    Yeah, you could be right, but the cops had more to lose if they committed crimes, and that in and of itself is a deterrent.

    Did you live in the projects?

    The harsh reality is the TSA approach to screening cannot applied to policing the nation. There are more cops placed where crime is heaviest because it is more effective at stopping crimes and victimization. To suggest criminals are victimized just for being criminals doesn't carry a lot of weight, so criminals in high crime black areas scream racism. This falls largely on deaf ears.

    There are a lot of drugs on campuses across the US, probably where you got your experience. These areas are not too heavily policed for such generally because those people are well on their way to being productive members of society in a very liberal environment for the most part. You can argue class if you want, but if you want to argue race, show me that black colleges are more heavily policed.

    I am for legalization btw.

    People liberals claim to help don't ever seem satisfied, do they? I mean, the black population has been voting 'D' forever (!) and yet they're the ones rioting time and time again. And it's not just blacks. OWS, Rodney King, Walker's WI, Furgeson, Baltimore, Chicago, etc. And let's not overlook the greenies who like to touch cars or PETA either. All liberal's and all violent to one extent or another. Yet, they're the ones who always get a victim hug from the MSM & never labeled extremist. Kinda ass backwards, isn't it?

    So you are saying that you smoked pot in front of cops and they just ignored you because you were white? Really?

    Because of all the stories only two incidents are mentioned that are detrimental to those cops. One was because the officer allowed someone to escape from a hospital. The other was because his gf said she feared for his safety because of some comments he had made.

    And criminal records are public record. The liberal media would have plastered any criminal conduct by those officers everywhere if they had a record. Just like, other than fox, they're suppressing Grays EXTENSIVE record.

    Baltimore is safer without that piece of trash on the street.

    I even had a under cover cop once warn me that he was a under cover narcotics agent when I was mentioning some people getting high once .... would he of treated me different if I was black I can not say

    was funny, turned out to be a group of about 20 drug enforcement agents, I will not say what event I was at when this accrued, but it was a week long event, and trust me, cops have no issues drinking

    mostly prohibition related crimes, I could care less about those, I think those are what actually led him down the path of crime

    Lol so your position is if we didn't have our prohibition laws that this piece of trash would have been a law abiding upstanding citizen?

    It's not the fact this guy is a piece of (*)(*)(*)(*), but it's our prohibition laws that are the problem.

    It's funny I lived under those prohibition laws, black friends of mine grew up under those prohibition laws and NONE of us turned into walking piles of criminal feces like this putz.

    Maybe you should have read the article rather than stopping at the headline and speculating the rest.

    I was giving you a taste of your own hypocrisy. You chastise another poster for assuming something then go on to assume the officers want her to step down because of the indictments and arrests. Lovely bit of hypocrisy you've got going there brother.

    you're, not your. :)

    Here's a bit of reality for you. The WBAL interview with officer Jeff took place on Thursday May 30. The charges against the officers came the day after that.

    Harrassed?
    Police harrassment != policing heavy crime areas.

    Let me try to put this in terms I think you will get. When someone identifies themselves as a conservative, you have a visceral reaction. You flip a switch which activates the trivium. Your grammar improves. Your logic hones. Your rhetoric is birthed. This is in no small part due to your time in places such as this. Your day in day out experience places you in a position of command and comfort within the paradigm you are comfortable in and good at. It doesnt matter that I hate the GOP. You dont really care the particulars of my beliefs... chances are they are diametrically opposed yours. At least enough of them are. Right and wrong dont really matter. Winning does.

    Now lets make you empowered by the state as an authority. Lets give you a gun, and the realization that all those gun touting conservatives see you as the enemy, and will absolutely kill you if they think they can get away with it. Now understand that you are charged with the safety of those conservatives. You are charged with ousting and seeking punishment of those conservatives who violate your principals. Day after day you see the result of the mayonaise sandwich eating rednecks violence. Beating their wives, beating their children, beating eachother. Rape. Meth. Murder.

    How objective are you now? Do you look at a guy with a mullet and a wife beater and jacked teeth and think... I wonder what he's all about?

    Or do you kick trivium?

    Cops are people. Poor blacks are people. Conservatives are people. How well do you lead by example? How unbiased are you?

    Yea your right because they had no idea that these officers were going to be charged. Did they want her to step down before this incident occurred?

    A cop's job is to protect and serve, not injure and murder suspects, and in this case, the man wasn't even a suspect and should never have been arrested, so we have yet another example of rogue law enforcement at work.
    Way to defend the indefensible.

    Officer Jeff made his reasons very clear. It's odd that you can't recognize that, and still don't know the difference between your and you're.

    I bet you still believe the planted story that he deliberately rammed his head against the wall so that he could break his own spine.

    Yeah, that was one whale of a planted story.

    She'd be replaced by someone no different. Baltimore is a "chocolate city."

    Exactly! Under her administration they cut the Diamond Standard training program for Police which is "based on the military experience in Iraq and combines more realistic tactical training with an emphasis on community policing".

    And you probably believe his spine was broken because of a sharp turn.

    How hard would it be for a man who is handcuffed to sever his own spine?

    Alert.....grammar police in the building. :wierdface:

    You're correct though. "Your" is possessive. "You're" is a contraction for you are.

    Just saying.......carry on. :wink:

    just his hands are handcuffed, or both his hand and legs are restrained?
