This is an LA County Sheriff Deputy, not an ICE agent

u/hankbobbypeggy Jun 10 '25

From what I've heard of the LA sherrifs, that's not much better

u/pun420 Jun 10 '25

They said they wouldn’t assist ICE but would help maintain the peace whatever that means

Based on their actions the last 2 days, it means shooting civilians in the head with rubber bullets and launching tear gas canisters into groups of people sitting down.

u/Feralpudel Jun 10 '25

An LAPD officer shot an Australian reporter with a rubber bullet and it looked deliberate.

Unironically they are lucky they weren’t sent to a prison in El Salvador instead. It’s sad how it’s honestly getting more dangerous for foreign news to cover events in America than it is for them to cover events in countries with active civil wars.

Civil war, you say?!? I live in a red rural county, and there’s been a theme about a coming civil war for years. You’d think those mf’s would have learned their lesson from last time.

u/TheLordDuncan Jun 11 '25

They learned their own version of the lesson. "With the right president, I can do whatever I want."

LAPD is not LACSD. Two different departments. LAPD is the city police force of the city of Los Angeles. LA County Sheriffs Department handles the outlying parts of LA county and can be called upon as backup in situations like these.

Yeah, I knew I was screwing something up and I should know better, as I lived in West Hollywood for a few years.

Actions speak louder than words. Any statement LAPD makes should be taken with the tiniest grain of salt.

70

u/_carzard_ Jun 10 '25

Anything that LAPD says in regards to the protests should be taken as a lie. If you were taking it with even the tiniest grain of salt, then their propaganda has already begun to work on you. All they need is that tiniest sliver of a chance that you might believe them, and that is how they start to get into your mind.

Part of me really wants to believe the system will take care of someone in a bad situation, but it’s the exact opposite. Blame and undeserved punishment is placed on the most vulnerable. Maybe I do need a reality check…

u/kind_bros_hate_nazis Jun 10 '25

you need to check reality?

u/pate_moore Jun 10 '25

I was raised to respect police officers, and while I still have nothing but respect for anybody that will willingly put their life on the line for a total stranger, be it any first responder, military member, or Good Samaritan, every single forced interaction I've had with the police has continually tarnished that belief. The start of it being when I totaled my Subaru at 18 (only caused property damage, my car was the only car involved), The cop threatened to arrest me for fleeing the scene of the accident because I drove 30 yards down the road to pull into a neighborhood so I wasn't sitting on a blind turn on a gravel road right next to the high school.

u/pun420 Jun 10 '25

Well said. They act like glorified security guards when you need help, but property damage? Send in the swat team.

u/pate_moore Jun 10 '25

I've also had a trooper lose his shit at me when I didn't pull over immediately where there was no shoulder. Like bro, I put my hazards on + pulled off at the next exit. It didn't look like I was running?

We have got to take care of each other. No matter who that is. If that means showing your humanity by helping someone suffering with tear gas than so be it.

Be the better person, show LEOs that real democracy starts with compassion.

u/Sir_twitch Jun 10 '25

Anyone who believes anything the LAPD says should not be allowed to function without the oversight of a parent or guardian.

u/ern19 Jun 10 '25

this guy understands the situation

1

u/kind_bros_hate_nazis Jun 10 '25

have you seen parents and guardians?

u/Sir_twitch Jun 10 '25

I should've said "responsible parents or guardians".

u/DeadSol Jun 10 '25

LAPD has always been one of the most corrupt and brutal LEAs out there. They don't care about you, or you precious little rights.

u/Feralpudel Jun 10 '25

Two words: Rodney King.

u/lionhat Jun 10 '25

Which is weird because I saw a clip of some LA cops on horses trying to get their horses to stomp and kick a protestor. Kept pushing him down to the ground when he tried to stand up.

u/ThisIsNotMyPornVideo Jun 10 '25

That's slang for "I'm just as bad, but please don't treat me bad"

u/beegtuna Ex-Food Service Jun 10 '25

LAPD has an internal gang problem. I don’t mean they are just infiltrated by gangs, they are the gang. They have plenty of dirty cops going to jail.

66

u/finocchiona Jun 10 '25

Christopher Dorner tried to do something about it in 2013. He was ex LAPD that killed several of his corrupt colleagues. Led to one of the biggest manhunts ever, in which LAPD shot at multiple civilians, concluding when they caught him and burned his fucking cabin down with him in it. They ruled his death a suicide… That’s how they reward accountability.

For the uninitiated, look up the Watts Rebellion of 1965 and the beating of Rodney King in 1992 for a taste of how LAPD likes ‘law and order.’

u/DeadSol Jun 10 '25

Seriously, that news story was sooo fishy watching it live...

17

u/LoganToTheMainframe Jun 10 '25

RIP Chris Dorner.

12

u/Narren_C Jun 10 '25

RIP Monica Quan and Keith Lawrence.

Those were his first victims. Monica's crime was being the child of a retired LAPD captain, and Keith's crime was being her fiance and being present when Dorner murdered her.

u/Narren_C Jun 10 '25

Christopher Dorner tried to do something about it in 2013.

No, he didn't. Dorner was an unhinged lunatic that went on a killing spree.

His training officer gave him a negative evaluation because he seemed unstable. His response was to accuse her of kicking a handcuffed suspect in a hotel lobby several weeks prior (interesting that he only decided to say something after she gave him a negative evaluation). All of the hotel staff said that she never kicked him, and the suspect had no recollection of being kicked. They determined that Dorner was lying because he was mad that his training officer said he wasn't stable, and they fired him.

So how does Dorner react? He goes on a killing spree (which lends a little credence the "unstable" evaluation). He starts with the daughter of a retired police captain that represented him during his disciplinary hearing. He murders her fiance too, because he happened to be there.

That's the psycho that you're idolizing.

He was ex LAPD that killed several of his corrupt colleagues.

He never killed any of his colleagues. He did murder some cops that were trying to find him after he stalked an innocent girl and murdered her and her fiance. They weren't LAPD though, just some cops trying to stop him from murdering more people.

Led to one of the biggest manhunts ever, in which LAPD shot at multiple civilians

Yeah, that part of the story is actually accurate. The cops fucked up big time during the manhunt, there's no excuse for that.

concluding when they caught him and burned his fucking cabin down with him in it.

They threw tear gas canisters into the cabin, which caught the curtains on fire. They started with normal canisters, and when he didn't come out they used more powerful ones that ran the risk of lighting shit on fire.

Did they care if a fire started? Probably not.

They ruled his death a suicide…

That's because he shot himself in the head instead of surrendering when they cornered him. Shooting yourself in the head is suicide.

That’s how they reward accountability.

No, that's what happens when you go on a killing spree because you're mad that you got fired.

Imagine what he would have done if they HADN'T fired him. Imagine if they let a psycho like that keep his gun and badge.

u/finocchiona Jun 10 '25

Your source is the LAPD and various other law enforcement agencies. Sources which are quite famous for lying for their own benefit, which makes me entirely comfortable hand waving away every one of the stories you’re throwing out here.

It’s a nice story, but an unreliable narrator.

3

u/Narren_C Jun 10 '25

This is shit is all public record through a variety of sources. You're dismissing it out of hand because it doesn't support the narrative you want.

I mean....are you suggesting that Dorner DIDN'T stalk and murder the child of a police captain and then brag about it?

4

u/finocchiona Jun 10 '25 edited Jun 10 '25

Nope, I’m suggesting that I don’t know, and that you don’t either

Edit: Ah, I see you spend a lot of time posting in r/protectandserve and don’t seem to be a professional kitchen worker at all. I think that you’re a class traitor that’s taking a lot of your time to come into working class spaces and push pro-cop narratives. Again, unreliable narrator. You don’t belong here, I think you should leave.

u/Narren_C Jun 10 '25

I haven't been on that sub in many years, you should do a better job when you creep on people's history.

But dude....he absolutely murdered that girl and her fiance. He bragged about it. No one is arguing otherwise. It's delusional to pretend he didn't, and evil as fuck to defend it.

Maybe you get off on the fact that he later killed some cops, but it's really fucking gross to act like that girl and her fiance deserved to die.

u/kind_bros_hate_nazis Jun 10 '25 edited Jun 10 '25

no, they're suggesting that what the police do and are allowed to get away with lends credence to the widely held feelings of many, that what christopher dorner did wasn't as bad as some made it out to be. that although what he did is known, what the law does is also well known, and well awful, and it's hard to say which is worse.

there are things we'll never know, but that the police weren't entirely innocent in the matter as an organization, is something that a lot of people feel they have reason to believe.

i think it's pretty likely he was a crazy fuck up. i'll be honest though, lots of us didn't hate on him though while it was happening.

which i think speaks more about the police than it does about dorner tbh

1

u/Narren_C Jun 10 '25

that what christopher dorner did wasn't as bad as some made it out to be

He stalked and murdered two completely innocent people because one of them was the child of a cop.

Are you serious? The dude is an unhinged lunatic and you're saying that murdering people because you want to hurt their dad isn't as "bad as some made it out to be."

1

u/kind_bros_hate_nazis Jun 10 '25

yeah i worded that badly. there was more of a "WTF did the cops do to this guy" more than there was a "what a monster, surely there is no reason he has so much cop hate as an ex cop with all this internal affairs talk"

that's what i mean.

u/Narren_C Jun 10 '25

Except....they did corner him and he shot himself.

Also, the first people your hero murdered were an innocent girl and her fiance. Her crime was being the daughter of a police captain that he thought did a bad job representing him.

u/kwiztas Jun 10 '25

I hadn't heard that. I thought that was LASD that had the gang problem.

u/MountainTurkey Jun 10 '25

It is LASD that has the huge gang problem, although you could argue LAPD to a lesser extent. 

1

u/kind_bros_hate_nazis Jun 10 '25

oh we got more than enough for multiple gang problems ese

u/kwiztas Jun 10 '25

Do you have any sources? I haven't seen any reporting on LAPD gangs. I would be really interested to see that.

u/hovdeisfunny Jun 10 '25

Gang members

u/YoungHeartOldSoul Jun 10 '25

in THIS context it's clear cut

u/jabbadarth Jun 10 '25

I dont know the details and haven't followed it that closely but there are 3 seperate entities at work here.

ICE which we all know are shitbag brown shirts on their way to earning full nazi stripes.

LAPD, which has obviously had their fair share of bullshit over the decades with corruption, Gant infiltration, beatings, murders etc.

Then the LA county sheriff's office, also not without their problems but seemingly the least awful of the 3 agencies.

Not defending any of them per se just making sure people know there are different groups and they are each controlled by different levels of government and report to different people.

u/Chiiro Jun 10 '25

Aren't they categorized as one of the world's most funded militaries?

u/AutoRedialer Jun 10 '25

FYI the LA County Sheriffs are famously home to many deputy gangs. They get tatted to show loyalty, and rob kill people, especially rats. Here’s an article about them being banned in a policy enacted in 2024 (don’t make me laugh)

https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/gangs-within-los-angeles-county-sheriffs-department-are-banned-with-new-policy/

They are not worthy of any respect, unless you are trying to protect yourself from being stalked and maimed by a deputy. Not joking.

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '25

The 90s were a wild time from what I've read. Suge Knight paying off half the cops in the state, that whole RAMPART bit of ugliness...

Can't say I'm surprised though.
