    Boy, you sure have it out for the police.
    I bet you were a thief as a child. Must be something you’ve done where you had multiple run-ins with LE.
    I hope you’ve been rehabilitated.

    I have no problem with police, just the incompetent ones like the ones in the video, someone has to hold them accountable since you and your fellow police apologists won’t.

    Just the incompetent ones. Just like you feel the need to constantly tongue-lash libs, incompetent cops also need a tongue-lashing. I’ll gladly do the latter since a certain contingent won’t.

    Dude I'm supportive of the police - but every day it becomes harder. Police do stupid shite, then quietly get put away.

    Holy cow. What a woman! I brought spray and a pistol. I'll be trading the pistol in on a 10mm. I'd rather have it and not need it, then need it and not have it.

    A guy in a neighboring County got mauled by a black bear. The bear had been shot. He was getting the dogs off the bear when it "came back to life" and grabbed him. They had to life flight him out of the Flatwoods. He survived.

    Why is it so often the people that scream about their need for freedom from tyranny the same people that protect this type of tyranny?

    From police misdeeds to the Patriot act. It's all the same. Allowing governmental overreach on basic rights while crying for freedom.

    I've wondered the same thing.

    The same people that have at least one article of clothing that says "We the People..." are the same folks that are first to mention giving up your rights. "Just do what they say." "Just give them your ID". I don't get it.

    I've seen so many that are so pro 2nd Amendment, yet will say things like "Even though having that gun was technically lawful, he shouldn't be provoking the police like that."

    A lot of the "Don't Tread on Me" crowd would eat the Gadsen flag if an officer told them to.

    They throw a temper tantrum at the mere mention of giving up their guns, because they've created a fantasy doomsday scenario in their heads that they'll need all their guns to fight against the police and military one day...but for the time being, they want you to not ask questions give up your ID to police. Make it make sense. Citizens need to start saying "I'll give you my ID when you pry it from my cold, dead hands."

    If you have Facebook, here's the press conference. Supervisor got demoted, 7 day suspension, no favorable action for 2 years. The female cop got a 2 day suspension. They both have to take remedial civil rights training.

    Please see the... - Columbia County Sheriff's Office | By Columbia County Sheriff's Office | Please see the following message from Sheriff Hunter regarding the arrest of James Hodges.

    YT video



    I think the lady cop started this whole thing and was more than happy to cuff the guy. 2 days off and some classes. Ouch.

    I wouldn't seriously expect anyone to say that in real life lol, it's a spin off Charlton Heston's famous saying

    Y'all are just too freakin funny. My name was brought into this thread in the very first sentence of the very first post....Yet Y'all insist that I was not invited to post in this thread. You are also claiming that I am here defending the police. I have yet to defend anybody although watching the prick in the video I could certainly defend some of their actions if I chose to.

    I felt like she was being snarky back to the man but the supervisor got mad and escalated it.
    I think at least in the case of Proud Boys, White Nationalist, and fascist types, many believe themselves to be the good guys and think the cops are going to be on their side of any situation. I’ve even heard them yell at cops that they should be treated better since they are the ones who support the cops. But they only back the blue selectively. January 6th is just the most obvious example. I’m not saying any of this applies to the average 2nd Amendment advocate. Most of them aren’t fascists.

    This is the relevant section. They knew almost at once that the man had no firearm, and the detention should have immediately ceased.

    Now if you want to see me condemn Police officers post things like this about officers who act bad to benefit themselves.

    This post is childish justificatiin. Your problem over the years is that you reflexively support the cops no matter how egregious their behavior. You ought to look in the mirror and address that problem because it's why people react to you as they do.

    Bow to the authoritarians. Who cares. It's just your freedom and rights.
