Innocent man shot in his own driveway by officers

Oh wow, this police officer need be fired. :ugh:
 
Those officers apparently did not have as much firearms training as the teachers in Arkansas got.

I doubt that will happen. Like someone said what if the guy was deaf?
A cop was once directing traffic and I did not do as he told me and the cop came up to my car and yelled " are you deaf or something!" I said " No, I am HOH!" Boy did that cop face get red.
 
Way more than the third, I hear about things much worse than this all the time that don't make it into the mainstream media. Try a woman sexually assaulted by a court marshall (while at court for some routine divorce issue) and then ignored by the judge as she tries to tell her (the judge) what happened and arrested for "allegations against an officer". In this case, IF the officers are telling the truth then it's an iffy situation. I'm glad I don't have to decide who to believe.

What if you WERE deaf and something happened? That's why the scene from Switched At Birth when Emmett gets arrested (shown from his perspective with no sound) really freaked me out...because I know how realistic it is and don't trust police officers. There is way too much lack of training, stupidity, corruption and ego in law enforcement. Things are getting way out of hand in this country.
 
it happens more often than news would report...hell it even happens in NZ!...
 
What I think is that the cops don't trust anyone so they have to defend themselves at all times because they don't want to die in the line of duty. In other words, they are paranoid.

Remember one black deaf lady who called 911 ran to a cop who tasered her. Why? Because the cop was paranoid so he failed to make a good judgement. Sad!

Rialto, CA Police Made to Wear Cameras, Use of Force Drops by Over Two-Thirds - informationliberation

Now, some police departments are using miniaturized video cameras and their microphones to capture, in full detail, officers' interactions with civilians. The cameras are so small that they can be attached to a collar, a cap or even to the side of an officer's sunglasses. High-capacity battery packs can last for an extended shift. And all of the videos are uploaded automatically to a central server that serves as a kind of digital evidence locker.

Last year, Mr. Farrar used the new wearable video cameras to conduct a continuing experiment in his department, in collaboration with Barak Ariel, a visiting fellow at the Institute of Criminology at the University of Cambridge and an assistant professor at Hebrew University.

THE Rialto study began in February 2012 and will run until this July. The results from the first 12 months are striking. Even with only half of the 54 uniformed patrol officers wearing cameras at any given time, the department over all had an 88 percent decline in the number of complaints filed against officers, compared with the 12 months before the study, to 3 from 24.

When cops in a Rialto, California were forced to wear cameras, their use of force dropped by over two-thirds. Additionally, the officers who were not made to wear the cameras used force twice as much as those who did. This strongly suggests the majority of the time police use force is unnecessary. In other words, the majority of the time these officers used force they were simply committing acts of violence which they don't feel comfortable committing if it's captured on film.
