Being around LE for many many years, when they use this technique, they know how it works, how well it works and what the outcome can/will be if they don't let up. There was no excuse for this treatment. Ok, there are many other ways to handle someone like Mr. Floyd but they chose NOT to use any other tecniques...this is on them and rightly so. Those police knew what they were doing when they applied that specific technique and in spite of outsiders telling them to let Floyd up, they chose not to...and because of their actions, then inactions, those involved police have brought the citizens rath upon themselves and their city. This is not a case of Bad cop, no doughnut...this is wayyyy beyond that.
Maybe you should join them. Why don't you head on down there and destroy innocent businesses. Why don't you go down there and burn down peoples homes. Why don't you burn all the grocery stores so no one has any food. And burn down the police station so there is no law enforcement of any kind. So that others can just drag women and children from their cars and rape and murder them. Stop the EMP's from being able to repsond, and the fire department as well. Why not burn down the hospitals as well. After all it is all justified by your reasoning. I hope your car doesn't break down while your there though because the auto stores will be all burned down. You should be ashamed.

I believe you've misunderstood Frazbo's post. He is in absolute agreement with you re: the heinous nature of the police man's actions and it being totally out of bounds of any code, implicit or explicit, legal, ethical or moral.

Don't forget the alligators, Doc1:conf:

I am the proud owner of a Windham Weaponry government issue W15 AR/M-16 clone, along with 6 mags, 5 20 round Vietnam era steel/aluminum mags. 200 training rounds, 40 green tips. I spent some time figuring out how to use the charging handle, lock it back, hit the button to send it forward, etc My only problem so far is I can't get the ejection port/dust cover to lock in place on the carrier. I found about a dozen youtube clips on how to remove the dust cover, but none how to lock it in place. Hell, I can't even remember if my M-16A1 even had a dust/ejection port cover.

I want to ammo up, amigo but I like it stripped down, maybe a scope or something. shit is coming down Doc, got the minefield set up yet?:crtmn:

It has a spring loaded plunger on the door that will hold it closed. Verify the plunger on the door moves freely then close the door, press hard until it clicks, it is mostly likely new and still hard to snap into place.

Well if I am then I am sorry. But I read it multiple times and it seems they were saying that the police brought all of this upon themselves and the city. No matter how wrong the actions of one cop may be it does not justify this attack on the entire city.

Seven shot during downtown Louisville protests
According to the Louisville Metro Police Department, seven people have been shot during protests downtown.

LMPD said at least one of the people is critical in the hospital.

There have been arrests, but police said the situation is ongoing and information will not be available for some time.

ORIGINAL STORY

Several hundred protesters have converged in downtown Louisville protesting the death of Breonna Taylor.

People have gathered for several hours near the Jefferson County Courthouse. Our news partners at WAVE-3 News Louisville overheard crowds chanting "No justice, no peace, prosecute police!" and "Breonna, Breonna, Breonna!".

The Louisville Metro Police Department has blocked off several streets in the area.

Taylor was shot and killed inside her apartment during a narcotics raid on March 13. Her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, said he fired at the officers as they were breaking through the door of her apartment. He said he did not know they were police officers. Taylor was struck and killed in her hallway.

This is a developing story and an evolving situation. This story will be updated as more information comes out.

Of course they "could" if only bringing the situation into control was the goal.
It isn't.
This country has to burn to give the globalist what they need.

Well maybe the President if going to have to do it for them..........
These criminals are now actively using firearms, they needed to break up the crowds ASAP
before firearms were used.......

Actually the knee on neck if done properly was considered a good way to keep a suspect down in a protected position . It wasn't like having the biggest guys in the shift sit on him.

Boy...

That IS old school, isn't it?

We phased that out of training in the early-mid 1990's due to asphyxiation probability.

I understand the concept of "control the head; control the body" but using a knee on the neck for 10 minutes is just plain incompetence.

How could he work as security with that kind of record? I thought security personal status kind of gave me the assurance there was a limit to the criminality a man could have been caught at :eek:
In Oregon, certified security officers must undergo a criminal background check and DPSST (Dept. of Public Safety Standards and Training) certification. Basically, you have to have a clean record. You can have certain, mostly misdemeanor crimes expunged after a ten year disqualification. Each state is different. There is also the question of whether or not that is the same person as the one killed in Minneapolis.

I've lived through this sort of amateur bullshit in the South African riots long ago. The dynamic is always the same. If the ringleaders are not eliminated immediately (and no, I don't necessarily mean killed), it only serves to embolden the rest. This cycle feeds upon itself with the riots growing ever larger until things are totally out of control.

At that point, the government, which had tried to present a public face of restraint as the unrest built, now only has extreme and violent measures left in their toolbox. The communists used to play the (old) South African government like a fiddle in this respect and if a (relative) few Africans had to be sacrificed, so be it. That basic dynamic is in play here, irrespective of the players or their masters.

As if I even need to point this out, the fact that major US cities are allowed to fall to violent lawlessness - without adequate response - is symptomatic of a frail and failing culture.

They did bring upon themselves and the entire city suffers for it. That does not justify the violence and looting in any way.

The actions of the cop and inactions of city 'leaders' combined are the root cause for a great deal of suffering and loss to innocents in the city at the hands of lawless vandals. In the end only the city leaders and the rioters that caused the widespread harm win because none of them nor their victims will ever see justice.

Or, further proof, if indeed it is needed, that the Communist and communist light are running our institutions and using their playbooks to do so.
