YO Minny....WTF?
Why you so racist?
You'd think the perpetual snow and fine Nordic womens would keep these pasty Viking bastards from constantly fookin' up, but nope. Minny gonna Minny.
When did Minny become such a retched hive of scum and villainy? Christ guys....we already have an Alabama, Georgia and Florida and they really are nothing to aspire too.
Peoples need to start purifying themselves in the waters of Lake Minnetonka or something. Maybe eat some Lefse pancakes and chill out you white pricks.
April 26th, 1992. There was a riot on the streets, tell me where were you?

The problem is pervasive and exceeds Individual situations and states at this point. There clearly is a pattern of excessive force that is used by individuals of varying departments across the country. A big part of the problem is the “quality” of candidates departments go for and their lack of validity with their background/screening process. Cops who are power trippin’ with an attitude with no regard for human life should be sniffed out before even becoming hired on. Clearly their hiring process is flawed.
As some of you may know, I’ve undergone hiring/background processes with LEA’s and I can speak first hand to how terrible of a job they do. Their background interviews are a complete joke completed by half-wit former cops who are past their prime. During the background interviews is when they first start “testing” their candidates to see how much they can be pushed. My interview was several hours long after they spent 45 minutes arguing with me that I had to have smoked pot at some point in my life when I told them I never smoked. I had mentioned to them that I would admit if I ever have since I knew it wouldn’t disqualify me as a candidate but that smoking was never appealing to me and that my vices were women and booze. They apparently either didn’t believe my answer or were using the situation to test me. If the latter is the case, save that schit for the academy. After passing the background interview, the oral board interview, scoring in the 99th and 100th percentiles in physical and written tests respectively, having a mile long list of references, a clean background, and having a grandfather as a former captain for the department and 3 uncles as police officers all with squeaky clean records, you’d think I would be a shoe in candidate. Nope. They hired 4 other people.
Anyway, as dogfish would say, play stupid games, win stupid prizes. That saying partly fits here because it sounds like the victim was resisting arrest for quite some time and couldn’t be forced into the back of the car. If you don’t resist arrest, this degree of force will not be used. Especially as a black man... you really don’t resist arrest... and it absolutely isn’t fair but is risking your life to prove a point really worth it?
With that said, still clearly an example of excessive use of force. If the police struggled getting him into the car another strategy should have been employed (more officers, de-escalation, etc). I wonder what they were hoping to achieve through restraint and asphyxiation. That got him into the back of another kind of car and will get them locked in the can. Thoughts and prayers to the victims family and friends... and let this be a fukkkin wake up call to LEA’s across the country.

Just another case of "it ain't nothin', s'long as you didn't kill nobody white."
People keep asking, when is this gonna' stop? I think it isn't gonna' stop. It ain't logical, but some peeps is gonna' continue to resist arrest even though that's inevitably a losing proposition. And some peeps continue to threaten and or shoot at cops, even though that never ends well. Cops be skerred, and who can blame 'em? They mostly just want to go home safe at the end of their shift. Most, I say, cuz there are some like Streamer referenced above, sometimes former military, or not, who just wanna' kill 'em all, and let God sort 'em out.
Most cops are good cops. But there are some bad cops. Always have been and always will be, regardless of screening and training. The formula for survival is pretty simple: don't be threatening or shooting at cops or resisting arrest. And hope you don't encounter a bad cop or a good cop having a bad day.

The thin blue line brotherhood is total BS and a poor excuse for inaction (or for the Cops...a great, fantastic excuse for inaction). It's always US vs THEM and as a civil servant, if that's how you lead into any situation, you are going to keep having bad times. Good cops (+ Police Unions) covering for bad cops is how we've gotten to this point amiright? The public at large is always going to be full of idiots of some form or another. That's why we have cops to begin with. Cops, being the civil servants that they are, MUST be held to a higher standard than the public at large and unfortunately they are not, from neither an intellectual nor ethical level. They're just uneducated, sometimes racist goons with guns and badges these days. The really, truly good cops can't come forward or they'd be ostracized. That is what needs to change first. The 2nd thing to accomplish would be doubling the sentence or fines for when cops break the laws they were hired to uphold. Kinda like they double ding us from speeding in a construction zone. They should know better, are paid to know better and need to suffer more severe consequences as a result. As far as I'm concerned, all 4 of those Minny cops should get the death penalty. But...they won't. They'll get rehired into another department somewhere, get their back pay and it'll be like this never even occured. Just like it always does. It's not going to change for the people until a government entity actually hangs a cop in the town square. Sad.

I was watching the show COPS years ago and these guys in some urban hellhole,maybe Phoenix or Houston ,whatever,kept using the saying "going after the bad guys". So who were they arresting? Impoverished inner city folk,low level drug users and prostitutes,homeless people,uneducated folk,you know,the BAD GUYS. The plebs.
I guarantee you,more cops are chasing bad guys than are protecting and serving their community.

Don't diss Lefse or any of the Vikings here. I think Prince came back from the dead. Appolonia skinny dipped in Lake Minnetonka. Saw Purple Rain for the 20th time a couple of moths ago. Peace out!
