After Police Killing Of Unarmed Man, Tulsa Chief Promises To 'Achieve Justice' : The Two-Way : NPR


dumb ass cunt:mad:

So sick of this bs about killing people, regardless of color.

I seriously have no sympathy for cops, sorry...loosing complete respect for them, sad.

Rado, you're focusing on what the media wants you to focus on. How about all the other stories you don't hear in the mainstream media? How about the cops that risk their lives every day? What about the off duty cop who shot and killed the Minnesota mall stabbing suspect? What about the the off-duty NY cop who was hacked with a cleaver in the head by some lunatic? This list goes on and on. Stop focusing on all the negative which the liberal media is shoving down your throat. If you or a loved one is ever in a situation where you need help be sure not to dial 911. Handle it yourself.

So we have to be cool with cops killing and beating on people because we might need their help one day?

I get it bro, I merely typed out of frustration. WE DO HAVE GOOD cops, I know...I have many of them who are good friends of mine and good people.

I just don't like where our country has been going the past 20yrs or so. Times have changed and not for the better.

We're supposed to be the best and we look like clowns to everyone, sad. I can tell you that being an american, something I'm not too proud of these days.

Not saying that at all. They should not be above the law. BUT... the liberal media will only show negative press when it comes to cops. There's a story almost every day of something good coming from their service and do you ever hear about that? No. That's what pisses me off.

Tulsa cop who fatally shot Terence Crutcher thought he was on PCP - NY Daily News

this is what will fuck everything up for the fam...more than likely this person will have some sort of drugs in his system, or perhaps not and I'd hope so. Otherwise the drugs they find(if any)in this person, will be the leverage cops will want/need to escape this bs.

This one seems to be pretty screwed up. watching the video..I don't understand why he was walking away from the cops with his hands up? Then it appears as if he reaches in towards the window.. I cant see why he was shot or what the reason behind it was. The only thing I can imagine by what I see in video..is he was half way complying.,..hands up but may have not listened or complied completely with directions..when they "thought" he was reaching for something they shot? Just no reason for it.. sad day for sure.

Just in enough for cops to justify:agreed:

Im a mailman, should the news report evrytime I do my job correctly? No.

But if I get busted stealing packages or throwing all the mail in the woods somewhere, that is news worthy. Has nothing to do with liberals or conservatives. I think its funny how whenever its a news story about a black victim its always the "liberal media".

Agree, but in this case I don't see this guy was posing a threat

Just in enough for cops to justify:agreed:

There were like 5 cops there with their weapons out. Only one shot. So that tells me that it was a nervous reaction. If it was a legitimate threat don't you think they all would have fired at the same time? They all had the same training.

I agree with you. My point is when's the last thread that was started because of something good a cop did?

I don't see it..but they will try..:agreed:

Today, a few cops showed up to work on time, wrote out a few tickets, responded to a couple of 911 calls, investigated an accident and then went home.

Brought to you by the liberal media, just to balance things out so that we are not accused of only reporting cops who are egregiously violating someone's civil rights.
