Another case to show we need to end the "war on drugs".
In the video, you can see cops paying close attention to the hood of Werts' ride, shining a flashlight on the area and allegedly discovering a foreign white substance on it.
That's when an officer walks back to the patrol car to question Werts, asking straight-up, "What's the white stuff on the front of your hood, man?"
Werts immediately responds, "Bird sh*t."
The officer doesn't believe him, saying repeatedly that the substance looks nothing like bird poop ... and instead, he tells Werts test results indicated it was a controlled substance.
"I swear to God it's not [bird poo]," the officer says, "because I just tested it, and that turned pink."
Werts insists over and over again it's bird poop ... but the cop clearly doesn't believe him, with the officer eventually telling him, "It tested positive for cocaine."
Listening to wwl this morning was very enlightening.
According to Newel Normand, The investigation into the Michael Brown shooting returned nothing. Tons of false reporting and perpetuation of lies about what really went down. The officer lost his job for doing his job and likely has to wear a disguise when he goes out in public.
Now we have the democratic presidential candidates perpetuating the lies and creating issues where none exist. These people ought to be ashamed
The DoJ report on the Ferguson PD fleshes out why the Ferguson community reacted so strongly to the Michael Brown case. Turns out they had good reason to "overreact."
Can't get the link to work. Google Ferguson DoJ report.
The cliff notes version.
There is a movement to undermine the police. Call it “antifa”. Whatever.
Had you left off the last paragraph, you were close to having a pointNot sure where you’re trying to go or what you want to imply.
There might have been issues in the community. There might have been a few bad apples in the police dept. Can you name a human organization that’s perfect?
I hope you’re not trying to rationalize Michael Brown’s actions based on the perception that the police dept had some bad apples...or perhaps a belief that the police are all racists...
The fact is that Officer Wilson did nothing wrong. And the DOJ report backs that up. Witnesses and physical evidence backed up his account while other so called witnesses recanted. To summarize an 86 page report carried out by Obama’s DOJ, it says there wasn’t enough evidence, the matter lacks prosecutive merit and should be closed.
There is a movement to undermine the police. Call it “antifa”. Whatever. It’s rampant on social media and message boards. It stems from the Plaintiff mindset that law enforcement is a racist organization. They believe in utilizing any means necessary to achieve their objective. It tries to give justification to a civilian uprising against the police- undermine their authority. We see people pouring water on officers in NY. It uses the Michael Brown case and perverts the fact and and it’s shameful.

The last paragraph torpedoed everything you were trying to say
And the very opposite of this is quite true on social media as well. The police can and do no wrong. While it has been my experience that most cops are just normal people, the fact that a lot of cops can shoot unarmed people for no reason and a significant portion of the general public have no issues with this, is well appalling. I have backed up some questionable shootings in the past with my experience, however recently, there have been numerous shootings that just can't be articulated factually. The old "I feared for my life" is just played out. However, a lot of people just think that it's business as usual and that thought process is just as concerning, if not more, than the supposed threat from Antifa. The fact that we will allow trained personnel to make such grave mistakes is troubling and the fact that our society pretty much condones these actions is even more so. As a police officer, I wanted to be held to a higher standard than the average citizen due to my specialized knowledge and training. I was the individual to arrive on scene and restore order when all else had failed. I feel that nowadays too many officers (1 officer is too many) feel that deadly force is the first option and our country has no problem with this. To summarize, our police departments do a difficult, mostly thankless task, and do it pretty well. We have to do better at community relations and we have to hold substandard officers more accountable.Not sure where you’re trying to go or what you want to imply.

You can listen to 5 different talk show hosts and according to "them" you will probably have 5 different opinions. What makes Normand's "according to" Fact? Can you enlighten what his points were and what sources he used? Normand is no different than any other talk show host that his personal opinion has a lot to do with if you agree or disagree with something like this. Peronally, I believe they were both equally responsible for what happened, both did things that cost him his life. I've been in a court room before and heard a judge say straight up "the cop is always right unless you have unquestionable proof". I have no doubt this a very common practice. Most civilians will probably say this too. Just because there isn't enough to charge them, doesn't mean there was no wrong doing.Listening to wwl this morning was very enlightening.
