LAPD executes a man as he runs away, then shoots him again as he lies the ground

[Let's Get Free]

Just when you thought the LAPD couldn't get anymore out of control. The actual footage of the shooting starts at about 2:14

Fucking scum. ACAB.

[Red Banana]

I wonder if this along with the whole Dorner situation will spark some kind of reform to or investigation of the LAPD..... Probably not, but a man can hope can't he?

[Let's Get Free]

I swear, it's almost like the LAPD wants another riot

[Fourth Internationalist]

Yes! Let the cops investigate their own crimes! Then, let rapists and murderers investigate rapes and murders! Genius!

[Le Socialiste]

Cop said he was "afraid for his life." Bullshit. You don't chase someone and shoot them in the back when you're afraid for your life. This and the cops who shot at a mother and her daughter because she was supposedly driving a pickup truck that looked like Dorner's? Fuck. ACAB.

If that was directed at my hope for an investigation of the LAPD, obviously it should be done by an outside, accountable and neutral body. If not, then I wholeheartedly agree with your sarcasm, well really I agree either way, you know what I mean.

[The Garbage Disposal Unit]

Wait, when did this happen?

It was sarcasm at the police chiefs in the video who said they investigated it. :)

I'm a little confused as well, the media story in the video above says it happened two years ago. :confused:

These stories are usually kept quiet for a few years to avoid shit storms.

recently in LA when some pigs shot at a crowd of protesters, who were the family of a man who was just shot by LAPD, sparked lost of street action there were 2 other police murders that were not reported on because they did not want to fuel backlash, remember when pigs in military fatigues were around disneyland last year?

So...adopt the US military's system, then?

Or we could have the police chief become merely an adviser to a board of elected officials analogous to a citizens' police council that would make all the final decisions. That would be superior to the current system.

[B5C]

I am surprised that the Justice Department hasn't crack down on the LAPD?

They put the hammer on the Seattle PD for it's attacks against the mentally ill, homeless, and minorities.

Or we could replace it with an armed people's militia composed of everyone in the neighborhood. But that's just be being a dirty commie again I suppose.

[Ele'ill]

there was stuff that happened around this like a year or two ago

[Althusser]

I hope Dorner crossbows that fucker, and brings the pain to every LAPD pig.

I was making a joke. The US military has nothing like that. If a crime is committed it is up to the chain of command to investigate, and they often ignore it to cover up their own asses. Watch the documentary "The Invisible War" if you haven't already, very eye-opening.

[Jesus Saves Gretzky Scores]

How does still make sense to say it's "just a few bad apples"?

[Red Enemy]

Of course they do. They get to dress up in their 21st century Knight gear, and beat people, gas people, intimidate protestors, and just generally abuse their powers as a mass organ under the guise of justice.

They will keep enjoying it until they are held accountable by the bourgeois legal system, or by molotov cocktails.
