Honestly I just wanted to make this topic to disgust my hatred for the current police force. Police, everyday, abuse their power. They kill people, dogs, and other animals just because they can.

I'm going to try to put this thread together well so it's easy to read.

We have seen this been circling around quite a lot, and unfortunately, it is very horrifying.


The victim in the video "Eric Garner" had stated that the officer had just found reasons to harass him over and over again. He accused the man of something different every day. It took a tragic turn when he then accused him of selling cigarettes. The officer then, began to get physical. He started putting hands on the man (who in the video shows him doing nothing wrong) and tried to detain him. When failed, he called for backup. Another officer had then used an illegal tactic called a "choke hold". The man later died. Autopsy show that it was the cause of death.

The officer was cleared of all charges and suspended.

Now. There are so many things wrong with that. He used an illegal tactic to detain a HUMAN being. Now, if I'm not mistaking, police are not above the law. So where in their right mind do they think that a slap on the wrists is enough. I believe he should have been charged with 1st Degree Murder. He had planned to use the tactic knowing it was illegal.



Police every day kill dogs.


Now how does that justify this.

Every day cops kill animals but if we shoot a dog, they throw the book at us.




I want a simple discussion about this. I do not want this topic to get heated.

I purposely posted this here because I do not consider it a rant, only a discussion. I would've posted it in the rant section if I thought it suited it.

WOW. That poor dog made my heart drop. May they both RIP.

I think this is stupid as hell. Yes, they definitely abuse their power and most get no punishment for it all.

Honestly, this is why I want to leave the US and start my family somewhere else.. I don't care if other countries aren't as free as we are but at least I wouldn't have to worry about my kids or family getting killed/hurt by the LAW.

My heart dropped when they shot the dog aswell.

BUT

The way i see it, if Rosby(The guy getting arrested) would stop giving smart ass remarks and only turned down his music in his car as he was told to, none of this would of happened. The officers need to hear whats going on with the armed robbery call that they were barricading.

Yes the dog was protecting his loved owner, but if he turned his music down in his car the first time, the officers wouldnt have him handcuffed and the dog wouldnt ever went after the cops.

I believe in morality. There needs to be certain times when and when not to follow the law. Yes he was being a distraction but I believe he was getting ready to leave when the cops involved themselves. There was no reason for them to take him into hand cuffs.
