Could care less about his wife and kids.
What about the children of the people and the people who've been beaten, murdered or wrongly imprisoned by scumbags like him, who've planted drugs or wepons on them just for a collar. They didn't give a rats ass that those kids lives were destroyed.
Suspended for a few days?. He should have his teeth kicked down his throat then both of his arms snapped in 1/2. F44k his wife and kids.

Who is accepting responsibility for being in charge? Let's see who this gets passed to.

It took OWS a couple of days to identify the officer. So how long will this investigation take? long enough for it to be out of the public's mind?
Because we have seen time and time again exactly how LEO polices itself.

So when a cop faces an investigation, do they have to hire an attorney or suffer with a public pretender(defender) like a citizen?
Or do they get special representation?

But civilians get to pay a little more.
If I made a fatal mistake on the job I doubt Id get a month off with pay while my boss asseses damage.

Okay, next time I get in trouble I'll ask a PBA paid union lawyer to come in place of the public defender.
I'll ask my own companty to investigate, and i'll ask for my paycheck to be sent to my house while it's all being worked out.
I'll ask for it all to be done in private, and my companies affiliates will decide the outcome.

punishing the cop and any other cop after that is not going to fix the problem till those commanding the police force are dealt with

Arrest anyone you find doing these things, I don't care. Throw the book at em'.
But go after the cops who do dirty as hard as you do the rest of us, or even harder (because their job is to promote justice).
We all know rock throwers and bottle tossers get arrested when they are identified and caught. Good job! Now -- go after the cop who threw the grenade at the peaceful protesters who were trying to drag a wounded man to safety, and we will have nothing to disagree about.edit on 1-11-2011 by 0zzymand0s because: (no reason given)

...and a civilian should behave in a manner that doesnt place anyone else in danger. If you want to hold the police accoutible for tossing a flash bang / tear gas into the crowd, then should those in the crowd who threw rocks / glass bottles / paint etc at law enforcement be held to the same standard you and others are applying to law enforcment?
Accountability is everyones business, not just the police the government etc, but the citizens as well.

People need to take responsibility for their OWN actions, especially the police. If this were WWII a Nazi would still be a Nazi, following chain of command or not.

sorry you're embedded quote clearly states "except for Treason, Felony, or Breach of Peace" so yes they CAN be arrested, for breach of peace, for creating the whole OWS movement itself, and it may even border on Treason,
READ your words

We know a cop tossed a grenade. Putting Jesus in charge of the the investigation will just make the end-story more retarded.
Arrest, try and send to prison the cop who threw that grenade. You may take all the rock throwers and bottle tossers you can carry.

Im sorry I didnt realize that when you guys were complaining about the government taking rights way that what you were really stating was you wanted to take the rights away from those who dont agree with you.
People say the cops use of tear gas / flash bangs is wrong.
I say the people throwing rocks and glass and paint at law enforcement are wrong.
You dont get it both ways.

I don't care what caused the injury, and neither do the cops when a drunk driver is involved in an "accident."
All that matters is the grenade tosser tossed a grenade at unarmed civilians attempting to rescue a wounded man. That should merit some serious charges. In fact -- in war -- it's called a "war crime."edit on 1-11-2011 by 0zzymand0s because: (no reason given)
