Rep. Karen Bass on How Democratic Leaders May Address Policing With Senate Control | MSNBC
“These pretzels are making me thirsty!”
They need to do something about crooked cops who think their god.especially I south carolina.no.charleston is the worst
@T. R. Campbell I got stopped two weeks ago & the cop told me I didn’t signal far enough back, which was total BS! I asked him to tell just how much further back I should have signaled so I wouldn’t make the same mistake again & he never would tell me after 3 times of asking him. I’ve never been pulled over by such a jerk in my life!
@T. R. Campbell probably, but he said over & over that he couldn’t breathe & the cops did nothing to give him medical attention. This death could have probably been prevented even if they didn’t actually cause it.
Problem in the states is every cop is armed. Here in Uk only highly trained and psychologically tested individuals are armed and are in a special ARU (Armed Rapid Response Unit) similar to your SWAT teams. Police here carry non lethal protection. Although there has been death by taser but full accountability is also a issue and police officers can be convicted of criminal offence if found to have unlawfully used force in an arrest.
@T. R. Campbell So, without the fentanyl the cop would’ve had to restrict his breathing for…an extra three, or five minutes?
I think the jury will be considering that as well.
@Raymond Stanczak
The fentanyl ingestion is going to be huge. The fentanyl issue could result in finding of not guilty. More than likely there might very well be a plea bargain but if I was the cops attorney I would take this to the mat because the coroners report stated conclusively that Floyd’s body contained a Lethal dose of fentanyl. All the defense has to do is convince one fewer that Floyd’s body had a fatal fentanyl overdose. It takes only one juror.
It makes no difference the amount of time the cop had on Floyd’s neck because it is going to be impossible to prove that the neck restraint caused death. The defense will raise the issue that Floyd would still be alive today if he had not taken a lethal dose of fentanyl.
Science can prove however, that an overdose of fentanyl results a suppressed respiratory system. Coroner stated the post Mortem indicated that Floyd had a fatal (key word here) fatal dose of Fentanyl in his system.
How ya gonna do anything about the small minority of bad cops, when even Pelosi, who backed new security measures, doesn’t even abide by herself this past week. What another for THEE & not ME scenario… She sets a real Good BS EXAMPLE…👌👌😂😂😂
Edwin Bertelmann that is NOT what happened at all, you people are always clueless
@psycobleach46 tullis ok, she didn’t try going by the new capital bldg security measures( that she backed) w/ out doing it herself..👌👌👌😂😂😂😂😂😂sure, sure,OK…
@Edwin Bertelmann and what did she not follow?
@psycobleach46 tullis she’s been accused of bypassing metal detectors put in after supporting for them to be installed, an she had two lawmakers fined for doing the same. Reported by Daily Mail, a not so Republican friendly news outlet…
@Edwin Bertelmann so you have NO actual proof? No you don’t all you have is what some conspiracy follower senator said, and Daily Mail actually leans right.
Democrats policies always sound good in theory. But never work in reality
David Hale NO, that is the republican policies like their trickle down economy
Social Security, Medicare, voting reforms, equality…that’s what we call “reality”.
The police unions, the Catholic church, and the republican party walk into a bar…
