The Whining and Bitching Thread

I don't think it's one of those. It was one of the pay options at my job, and the only one I could choose since I didn't have a bank account. It basically is like a bank account, since you get a card from it that you can use like a debit card.

A close friend of mine got shot by the police. http://denver.cbslocal.com/2012/02/25/daughter-of-man-shot-by-englewood-police-defends-father/

That sucks, but from the article it looks like the police were in the right.

White supremacist convicted murderer pulls gun on cops, gets shot.

Gotta side with the cops on that one.

 

[Dak]

Who saw him go for the gun(if he even had one)? Any witnesses besides the cops?

Cop testimony without any kind of corroborating evidence is bullshit.

This.

Edit: It said he reached for the weapon, not pulled it out. There was no confirmation in the article as to what type of firearm it was or anything. Not to say it didn't happen, but it's not enough information to convince me.

Police say Barnum reached for a weapon in his waistband after ignoring officers’ orders.

Everything a police officer says that nobody else saw is definitely a lie.[/logic]

 

[Chanakya]

STFU everybody. You wouldn't give a shit if he was black or latino.

It's unfalsifiable and therefore inadmissable. Also, there's a massive conflict of interest.

 

[divine_torture]

He didn't have a weapon. My other friend that was there with him (in the other car) said he didn't and it was unjust.

 

[Dak]

Cops brutalize some random person, and then make up a story to cover their ass, which is nearly always proven wrong by any other evidence if it surfaces.

Anthony Buehler's case is not an anomoly. Cops make up any bs they can until videos and witnesses come forward. Then they get the freedom to retract the bs story and still not get in trouble for outright lying.

So is your friend / the victim's family going to file a complaint or press charges or anything?

 

[Dak]

Capitalism would be an alternative to what we have now

 

[zabu of nΩd]

^ wrong thread

 

[Dak]

No, I'm bitching

I don't know yet. I told him he definitely should. I talked to Jeremiah's (the one they shot) daughter and she said they're working on it. It's fucking bullshit. He's done some dumb shit in the past but he was a Brother to me.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Yeah i sure hope the truth comes out if the cops really murdered him.

What caused the confrontation though?

 

[divine_torture]

I can't tell all of that. He was just trying to help someone else is all I can say.

Watch "Anthony Buehler takes on the cops". Same shit, different place. Former Army Ranger/West Point grad tried to prevent two women from getting roughed up by the cops and gets booked on a trumped up felony. He's fighting it. At least he didn't get killed.

I fucking hate my allergy. My nose is just fucking closed. It makes eating shitty.
