Pigs abusing their power is not political. Nor is reducing the supply of military grade equipment that police forces are being outfitted with.

"These restrictions that had been imposed went too far," U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions told a meeting of the Fraternal Order of Police union
Oh. I forgot about that little cracker.

Qualified immunity has been affirmed by the SCOTUS. Does that supercede state laws barring qualified immunity or does the SCOTUS decision apply only to Federal LE and govt officials?Quote:

That reads like someone is looking to declare victory without winning:Quote:

New Mexico is now the second state to ban qualified immunity, following Colorado which enacted legislation to end the practice in June 2020.
Under New Mexico’s new law, a person has the right to sue the state, a city, or county, when their rights under the state’s constitution have been violated
The doctrine was invented by SCOTUS and to my layman's eye it looks like a straight up violation of statutory law. Every time someone whines about judicial activism I re-read the wiki entry just to make sure I don't live too long with low blood pressure:

Saw that. Happened in December. I hope the guy ends up being a wealthy Army lutenant. Apparently he had heard things about the local popo.
Let us hope this is the first crack in a Blue Wall:
Maryland on Saturday became the first state in the nation to repeal its powerful Law Enforcement Officers Bill of Rights after the state’s Democratic-majority legislature overrode Republican Gov. Larry Hogan’s vetoes of three historic police accountability bills.
Hogan announced Friday that he was vetoing the three bills — part of a package of five police reform measures passed by state lawmakers earlier in the week. The governor said he would allow two of the bills to become law without his signature but said the others would “further erode police morale, community relationships and public confidence.”
But Democrats, who hold veto-proof majorities in both the state House and Senate, vowed to override Hogan’s vetoes — a promise they promptly fulfilled, with lawmakers gathering Friday night and Saturday to make it happen.

Look at all the conflicting orders.Quote:

Officer 1 = “Keep both hands where I can see them !”

Officer 1 = “I said Keep both hands where I can see them !”
Officer 2 = “I said Get out of the car !”
——- again, it is not humanly possible to obey both Officers orders due to seatbelts and door latches.
Policing in America is so fucked up.

Right?? I had the same reaction. Two roided aggro cops yelling. I would have done what he did. Keep both hands out the window. What else can you do? Reaching for the door latch or seatbelt will get you shot.Quote:

The idea is--one officer tells the victim to do something that will give the other officer an excuse to shoot him. Children should not be allowed to play with guns.Quote:

Notice how the guy automatically assumes he's a specialist or corporal? Why is that? I'll tell you why. Because he's black.
Can you explain this further?Quote:

The overwhelming majority of Commissioned Officers in the military are white males from upper middle class families. The guy (who is a vet) assumes he couldn't be an Officers because he's black.Quote:
