128. Turn them into whom?
Edited on Thu Apr-22-10 02:51 PM by ieoeja
When an off-duty police officer was caught on tape kicking and beating a tiny, female bartendar, the police rallied to his support.

When evidence proves a man wrongfully incarcerated, the cops go into a rage when the man is set loose.

I don't know if Hasan Ben Drinken knows any cops, but it's a damn good bet you do *not* know many cops. I lived a block from a cop shop before they moved it a few years back. The bar across the street from the old building is still a cop bar. I was there one night when an innocent man was let out of prison, and the cops were screaming bloody murder.

"But he didn't do it?"

"If he didn't do that, he sure as hell did something we just haven't caught him for!"

"Why do you say that?"

"What the fuck is your problem! Don't you have eyes! Look at the mother-fucking sonofabitch!"

Ignoring the fact they are determining criminality based on nothing more than the man's appearance, I replied, "he's been in prison the last twenty years. What do you expect him to look like? The cover of GQ?"

"He's just a no good, fucking nigger who'll kill and rape more women now that he is out."


Ah, yes! I had almost forgot that bit. He was on death row for killing and raping some woman. But the Innocence Project got to his case before he was executed.


So to whom do we report these guys? Obviously not one of the cops above, and there were quite a number of them, would give a shit.

Let me assure you, I have heard these and other cops bragging many times about abusing prisoners, planting evidence, etc. Most of those I've met carries a "throw away" to plant on someone they shoot if they can't find a gun so that there will be no "accidental shootings".

Even if I knew an honest, say, state prosecutor, it wouldn't do any good. Hal Badcop brags about planting some evidence at a crime scene. He doesn't provide a case number, name of the perp, or the date and time. Even with all that, all I have is inadmissable heresay. And every cop in the place will testify that I hate cops and am making it up.

And useful idiots like you will believe them.

No, Hassan ben Drinken and I are not as bad as them. You are. Because your gullibility shields them.


And then there is the other point. They just may be talking shit. Maybe none of these cops have ever done anything they claimed. Or maybe, after a few drinks, they exagerate the claims. Or start bragging about the real shit and end up making up something in an effort to do outdo one another.
