Sedan_clan has multiple valid reasons for deciding to move to Arizona. I'm just saying that AB 2088 should probably not be a key reason because it only affects the super rich.

CA taking a play out of the communist ANC playbook I see. You want to leave this fine Country like South Africa or CA in this case. You leave with the clothes on your back..everything else is claimed by The Party.

Latest IE Use of Force issue: Activists are screaming for BOTH officers' jobs/heads. The one officer simply stood there detaining the male.

I still think the female recording threw the first punch, then got all mouthy that she couldn't be detained. Then she certainly resisted.

I’ve been following this one closely. Both were robbery suspects who also assaulted a store employee, so that affects the state of mind of the Deputies involved. The fact that one of the suspects was/is a woman who is allegedly sick with cancer is irrelevant. It didn’t stop her from committing criminal acts so she isn’t immune from being subjected to force either. It annoys me that some people/critics are using her gender/medical condition to effectively give her a pass for her actions.

Oh, so there ARE details from before the camera started rolling. I told my wife as much, and she just walked away when I stated the lady was resisting and only showed right then. No idea what went on before.

This is one crazy Police chase, but after he finally catches the speeder, this white cop says to the black Camaro driver "Get your Monkey ass over here" at the 12:39 mark.
I mean............damn. This wont last long on YouTube.

That audio was bleeped.

I heard "get your fucking ass over here" or maybe "get your punk ass over here."

[///d]

it's definitely monkey ass, now whether or not it was meant to be a racist statement or it came out because he was crawling through a window I can't say. Regardless, it's not going to go over well.

Punk ass is what I heard

What is an officer to do in a situation like this, can only think the Volvo guy was high on something.

So difficult situation, and the Monday morning quarterbacks will have a field day. Solo officer on the side of the road trying to keep the situation calm. I hate to be too critical buy I likely would've escalated to cuffs/taser sooner as it was pretty clear the guy wasn't going to become more cooperative after the first minute or so.

Agree, then he would still be alive..the crazy then ran into road and killed himself after crashing down the bank.

Fargo ND officer was shot and killed few days ago and they are escorting him through my town tomorrow morning on the way to my hometown for his funeral. Unfortunately I will be heading out of town for the funeral, but I'll be able to catch his escort in the morning. Far too young, just swore into the Fargo PD in April. I learned he is the first cousin of a good friend of mine. He was also with the Field Artillery unit that deployed with me this last go around and I recall seeing his name and wondering if he was related to my buddy.

I can already feel the waterworks and I didn't even know him. It doesn't seem to matter if I know them or not, anytime a service member, officer, first responder... any selfless service member passes it always causes it to rain down my face.

Damn! It saddens me each and every time I hear about somebody dying in the line of duty.

I've been to too many police funerals, I can't handle hearing Amazing Grace on the Bag Pipes.

RIP Brother.

Sometimes shit just goes sideways. I feel bad for the driver of the car that hit the guy and I hope the copper doesn't have a rough ride because of the outcome.

The news needs more positive LEO stories like this one.....
