[QUOTE="Firpo, post: 3956088, member: 45550"] I applied and went through the interview process with the LAPD when I was 20ish back in ‘88. Aced my written exam and scored a 97% on my oral exam which didn’t get me there, I needed a 99% because I was a white male. Now if I were black or Hispanic I’d be a retired cop right now. BTW they only needed a score of 78% to be accepted. 🤬 I‘m starting to have the feeling that while I have always and will continue to be a supporter of law enforcement I think there are more cops out there that shouldn’t be then I would have thought. IMO there’s nothing wrong with giving a criminal a “tuneup” if they make you chase’m but beating someone to death? No excuse or justification. Also I completely agree and shout it at the TV every time this comes up, that being that if the idiot perp hadn’t run away/resisted arrest this would have all been avoided. Guaranteed he’d be alive today BUT an arse whoppin’ that ends in his death is completely unacceptable. I’ll wait for the vid to pass any judgement but from the things being reported, my suspicions are they are in deep doo-doo. [/QUOTE]
