Immediate dismissal with loss of all pension benefits.
Cameras must be MANDATORY.
Your camera fails, you get off the streets immediately.

It was murder - plain and simple.
No way that many shots are justified as self defence.

All of them need to be prosecuted.

I have another idea. If a cop can't keep his cool during the performance of his job...then let him find a "safer" place of employment. Sick and tired of those cops who go out looking for reasons to spray bullets all over the place.

My sister is a teacher in the city school district. The kids in her school have zero respect for police. They have told her that their parents tell them, "they don't have to do anything the cops tell them."

You seriously think cops are itching to pull out their guns and shoot people?

Forgetting the human factor for a moment...do you realize the world of shit a cop puts himself in when he shoots someone? There is no sane cop in this world "out looking for reasons to spray bullets all over the place."

None.

And then turn off their cameras and mics to cover up the rest of of the story.

I think one single guy took down Pablo Escobar.
Was this kid more of a threat than Pablo?

I remember that video a few months ago...where a guy in a hotel was on his knees with his arms in the air while pleading for his life...while several cops had high-powered rifles pointed at him, and were scaring him to death by screaming threats while making idiotic demands of him. If the cops honestly feel that their lives are in danger in situations such as this...then they should turn in their guns and go find a desk-job somewhere.

Read my last post, and give me another reason for the conduct of those cops in that video.

I said sane.

Maybe those cops weren't sane.

What "shit" do these rogue cops put themselves in? So many unexplained shootings have occurred, and we've featured some of them on this very board...and all we see are dismissals when these cops are taken to trial.

Don't they give "insanity tests" before handing out guns to cops?

No...these COPS are asking the SUSPECTS to be "perfect". And, if the suspects aren't "perfect", then they die...no matter how minor the offence.

Do you really believe cops are " looking to spray bullets all over the place"?

I guess you want them to wait till they are shot at and then return fire?

I agree on that one, cops were 100% in the wrong they should at least have been convicted of manslaughter.

Yes...I believe that some cops go out looking for the slightest reason to shoot somebody 20 times. And I present that hotel video as evidence to prove my point. If that guy who was begging for his life on his knees ended up getting shot that many times...then society needs protection from the cops.
