He lowered his window, handed his license over, and put his windows back up. The officer felt safe enough to stand by the widow for half a minute, knocking on the glass. The argument that the situation was threatening holds zero water and is just bootlicker cope.

The officer can make all kinds of demands, but if they don't fall under the procedures they are required to follow, then it's on the officer. The lack of following procedures is likely why the officer is suspended and will hopefully no longer be on the force. The excessive use of force is also going to result in tax payers paying millions to the recipient of the assault.

Disrespecting a police officer is not an invitation for police brutality. You are a bootlicker for having this mentality.

Police officers should be professionals and try to use the least violent means necessary, and if there is even a hint of excess, they should be deemed unfit to hold the power of authority over others. Police should be reactive on the escalation ladder, only using violence when they receive violence. However, police are given a carte blanche to do violence by claiming in any interaction that they felt threatened, giving them impunity and why we're here today.

It's not a 'sale'. It's a handout to the welfare apartheid state, while Americans are wondering why their roads are falling apart, their education sucks and no universal health care.

80% of her base wants to stop sending weapons to Israel. Where the fuck is democracy?

Who said that? I'd be happy for the people who did Oct 7th to be brought to justice. I doubt you'd say the same for the criminals in Israel's leadership and military.

I doubt you'd say the same.

The past hundred or so 'IDF reports' have been complete lies. Maybe this one will be true.

I hope this will wake people up that our governments don't work for us and will lead to reform to hold leaders accountable for acting against the will of the people for their personal benefit.

The chutes didn't open. There's video. Having a heavy pallet crash through your roof can cause death. We're talking maybe half the weight of a car, traveling at faster than freeway speed.

The gall to say this when Israel is conducting a genocide and ethnic cleansing campaign.

This is the fallacy that America had with black gangs. They think gangs are the problem and the problem needs to be removed.

The reality is that gangs are a solution to problems, such as wealth inequality, racism, violence.

The solution to Hamas is to remove the conditions that made them necessary, which are apartheid, violence, forcible eviction, wealth inequality.

However, Israel's goals are the ethnic cleansing of the area, so this will never work for them. Talks of peace a tool of distraction. If this is not true, then they will return to the 1948 borders, which would make a viable Palestinian and Israeli state. But they'll, make bullshit excuses of why that's not possible.
