everything back to normal in McKinney

[WCDUB]

How do you know he was not trying to arrest her? It sure looked like it to me, and she was clearly resisting arrest. Arresting someone, whether 15 or 50, never looks pretty if they resist.





He was not fired.

I think you have it right.

 

[zincwarrior]

She was clearly resisting a lawful order to lay face down on the ground.

So cracking her on the concrete is ok? I reject that. This is not a rookie. He should have better skills to control the situation. He lost it.

I disagree with everything you say.When a cop gives you a lawful order,you comply(the girl).When you rush a cop from behind,that's assault(the two guys).As for the "judo roll" as you call it, he clearly tripped on a tree root,a tree root that is clearly visible in the video.Your post is snarky and silly.
The McKinney city administration,especially the police Chief,Greg Conely,should be ashamed of themselves.

The girl didn't rush the cop.

Cracking her head? There were no injuries. No CareFlite. No ambulances, no funerals.

While it might not look pretty on video, this was nothing.

The girl has not filed a complaint, so even she is not all that upset. It is everyone else who has their panties in a wad.

Since no bodily injury occurred, this does not even rise to the level of simple assault.

Noone said she cracked her head.
You don't need bodily injury for assault. You know that. Further you're assuming there's no injury.
She hasn't sued yet. She will.

Wait so your standard is bodily injury for how to control a situation. EDIT: I'm reading that wrong correct? Thats not your standard.

 

[AustinN4]

In which post did I suggest it did?

Didn't say you did, just say'in.

 

[WCDUB]

And? just because they do it doesn't make it appropriate.

Police are losing the support of the populace. This attitude is partly why. Throwing a 14 year old girl in a bikini on concrete in these circumstances is not acceptable. If you believe that, you need to pursue a new line of work.

I think your analysis is absolutely wrong. Police are gaining support from the general
population,in large measure because of the disrespect shown to LEOs by the young of ALL races.Young people today are not used to being told no by anyone, and they can't accept that LEOs have legal authority to give them lawful orders.Also,the antics of Obama,
Holder, Sharpton, and others, have created an anti-cop climate,where crime is excused,if done by blacks.Many citizens,including many black and other minorities,don't buy into this anti-cop sentiment.I think we are witnessing the beginning of a backlash against this anti-cop sentiment. Most people see the need for law enforcement,understand what a difficult and dangerous job it is,and appreciate the work of LEOs.

No assumption. Her attorney said she was not injured.

Great job on police officer to not cause bodily injury. Excellent avoidance of pepper spray, baton or taser on girl. Just used minimum physical force which resulted in no injury. Great job on his part. Just needs to control his mouth and emotions.

If every encounter with police resulted in no injuries and no complaints like this one did, America would be in great shape.

What great job? Physical force for what? A veteran can't control a teenage girl in a bikini without slamming her into concrete? Wow ok.

This one ended in no complaints? Then it wouldn't be all over the news.

No complaints by anyone who was there.

Lots of whining by folks who were not there.

Possibly she should have chose a softer place to stand and run her mouth while disobeying a police officers orders then?

It's on the news because right now black and white sells on our colored televisions. He did control her. Would it have been better to pepper spray or taze her?

This ended with him not shooting some punk ass kids who wanted to charge and puff out their chests to a cop. Great restraint on his part for not ventilating at least one of them.

Exactly. Without video, the cops would have been commended. Dispersed mob rioting at Pool club without shooting, tasering, pepper spraying or any bodily injury to anyone. How much better can it get?

It is amazing how one can spin the narrative when race is interjected.

"running your mouth" when you're not under arrest makes you subject to being thrown on concrete while wearing a swimsuit? is that the policy line you want to take?

 

[Mike1234567]

and just like that, the "Chief" comes out in front of cameras, tosses his officer to the hyenas and they sweep their little problem under the rug and empower many more POS jackasses who want to raise hell and rush at cops while trying to restrain combative suspects

Nice. You've just weakened your presence chief, you just diminished any respect the public had for your officers. Now you have trained them to know you will buckle and back down because you are afraid of what you saw in Ferguson and Baltimore. Well, you go home to your pretty little manicured back yard and have yourself a couple of whiskey sours and feel good about yourself.

I am not saying everything the cop did was right, but it didn't warrant forcing him out. The real problem was the attendees of that pool party and the race baiters who want nothing short of criminal immunity for anyone in a confrontation with a cop.

Right on all counts... 100 percent.

LMAO

By your logic, cops are taught how much force to use at the academy to effect an arrest based on the bathing suit the person is wearing. And cops should find a bounce house first, so as not to throw them on a sidewalk and hurt them, oh wait, she wasn't hurt...

Without video-aka no proof of what went on.
That time is past.

By my logic they don't body slam a 14 year old girl who is no danger and not under arrest, that is correct. Its amazing how that works out.

 

[Renegade]

By my logic they don't body slam someone not under arrest, that is correct. Its amazing how that works out.

Folks who comply with police orders do not get body slammed. Witness the youth who when told to sit by the officer, did sit. No force used on him. Folks who defy police orders, are made to comply. Doing it without injury to either party is exemplary police work.
