Or they could have crashed and ran over your 15-year old kid crossing the street. Or maybe sideswiped you at a high speed. |
I somehow don’t think so I don’t think we move in the same circles. I’m all for chasing - how many innocent citizens and 15 year olds were hurt in police chases back when we had the police?
|
These are criminals. Crimes have victims. Why are you more concerned with hypothetical 15 year olds than the real victims of crime? |
Lots. Police chases are dangerous. https://www.newsweek.com/hundreds-are-killed-each-year-police-pursuits-many-them-bystanders-1734216 https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article281551468.html https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/police-driving-practices-scrutiny-crashes-kill-officers-bystanders-rcna30416 Google police chase bystander. |
| I’ll take my chances. Pro-chase all the way |
Cities don't make policy based on your personal preference. They do, potentially, make policy based on having to pay large settlements to the families of bystanders who were injured or killed in police chases. |
|
But they didnt did they? They made a policy based on a misplaced ideology in a moment in time in which that gave them an election opportunity boost.
I read everything about this and think it was a knee jerk reaction that is self serving. It has resulted in no circumstance under which a warranted chase can be conducted with any guarantee that the cop won’t be imprisoned If you are interested in being honest learn the facts. The no chase policy chapter comes after the no white supremacy (?!) chapter in Allen’s anti-police bill which is now the law in DC and had directly contributed to the horrendous living conditions in his ward |

List 3 in DC, go on:
pay large settlements to the families of bystanders who were injured or killed in police chases Seriously, your Goebelsian tactics aren’t working on the masses are they? |
Every time I read gaslighting of this nature, I grow more determined to throw these clowns out of the office. Allen first |
Until they kill you or your loved one. |
Oh well, if it hasn't happened specifically in DC, I guess it hasn't happened anywhere. https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article281551133.html |
| Thanks for proving my point. Now you are dismissed to crawl back up Allen |
What was your point? That police chases are dangerous and even deadly for bystanders? Yes, that is a factual statement. |
|
I love the Comintern logic and this is coming from a self confessed socialist.
No dude, you said payouts to families. That couldn’t cite one. So then you misstated your original point so you could argue you’re right. But you’re not. Ok I’ll bite: Name 3 innocent bystanders who died in this century in a police chase in DC |
Lots of innocent bystanders are injured and killed during police chases. I don't know why you are arguing with this statement of fact. |
