Bond hearing in 2 parts.
The hearing, totally not a show force

Not guilty, next.
Sad fact: American police training involves teaching them to shout “drop the weapon” or similar after they shoot someone. Specifically because it sticks in the mind of witnesses and makes it easier to get away with shooting unarmed suspects.
based as fuck, a hero TBH
I think the father’s point is that the system is broken; not that he got revenge on his son’s specific killer, just some revenge on the system as a whole.
When the cops back the blue, when they lie and cheat to cover up their coworkers’ misdeeds, they all become targets…
And look, my friend, this is old news. We have said for decades that either cops regulate themselves or they will be regulated by the people. Even now, this message is still falling on deaf ears.
We all know who the real criminals are. The people in uniforms with badges and guns, who love to target minorities, who lie every day of their lives, under oath and on the stand, and pretend they’re not the bad guys because it was their coworker who did the horrible action, not them, they only stood by and watched.
Of course any death is sad. My heart goes out to both families. Also, if you want the problem to be solved, you start by locking up the dirty pigs, not by accusing the general public of … checks notes … understanding the current state of reality.
True father.
Can feel that eye contact through the screen Jesus christ
Based as fuck, if more Americans had his balls we’d never have the fascism that Bush started.
Wilson really kicked it off. Nixon and Reagan got the ball momentum. I don’t remember if Bush Sr. had a crime bill. Clinton poured fuel on the fire with his and Biden’s Crime Bill. Then W sealed the deal with the Patriot Act, among some other bits of SCOTUS shenanigans.
