Wanted to talk about this because two recent occurrences are the perfect examples.
1.The black army officer who got pulled over and pepper sprayed. This smug ass clown did countless things wrong, intentionally and repeatedly and the police handled it almost perfectly despite how he was behaving. In watching the full video you can see the officers gradually de-escalate force from gun to taser to pepper spray, all while he continues to argue and resist.
Last I checked one of the officers was already fired and the smug "victim" had an appointment with the governor to talk police reform.
2.Recent shooting everyone's talking about. Still waiting on details but in this case looks like the female officer accidentally shot the poor innocent resisting arrest good boy.
So basically:
-Constant, vicious propaganda war against police.
-Even when police do everything right they can still get their lives ruined if the criminal is black.
-Brianwash blacks into thinking cops are "hunting them in the streets".
-Now both blacks and cops are on edge from the start.
-Cops having to decide between self defense now or getting publicly crucified later if criminal is black.
-Cops who see this move away from black areas or retire; why would any even slightly intelligent cop ever risk policing around black populations?
-Leftover diversity hire accidentally shoots dindu-nuffin when she meant to taser.
-Cycle continues to get worse and worse.
Just needed to vent about this really. Manufactured and tiresome. What do you guys think?
Ohio is a blue state, Akron, Cincinnati, and other blue hubs are pretty much like Baltimore as far as crime goes.
Ohio is a blue state?
Really?
Please go look at how many points Trump won it by in 2020. Ohio is a red state.
By this logic what state would even qualify as a red state? Only Wyoming or Alabama?
FYI I was not talking about the metro hubs in Ohio. I lived in a completely red county in Ohio that went heavily for Trump and I saw the same police behavior as seen in blue cities there.
Which again, goes against every experience I’ve had with with Michigan red areas and sheriffs. However I will cede that Ohio is Redder since the initial Trump run. I believe if you look at the sheriffs that have stood up against redundant laws throughout the years is entirely due to them being elected versus a political puppet for the city council.
I think I have an explanation for why some red sheriffs in MI resisted.
It is probably due to the politics of resisting Democrat Gretchen Whitmer.
I agree with you that sheriffs foster accountability. We need less puppets for the city council and more accountability.
