The standard issue that most departments are using a glock varies in caliber size of the bullet they are 15 so does this fire automatically or you know. Different standards some have just the single action some have 3 round burst and some have full auto why does the police in this case the coon rapids a Small Town Police precinct needs a ar 15 rifles better to have a tool not needed the needed tool not have it. What the rifle phenomena was caused by is the l. A. Robbery probably 20 years ago where the bad guys werent wearing kevlar suits basically and they had rifles. We rule to fall and in order for you to use deadly force you have to meet. The requirements to use that force if you use Excessive Force thats when you get in trouble you get sued you go to jail if you feel that officers like that ruin it for you in the image of the police in the United States in general we have 50 states you can probably find at least one bad thing that happens in every state but then when you start running those stories day after day people think there is a huge amount yes it happens yes there are bad cops but we have to remember that 99 percent of the cops are good and doing the right thing and helping. The. Less Police Officers. Let me tell yourself that they are. 5 6 not. Going to your time there. Is a group like them every hour.

You have a complaint for if you let people think that something will happen but it never does my understanding was an adage in bloom i may finish yes im finished as ive been very gracious ive given you more than the time that was on the agenda because because you have folks that are out here to speak i want them to speak thats why we have an open forum at the beginning of the bid and we did respond to your request for data we provided considerable amount of data i know they didnt investigate because in our 300 page complaint theres witnesses listed its not a single one was ever called so how do you investigate and youll follow investigation if you dont talk to everyone its listed.

Say so now if youre going to rest me for my right not to fight. I mean. Scott is one of the most well known lawyers finance Police Brutality in new york. Mr how many cases in general have you. Solved and had a positive outcome for your clients the thousands of Police Brutality has to be in the high hundreds or thousands i think Police Brutality is a real issue in this country i have a number of cases where people were injured very badly in police chase cases and when you speak to a Police Officer and question them about the training they receive in the cademy they will tell you theyre never in a real situation thats a very good point but with this case the question is did the officer have the right to do what he did lets watch when its about a couple more minutes here. And i got no problem with. This who kicks the phone out of his hand. There were shots. Actually more but i think a lot of this issue escalated because obviously officers dont like when people talk back to them or dont like when people dont comply with their the mans i think in this situation no is different in somebodys others because this officer obviously wasnt threatened by any imminent. We can stop this announced civil war between communities and the police the lawyer goes on to say simple u. S. Citizen so he powerful weapon and its not a gun korey rifle smartphone. Theres no question in my 26 years of practicing ive seen the number of Police Brutality cases rise ive seen the number of charges rise and i think the only reason its really coming to the forefront is the invention of the cell phone if it wasnt a cell phone camera people wouldnt believe half of the things that go on and we have these videos to prove it. Is a survey says this is a class issue or is this even just in the for terry so all these things racism authoritarianism inequality class inequality class issues right psychological issues all of that is thrown into this pot its called Police Brutality thats why you do your best for you with regard to your own ability and transparency if youre never you.

America was never great was founded on the rates in the murder. Nothing changed so we said in. Response to these situations that were dealing with. People get sad every day people kill each other blacks are killing children. So it was just no way that people were going to just sit back and allow children to be shot down Law Enforcement. This country doesnt work for us it doesnt function for us. This is cant be happening in america we call from the streets weve got to deal with why this is the reason i have to ride like this is the reason. 54 droughts and more than 1300 military personnel are headed to air force base in alaska where is that to say come on ill show you whats the reason for any type. Of enhanced u. S. Military presence in this area russia. What is it suddenly about the South China Sea that makes it so that it 11000000000 barrels of oil. Take a look at this map who really owns what kind of says no it belongs to us india says no we claim that that belongs to us both of these countries have Nuclear Weapons capabilities there is reason for concern so thats why were going to drill down on this story for you today right here on the news with rick sanchez where you know as we always like to say we do believe by golly its time to do news again.
