well, doesn't appear to be "racist"...but wow.
Sh*t training. Why the F would ANYONE, let alone a trained officer, unlawfully and FOOLISHLY......open someone's car door without permission, and surprise them like that?
If someone did that to you....how long do you think it would take you to figure out that it was a police officer, and not, say, a carjacker.....when it's nighttime?
Moron. That's a full on training failure. Systemic. Or, he was trained, and broke the SOP.
There is something wrong with this, the officer witnessed the car and teenager in a previous incident, the teen attempts to evades the police, not obeying an officer, even threatening bodily harm and no one is questioning the actions of the teen. Sure you can make a case of over reacting, but this boldness to break the law with complete disregard for society norms is the big problem we are facing. Excusing actions by DA results in exactly why crime is rising. There is no accountable actions of the teen, the DA does not enforce the law, and we quickly hang out the police officer. If you wondering why police are leaving the field in record numbers, look no further, blame the police that is in charge of security, and turn blind eye to what the crime that was broken. This kid is not in the right.
Cops in the US have well over 350 million interactions/responses to situations per year. As bad as this was, this is not the norm, not even close in the US. Based on percentages this is an extremely rare occurrence. It is an exception not the rule. Sadly your post shows you've been duped by the media to believe cops are bad. That couldn't be further from the truth. The war on cops is real in this country and why crime is skyrocketing throughout the US, specifically in Democrat run cities. This is what happens when you want to defund the police.
