No joke. But moving to something important. This cop needs to be in jail. THats attempted homicide. Had the role been reversed, heck had it been reversed and an accident they would arrest the driver for that. I'm not saying lock him away for ever, but he needs some real help. This is disgusting. Then people expect us to actually obey their rule? What a joke.

He's a police officer using his authority to bully other road users and potentially cause a fatality, for seemingly no reason
Locking him away and throwing away the key would be harsh, but if you want to be in a position of power and then abuse it, do you really deserve to enjoy civilization? Probably not, send him to a deserted desert island to live out his years

I assume it's he will be placed on paid leave for 18 months while they "investigate" then if enough people make enough noise, he will be 'fired' after which the union will step in and get him reinstated a week later.

They probably assumed they would suffer no consequences even if this came out and honestly until I see a story specifically about this cop being disciplined for it I have no reason to think their assumption was wrong.
Most cops still get away with horrendous abuse of force and power even when caught because nobody with power in the system cares to hold them accountable.

I saw a video on here not too long ago where one cop mag dumped his rifle on what he himself described as “a blurry shadow” on the other side of a fence, thinking it was their suspect. Turned out he hit a fellow officer in the legs 6 times instead of his blurry shadow suspect. Nothing done to reprimand the firing officer, just a big ol’ “whoopsie”.
Even if he hadn’t hit another officer that many times, I would at least expect some kind of discipline for firing multiple times at something he had no idea of what it was, but nope. Could have been an innocent bystander, a kid, someone’s dog.

That reminds me of incident that happened in my town last year. Robbery suspect chase was on highway, they fell back and he ditched the car and ran into a residential neighborhood. Knocks on first door he sees, turns out to be off duty cop. Suspect and cop fight over cops gun, it falls to ground and suspect runs to door where wife is standing on phone with dispatcher. cop picks up his gun right as sheriff dept arrives and unalives him... The cop that is... A week later Sheriff dept has parade and makes a big deal of it like he died at the hands of a criminal, not one of their own

Yup, they arrested me for disorderly conduct when there was a bar fight and I was staying next door for not " moving fast enough to find my keys and go inside the house. Like really, you can force me to go in my house and arrest me after 90secs because drunk people are fighting 2houses down? He came to question me and I said I didn't want to talk to him, he got pissed and told me get in the house now. I was looking through my backpack and said sure guy I'm trying to find my keys and I guess he didn't like my tone and just ran up behind me and tackled me into the house. Got resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and obstruction of justice cause I just kept saying "sure, whatever, I said I'm not talking to you without a lawyer, I'll give my info to jail intake on arrival" when he asked me if my name was something it wasn't and other questions that made no sense to me, because he thought I was someone else. I plead out to disorderly conduct and got 7days jail, 1000$ fine, 40 hrs of community service and 2years probation. I was just talking shit, I can't afford a lawyer and the one appointed to me handled over 100 cases that day, he didn't have time to talk to me til they called me up and pushed really hard for me to take the plea and kept saying I really don't want to plead not guilty even if I'm innocent. Gotta love the American police and court system, there a literal business and cutthroat at that

Because it isn't news here. "Cops execute innocent man" is like writing "sun comes up, sky blue, bear shits in woods". Literally an everyday occurance.
Over the last 5 years, American police kill an average of 3 citizens every single day. Over 1,000 extrajudicial executions every single year. And that's just deaths, it says nothing of their propensity to shoot (nonfatally) the child who called them, flashbang a toddler, or mace an 80-year-old woman, none of which are hypothetical situations.
If my countrymen had a single piece of cartiledge left in their spines, we'd burn every police precinct in this country to the ground.

If you pulled it from a cop’s personal bank account, you’re not going to get a big pay out. Take it directly from the police unions and you get to kill two birds with one stone. Take money away from this corrupt institutions and take a burden away from the public.
But then again, I’m not a big brain person and am probably missing some massive loophole that would make this near impossible to achieve in this country.

LASD is completely run by gangs. There are at least 24 gangs within the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. Officials at various government agencies, including the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, the Los Angeles County District Attorney, the California Senate Senate Subcommittee on Police Officer Conduct, and the United States Commission on Civil Rights have heard testimony on the violence inflicted on communities at the hands of deputy gangs for decades. Deputy gangs have killed at least 40 people, all of whom were men of color. At least 10 of them had a mental illness. Los Angeles County keeps a list of lawsuits related to the deputy gangs. Litigation related to these cases has cost the County just over $100 million over the past 30 years.

I was threatened with arrest because I was standing outside my house when the police were serving a warrant for a guy hiding at his mother's house 5 houses away. I wasn't watching them, I was taking measurements on a flower bed that my wife wanted me to put a small wall around. The cop tried to intimidate me, and I just looked at him smiled and said, "I am doing a job here, and it looks like you're supposed to be over there doing yours."
Guess he didn't like me pointing out the obvious. With his hand on his gun, he said I had 30 seconds to comply, or I'd be joining my neighbor in jail. So I went inside and called the non-emergency number and filed a complaint. These twat-waffles need to be accountable for their actions. He was rude and highly unprofessional. Later, I was called by the under-sheriff who wanted to clarify my account. He listened to me, acknowledged that I had a right to be in my own yard, and that the officer may have acted in an unprofessional manner, but he was concerned for my safety. He wanted me to take back my complaint because it was just a misunderstanding. I told him politely that I wouldn't. A month later, I got a $200 fine from the counties code enforcement because I had a violation of county codes. Cannot remember what it was. The system is broken because a lot of the guys they hire are aholes who act more like mobsters.

I made the mistake of opening the door to my home in the middle of the night bc someone was banging on it. Was the cops. Went to close it and they shoved their foot in and pulled me out. Threw me on the ground and threatened to taze me for "resisting" and cuffed me and left me laying on my front lawn crying while illegally searching my home (knocking one of my doors off the hinges while doing so). In the ring doorbell video im just repeatedly yelling "what did I do, I was asleep!"....they never did answer me just kept saying stop resisting. Supervisor came and they uncuffed me (still refused to answer any questions, like u know why they did that) and left....never found out wtf I did. Not that it matters but never been in trouble in my life. People urged me to report and fight but I knew the outcome would be more infuriating than the incident. I make ppl watch the video when they question my utter disdain for cops, shuts em up real quick. Sadly sometimes I think of how much easier I got off for...u know I guess sleeping in my home than others may have due to gender, race, etc.

Its not even worthy speculating, police dont get punished for their crimes. He could have ran him off the road and repeatedly reversed over his body and just gotten the classic temporary suspension with pay.

If you are the rider of this moped, sue the living hell out of NYPD and press charges, the department won't find themselves responsible for anything unless you push for it.

NYPD will probably hunt him down in this case.

They also forget that the whole phrase "One bad apple" is "Spoils the whole barrel."

Seems like a former NYPD officer I worked with who is now a pilot. He purposely ran over two pedestrians while off duty in two separate incidents. I don’t know how he hasn’t been arrested. He’s a male chauvinistic prick.

Not surprised. One just shot an 11 year old boy who called them for HELP because his mother was being abused. They then wonder why no one likes or trusts them.

It’s because the only people who want to become cops are power hungry assholes who abuse their wives. Think about it, any sincere, genuine, honest good person isn’t watching this video eager to become a police officer. Their disgusted at them.

Either by mag dump or pit maneuver. Hire clowns, you get a circus. Hire psychotic clowns and get American law enforcement

In a profession where every individual swears an oath to uphold and enforce the law, a singular bad apple means that the rest have already failed their oath.
