The one common factor in all the incidents? People not STFU and resisting arrest. You have to have a low digit IQ if you think mouthing off, talking back, and being aggressive with a cop is going to end well for you.
he wasn't killed for mouthing off, he was killed while attempting to drive off in a car

Sometimes when I read the comments...wow, unreal.
Did the OP just skip right past some of you?
Did you hear the wanna be cop lying to the officers about Tensing being dragged?
Did you see Tensing chase down the car as if the man really drove off? He knows he just shot the man in the head ffs can we stay on point here.
The guy in car DID NOTHING to deserve being shot in the head and murdered, he didn't even have time to respond or resist for that matter. Bottom f****** line!

Would like to add two things I just saw:
1) Kidd is also on administrative leave (don't know if that's new or not)
2) the shooter just bonded out of jail.
Afterward, Tensing's lawyer, Stewart Mathews, said he would do his best to raise the money to get his client out of jail Thursday, and Tensing left the Hamilton County jail hours later after spending the night behind bars. Anyone can post 10% of a $1 million bond, an amount that can be raised through a lien on a house

Ray Tensing, the former University of Cincinnati police officer accused of murder for shooting to death an unarmed motorist, had been an Ohio State trooper but walked off the job after one day, according to a new report.
Tensing reported to the Ohio State Highway Patrol's 26-week academy in 2013, but quit because he "couldn't adapt to the training environment," said patrol spokesman Sgt. Vincent Shirley, according to a Thursday report in The Enquirer.
The state is processing a public records act filed by the newspaper. Shirley said he did not have any other information about Tensing.
The 25-year-old pleaded not guilty Thursday to the murder of Samuel DuBose, who was shot and killed by Tensing during a traffic stop on July 19 in downtown Cincinnati. He later posted 10% of his $1 million bail and was released Thursday evening, WCPO-TV reported.

No where in your post did you mention "attempting to drive off". Therefore I didnt address it. You mentioned STFU and resisting arrest. None of which applies to Dubose's encounter with Tensing because he was polite and Tensing had to cause for arrest.
But now you want to bring up the driving off... Ok.
Your words:
he wasn't killed for mouthing off, he was killed while attempting to drive off in a car
And thats the point. At least you can see he was killed FOR nothing. You were careful not to say "he was killed FOR driving off in a car". Because that wouldve made you look pretty effing ridiculous. But you still indirectly admitted he was killed for nothing.
And yes, things happened in a matter of seconds, as did this incident. And Tensing made a horrible decision. And he will be held accountable for his horrible decision/reaction.
Thats a huge part of the discussion... ACCOUNTABILITY.

And he might, or maybe he got the funds from family and friends.
Cops usually don't let cops sit in jails, it isn't a great place for them to be.
To be perfectly honest I don't give a damn what his financials are. His bond was totally fair. He got bonded out. How he got bonded out really doesn't matter because it means nothing. He was never going to sit in jail for very long if there was a bond set.

He instead chose to attempt to drive off thus causing the officer to draw his weapon and fire. Cause and effect buddy.
At this point, I'm sure cops are just going to be like F' it. Let the animals run the zoo. These guys are in a no win situation.
THere was a cop killed a few weeks ago. Pulled a car over and got blasted before he even got to the window of the car.
