexpectedly its a pretty normal/natural response to panic. A smart cop would realise its going to be easier and safer to arrest him after he's calmed down. Wasn't there a passenger in the car as well?

Okay - that's literally what the average American street patrol cop is. They're not paid to think, they're paid to follow procedure like the 80-90IQ grunts they are.

And those procedures have grown to be more and more "safety of the officer" inclined, which is of course being abused by any low IQ being that figures out the concept of benefiting from an advantage they possess.

So - thats why 10 years ago it would be a much bigger deal, not because cops don't think, can't think, whatever. They are the 2 stupid-looking guys cracking their knuckles 3 feet behind the guy in the suit that is the govt. And the guy in the suit has created a set of rules for them where they have too much "freedom to protect their own personal safety". To the point where they can claim anything to be protection from personal harm.

"durrr no he wurs gonna rull ovah mah fut. i shotted him, i did. i felt unsafe about it k" <-- didnt read any reports on why cop wasn't charged, but it was this, a solid follow of "procedures", bet.

Put yourself in the cop's shoes...

1. You're a sociopathic thug.

2. You're confident you won't suffer major adverse consequences for shooting a perp.

Given those two circumstances, why not shoot? It might even give you a rush to effect that type of unprovoked violence on another human.
 
I know everyone's "boobooing" drone cops - but they already use them for everything else anyway - I'd trust a guy sitting in a chair smart enough to operate it from the center way moar. Not only would it be easier for overseers to walk around the center and monitor cops controlling drones for misconduct - but situations would play out with much less sad feels in that:

a. When a drone orders you around - you don't have the same reaction as you do when the monkey wearing a badge w the smug look is ordering you around.
b. When you use a guy smart enough to operate the drone from the station vs. the street patrol grunts who get more and more jaded and quick to do stupid shit.

I know its pipe dream cuz people hate drones [for the wrong reasons - do you know how easy its going to be for dealers to deal without actually having to be there and just being able to send a drone down for money, up, and back down with a baggie? yall have bigger issues than govmints watching you watch weird porn] - and realistically govmints needs the street force, etc - but, dreamerz gonna dream.
 
Why are people poking fun at the police on this one?

Kid with an open window makes no attempt to stop but instead tries to escape. Probably a panic but who knows, we weren't there so technically we have no say in this... but from the brief video and rest of the audio, looks like the police officer did what he had to in that chaotic situation.

The police aren't trigger happy. Some officers are on the job and they clearly shouldn't be, but that's how a very imperfect system is. But the police as a whole, especially street cops see things that you and I only see minor glimpses of from the comfort and safety of our own homes along with nothing even close to what they deal with on a regular, daily basis. Give police some fuckin respect and appreciation on that regard.

Really bugs me when people try to make all cops look bad because of specific scrutinized incidents. I thought you guys were smart?

;P
 
The cop experienced a loss of control (they hate that, and it likely stems from early childhood development) and instead of just letting the kid go, he chose to end his life. There's no doubt in my mind too, that the cop knew in that moment that he wasn't about to get ran over. He made the decision to pull the trigger after he was out of the way.

But let's assume the cop wasn't thinking clearly and really thought he was about to get ran over and acted in self defense.. I still have no sympathy (and certainly no respect) for someone who would occupy a position that requires them to victimize people for buying or selling plants. The war on drugs killed this kid, and the war on drugs can only exist when you have those willing to enforce it.

So? I don't have a problem with most of the stuff they confront. Drugs? Carrying firearms while on probation? Drinking and driving?

Doesn't bother me.

And the stuff that does bother me, such as unprovoked homicide and property damage, is better handled by agencies who must compete for clients.

You must be kidding.
 
Well, I am NOT excusing the shooting etc but the 'whole' story is not told in this thread.

His girlfriend that was sitting in the passenger seat texted a POLICE OFFICER by accident trying to sell drugs (Cocaine/pot). She arranged the meet and he bolted as you see in the video when they showed up. (Can not find the news link for the next statement anymore): He was known to the cops and he ran from them on three different occasions where they let him go and afterwards boasted about it. "They will never take me alive."

Now, this does NOT justify the shooting. The cop was an idiot for putting himself in the way of the vehicle and I do not condone the shooting of the kid in any way. He was absolutely trigger happy. However, this was not a poor innocent kid that just smoked a joint. NOT making excuses for the cop just trying to show both sides.

I'm sure there are some pussified Nordic countries that do this, America isn't one of them. Apparently you and that kid were unaware of that.
