Yep.

The leeway our law enforcement officers get in a country that supposedly as advanced as ours is disappointingly regressive. I think we can see from our current political situation, though, that we weren't nearly where we pretended to be as a society. I just watched the Mehdi Hasan debate on Jubilee and the stuff that was said made my head spin.

But, yeah, we don't vet our cops enough, we don't train them enough, we over-arm them, and then we given them qualified immunity. People were surprised yesterday when one of the Briona Taylor cops got three years in prison. They fired 10 shots into an apartment and hit no one, so the recommendation was that they serve no jail time despite being guilty. The federal judge disagreed, saying it was a miracle they didn't hit anyone. Of course, Breonna Taylor's still dead, and the person that accidentally shot her isn't going to serve a day for that.

I was talking to a law enforcement officer Monday. They're young and very well-intentioned. I see them like I used to see a lot of young social worker friends. They're getting burnt out of their job at 25. This is someone that wants to do it well, but they see things that are making them disillusioned. They aren't getting the help they need. They have a society that's contributing to everyone being angry at each other, and they're seeing colleagues that take short cuts or don't care about whether they hurt people or not and it's making it harder for them to do their jobs.

We need to vet and train these people better and, if they're going to be handed lethal force, there needs to be a higher standard of safety and accountability. Even if it's only 5-10%, we have too many people in this line of work that are there to take out their anger on strangers.

Police Captain Caught by FBI Staging Innocent CEO’s Arrest for Social Media
Posted on July 22, 2025
Captain David Boruchowitz was the face of law enforcement in Nye County, Nevada, showing up on the news, social media, and even police reality TV shows. But behind the badge, a darker story was brewing. In 2019 he arrested Angela Evans, the CEO Valley Electric (VEA) – a local power company, accusing her of embezzling services by moving a power pole on her own property. As it turns out, that allegation was a total lie. But the damage was done. She lost her job and ended up filing a civil lawsuit. So why did he do it? Believe it or not, Boruchowitz was later exposed by the FBI to be part of a conspiracy to oust this woman as CEO and replace her with his co-conspirator, Ken Johnson. A central part of this scheme were elaborate Facebook and YouTube videos produced by the Nye County Sheriff’s Office for the purpose of effecting the conspiracy. Despite getting caught, indicted and convicted, Boruchowitz ended up not spending a single day in prison.

Cops Pull Over a Paraplegic Driving a Blind Man, Then Order Them Both Out of the Car
Posted on July 25, 2025
Officers with the DeKalb, Texas Police Department pulled over a paraplegic man and his fully blind best friend over a broken tag light on their country Cadillac. One of the officers claimed to smell marijuana and ordered both men out of the car (the search of which did not subsequently produce marijuana) – at night, on the side of a highway. One of the men couldn’t see a thing, and the other had no use of legs and had no wheelchair. It went about how you might expect…
 
Driver Honks at Cop Car Idling at Green Light, Gets Arrested 5 Minutes Later
Posted on July 29, 2025
Matthew Edwards, a hard working welder, had just worked a 14 hour shift and was waiting to turn into his neighborhood in Troy, New York. A marked police car was waiting at a red light in front of him at the intersection where he was waiting to make a left turn onto the street where he lives. But when the light turned green, the police car didn’t move. After waiting a few moments, Matthew briefly honked his horn to alert the distracted police officer that the light had turned green. Within 5 minutes, Matthew would be violently arrested by that officer, Taylor Ganache with the Troy Police Department.

 


Deputy Stefan Ortiz with the Volusia County (Florida) Sheriff's Office stopped an older man for an alleged faulty tag light. Within minutes he literally drug the man out of his car and arrested him, telling another officer that the man was attempting to play a "constitutional rights game" with him. This video raises common issues that occur across the country, where police officers disregard basic constitutional rights, and the entire criminal justice system seems to allow it....
 
This is a must watch. Especially if you have kids who drive.

Cops Beat DEAF Guy For “NOT LISTENING”
Posted on August 25, 2025
Police officers in Jacksonville, Florida arrived at the home of a 44-year-old deaf man after a reported domestic disturbance. Despite knowing the man was deaf, officers immediately began shouting orders, which they knew could not be heard – or easily followed. Within seconds, they slammed the man onto the ground and continued shouting un-heard orders, as the man cried out that he had done nothing wrong. Afterwards, the officers mocked the deaf man, telling him that he should have “just listened.”


 
All of them are bastards, even the legends.

https://apnews.com/article/buford-pusser-walking-tall-tennessee-cold-case-6a3162fb834a19947b33fbc9002a9a45

A late Tennessee sheriff who inspired a Hollywood movie about a law enforcement officer who took on organized crime killed his wife in 1967 and led people to believe she was murdered by his enemies, authorities said Friday.

Authorities acknowledged that the finding will likely shock many who grew up as Buford Pusser fans and watched 1973’s “Walking Tall,” which immortalized him as a tough but fair sheriff with zero tolerance for crime. The movie was remade in 2004, and many officers joined law enforcement because of his story, according to Mark Davidson, the district attorney for Tennessee’s 25th judicial district.

There is enough evidence that if Pusser, the McNairy County sheriff who died in a car crash seven years after his wife’s death, were alive today, prosecutors would present an indictment to a grand jury for the killing of Pauline Mullins Pusser, Davidson said. Investigators also uncovered signs that she suffered from domestic violence.
 
Do you know what really amazes me.... these fuckers KNOW they're on camera. They KNOW they have body cams and they STILL do this shit. It's crazy. And then their cities protect them..... despite the footage they STILL protect them.

Our justice system is a complete joke.

Posted on September 12, 2025
One moment this guy is driving through Kentucky, with his 3 year old daughter asleep in the backseat… But just a few moments later, he’s outside his car, on the asphalt getting the **** kicked out of him by a Kentucky State Trooper named Seth Owens.

 
Cops Grab a Guy in his Driveway, Beat and Torture Him, Lie About It, Then Get Promoted
Posted on September 21, 2025
In Limerick, Maine, three Maine State Police troopers arrived at the home of Justin Savage and his girlfriend Shawna Morse on a disturbance call. Within fifteen minutes of their arrival, they would basically beat and torture Justin, throwing him in a police car handcuffed, with leg restraints, bloodied, and with a hood covering his face so that he couldn’t see or breathe. They charged him with numerous crimes and issued a press release two days later, accusing him of numerous crimes, including breaking the ankle of one of the troopers during the incident. The officers were not wearing body cams. Fortunately however, video just recently surfaced showing what actually happened that night…

 
The Sheriff Assaults an Officer Trying to Save His Deputy | The Governor Orders an Investigation
Posted on September 23, 2025

What if I told you that in the middle of a shooting scene—while a deputy lay bleeding on the ground—the sheriff himself showed up and arrested the one officer who was saving that deputy’s life? That’s not a hypothetical. It happened in Towns County, Georgia. And now, the governor has ordered a full investigation into Sheriff Kenneth Henderson. Even the sheriff’s own deputies couldn’t believe what they were seeing. But it probably didn’t surprise them, because it wasn’t his first time starring in a viral video…


 
Man Buys His Dream Truck, Then Gets Arrested For Driving a Stolen Truck
Posted on September 26, 2025

Coast Guard officer, Shane Sprague, bought a 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X on June 21 from Doral Volkswagen in South Florida. For many years, Shane had wanted this specific truck: a GMC 1500 AT4X. He worked hard, and made sacrifices, to be able to save money for the down payment. He put down a $15,000 deposit, traded in a 2012 Ford Focus for $1,500, and financed the rest of the $61,230 purchase price through the dealer. A dealership employee even snapped a photo of Shane looking happy with his purchase, and later texted him, thanking him for the sale and wishing him well. But, 10 days later, on July 1, an unmarked F-150 rammed his rear bumper, and he was arrested at gunpoint by Broward County deputies…

 
Cops See a Guy Who Looks Similar to the Actual Suspect (so they just grab him and call it a day)

Posted on September 29, 2025

In Las Vegas, a police officer saw a man with a gun. It wasn’t actually a real gun – just a “finger gun” – a harmless hand gesture. Though harmless, the officer was not happy about it, and decided to get his buddies and go teach the guy a lesson. The officer noticed that the suspect was a black male driving a black Dodge Durango, and saw him turn into a nearby parking garage.

The suspect parked, took the garage elevator to the ground floor and when the elevator opened, there were no cops waiting for him. He walked off and probably had a good time that night. But, when another black male, who had entered the parking garage in a different car, after the black Durango also subsequently took the same elevator to the ground floor, cops were waiting for him – the wrong guy, ready to teach him a lesson….

 
This is crazy, must watch.

Off Duty Cop Draws Down on the Neighborhood Kids

Posted on September 30, 2025

On September 28, 2025 in Hilton Head, South Carolina, an off-duty police officer with the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office drew down on several neighborhood kids, assaulting them, placing them in fear for their lives. Shockingly, neighborhood men came to the rescue… but not to the kids’ rescue. Rather, they helped the off-duty cop (reported to be Deputy Billy Squires), who has now apparently been suspended without pay, pending investigation. Fortunately, there was video footage, released to social media by the aunt of one of the kids, asking the community to share the footage.
