Ferguson Cop Points Gun At Protesters And Press, Screams "I Will F***ing Kill You", Has Been "Relocated"
In the aftermath of recent violent events and now that even the US Attorney General has arrived, one would assume that the Ferguson police had at least some "sensitivity" training about how to approach protesters, especially those "armed" with cameras. Not in this case. The footage below out of Ferguson shows a police officer pointing his gun directly at protesters and reporters while screaming "I’m going to f***ing kill you!"
The clip shows a Ferguson officer with his gun raised pointing it directly at a citizen journalist who was live streaming at the time: the incident was witnessed by Infowars reporter Joe Biggs who was also filming the incident.
"My hands are up bro, my hands are up," states the journalist before the cop responds, "I’m going to f***ing kill you, get back, get back!"
"You’re going to kill him?” asks another individual before the journalist asks, “did he just threaten to kill me?"
When the cop is asked for his name he responds, "go fuck yourself."
It didn't end there.
As Infowars reports, "another clip shows the officer pointing his gun as protesters demand he lower the weapon. A second cop intervenes to make the officer lower his weapon as more irate demonstrators demand to know the officer’s name."
The officer’s response to people asking for his name almost immediately prompted the launch of the Twitter hashtag #officergofuckyourself.
Biggs live tweeted the incident, and also took this photograph of the cop.
The incident is certain to provoke curiosity as to just how the local Police department is handling the de-escalation of local tensions.
As for police officer #officergofuckyourself, it appears he is no longer "on location."
Quick work by ACLU: Highway patrol called. They identified the cop. He will no longer be in ferguson. https://t.co/7UDGhV9cyK

One also wonders: if not in Ferguson, just where can this pleasant, if "relocated", individual be encountered?

poorly trained? or trained israelis? really the same thing, although it all depends on your perspective.
WTF. You are retarded. And no prespective has nothing to do with it, you are simply retarded.

you were saying?
"In 2011, then St. Louis County Police Department chief Timothy Fitch attended the Anti-Defamation League’s (ADL) National Counter-Terrorism Seminar, an annual week-long Israeli training camp where US law enforcement executives “study first hand Israel’s tactics and strategies” directly from “senior commanders in the Israel National Police, experts from Israel’s intelligence and security services, and the Israel Defense Forces,” according to the ADL’s website."

Agree, so long as we're replacing them with people who know and respect the Constitution rather than a new generation of brown shirts ready to do the Fed's bidding.
That also is training.
There are no perfect people. It is all training in what is the correct thing to protect and defend.
How much training do you need to effectively serve and protect people who you believe want you dead?
This is not nearly as much a training problem as it is of a state that breeds hate and then facilitates both sides of the conflict...just like we do in every other part of the world...get it?
We can beat up the cops and the blacks, but we must look at the root causes, and it ain't poor training. Its deliberate divisiveness to create chaos. The route to all concentrated unaccountable power.
"people who you believe want you dead?"
Making shit up to scare yourself. That's the definition of psychotic.
Police work is exactly what Ofc. Wilson did,
Shows how much you know about police work.
I happen to know tons about it. And unless the report that he emptied is gun into an unarmed person -- and two shots to the head just for good measure -- prove incorrent then he was not doing proper police work and I can stop right there.
According to AP article, while in Ferguson today Holder promises "change is coming." Which likely means a much more vibrant police force is coming to Ferguson.
No no not stupid. Poorly trained.
I've never been a cop, or done crowd control but I sure as heck know not to point guns at people and make demands. It's more than training. That guy needs to be off the force.
Yes he might be a sociopath as well as poorly trained.
I was responding to the allegation that he was stupid. Police training is supposed to take the place of intelligence (Army, same thing) because in a fast moving situation you don't have time to think. Even smart people can make bad snap-decisions, proper training helps them avoid that.
Nobody on ZH understands what police work is. You need to wrap your brain around this one, because bad cops are coming to a city near you, and you need to know how to respond to them as bad cops with bad training rather than this mish-mash of blame the victim, blame the situation, blame the press, blame the libtards, or whatever else is your personal peeve because these guys have guns and their training in situation management and crowd control looks for shit to me.
Well they definitely don't want the cops to be too smart.
http://www.mintpressnews.com/can-someone-be-too-smart-to-be-a-cop/192106/
They are trained exactly how the overseers want them to be trained. This is no accident. The militarization of the police isn't just an accident, nor the training of the military to shoot civilians during a time of (banksters caused) economic collapse.

Did you forget what country we're in? That doesn't happen here. Kelly Thomas was beaten to death by seven cops while begging for his life for literally no reason. Then the cops turned on the folks filming it, seized phones, chased people into their houses and kicked down doors to seize every known piece of footage. Not even a single written fuckin warning or even a stern talking to.
It's hard to imagine that it is not like that on purpose.
fireed and prosecuted.
in what state is pointing a gun at someone and threatening to shoot without legal justification not a crime?
removed?
what's that paid admin leave and a pension?
fuck this guy - he needs an old fashioned ass kicking....
Multiply him by a million - that's our Israelified, roided out, tough guy with a badge and gun police-army.
Hey, tough job, 90% are good dudes, and fair, I'm sure - but a lot are overpaid, over-benefitted, and seem to think the Constitution is just a piece of paper.
surely you jest .. 90% "good" cops ... LOL
I would guess maybe 10%. Maybe not even that. "good cops" leave a situation like that and only bad cops will stay. A force can get to 100% fucking retarded roid destroyers in a few years or a decade, with no way out ever.
I grew up in the ghetto myself and I had numerous confrontations with the police. While I did a lot of things that could have put me in jail and radically altered the course of my life, by the grace of God I never got busted for any of those acts. Every time the police hassled me it was when I hadn’t actually done anything wrong—call it poetic justice for me, I guess. From my experiences with the police I can report the following: I met one officer whom I believe was truly good, several who were truly bad or borderline psychopathic, and at least 50% of the entire force falls into neither camp and is just going through the motions for a paycheck.
Early on in my attempts to figure out how the world really worked, I formed an impression which has been borne out by experience and corroborated by the testimony of others, viz. that most police officers are drawn from the ranks of the kids who seemed “edgy” back in high school. I’m not talking about the kids who were the hardcore gangbangers and actual criminals, but rather that odd assortment of stoners, skaters, and punks who wore leather jackets and listened to metal, who had just enough of an attitude to get kicked out of class on occasion but who seldom caused any serious trouble. It was perhaps these early experiences around the borderlines of acceptable behavior which caused them to play around with the concept of institutional authority, to recognize the often arbitrary distinction between those who could and could not exercise a fiat, and finally to desire to wield that authority themselves.
Although the characteristics of their outward appearance have often been taken as typical of “troubled youth” and have been employed as melodramatic indicators of such in movies and television, this is actually a pretty sanguine lot. The distinguishing feature of their emotional comportment is a high and unshakeable self-esteem. They are not troubled by anxiety nor do they deeply question the social structure around them. These people simply take the most direct route to personal comfort that they can find; and as they become more efficient at this over time, they naturally gravitate to positions of institutional authority, mainly as a means of “avoiding difficulty.” Police officers, security guards, and also health workers, are often personalities of this type.
If you’re going to be doing police work, you can see how advantageous it is to not be the kind of person who is given over to much empathy, who engages himself in existential susurrations about who the real criminal is or what the person you’re currently arresting might have become if he had been given a better start in life. This is where “not questioning the social structure” comes in handy. It is a valuable trait to have in certain fields, but it is often indistinguishable from coldhearted stupidity.
As a side note, the psychological studies I’ve read make the case that those who listen to metal and hard rock tend to be just the type of people I’ve described above—emotionally well-adjusted and relatively free from inner conflict—while those who listen to softer music and progressive rock tend to have more complex and volatile personalities, and are continuously testing both themselves and the social norms even when they appear not to be. As someone whose playlist is bound to include The Eagles, Jackson Browne, Phil Collins, Pink Floyd, and Supertramp, I definitely fall into the latter category and I can vouch for the truth of that part of the study.
you 'grew up in the ghetto' but now you 'listen to jackson browne'?... really? i'm just sayin'... lol... all quibbles aside, yours was a thought-provoking post.
I remember that dude...always walkin' around with a crazy look, muttering "I'll put a cap in yo ass if you ain't down with Jackson Brown."
It isn't really that much of a stretch, gentlemen. My parents were ex-army vet hippies who didn't have much money. So yes, we lived in the ghetto and I was exposed to a wide array of '60s and '70s rock from my earliest boyhood on up. When I started to get myself sorted out and to recognize the distinction between my own real preferences and my upbringing, I stuck with the music from the past that I actually liked.
Don't get the wrong idea; I listen to plenty of Wu-Tang and Cypress Hill as I was growing up, too. I dropped all of that stuff as part of my effort to turn my life around, and I am especially happy now that I did it considering that those groups are, to put it mildly, "culturally biased against people like me."
I don't think white suburban wannabes realize that just because they're down with the minorities, that doesn't mean the minorities are down with them. Word?
I dunno - a majority. For the most part, I've had good interactions with cops. But then, I do th little things like say yes sir, no sir, take off my sunglasses if wearing them. I also wouldnt be in the street filming them as they're orderng people off.
But surely - threatening to shoot a guy with an iPhone and a punk attitude is over the line. I'm not willing to concede this country is so fucked it's not over the line.
On the other hand - NYPD and LAPD and forces of any size think of themselves as an above the law domestic army and they run as many criminal schemes as the Italian mob.
As long as you don't ever argue anything with a cop, you're pretty safe. Being white helps as well.
Once when I was given a $170 ticket for failure to wear a seat belt, I just said that it was a steep fine for a guy working an honest day's job ... and the cop nearly went bezerk at the suggestion he wasn't honest.
Most cops are assholes and for the most part, we don't need them to harrass people going about their business and driving to work.
Traffic cops are the TSA equivalent on the roads.
As much as I appreciate your train of thought, what you fail to realize is that most cops are pro Constitution, including the second-amendment, so one day he'll be the only thing standing between you and the federal government that comes to take you away for not going along with some one-world big brother nonsense.
This cop being hounded by a bunch of sociopathic paparazzi trying to cause incidents like this is not a real example of anything other than how obnoxious the faux-press can be and how much they've convinced us that we should be anti-police, and in turn, pro-big government. Even your beloved Hollywood actors get tired of their BS.
"sociopathic paparazzi"
Said one jack-booted storm-trooper to another.
Are you not living in the same reality as the rest of us?
Same reality, different perspectives. Keeps life interesting.
Sir, reality is my stock-in-trade. I sense reality the way an eagle senses thermals, and wolf senses fear.
That cop showed incredible self control! I mean come on, if this had been 1987 and he was Sean Penn, those reporters would have gotten the piss beat out of them.
Most cops are pro- 2nd amendment?
I guess that is always why they ask you for a permit if you are exercising that "right," right?
lulz
pods
You're confusing 'them doing their job' with 'what they believe'.
I won't claim ALL cops are pro-2nd amendment, but a strong majority are (though that is certainly changing as younger, brainwashed-by-mass-media generations begin to fill the ranks).
I just care enough to remind us that there's a purposeful attempt being made by the media and the PTB to cause division and distrust between us and the police. Just keep that in mind, and don't be so quick to go along with it.
I have said this too, I support freedom of the press, but it is clear the press are goading some of this on. Cops/protesters/press/world feedback, there is a negative synergy fueling this. Meanwhile, if the cops did not have this history of acting this way, anyway, none of this is possible.
This individual cop (Wilson) may in fact be innocent. The handling of this makes them look like the insane clown possee (apologies to the actual band by that name).
I distrust the police because of the police. The media and PTB had nothing to do with it.
Please show me a study that says a "strong majority" of police are pro 2A.
As much as I appreciate yours... guys like this are all over, say, the NYPD. Fact.
They will gladly break your skull if it means collecting that pension.
I don't think anyone should be anti-police - anarchists are fucking idiots.
But we should all be anti-this guy.
Fuck this guy.
p.s. not that it matters or that you likely care, I didn't "junk" you - I hear you.
Agree completely. And certainly some departments are worse than others. NYPD is notorious.
I have to agree. These people are not journalists. They are liberal yuppie hipsters trying to get instagram followers. There hasnt been a 'journalist' in America in at least 20 years.
Not saying the cop isnt an asshole. Im just saying the journalists are usually assholes too. They're not reporting for you. . .
Give me a break. A cop is supposed to be professional. Anyone who can't act like a professional and let insults roll off their back doesn't deserve to be a cop in the first place.
I don't know about this duchebag but First Responders don't have any laws that they have to abide by and no papers or reports to file. They are officially sanctioned shadow government personnel. When I worked with them in 2005 they seemed like they were training to diffuse potentially socially disruptive situations that could grow out of control as well as natural disasters. The person in charge of the group I knew was a little old Jewish lady on the Forbes Who's Who list of top 100 most influential people in the world.
I asked her, "how do these people get to be part of this group?" She pulled a nickel out of her purse, handed it to me and said, "I hand pick each and everyone of them." I thought that was like really weird that some lady could chose a team of Marines, Communications specialists (Pac Bell). FBI, DHS, CIA and so on to be a shadow government force beyond the reproach of law.
Anyhow I'm sure many people out there know directly of these groups. Anyhow if SHTF if as I suspect they will, people or military that want to see law and order and morality restored, go directly after the most prominent bankers that are funding these types of dangerous and illegal operations and some how bring them to justice the whole globalist centrally controlled idea global dominance will quickly disappear.
One problem is that tech has become so powerful at this point that if the masses lose their individual right and wrong none of us will survive. We need a distributed form of government shared by all individuals to match the powers that technology has already made available. From what I've seen so far the globalists are going about this in the most absolute wrong way.
this is your brain before doununts, this is your brain on doununts
We get the rulers we deserve. And the praetorians who protect htem.
Hey, no problem, he didn't have his finger on the trigger.....
exceptional..again
Where might he be encountered?
I'd bet Cop Block in less than a month
He may earn a timeout before he gets to play with big boy toys again.
Fucking paparazzi. They are just as bad as any aggressive cops.
Yeah just like paparazzi, except for the tanks
Yeah, one bad photo can ruin your entire day.
I'm really sorry you wouldn't be able to read your beloved gossip rag drivel without them, but anyone who's had to put up with their privacy-invasive, antagonistic horsecrap knows better.
So that justifies this cops behavior does it?
Apparently. Good to know that's how it is now.
Venezuela?
Iraq?
Liberia?
Columbia?
America?
Afghanistan?
Syria?
.....
Who the hell is running this police response?
Frankly, I think having the night shift police officers dress up as flesh eating zombies and have them stumbling around asking for "more brains" would be more efficacious.
Ya, no, I'm not sure what "efficacious" would mean in this context but I want flesh eating zombie cops and I want them in Furgie right away.
There's a reason there's no zombies in Fergie, nobody there has any brains.
OK, so why wasn't this guy FIRED this morning.
Bad for morale.
You can't fire him cause that would set a bad precedent.
Everyone must get a service star for this.
What I find most amusing is the assumption by the reporters that the police will be lawful, and rational. These kids in their 20's have been living through a mobile phone screen and reality is far different.
"Did he just threaten to kill me?"
Yes he did son, one sneeze and you would be dead. Welcome to the real world, not the make believe one.
Why is this real world something we have to accept? Because you like it this way? What do you like about it exactly?
You don't.
However there is a word for those who are unwilling or unable to accept reality. "Deluded".
I am unwilling to accept that a psychotic cop can with one event create an entirely new alternative reality.
So now cops are killing people at-will? That's the real world and I'm crazy for fighting reality?
What is wrong with you people?
No. I do not accept this. It happened but it is not the real world. It is not the way we do things. These people are not cut from the cloth of the human species. It is just a sick little man in a sick little town in the middle of a country that at one time held sick people responsible for their illness. It is delusion to think sickness can now define how we all live. It is psychotic and defeatist. We have never before allowed psychosis to define our values, we never allowed the inmates to run the entire country. We have collective values, we stand for those, and we do not allow one or a few individuals to inform us of what we have become overnight because they want to avoid responsibility for their own damaged mental health.
I'm not sure I can deal anymore with the level of detachment I keep running into here.
I like you Cougar, you are a smart mother fucker and always take the time to explain yourself rationally. +1
OK---- then can you accept that they are all heros??
What?!? Christ on a pencil -- is paying attention too hard for you?
Waste of time. Half the people who post here are clinically stupid.
Wrong word in this case. "Dead."
You can be righter than right and your case can stand up in court, but that gun pointing asshole has already shown he has poor gun discipline. Here are some rules it is clear he has broken:
#Every gun is always loaded, thus...
#Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot. (okay I checked, his finger is straight, not hooked in the trigger)
#Never aim your gun at something you do not intend to destroy.
#Make sure there is nothing beyond what you are aiming your gun at that you would not want to hit. You want to make sure the field is clear.
Cougar is right about their poor psychologcal training, but I question their gun training and that makes them very dangerous. Taunting a dumbass with a gun could get you killed, even if you know he is in the wrong.
.
Do you think that "badge" would have shot Jonny Carson in the face for asking a question?
What would the news print? Jonny Carson of the late show shot while asking for the name of an office worker.
I'm not sure his reaction is so surprising. "Did he just threaten to kill me?" Shit, I would be a little bewildered by that too, heavy smartphone usage or not.
ROFL!
You know the trouble with Timothy Treadwell? He just HAD to keep POKING the bears!
thank you, thank you all. Try the veal!
The moral of the story is that sometimes Life aint fair. But it's always real. You steps to the table and your rolls them fucking dice and when you get snake eyes you lose. Those dumbasses about got shot for what? Rioting blacks near a generic 7-11 in Red-Dick, Flyover country.
but hey, if that's the hill you're standing on, go get em tiger!
He has been removed, yeah BULLSHIT. This is what municipal unions are for. He'll be collecting checks from you whether you want it or not.
I'll pay to have the guy off the streets and not wearing a badge.
We're going to be paying a lot for all kinds of crap we let slide, of late.
I know not all cops are like this, but I can't help but think there is one bad apple that only cares about stirring up trouble and is just itching to live his Call of Duty fantasy in shooting a protestor or journalist. I really, really hope that it never gets to that, but when you get access to all the shiny military gear... everyone starts to look like a target.

Psychotic. They'll call it PTSD and give him a full pension for it. With any luck he'll drink himself to death.
"With any luck he'll drink himself to death."
I'm buying!
Maybe he'll go "Leaving Las Vegas" for the benefit of his family and the American people.
An American, not US subject.
By the way, just so you don't forget.
While this happy horseshit is going on, these folks are trying their damnedest to disarm you:
http://thezog.wordpress.com/who-is-behind-gun-control/
The people he is threatening to kill also happen to pay his salary. How's that for irony?
Bullshit. The people do not pay anything but the interest on the National Debt.
Thr Federal Reserve pays the salaries of these jackbooted thugs.
Most cops will laugh at you when you say they pay their salary. They know better and keep quiet as they are complicit in the raping of the US Treasury.
They are nothing more than the thieves that they laim that they are protecting you from.
This will piss off the cops on this comment thread. But they know that it is the truth. (They cannot have it both ways...)
Yup! To serve and protect ... the bankers.
The police are taking their cue from the catholic church, just relocate him.
So is this it? Looks like that ball really wants to get rolling. From here it's not too hard to see the end game. Protests spread, civil unrest comes to the boil-welcome to the American Spring. Pretty soon some of the really smart investors in USD start to edge to that door with a bit fat EXIT sign, some of the smart-but-not that-smart notice the movement.Then it's on. Make sure you're the first guy to panic.
I don't know what you're going to buy your girl for Christmas 2015, but you won't be using USD.
Oh America, where did you go?
The old broad is around 238 years old.
She just got tired and laid down and died.
NYPD has a spot
Police, at all times, should maintain a relationship with the public that gives reality to the historic tradition that the police are the public and the public are the police; the police being only members of the public who are paid to give full-time attention to duties which are incumbent upon every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence.Sir Robert Peel.
The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent upon the public approval of police actions.
Tony gets it.
Piece of FUCKEN trash cop, I enjoy all the press these assholes are receiving it about time people see these losers for who and what they are.
The interesting thing I see here is that nobody seemed to feel threatened by this jackass's gun pointing. The law of diminishing returns on display.
Until they start actually, you know, pulling the trigger.
My guess is people might start to react differently when that happens.
Cops elbow hanging out and threatening to kill non-combatants is sure sign of training deficiency desk jockey. Journalist was looking for a fight/story and provoking the cop. Not a good idea when the shitbirds are throwing jars of piss and Molotovs at you. Kent State will look like a walk in the park.
Good cops are about as rare as rocking horse shit these days. They've all left. All that exists now are the bad, and the really terrible.
Shooting at anything that moves.
Is it just me, or does this feel like a powder keg with a slow burning fuse that refuses to go out?
exactly
Relocated to the next DISTRICT ( TINDERBOX ) 'cause HE has the attitude they want/need.
An ordinary criminal/zealot like him is currently residing in GITMO.
Follow this fuck and if GOLDMAN / JPM have an IPO on him get on early.
And that's what happens when you lower IQ standards for being a cop as well as not drug testing for steroids.

This is how you deal with negroes in Missouri.
No way they are going to get insurance for this town for under 10 X what they are paying now. They will be canceled, if not already, from thier current carrier; lets see when they start raising property taxes how many of these "officers" will still be around.
You guys really don't get it, keep pounding on your little keyboards isolated in your so called virtual reality instead of actually living and gaining some experience. You probably think that what cops do is a joke, jokes on you or will be soon enough.
What the fuck are these so called journalists doing there anyway, covering the ritual bone tossing by the savages?
End the Fed.
Ummm recording the truth???
Hope you forgot the sarc tag.
If not, fuck you.
Americans gave up on the truth a long time ago. Conspiracies and chem-trails or GTFO.
On the plus side most people around here are too stupid to notice what I'm really doing. As a result I can do pretty much as I like.
So we can mark you down as opposed to freedom of the press, then?
Was it by living and gaining experience that you became such a clueless, statist cunt?
I have some experience DoucheNozzle, having been in LA during the Rodney King riots and New Orleans during Katrina. I learned to stay as far away from the cops as possible.
Are you crying right now? I can't tell for sure.
Please Advise,
This is it man. The fascist FED b ankers have paid and trained the internal police agencies including the DHS to turn the United States of America into a NAZI FED backed state. If you and your decendents have any hopes for the future you better be prepared to fight them like our grandfathers fought the Nazis. These bastards are being trained provocoteered and tested right before your eyes. We had them all there: the CIA, FBI, DHS, First Responders, National Guard, Police and fire department. That is exactly the groups I made a promotional video for (all included in First Responders back then) in 2005. They work for the globalists and they are going to take America down.
So, Dudes stop being so queer before its too late.
Not looking to excuse his behaviour but look at that last photo. That guy is fucking scared!
The protesters are dead (seriously six to the body and head, dead) once the camera eye moves on.
So another false flag is coming like 9/11, then cops are hero's again? Easy.
The Department of Homeland Shooters (DHS) has a need for cops that are trigger-happy. Willing to shoot anyone, even children, we have a job for you. We have billions of rounds ammunition that needs to be used.
This fucking asshole needs to be in jail!
The good cops need to get a sock and bar of soap and beat the shit out this douchebag.
No. This asshole needs to be hanged.
You forgot the blanket.
Yeah...Pigs in a Blanket.
LOL. Who knew cops were this stupid.
That's your best shot? Why even comment? It's not that cops are stupid. It's that you have become property, without free will, and the people in control are no longer worried about letting you know.
Would be Interesting to See the Leader of the New Black Panthers confront one of these type "Roid-Heads".
Not that I want anyone hurt. Actually the Officer above, LEO, looks a little afraid, could be he is afraid that he is going to shoot someone.
You don't want LEOs who are emotional in this way. I always thought that was a factor in Zimmerman taking a gun, getting out of his car, and following Treyvon Martin. A guy with a gun can get jumped and if we was afraid to begin with "Death by Mis-adventure" is a lot more likely.
National Guard at Kent State all over again.
NOZZLE: "You guys really don't get it,.........."
Hahahaha we get it. It's called dumbing down the police officers..........
It's working wonderfully.
No need to dumb them down. They come pre-programmed by the pubic skools.
I know the police chief of Ferguson was trained in Israeli and I have to wonder if this chap was along for that ride.
Perhaps a relocation to the Mexican border is in order?
And let's relocate these reporters to Iraq.
The cops, the media, and the blacks... this whole shit show gives me tired head.
Is it so hard to believe that maybe, just maybe another cop might have 'lost it' just like this one?
I am putting it to paper now, (as if that matters). I predict the police know that Brown did have his hands up and was trying to surrender and that Wilson did open fire and kill him BUT.........that will still count as a justified shooting because he was DAZED from the previous punch from Brown and still felt imminent threat to his life,even though Brown was surrendering.
And that is how you spin killing an unarmed surrendering person.

Wilson suffered a fractured eye socket in the fracas, and was left dazed by the initial confrontation, the source said.
There are good cops and then there are bad cops. I've dealt with both and the bad ones have NO business of providing service to the general community.
You'll find them in Saint Louis, Missouri and you'll find them in Lexington, Virginia.
Why the police continue to have them in their department is the question to ask. They are a known financial time bomb? Is the police union that powerful that they can allow misfits to expose the good cops to their recklessness?
Why the police continue to have them in their dept.? Because even if they do something terribly stupid, and get the dept. sued, it is the taxpayer that foots the bill, not his fellow officers. Not the union. The taxpayers!
Maybe Obama will sit down and have a beer with this guy and the fella with the iPhone and share a 'teachable moment' before hitting the links...
Police are the punching fist of the State, and its by and through them that the State enforces its will.

As a journalist, if I had .001 Bitcoin for every time this has happened to me I'd have enough fiat to buy Heidi Klum's homes, cameras and fibre optics. I'd also be so rich, I'd be self-righteous enough to never even peek at her sweet Seal-abandoned tulips.
This "gonna kill you" shit is a regular thing. If you're a good reporter, cops hate you more than the homeless.
Again, this is rule by words and tape; no evidence and it will give the mob a new scenario on white v. black. To the rule of law, asks Thomas Sowell of those who rush to judgment in Ferguson, “do you prefer the rule of the media and/or the mob?” Here’s Sowell’s piece (Aug. 20, 2014):
Mob Rules in Ferguson | Newsmax
Those of us who admit that we were not there, and do not know what happened when Michael Brown was shot by a policeman in Ferguson, Missouri, seem to be in the minority.
We all know what has happened since then — and it has been a complete disgrace by politicians, the media, and mobs of rioters and looters. Despite all the people who act as if they know exactly what happened, nevertheless when the full facts come out, that can change everything.
This is why we have courts of law, instead of relying on the media or mobs. But politics is undermining law.
On the eve of a grand jury being convened to go through the facts and decide whether there should be a prosecution of the policeman in this case, Gov. Jay Nixon of Missouri has gone on television to say that there should be a "vigorous prosecution."
There was a time when elected officials avoided commenting on pending legal processes, so as not to bias those processes. But Gov. Nixon apparently has no fear of poisoning the jury pool.
The only alternative explanation is that this is exactly what he intends to do. It is a disgrace either way.
Race is the wild card in all this. The idea that you can tell who is innocent and who is guilty by the color of their skin is a notion that was tried out for generations, back in the days of the Jim Crow South. I thought we had finally rejected that kind of legalized lynch law. But apparently it has only been put under new management.
Television people who show the home of the policeman involved, and give his name and address — knowing that he has already received death threats — are truly setting a new low. They seem to be trying to make themselves judge, jury, and executioner.
Then there are the inevitable bullet counters asking, "Why did he shoot him six times?" This is the kind of thing people say when they are satisfied with talking points, and see no need to stop and think seriously about a life-and-death question. If you are not going to be serious about life and death, when will you be serious?
By what principle should someone decide how many shots should be fired? The bullet counters seldom, if ever, ask that question, much less try to answer it.
Since the only justifiable reason for shooting in the first place is self-protection, when should you stop shooting? Obviously when there is no more danger. But there is no magic number of shots that will tell you when you are out of danger.
Even if all your shots hit, that doesn't mean anything if the other guy keeps coming and is still a danger. You can be killed by a wounded man.
Different witnesses give conflicting accounts of exactly what happened in the shooting of Michael Brown. That is one of the reasons why grand juries collect facts. But, if Michael Brown — a 6-foot-4-inch, 300-pound man — was still charging at the policeman, as some allege, there is no mystery why the cop kept shooting.
But, if Michael Brown was surrendering, as others allege, then there was no reason to fire even one shot. But the number of shots tells us nothing.
None of this is rocket science. Why bullet counters cannot be bothered to stop and think is a continuing mystery.
Among the other unthinking phrases repeated endlessly is, "He shot an unarmed man." When does anyone know that someone is unarmed? Unless you frisk him, you don't know — until, of course, after you have shot him.
The only time I ever pointed a firearm at a human being, I had no idea whether he was armed or unarmed. To this day I don't know whether he was armed or unarmed. Fortunately for both of us, he froze in his tracks.
Was I supposed to wait until I made sure he had a gun before I used a gun? Is this some kind of sporting contest?
Some critics object when someone with a gun shoots someone who only has a knife. Do those critics know that you are just as dead when you are killed with a knife as you are when you are killed by a gun?
If we can't be bothered to stop and think, instead of repeating pat phrases, don't expect to live under the rule of law. Do you prefer the rule of the media and/or the mob?

In all fairness, the Ferguson police have been polluting the jury pool as well throughout this debacle by releasing other details unrelated to the incident in question. That tape in the convenience store likely won't make it into evidence in court if the cop is prosecuted, so what better way to make the public aware of it then by "leaking" it to the press and polluting the jury pool that way?
Both sides are using every mechanism they can to influence the trial later, just FYI.
This man gets it. WE DON'T KNOW AND NO ONE IS WILLING TO WAIT FOR A FUCKING TRIAL.
Trials take too long. We want someone lethally injected within the hour.
Darren Wilson, the Ferguson, Mo., police officer whose fatal shooting of Michael Brown touched off more than a week of demonstrations, suffered severe facial injuries, including an orbital (eye socket) fracture, and was nearly beaten unconscious by Brown moments before firing his gun, a source close to the department's top brass told FoxNews.com.
“The Assistant (Police) Chief took him to the hospital, his face all swollen on one side,” said the insider. “He was beaten very severely.”
According to the well-placed source, Wilson was coming off another case in the neighborhood on Aug. 9 when he ordered Michael Brown and his friend Dorain Johnson to stop walking in the middle of the road because they were obstructing traffic. However, the confrontation quickly escalated into physical violence, the source said.
“They ignored him and the officer started to get out of the car to tell them to move," the source said. "They shoved him right back in, that’s when Michael Brown leans in and starts beating Officer Wilson in the head and the face."
The source claims that there is "solid proof" that there was a struggle between Brown and Wilson for the policeman’s firearm, resulting in the gun going off – although it still remains unclear at this stage who pulled the trigger. Brown started to walk away according to the account, prompting Wilson to draw his gun and order him to freeze. Brown, the source said, raised his hands in the air, and turned around saying, "What, you're going to shoot me?"
At that point, the source told FoxNews.com, the 6-foot-4, 292-pound Brown charged Wilson, prompting the officer to fire at least six shots at him, including the fatal bullet that penetrated the top of Brown's skull, according to an independent autopsy conducted at the request of Brown's family.
Wilson suffered a fractured eye socket in the fracas, and was left dazed by the initial confrontation, the source said. He is now "traumatized, scared for his life and his family, injured and terrified" that a grand jury, which began hearing evidence on Wednesday, will "make some kind of example out of him," the source said….

Bad Journalism, Lying Journalism.
What a fucking thug cop. Unfucking believable!!!
I have been working on a fictional treatment of a similar scenario. The basic idea is that civil disobedience on a remarkably small scale can achieve its goals because the police are not able to adequately respond. What are their choices?
1. They can issue citations and make arrests.
That plays right into my hands in that these things cost money for .gov to prosecute and my resistors (the Brothers) are very thoroughly judgement-proof. They ignore all this paperwork and fines mean nothing to them. Gonna lock them up? All of them? For what? Swimmng in the court house fountain? That's going to keep them off the street for a long time. </sarc>
2. Give them the Rodney King treatment.
Despite the occasional shooting, and somewhat more frequent assults, police actions are heavily biased again opening fire and slaughtering en masse.
As this article shows, a few resistors armed with cell phones can goad police into foolish action. This cop could very likely be made an example of his. He can kiss his job and pension goodbye. Next to go will be wife, house, and kids when he's not the rich man anymore. This man has fucked with the Brothers and has lost big-time.
And just as this individual cop has lost, so can the City, County, State, Feds, and Federation lose it. Why all these threatrics? Why doesn't .gov just quietly arrest these rioters/protesters, one by one, until they're all gone? It would be easy to pick them apart individually until the crowd evaporates. But .gov can't do that because it's too expensive to warehouse and prosecute lots of people. And they'd all walk in a day or two anyway. Ready to rinse, wash, and repeat.
Looting and violence plays right into their hands. Let this article remind us that their power is substantially attenuated in the face of non-violent resistance.
Looks to me like a loser with a badge, what makes him special that he gets to carry a gun and kill others when he is angry? What is it about govt that allows the lowest of humanity to lord it over the rest of us? Why do people support govt anyway given the type of people it attracts?
Dark folk need to become more docile, like the light folk!
If I was cop I’d shoot white kids, nobody cares. And later, just lose the tape.

Remove the teeth of that cop with an Ice Pick. North Koreans would.
why does that copper look at lot like hank schrader from breaking bad?
This guy's badge needs to be pulled immediately. This is far worse than the Coneticut cop who was recorded saying that Obama shredded the Constitution. That cop was "voluntarily retired" within days. This hot head is simply a dangerous loose cannon with self-worth and anger management issues. Absolutely unacceptable and unsuitable for this kind of work.
