Even 5 years ago I wouldn't have expected I would feel the way I feel these days. At this point I think - I'm still not absolutely certain, but I do think - I would personally beat any person in a video like this to death like Chris Partlow did Michael's dad in The Wire, and feel good about it. I always, always knew this shyt was a common occurrence. Growing up where and how I did, I had cops disrespect the fukk out of me half a dozen times before I hit 20. I've had friends and relatives beaten by police for no good reason. But this shyt is far more vicious and widespread than I ever imagined and it's somehow ratcheting up. I hate living in a country where people don't really give much of a significant fukk that this happens to a specific set of citizens with zero repercussions. The fact this piece of excrement was still an officer and thus Walter Scott was murdered means blood on the hands of every fukking piece of shyt who happily looked the other way when this worthless psychopath perpetuated these violent crimes against innocent citizens. I want acid poured on motherfukkers like this. fukk him, fukk his crying ass mother, and fukk his c00n ass yessa boss we sho gon cover this up good and quick ass partner the day he gunned Walter Scott down, and fukk the South Carolina police department and fukk the governor for defending the state house flying that shyt-rag known as the confederate flag. And fukk this fukking morally bankrupt scumbag country.


We are tired.

Enough is enough. Cops get away with too much, they gonna have to stop treating us like shiit.

They go extra hard on us, and it has to be brought to light.

Me talking to someone about punishment of cops

Here's an idea...if any officer is involved in a shooting and use the "i feared for my life" excuse
they are done patrolling the streets for 12mths, during that year away from the streets they will have to do community relationship building with them...have enhanced situational & weapons training to help with their fears and after the return have to undergo psychological eval/therapy every randomly for the next 2yrs. This way the cop is removed from a stressful work environment, become less desensitized and gets help while improving his skills to become less afraid of losing his life. He also has a chance to still be a public servant to the very people who pay his salary while building trust by actually doing the other aspect of their job which is just as important as being a deterrent.

I was blasted for saying that by muthafukkaz that are cool with everything cops do. So i simply shut it down by saying "If i'm lazy at my job or flat out not very good at it then chances are i'll get fired or never promoted. That's not what happens to most cops...i mean sure they'll get a sucky assignment but mostly they'll get rewarded for bad or shoddy police work. That cop that ran that dude over in AZ is being commended for it...but seriously...didn't he just break a few laws in doing so? He wasn't told to do that [disobeyed order]...then he just cost taxpayers money from damaging the cruiser, wall of that person's house and their vehicle [reckless endangerment, misuse of state property, using vehicle as weapon] which will probably amount to about $60,000. Now do you want to talk about the cops that have been in trouble for robbery, dope dealing and more?

I don't even know why i even try to talk civil with these fukk boys anymore.

how about they get treated the way any citizen who does the same thing, investigated and adjudicated?

That had already came up by someone else and when they kept with the All Cop Everything vibe they were on that's when i suggested it as an option. But believe me...I agree with you on that. They need to know that the people they kill or badly injure have loved ones also. I'm so tire of them doing a lazy job and getting praised for it. Here's the thing that it clear as day IMO... they chose that career...it wasn't forced onto them. So i don't feel i need to praise them for having a "hard job" just like when i was in my military uniform i couldn't stand for people to Thank me for my service. Don't thank me...my dumb ass signed a contract to give my life to protect this country...I made that choice...don't thank me. Let's be real...80% of cops don't have a hard job to do at all.

Prosecutors took the death penalty off the table.

White officer won't face death penalty in South Carolina murder: prosecutor
CHARLESTON, S.C. | Mon Apr 13, 2015 7:31pm EDT

CHARLESTON, S.C. (Reuters) - A white South Carolina patrolman charged with murder for shooting a black man in the back as he fled after a traffic stop will not face the death penalty if convicted, a prosecutor said on Monday.

None of the circumstances that allow lethal punishment apply in the April 4 shooting of 50-year-old Walter Scott by North Charleston police officer Michael Slager, said Scarlett Wilson, Charleston County's chief prosecutor.

"Based on the facts revealed thus far, it does not appear South Carolina's death penalty provision applies in this case because there are no statutory 'aggravating circumstances' present," Wilson said in a statement.

Such factors include murders committed during a kidnapping, robbery, drug trafficking, or with poison or physical torture.


Scott's death reignited a public outcry over police treatment of black Americans that flared last year after the killings of unarmed black men in Ferguson, Missouri, New York City, and elsewhere.

North Charleston fired Slager last week after he was charged with murder in Scott's death. A cellphone video emerged showing him shooting at Scott's back eight times as he ran away.

Slager was being held in Charleston County jail. He could face 30 years to life in prison if convicted.

In police dashboard camera video released Monday evening, Slager can be heard telling a fellow officer after the shooting he didn't understand why Scott ran away.

"I don't understand why he took off like that," Slager said. "I don't understand why he'd run."

In a different case, Slager is accused of using excessive force during an August 2014 traffic stop in North Charleston in a lawsuit filed April 10 by Julius Wilson. Wilson was stopped for driving with a broken taillight, the same offense Scott was pulled over for the day he died.

Wilson says Slager and two other officers pulled him from his vehicle, restrained him face-down on the pavement and Slager fired a stun gun into his back.

A spokesman for the North Charleston police department declined to comment.

Another South Carolina man, Mario Givens, planned to file a lawsuit against Slager after his own complaint of abuse nearly two years ago was dropped after a brief police probe.

Smart move of the prosecutors part. No jury of his "peers" will convict him knowing he could potentially be killed by the state. Additionally, that would set precedent and would turn the justice system on its head.

Exactly, that shyt was not gonna fly at all. Life with no parole is the worst he'll get and hopefully the prosecutor can get that.

Mayor threw that cop in the bushes with the quickness too..... SC don't want those problems.....
Dirty cop went and picked up the taser and put it next to breh's already cadaverous body.
No shame. He would get away with that story too.

no doubt, but I highly doubt a death penalty conviction would happen even though it should. Prosecutor has to try for a verdict that he think he can get. Death Penalty is a LONG shot.
