That guy is such a piece of shit.

responsibility lies almost entirely with the senior leadership. ive never envied beat cops their jobs; most are modern day heroes. im pretty sure like 45% of america has un-treated mental illness and we all love to get fucked up. but when police unions keep bad cops on the street and a culture of militarism arms a…

Open carry apparently only applies to white people.

Why is the matter of if he had a gun or not even relevant? Isn’t NC an open carry state?

Thanks. The law goes into effect October 1, though. Also, FUCK MCCRORY.

If the video showed what the police said, I have a feeling they would have released it by now. Keeping it under wraps make it even more suspicious.

Because North Carolina is doing everything possible to further embarrass this country.

if the footage exonerated our alleged murderer i think it would be released right quick. delaying its release is like stopping the vent in a steam kettle; everyone now knows shit is fucked up. police need to start owning up to their actions and leading with the truth and the steps theyll take to train their dudes not…

It was fucked up but that gal does not need security. She is a BOSS. She elbowed that fucker in the face and went after him like, “WHAT NOW, BITCH??”

What happened to Gigi was FUCKED UP. Thank god she has security.

Absolutely. She’s a piece of shit cop, no question.

Yes, smoking weed makes you a thug.

Way easier conviction.

Yes. How “strange” that a black man, when confronted by a cop, would put his hands in the air. It couldn’t possibly be that he wanted to preemptively signal that he was unarmed, given that so many other black person-cop interactions turn deadly without provocation.

I used to work news camera for a local TV station meaning we covered a lot of car wrecks and you wouldn’t believe the number of people who decided to go out driving after a beer or twelve who had a CHOOSE LIFE bumper sticker or similar on their car. I tried to frame it well when I edited the news later.

just because it’s new to you doesn’t mean it’s new for everyone.

The worst one I keep seeing is “You can’t believe everything protestors say” the implication being that their explanation of events is some how worse than the police’s, which is just fucking ridiculous when we’ve seen how often the police just blatantly lie and obfuscate.

I heard the Charlotte mayor on NPR this morning. When she said she hadn’t seen the video yet, I really wanted Steve Inskeep to ask her if that was reasonable. This is now two days after the event, and in the same span of time, Tulsa has already released its video of the event. Is there any possible excuse for the fact…

“The video doesn’t corroborate our story, but trust us, it’s our story that’s right and not the video. Because video, much like science and the female orgasm, is a just a bunch of lies.”
