To Protect and to Serve II

Based on everything I've seen, the most uneducated folks on the definitions, court cases and the law - are cops. And it's why we keep having this discussion, as evidenced by the fact that they keep ending up at the defendant's table.
All 20 of them out of 500k
 
It is a discussion on that side of the issue led by the plaintiff's bar. By the lawyers who make money off of the cases and who (all too) loosely explain to people why certain kinds of claims will not be successful. And it is a hot topic in the civil libertarian crowd at the moment, see e.g. Justice Thomas' writings on the subject.
The system is ****.
It allows bad cops to stay on the job.
Drs carry insurance. When they F up the insurance pays. Too many F ups means the bad Dr can’t get insurance to cover them and eliminates bad Drs. doing away with QI and going to an insurance system for cops goes a long way towards getting rid of the bad apples. The department can still pay the insurance bill. Studies show that it would also save the departments money long term. You say they are not thinking about QI in those situations. I’m saying if they are in a system where they can lose their livelihood for poor performance then maybe they will start to think about what they’re doing.

I now return you to your normal dipshitery.

Imagine this person teaching your kids.


Meh, rude driver. Entitled driver. Driver that jumped to conclusions. Driver didn't seem to have the ability to de-escalate the situation. Driver feeling like their life was in jeopardy. Driver is a "hero" that works for the govt (assuming she is a public school teacher). Uhh... I have mixed feeling about this.

The driver was immature but at the same time, everything I mentioned above is how far too many of these cops act or feel.
 
NYPD officer Killed in hit-and-run by Cop-Hating drunk-driver is posthumously promoted to detective as wife pays tribute to the 'love of my life' at his Funeral while comforting their Two Sobbing Children

The NYPD cop killed in the line of duty by an apparent drunk driver who filmed herself saying 'f*** the police' and downing shots of alcohol before embarking on a deadly hit-and-run has been posthumously promoted to detective at his funeral.

Hundreds of mourners gathered Tuesday morning to pay their respects to NYPD Highway Officer Anastasios Tsakos at St. Paraskevi Greek Orthodox Shrine Church in Greenlawn, New York, as his grieving widow Irene gave an emotional tribute to the 'love of my life' and the 'awesome dad' to their two young children.

His 6-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son watched as their father's casket was carried out of the church by NYPD pallbearers to be greeted by a sea of law enforcement.

He was redirecting vehicles following a separate fatal car accident in Queens when Beauvais' car allegedly veered and struck him head-on, hurtling him around 200 feet. He was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Beauvais, who was allegedly intoxicated and driving with a suspended license at the time, sped away from the scene with a 'completely shattered' windshield before being stopped by police.

Police said she was almost double the legal alcohol limit at the time and later confessed to drinking wine, vodka and smoking marijuana before getting behind the wheel of her car.

Hours before the fatal encounter, Beauvais posted a rambling video of herself on Facebook Live where she said police officers are 'signing up for potential death' as part of the job and boasted about carrying a knife while drinking unknown liquids throughout the footage.

She now faces 13 charges including manslaughter in the second degree, aggravated manslaughter in the second degree, vehicular manslaughter in the second degree and leaving the scene of an incident without reporting/death. She faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

My post wasn’t about the cop showing restraint or staying professional like the guy in the video said, that’s his job. I was speaking on the so called teacher and her lack of restraint/professionalism.
