OPINION: Traffic stop involving Clarksville cop example of why many question system

If a civilian had done that, they would be in ICU (at best) and facing serious charges.

Is this a serious question? These crazy oathbreakers would have ventilated a normal citizen.

If a man who wasn't a cop grabbed a trooper's arm (after telling the trooper he had a gun, according to the affidavit) while the trooper was attempting to place the man's wife in custody, what would have been the outcome?
 
These are the cops that get disciplined and held accountable...

Police union ousts whistleblower cop who leaked death in custody video

Esqueda told USA TODAY that he’s become a pariah among his coworkers since July 2020, when he shared with a television reporter footage from January of that year showing how officers treated a handcuffed Black man in medical distress. Officers slapped Eric Lurry, restricted his airway and shoved a baton in his mouth hours before his death. Esqueda faces up to 20 years in prison after department officials opened a criminal investigation into his actions and prosecutors charged him with four counts of official misconduct.
 
Here is a perfectly executed pit maneuver by a 27 year cop chasing down a pregnant woman because she didn't stop on the side of the interstate after slowing down and turning on her flashers.

 
More proof that the cops are not your friends. They are not here to help you. They are revenuers. They are highwaymen. They are here to harass you and make sure you fall in line.

This story is missing something. First it says he was attempting to leave then he was entering the garden section. There is a disconnect in the information.
Still though, there are better ways of dealing with a knife wielding wheelchair ridden person than shooting him 9 times.

You mean like just shooting him 8 times?
Seriously though, I sincerely hope that he is sued and never us allowed to wear a badge again.
Walmart will likely get sued also for employing him. City might also face a suit.
Very bad situation fir a lot of people.

He had left Walmart and was attempting to enter Lowe’s. LEO went rogue.

Remington was working a security detail at Walmart on Monday night when an employee alerted him that a customer in a motorized wheelchair had stolen a toolbox.

Remington and the employee followed the customer, identified as Richard Lee Richards, in the store parking lot.

The employee said Richards was asked to provide a receipt for the toolbox. Richards allegedly pulled out a knife and said" "Here's your receipt," Magnus said, and he continued moving toward a Lowe's home improvement store.

The deputy must have felt his life was in imminent danger from the knife wielding 61 year old in a wheelchair to shoot him 9 times in his back and side.

A homeowner doing the same to an intruder after waking up from sleep at 3:00 wouldn't have been given the same leniency.
No doubt. I know I'm terrified of some random guy in a wheelchair breaking into my house after he climbs the stairs and brandishes a knife as he's driving away from me.
