Yep but he messed up my montage.@mkwerx That was beautiful and accurate synopsis, and you saved me from writing it. Bravo Zulu!
One of the replies to this tweet was:
Did the two cops live? Did they catch this clown?
This was a couple years ago. Both officers survived, though one nearly bleed to death, shot in the femoral artery. The driver has been convicted of attempted murder of a police officer (2 counts). He was sentenced to 110 years.
Carl Stokes,I remember that bubblegum show well.Was so glad when I put Cleveland in the rear view mirror.But Deja Vu here we go again in Portlandia.I spent a number of years in Cleveland as a Patrol Sergeant working under a black liberal mayor who marched linked arm and arm with a platoon of Black Panthers down Euclid Avenue, shutting down traffic on the main street in downtown Cleveland. I quit and went into Federal LE when it became obvious that unless I enforced the law selectively, forgiving the same behavior by black militant liberals that I was arresting white criminals for, I would have no backup from my supervisors who were struggling to hang on to their careers in the face of the anti-white bigotry which even before the riots made all LEOs jobs there more dangerous than they inherently were.
This incident is a perfect example...this obviously large, strong guy is arrested, he takes two officers to the ground, wrestles a taser from one of them, then runs, turns and fires or threatens to fire the taser at them. If one of the pursuing offices is hit by the taser he is then incapacitated. This fleeing felon (assault and battery on an officer) who has already demonstrated his goal is to obtain the officers weapon, would then be capable of taking it from the now incapacitated officer and shooting him and the other officer. At what point do officers die because they were afraid to make the decision to use lethal force in order to save their own (or another persons) life because the (now) escaping felon is black. Thank God I no longer have to work the streets, in uniform, attempting to protect the public and administer fair and honest justice. As a cop I lost my family because my wife was terrified and afraid to answer the telephone when I was on duty because it might be the call that all LEO families dread. After retiring from my Federal Narc career I now work as an Investigator for a SW Oregon Sheriff's Office and every day I pray for the safety and sanity of all the young men who have the courage to pin on the badge and dress in the uniform and go out there to protect the innocent public while making themselves the targets of ANTIFA and the like, accept responsibility for making life and death split second decisions without the support of their administrative supervisors, and exposing themselves and their families to crippling lawsuits and constant threat of being arrested themselves. Ex LEOS do not last long in prison.

I wondered about that myself. Do you have a reliable source that says he fell asleep in the drive-thru line? Thanks.He was sleeping in the middle of the Drive-Thru not in the parking lot. He was blocking people who were trying to go through drive-thru at wendy's. Highly doubt any cop would have came if he didn't pass out right at the drive-thru.
The dispatcher then asks, "Is he black?" to which the caller responds in the affirmative. IDK why that question came up.
No, she did not, but in fairness, right after the woman in the drive-thru lane confirmed the race of Mr. Brooks with the dispatcher, the tweet ended.Maybe because others had already reported him and the dispatcher was trying confirm if he was the same guy. Did she also ask about vehicle description and tags?
Question for you... How did you surmise that the 911 dispatcher was also a female?? I never said anything about the dispatcher's sex in my original post...
You can change out every police chief in the USA and STILL have the same amount of stupidness with criminals and animalistic behaviour! Skin color is not the answer!Justice can only be served by hiring the new Chief based on skin color.
Not deadly perhaps but it could incapacitate the office and put him under the power of the perp. Not good so, unfortunately for the perp, shooting is justified.Didn't know a taser was a deadly weapon at distance.
Hmm.
"Not deadly perhaps but it could incapacitate the office and put him under the power of the perp."
With other cops around?
