Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Why so many police shootings? - Chuck Baldwin responds

They deserve at least the benefit of the doubt.

These handicaps should not be the death sentence they often turn out to be. And so LE must never take the comply or die stance.

"Often"???

Yeah...we have a real problem with cops shooting people because of the issues you list...unless they're brandishing a weapon.
Even then, a cop pointing his weapon at you is a pretty universal language to stop what you're doing and raise your hands....if you're too retarded or drugged to understand THAT, you won't last long regardless of whether a cop shoots you or you shoot yourself...

Remember the post a few years back of the video of the cop shooting the deaf man walking away while cutting an apple with a pocket knife? He shouted the command to drop the knife, but he kept walking, because he didn't hear it.

You've been had guys. Hitler perfected the "Big Lie" technique and you guys are falling for it.
Chuck Baldwin assumes he can see a video or two and knows all about what happend ? Do any of you recall the Rodney King incident and riots ? The LAPD cops were roasted by a 15 second segment of a much longer video by the press. Even the then chief of police, a guy with very little actual time on the streets, bought it as proof positive of their misconduct. Turns out they were innocent. They used what force they were allowed to use to make an arrest.
Yeah, I know. Two of them were found gulity in federal court. Anybody know what happend to their attempt to appeal their convictions ? Not the government's appeal of their sentences, but the appeal of their convictions. The 9th Circuit Court refused to rule on it. Their right to appeal was denied.... Every hear of Double Jeopardy ? According to our constitution it is forbidden. But not to cops.
Yes, cops can make mistakes. All human beings do. But falling for the left's propaganda is a much worse thing. They deserve at least the benefit of the doubt.
I don't see anything like that in Chuck Baldwin's comments.
Where we are headed is to a time were the cops won't be there keeping are communities safe. Lots of our large cities are already there. Get ready to deal with bad guys yourself. If you do, you will get the same emotional, biased treatment they have been recieving for many years now. E

Comply or die.

Honestly, I can't stand the tactics of most of the LE I have to deal with. Most come at me with the attitude that I am guilty and they just need to catch me. It's bullshit but unfortunately the reality we live in. Just a handful of bad encounters with a power hungry cop really sours a guy.

I am respectful to LE, but I don't trust them for a second.

I have neither the time or inclination to read all of this, no doubt highly flawed and biased, treatise on police behavior. But here is what I know. We have the most criminal administration in the history of the country. A complacent and equally criminal by lack of discernment public has allowed this to be. This administration has fanned the flames of racial hatred and directed it to the police who are that public's buffer from horrendous crime because they want that buffer to crumble so it can be re-shaped by marxist totalitarian design. In doing so, the top law enforcement officials in the country are not giving support to our police when they most need it and our top politicians are giving comfort and support to a nefarious group, black lives matter, on record advocating the execution of police officers. All this blends together to make cops more than suspicious of motivations from above and in fear for their lives on a much higher level than every before in their careers and history.

I have heard nearly no one call this out as the rational for the increase in police shootings of blacks on TV, even Fox, and neither of the half dozen or so posts and read. I believe we all know and understand the gravity of the next election, and noting how dogs and lieberals return to their vomit, and further Trump has "chose" to wing the debate, believe we are totally screwed. I have to wonder how many of our white children and us will be slain by angry vicious blacks after the changes called for by the traitor in chief yesterday take place in the legal system. Sew to the wind, reap the whirlwind.

ETA: Was he shot in the back???

As I recall, yes. I believe it was a Seattle cop.

Do any black people live in Iowa?

Baldwin is a contradiction with his own statements. He said most police shootings are justified but many are not. Huh?

SIMPLE RULES FOR SURVIVING POLICE ENCOUNTERS:

1. Follow all police verbal commands.

2. Follow Rule #1.

3. If you feel you were improperly treated, file a citizen complaint at the PD.
Your case will be reviewed and you will be interviewed. If you still feel victimized,
take you case to the local media. But at least you didn't escalate the "encounter"
to some level on the force continuum.

True, but death is a hell of a price to pay for LEO ego's...

Gee, I was always told that I was a free man. That means a law enforcement officer has NO AUTHORITY at all over me unless he has a reasonable suspicion that I have violated a law. I'm under no compunction to follow an order from them.
