Sorry about that.

It is a pejorative, but only trying to use it as short hand for people that freely give away their rights to authority.

He lowered his window, handed his license over, and put his windows back up. The officer felt safe enough to stand by the widow for half a minute, knocking on the glass. The argument that the situation was threatening holds zero water and is just bootlicker cope.

The officer can make all kinds of demands, but if they don't fall under the procedures they are required to follow, then it's on the officer. The lack of following procedures is likely why the officer is suspended and will hopefully no longer be on the force. The excessive use of force is also going to result in tax payers paying millions to the recipient of the assault.

He already provided his license. The officers job was to go back to his vehicle and prepare a citation. Instead they decided to go on a power trip.

Disrespecting a police officer is not an invitation for police brutality. You are a bootlicker for having this mentality.

Police officers should be professionals and try to use the least violent means necessary, and if there is even a hint of excess, they should be deemed unfit to hold the power of authority over others. Police should be reactive on the escalation ladder, only using violence when they receive violence. However, police are given a carte blanche to do violence by claiming in any interaction that they felt threatened, giving them impunity and why we're here today.

It's not a 'sale'. It's a handout to the welfare apartheid state, while Americans are wondering why their roads are falling apart, their education sucks and no universal health care.

I would also accept Israel-Palestinian children war, since the majority of the dead are children.

You're getting downvoted, but have an upvote. There is precedence for this, ie. Kent State massacre. I think that's what you're getting at.

The same way the average American contributed to black oppression. By being silent observers to your government's actions.
