When government is the overseer of government this is what happens. Oh we investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing. Wash, rinse, repeat.
And as long as the government decides what the government can legally do, and also what we as citizens cannot do, here we are. Do you not see the conflict of interest here, ras? The whole system is corrupt. They ****ed up big time, yet nothing was done. I’d bet they didn’t even replace the mans door or anything. It’s really just a situation of be glad they’re not at your door. This is where we are, ras. I thought you understood this. I guess not.So much wrong with this. First off... this damn war on drugs. Secondly, no knock warrants. Thirdly, pizz poor preparation. Lastly, the militarization of our police.
The standards are already super low. Any ignoramus that stumbled through high school can be a cop. After graduation it was either stacking boxes at the warehouse or the police academy.”let’s lower the background checks and standards in major cities to get more “diverse” officers, heck we can hire them straight from those neighborhoods to be able to community police”
Oops
This reminds me of an encounter with Knox county or maybe Knoxville cities finest back in my late teens maybe 20 years old. I was working in a convenience store one a Friday or Saturday night around 2 in the morning and some drunk ass dude came in wanting to buy beer after it was too late to sell it and I wouldn't sell iit to him. He walked back to the beer cooler and picked up a case and ran out the door with it. I call the police and they show up and I get a ration of crap because we didn't have a lockable beer cooler. WTF did I do wrong? It's stuff like this that sticks with people.
In knox county you will not be charged with anything like this unless you were already involved in criminal activity like dealing drugsA better example? Listen to the hell and judicial torment some people go through using their firearm in self-defense... You could end up being the one robbed and threatened in your own home and be left holding a crminal charge.
I think our county officers do a pretty good job of leaving people alone. There’s a big difference how they operate compared to KPD, although I had some very positive interactions with members of KPD back in the day at UT.In knox county you will not be charged with anything like this unless you were already involved in criminal activity like dealing drugs
