I wonder how many of these deputies will be gone after dinging the taxpayers for a pile of cash?

So you're saying that because a cop is 'trained' and 'makes a situational call,' he can kill anyone on whim, right?

THAT'S THE JOB.

That's a yes. Zeke says cops can kill whenever they want based on their own interpretation.

And there you have it, in a nutshell.

That's what the LAW says.

Making a reasonable adjustment in one's opinion isn't fuckin' lame, Zeke. Here's what's fuckin' lame...

The mayor of Chicago and the superintendant of the Chicago PD admit the existence of a "blue wall."

Your denial of the existence of the "blue wall" is crushed into dust. And once again, off you go hiding in the weeds.

That is fuckin' lame, Zeke.

Of course, you make a big thing of 'interpretation.' Police in the field interpret. But they aren't the only ones. Judges interpret. Juries interpret. And don't forget the public, those people in whose name and for whose benefit all this goes on. They interpret too.

Interpretations are another thing that can be changed.

And yet the law remains the same: for good reason.

And yet there is a blue wall of silence that remains the same.

Nope.

You're just mad.

Live with it.

No, the citizens are mad. Ferguson, New York, LA, Baltimore; list is enlarging.
This incestuous relationship between the DA's and Law Enforcement needs and will be scrutinized. I am certain somewhere in the constitution it is inferred that cops need to follow the very same laws that they are PAID to uphold. They do not have a license to kill.
