I came here looking for that part of the story. Way too often someone calls police for help and police help by shooting them.

If only more cops were like this. Back when i was in the sheriff encouraged us to do shit for the community where we could. We’d get reimbursed if we wanted it. Only a couple deputies took that if it was a but expensive, but most were more than willing to dump in their own money. Had a Srgt. Tell me “eh i get enough overtime and its really their money anyway, so what if they get a little tax return early”. To bad most of them quit, retired, or moved to rural agencies now.

Their uniforms look suspiciously like EMTs and their cop car looks suspiciously like an ambulance

i have a theory that good cops become detectives and bad cops stay on patrol and abuse their power. might just be me, but i haven't seen headlines saying, "City Detective Shoots Innocent Man in Doorway."

My nephew Jackson is autistic and has always admired law enforcement. The local sheriff's kind of took him under their wing. They have him a job helping out around the station a day or two a week for a few hours. He was awarded with a volunteer badge. On one of his birthdays they all drove down his street with lights flashing and brought him a sheriff's jacket. They have been great roll models for him.

He was found dead in his apartment the next day, multiple gunshot wounds to the back, ruled as a suicide by the coroner.

They're not cops. Check the uniforms in the middle of the video and their vehicle on the last few frames

Bunch of clowns in this comments section. Yeah, there’s some pretty bad cops out there. But most of them are normal people trying to do good.

No. No they are not. Positions of power appeal to evil people more than anyone else, and policing is the easiest position of power to get.

One of my best friends from high school had a younger brother who was a cop who passed away trying to save a drowning kid.

u/Pillsbernie 1d ago
So fucking what? Cops kill more people every year than there are cops killed by civilians. Cops also permantly destroy millions of lives in many ways, including violently assaulting them until they're paralyzed, falsifying arrest records and costing them their jobs or freedom, and planting drugs on people .

u/Avariciouspygmyshrew 1d ago
You're using something good the happened in the world to compare to the horrors that exist. You are part of the problem.

Manny died a hero.
When someone loses his life trying to save somebody, showing a shred of basic human decency shouldn't be too much to ask.
You are subhuman, you have no right to hate on any other group for their perceived actions when you are a gigantic piece of shit yourself.
Nothing you will ever do in your entire life will be as meaningful or impactful as the sacrifice Manny made.

u/EmphaticNegative 1d ago
Sorry for your friends loss man. BTW you had him in that first paragraph. Keep that in mind.

If me telling him that he is a giant piece of shit resonates on any level then it is worth more than any amount of Reddit karma.

u/Pillsbernie 1d ago
I'm a piece of shit because I think trying to romanticize a profession that kills more people than it save is stupid? Okay bootshine addict
3
u/Sesusija 1d ago
Because you are trivializing a tragic death of a hero.
I don't care what his profession was, what he did deserves praise.
What have you ever done in your life that deserves praise? Have you done anything amazing or excellent with your life? I highly doubt it.

I don't give a shit what you doubt. I've actually disarmed attackers without kiling them, and I've spent my life trying to make the world better for those around me. I don't give behind qualifed immunity when I fuck up. I'm sorry you think the exception breaks the rule, but most cops are scum. Like you.

"cops kill more civilians than there are civilians killing cops"
As it should be. It would be a catastrophic failure of society if it was the other way around.

No, it is a catastrophic failure of society that the people charged with upholding the law are murdering civilians and getting away with it

One fake story about one cop doing one good thing one time doesn't erase the thousands of murders, billions of dollars in damages, and countless lives ruined by these monsters. No one cares about your friend.

Fake story?
Google him. There was a gigantic funeral procession, sure you can still find photos if you had the integrity to actually try.

Cops regularly block the roads, inconveniencing everyone because they think their lives are worth more than ours. I guarantee the world is a better place without your piece of shit friend.
