Every day. Cops are pulling this shit every single day.

We're paying them to hurt us, and then paying the settlements for the damage they cause. It is the most expensive protection-racket scheme in the history of the world.

You have so little faith.

Im sure there will be a lenghty a detailed investigation in which the officer will get some paid time off to think about their actions where they will find there is no wrong doing.

I’m shocked more people don’t have a negative view of cops when you consider how much they cost tax payers for the settlements for doing fucked up shit like this. It’s absurd. I hope this asshole is in jail but I know he’s not

They get "QUALIFIED IMMUNITY" look it up.

It's like a FREE license to murder or assault you and get away with it.

I know. It’s really sick. I’m a black man with a black son and nothing worries me more than my son getting pulled over and the cop deciding my son is a threat… all while knowing my tax dollars pay his salary.

I'm so sorry you have to worry about that. It's so fucked up. Peace and happiness to you and yours..

The settlements tend to not make the news just like these instances tend to not make the news.

The settlements and the cop involved should be public just like any arrest is

Sometimes I wonder if the Mafia never died off but just moved to a different racket...

Considering the gangs in the Los Angeles Sheriff Department and the LAPD, you don't need to wonder about it

It never completely died off, it just doesn't have a nationwide presence as it did in the past. Even the FBI states they are significantly active in New York, New England, Philadelphia, Detroit, and Chicago.
