This is so fucked up.
You know that family thought they were about to be executed.

Why the fuck is our police system so fucked up.

I'm sure they "fit the description" and the police were just "doing their job".

You know why as in what caused it to be this way, but not why as in why does stuff have to be this way.

Some men see things as they are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were, and ask why not.

Their explanation is basically that they followed procedure for a stolen vehicle and that procedures will change. They also said that there was confusion because the plates came up as stolen but that was actually a vehicle that had the same numbers from a different state. When they realized what had happened they released the family a few minutes later.

Pressing children's faces into hot asphalt for no, i repeat NO reason. There is no way I believe they didn't know they were looking for a motorcycle with a different state plate. These motherfuckers will never learn, and why should they if they never pay

Meeting the description of the car...the likely hood of that is astronomical. wtf?!

I hate that there's never any compensation/justice for the victims.

Apparently the story here is that the cops ran the license plate (with no probable cause) and the tag came back as a stolen car....but on a motorcycle registered in a different state. The police didnt look hard enough at the motorcycle/state part and instead just jumped to harassing this family for no legitimate reason. Incompetence at its finest.

It is incompetence but FYI you dont need PC to run a license plate

Im aware that PC is not needed to run a license plate, but doing so opens the door to questioning why the license plate was run in the first place. Maybe it truly was just a random search, but a lot of people will attach their own theories as to the motivations of the cops and the prevailing theory on Twitter l/Reddit right now is racism. *shrugs*

I dont think its racism. Tbh. Just a mistake of an idiot. I run every plate with my free right hand on computer that passes me. If Im stopped at a light every plate I read is getting ran.

what could also happen is that, some departments gave LPRs. Itll automatically scan plates and it could have hit the plate for being similar. Ive had something like that happen before but Im patient enough to read everything before you go lightning people up

It just pisses me off that there's never a dialog during arrests or detainments. The police carry on, assume they are doing nothing wrong, and ignore anything that challenges it.

If you need to cuff me first, fine. But then take 2 seconds to assess.

The Police Said...
Just following procedure.

This is the problem with police. They are mindless robots devoid of morality and common sense. They just "do it by the book" and that suddenly takes all the blame away from them. If everything is always done by the book, and procedure is followed to a tee then there is no reason for the police to not eventually be replaced by doordash robots.
