Statistics > your fee fees

I remember watching a video of K9 cops sicced a dog on a handcuffed black man a few years ago. That dog almost ripped that man's arm off

Police K-9s are grossly, disproportionately used against people of color

Reading hard.

They also use chemical weapons banned in warfare

The irony of this statement

But remember if you so much as brush the dog you're thrown in prison for assaulting an officer.

is that better than guns?

That was like 8 months ago. Unless you're talking about another. Probably happens daily.

Nah this was a while back, three years ago.

It's on YouTube but it'll get modded if I post it.

On the topic of statistics

The bureau of justice did a study many years ago and found that despite black people making up 13% of the U.S. population, more than half of all homicides are committed by black offenders

I know it is, but you'll get it soon, I promise. Let's try another exercise to try to simplify things for you:

Fact 1: Police use K9s when suspects flee or resist.
Fact 2: Police use K9s more often for Group A than they are for Group B.
Therefore, Group A is more likely to ________________________ .

Come on, you got this bro!

Real Life Xeth: I put my hands up for a standard stop n chat cuz crime in the area and totally submit to multiple searches and the dept. still sends literally the entire squad & a portion of the other district to come say hi when I go for a walk.

I understand why.

Follow suit

Breaking News: American cops are racist.

When will people stop being surprised at this? People act surprised then go back to not caring the next day.

Its not even worth talking about anymore. Anyone who doesnt see it at this point simply doesnt want to. Its beyond obvious.

From the article that I know you didn't even bother to look at.

"A woman hes currently representing, Laureen Frausto, was sleeping in an abandoned West Covina, California, post office two years ago when she woke up to a police dog mauling her arm, according to a lawsuit Lacy filed."

I guess she was sleep walking or something right?

Strongly concur.

f*** attack dogs.

And if they shoot your dog, they get no punishment

What exactly is your point here? Completely irrelevant to the topic at hand.

Lowkey racist post.

But if a cop assaults a police dog, then nothing happens

And I'm sure a police dog has definitely never mistakenly bitten a white person or anything. No, this is totally the first time it's ever happened to anyone, ever. And it was all because she was black. Definitely.

I believe because someone earlier said something about statistics and fee fees.

---

So here's the thing. If a cop uses a dog against someone who's giving up or already restrained, they should go to jail for attempted murder.

I have a hard time feeling sympathy for people who are actively running or resisting though. Fuck em.

Still makes no sense and completely undermined TCs point by bringing up completely irrelevant statistics.

Serves no purpose in the context of the discussion.

Why would you raise a goodboy as a narc dog anyway?
So cruel.

@PoundGarden

Not sure why you're tagging me. Cops shouldn't be doing that, and in the dogs defense, they are doing exactly what they were commanded and trained to do.

While obviously reprehensible, there's a world of difference between a dog being ordered to attack someone while still under full control of the prick that is handling them, and a pitbull attacking someone unprovoked for no reason while nobody has any level of control over the dog.

These are two seperate issues whos only common denominator is a dog attacking someone. I've no interest in debating this further.

Only reason I even said lowkey is because nobody else seemed to have a problem with it. That was very obviously racist to me but its whatever I guess.

Ironic how blatant racism can be ignored in a topic intended to acknowledge racism.

---

Reminds me of a bodycam video that was a bit questionable.

Had a black suspect hiding in a shower bathtub. Two officers enter with a k-9. The one officer finds the guy in the shower, knows he's there and they both take about a full minute to get the dog to notice and finally bite him out of the shower. Guy was just crouched/still as if wondering 'wtf' as the officers repeatedly try to get the dog to attack.

To add to this, even the dog seemed confused.

I'm against how K9 officers are used by the police. They shouldn't be biting people and in actual harms way.

Being pepper sprayed sucks and everything but I wish they were as liberal with that as they are with things that can do lasting damage.

There's another vid where the K9 went after someone who stole a car or was trying to drive away. The k9 was shot dead by 2-3 police while the handler shouted before going absolutely silent. You could feel his pain.
