Cleveland Cop Cleared

  • A white Cleveland police officer was justified in fatally shooting a black 12-year-old boy holding a pellet gun moments after pulling up beside him, according to two outside reviews conducted at the request of the prosecutor investigating the death.

    A retired FBI agent and a Denver prosecutor both found the rookie patrolman who shot Tamir Rice exercised a reasonable use of force because he had reason to perceive the boy — described in a 911 call as man waving and pointing a gun — as a serious threat.

    The reports were released Saturday night by the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office, which asked for the outside reviews as it presents evidence to a grand jury that will determine whether Timothy Loehmann will be charged in Tamir's death last November.
Better cross Cleveland off the list of "cities to visit" for the next few years.

WHOOOO!

Bet the phone lines to the White House are SMOKING!

Black Lies Matter have got to be PEEE-YIST at this latest
"set back" to their cause without pause...

"Fuck y'all mean da president can't pick up da muhfukkin'
phone right now? Fukdat! Why can't y'all indict these Cops
like we want y'all to? Whuzzat? Maaannn... Dafukouttaheah
'bout they rights an' shit! We don't wanna hear dat!"

Trial by slanted, media fueled, wild-eyed MOB
every time a Policeman drops shots to defend himself
and others?

Rahm says:
"The Police are fetal..."

Sounds like somebody trying not to let a crisis he
had a hand in fomenting, go to waste.

Hmmm...
There had to be some reason he was so anxious to
shit-talk first responders as soon as he jumped off the
flight from D.C.

Firemen needing to learn how to bleed
and "sticking it in the ear" of The Police.

Why was picking such a very unnecessary fight with public safety/
first responders thought to be such sound political strategy?

Diversion?
Deflection?
Distraction?
Unfiltered Animus?
Pure Unadulterated Assholery?

What is the end-game?

His partner did not do Timothy Loehmann any favors by driving right up to the kid. WTF is the officer supposed to do when he is five fucking feet from someone with a #%$$*&$ gun!?!? Timothy Loehmann pulled the trigger, but the officer that drove right up to the reported gunman killed him.

That case was all piss poor tactics by the Officer driving the squad. WTF would you go on a man with a gun call and pull up right on top of the guy with your partner getting out of the squad only a few feet away from the armed subject and absolutely zero time to make any decision? Plus, it isn't as if your squad is invisible, the armed guy can see you pulling up right on top of him and he's decided what he is going to do. He can shoot your partner before your partner can even open the door. That driver is a total MORON and not someone I want to work with EVER!

Who bought the child a pellet gun in the first place? Why was he playing with it in a park? Now what would they have said if he shot another child's eye out? Probably that the police should have been there to stop it. that the police failed, right? Damned either way..

MOTHERFUCK THE MEDIA!
Especially Chicago Media!

Deliberately buried in the last paragraph
of this article?

"The pellet gun Tamir was holding shoots non-lethal
plastic projectiles but its orange markings had been removed."

Let us "fix" this "Trial By Media Fueled/Black Lies Matter MOB,"
shall we SCC?

The final paragraph should read:

"The pellet gun Tamir was holding shoots non-lethal
plastic projectiles but it's orange "SAFETY" markings
had been DELIBERATELY removed."

Wasn't there a bunch of eye-waterin', hand-wringin',
marchin' an' bullhorn yellin' a couple years ago about
some little hard head getting his narrow ass shotified
by CPD for the same STUPID SHIT of brandishing
a deliberately "blacked-out/colored in toy gun made up
to LOOK REAL?

Scene at a shithead domecile:

"Yeah... If'n da po-po catch you with it ain't nobody gonna
charge you especially if you a juvy, an if dey fuck you up,
we wins da ghetto lottery and gets some Po-leeces locked -up
an' shit for violatin' arra rights an' shit!"

This is the nihilistic, throw-away, self-hating, death worshipping,
native born rejection of a proper place with the rest of civilized society,
Hard Head, openly contemptuous of the Judeo-Christian work ethic
and sensibilities, that is harbored and nurtured in these zones of impunity
in the Democrat run urban centers of America.

It's been sequenced into the DNA in a span of 50 years...
We've seen it from behind the wheel of a raggedy-assed
Blue & White for many years.

The excuse makers say:
"It's all a trick by da w'ite-man to kill up our black youths!"

"Po-leece needs to be trained to retreat an' de-escalate!"

"We be needin' to take ovah da Po-leece!"

"What do we want?
Dead Cops!
When do we want it?
NOW!"

"We don't need y'all comin' up in heah
tellin' us how to do!"

"Y'all Po-leece actin' like y'all
don't care about us!"

"Y'all ain't workin' hard enough
to fight all this crime up in heah!"

A so-called Police boss called
us "Pussies" and said we have
"Alligator Arms" because we're
too concerned with getting run
over by the Federal Indictment
Buses idling in every Democrat
Run urban center.

"Lay right here, Officer...
We're only going to run you over,
ruin, your life, reputation and render you
homeless, penniless and cause you to
stink in front of the world for making a
reasonable though politically unacceptable
judgement that your life was in danger."

>VA-ROOOM! Pop-Pop! BLAM! VA-ROOOM!<

They would rather Policemen not be so hard
and defensive because it isn't very friendly and
public servant-like.

Old-Timer said:
"Too many m/fers are too happy to shed a fake tear
at the sight of your funeral procession..."

He was right.

"Look at all da pretty blue uniforms...
Y'all paid to die for us, right?"

Wrong.
Just flat out wrong.

Police like you have no friends.
If they won't let you be safe?
Be DANGEROUS!

"WAH! That's why we don't like you guys!
You're so mean, violent and full of hatred!"

"hooting a black 12-year-old boy holding a pellet gun..."

And the innocent, smiling 12-year-old black boy was holding the gun like a baby doll, cradling it in his arms. I ask you, is there any thing stupider than a journalist?

May our law enforcement brother get his life back in order. The stress associated with this incident has probably cost you years on your life. You good name, your reputation and your standing in society has been tarnished. Your life flashed in front of your eyes looking at a weapon in the hands of an armed offender. You cannot second guess your on the spot decision for self defense. This isn't a football game with a timeout for further review allowing the play to be overturned. You had to do what you had to do and thank God you went home safely to your family. You have been sacrificed on the liberal altar of progressivism and an agenda of anti police propaganda. Blue lives matter and may you put this behind you and enjoy life.

The rush to judgment in these recent cases is just disgusting, and Obama is to blame for a lot of it. He needs to stay out of it, and keep his mouth shut. Let the locals handle it, until such time as they prove too incompetent to make an informed decision.

Didn't the city already cut a check to the bereaved family of the deceased? What else do they want. Obvious little Tamir was worth a lot more dead than alive. Fact is you could execute this officer and pay them the $millions and they still wouldn't be satisfied. Why even try.

Fucking driver coulda got himself and his partner killed if that had been a real gun held by a shithead ready to go. Really fucked his partner too, like being dropped through the ceiling into a small room with someone waving a pistol looking at you! Didn't really give the poor bastard too many options but to take him out. Removing the orange cap on that gun wasn't smart either, many a moron made that their final fuckup in this country. I don't know how many times in this city too. These little idiots need to be taught that there are fatal consequences to trying to play the thug game because the cops don't play.

from one cop to another.. you sir, are the reason we are hated by almost everyone.. and for good reason. I agree 100 percent that ALL lives matter. I dont care if its a thug or not. Not just "police lives matter." typical copper, arrogant and self important. I took this job to get a good steady paycheck, good benefits and so i could stop working in the construction industry busting my behind everyday and getting seasonal layoffs. I cant believe some of the people on this job.. crybabies and whiners. Alot of guys on this job have no clue what a hard and crappy job really is. if they actually would have worked a hard job sometime in their life... not a highschool or college job but a real job as your profession they would appreciate this job.. but nope, a bunch of whiners and self important scum. 6 more years and I hit 29 years and 57 years old and im leaving.. no more of the puds on this job.

I remember when I was a kid I had a toy gun that looked like a .38. I was probably around 9 or 10 and used to play cops with friends. When a beat car would come down the block I'd put the thing down on the ground because I didn't want the cop thinking it was real and risk getting my head blown off. Nobody told me to do this, it was just common sense and this was before orange caps went on the things.wonder who bought it for him. Nowadays? With an even more real looking pistol? Sorry kid, wish ya had more common sense or better parents.

Okay supercop, how would you respond? Engage him from a distance? Shoot further than 25 yards (where accuracy drops by 50%)? I can assume both officers saw the gunmen from a distance and came up with that plan. I agree with questioning. However, second guess after you have all the facts from all the parties.

Reading IS fundamental.
Context is as lost to you
as a ball in tall weeds.

Read the post again.
Slowly.
Don't worry, nobody is going to make fun
of you if your lips move...

We were MANY things before we signed onto this job
so trust and be assured that we have a very well rounded
understanding as to life, living, and the ways of this madly
spinning mud-ball we all inhabit.

Trying to walk circumspectly and not be concerned about being
a pleaser of men.

One is pretty much useless as a Policeman and a man if being "hated" is
such a concern.

And lastly, from one officer to another;
what point if any, were you trying to make?

Oh...
Good on ya.
Hope you do make it to retirement in one piece
and you're not confronted by a "moment of truth."

But if you are?
May you get through it in one piece.
