The government can go over all of the officers film footage for things such as rolling through stop signs, small laws broken, speeding infractions, and anything that violates policy whatsoever and charge him with anything possible. The system is so corrupt even the people inside the system cannot stand up agains it Their pension is targeted and few will stand up unless their pension is already locked in and they have “nothing to lose” in their life Going against the system is similar to deciding to stop breathing air You can do it You may succeed- But it won’t work out for you or anyone who helped you.

When he heard us respond, he attempted to escape by hopping out of a 3-story window. He landed pretty badly on a cinderblock wall. Longstory short, he was also paralyzed from the waist down. We charged him for the above stated charges along with a few others.. And the community had the nerve to blame us for him jumping out of the window 😂. The scumbag committed multiple felonies. No one forced him to jump out of the window. He could've just surrendered the easy way. So why feel sorry for him? So, unless you guys witnessed the altercation, don't be so quick to judge.

[@TheMangoMussolini]

It's a sad thing to say in Amerika, but when the cops can't be trusted and act like wild animals, then it is time for the citizens to take their streets back, both for self-defense and the public safety. When the system fails to remove threats to public safety IMMEDIATELY then the populace must take the responsibility and do it themselves. Both in common law and in most state statutes, private citizens are authorized to use force, including deadly force, to protect the lives of others who are in imminent danger of loss of life or limb. Cops that brutalize citizens by overreacting or just sheer malice, should be stopped by whatever means by any citizen capable of doing so.
