So tired of racist cops every day. People can't even live normal lives without being treated like dirt and white America won't care a bit.
The report clearly cited that the officer has a black friend. Therefore he cannot be racist. It's not possible.
This is my imagination the Boulder police officer's thought process:
"Hmm...I see...a black man. Okay, John you can do this. Do I radio for back up? No. It's just one guy. Wait, what is he doing? Is he stealing things that careless Boulderites might have accidentally left on the ground? No sir, that is not why I put on a gun everyday and protect the city of Boulder. NIMBY isn't just the unofficial town motto, it's our way of life. Not in my backyard today!
Ok. He's black. And young. But not young enough. But he's not old. And he's skinny. So that rules out, Buffaloes football player, Buffaloes basketball player, there are no black athletes on the ski team or the cross country team. Maybe the track team? Maybe he's a graduate assistant for one of the teams? I can't think of any other reason a black man would be in Boulder.
He must be a criminal."

Reading the article, it seems like the cop followed whatever protocol Boulder PD has. Instead of listening to the officers commands, the dude refused to put down the grabber. He's lucky he wasn't shot to death.
Yep. Black people iust need to comply and verify their right to exist upon demand.
You are drastically overcomplicating things.
"I'm bored. Wait, is that a black guy? Guess I'll harass him since I ain't got shit to do."
he was probably afraid to make any sudden movements. dropping a metal tool on the ground might seem aggressive to the officer and then he would shoot and taze the dude at the same damn time.
It's always funny to me that the so called superior race is soooo afraid of the people they deem inferior to them
My roommate and I were shooting a compound bow and a crossbow into a target we set up in the front yard of our apartment when I attended Colorado. The target was up against a backdrop of pallets and a fence.
Cops roll up. I have a bolt in the crossbow. My roommate is holding onto the bow.
They radio something. Get out of the car.
"Hey guys, you can't do that out here."
"Oh, okay."
"Before you bring it inside, can I try the crossbow?"
"Sure."
I guess we were just two non-black rascals with lethal projectile weapons having shenanigans.
He's definitely he lucky he wasn't shot to death for the crime of cleaning up his own yard.
And why the fuck was he stopped for questioning in the first place?
Because he's

And you don't see what is sad about that? Dude was literally picking up trash and you're saying it's his fault?
Not the cop that racially profiled him? Not the cop that escalated the situation for no reason to the point of pullling out a deadly weapon? Not the cop that uttered the pathetic cowardly bitch ass words, " I feel threatened," hundreds if not thousands of cops have used for shooting unarmed people?
Ya, but it's the dude picking up trashes fault for not getting on his knees and begging for his life to this cop.
This ain't the slave days when cops were meant to round up runaway slaves.
Yeah I'm sure the cop lost his job over this incident because he followed protocol. Sure.

Sleep tight, Black Era.
the "weapon" in question
$80k
Ahahahaha. White cop always wins
Ahahahah he still gets paid for this year
$80k
Ahahahaha. White cop always wins
you didnt tell me he was a goddamn cyborg!the "weapon" in question
only if i can sleep with my eyes open and clutching class 5 body armor.
gd it. i hope he doesn't also dream of being a police officer.
The two policies he was in violation of were, as described in the executive summary, as follows:
· Department rule 5 (Police authority and public trust): Members are entrusted to effectively, helpfully, and non-abusively use the authority and public trust vested in them.
· Department rule 8 (Conduct): Members use reasonable judgment and refrain from conduct which reflects unfavorably on the department.
· Department rule 5 (Police authority and public trust): Members are entrusted to effectively, helpfully, and non-abusively use the authority and public trust vested in them.
· Department rule 8 (Conduct): Members use reasonable judgment and refrain from conduct which reflects unfavorably on the department.
Smyly resigned on May 15, before the conclusion of the disciplinary process. The findings likely would have resulted in suspension or possible termination, according to the department.
As part of his resignation agreement, Smyly will officially end his employment with Boulder on Feb. 9, 2020 after using his accrued floating holiday leave, sick and permitted administrative leave. He is not allowed to be reinstated to the Boulder Police Department.
Bounce to a different PD?
He's getting prorated $80k yearly salary until Feb 9, 2020 to do nothing. Then he bounces.
And since he resigned before being officially disciplined or fired. His record is clean.
Do you have vision problems? or did you just skim the article and came up with a conclusion to fit what ever narrative your mind created? Seriously though you couldn't be more transparent even if you were a window.
Since when do cops have absolute authority over everybody else?
Imagine a cop stopping you and asking you to prove you live on your own property/apartment for picking up trash or mowing your lawn...isn't that fucking stupid? Why is he getting commands for that?
Edit: oh wait, you stated your profession as "armed white security officer" with an emphasis on your race and your gun...instead of...you know...just.."security officer" as any other normal person would say.
It makes sense now. I guess you're just a piece of shit

They really need to train and, I don't know, have a big test to see who get to wield weapons and who get to become a police officer. These guys should be able to deescalate not instigate and shoot people.
Picture this. Late at night, a cop gets you to open your door and accuse you of breaking into their house. (BLAM BLAM BLAM) Now you're dying and the cop calls you buddy. If only you did something to prevent this.
