He was wearing gang colors at the time his body came into contact with a vehicle
Look at what he was wearing. He was asking for it. Did he even say no? How was the father supposed to know that he didn't want to get hit by a car? Are we really going to destroy this dad's bright future over one mistake?
Remember, if you're on the jury, you're not convinced by the evidence. You just aren't.
Or the evidence displays the facts of the case and you decide he's innocent anyways because the law itself is unjust or he did nothing wrong. Jury nullification, a thing that's allowed but strongly discouraged.
Throwing my #1 Dad mug in the garbage because I won't drink out of a lie.
Hopefully the next time they think about murdering someone they'll pause to consider this.
"I would kill this shoplifter, but I mustn't forget that the Lepidopterists threw away his #1 dad mug"
Just write his name before the #1 and it's a truthful mug again

Job-related casualty ensue as officer crosses path of vehicle
This is why cops should support police reform. Otherwise, stuff like this is the only path people will see to getting justice when the police overstep, and it's going to become a lot more commonplace. Accountability, it turns out, is a good thing.
Yep. This is what happens when accountability within the system is impossible. What else was he supposed to do?
Even as a young 
I understood that giving cops a free pass undermines their legitimatcy as an authority and will only lead to accountability coming from the people.
Now I'm like, COPS HAVE NO AUTHORITY! 
there's no amount of reform that would help this fascist police force. The only possible path to an acceptable "police" would require a complete and total purge of the existing system, leadership and rank-and-file. The entire culture needs to be burned to the ground, the old organizations and unions dismantled
Exactly. Right now they’re used to eating donuts and beating up black children, do they really want the hostile populace they so desperately desire?
no, they want to feel tough.
they would fold in any scenario where the numbers and odds were actually even, let alone against them.
look how they whine at being in a population where a growing segment simply doesn't respect them.
if most of us were truly hostile to them or threatening, they couldn't move around in teams smaller than 4-6 and they certainly could not get out of their vehicles without support. like a drone watching from above and prepared to make something bang. the entire calculus of "patrol" would change drastically.
no more napping in a car or posting up in a parking lot and playing on the phone. no more walking into a restaurant or getting takeout, unless it's in some kind of Green Zone hardened complex. they would have to radio in everybody who was on a cellphone looking in their direction. they would have to live in a barracks and/or wear a balaclava literally everywhere, in the heat of summer. the job would become taking turns sitting at sluggish checkpoints with jersey barriers and going out to investigate junk on the side of the road that might explode and take a few of appendages.
they have no idea what kind of shitshow it means to actually police a hostile population with no obvious language or cultural barrier.
I think some of them might? Even though once they got that wish they would find themselves worse off, I think a lot actually want to feel like soldiers, and use their weapons, vehicles, and tactics, so they can feel as cool and important as the military they no doubt feel inferior to, and use the equipment they're given for free.

even the "humane" and "benevolent" European police brutalizes/kills minorities and leftist en-mass, the changing of the class character of society is the only police reform that is worth a damn.

All he did was send a cop on permanent leave. I don't see what the problem is, its what the state would have done
he's saving the taxpayers money!
Bit idea: twitter account that, in the wake of every cop death, estimates the amount of tax dollars saved in cop salary for the average career and keeps a running total.

Theetge said that the officer who shot the teen had said Ryan Hinton pointed the gun at him."Let me be very direct: We cannot allow individuals to flee from officers with a loaded firearm aimed at them,"
Look, I know we like to bash cops on here, but if you're in a life-or-death situation can you really rule out the risk of a teenager twisting his whole torso 180 degrees as though he had the spinal articulation of an owl so he can accurately fire his weapon that he definitely has while fleeing in the darkness?
"He was running away! He might have shot me!"
It's like they don't even care. You can tell the press whatever you want and they'll just write it the fuck down.
Running like the guy from GTA 3 or Vice City.
> Remembering Deputy Henderson
I only remember that time he got yeeted with a car to death because he deserved it
compare the reaction to this to the reaction to luigi
The comments i saw on 10 seconds of scrolling through YouTube just now were all supportive though
spoiler
I'd agree with you more if he got the pig who actually shot his kid
ACAB includes all cops. It would have been better if he hit the pig that killed his son but I won't cry for this pig either
I'm just saying comparing the reaction to luigi would be more apt if if was the sae pig, the act itself is good and proportional

they're the thin blue line. They stand in front of the pig to eat the bullet and protect him. It's all the same.
I'm the CEO of ACAB, and after a thorough internal investigation, we have determined Mr. Hinton did nothing wrong.
Chin could not be held higher
Honestly surprised this sort of thing doesn't happen more
Im glad he fucking got him, that's something they'll never be able to take away from this man. His son's mmurderer got squished and they can't do shit about it
He unfortunately did not get the cop that shot his son.
Oh
I think he got a different cop
that sucks
Totally different cop who was in fact retired. Probably the least important cop that could have been chosen
I'm calling it ahead of time: Deputy Henderson is going to have some skeletons in his closet

Clearly wasn't murder, because it was justice. Of course the corrupt judges and "lawyers" will say it isn't, while ignoring the cop murdering someone running away after ~maybe~ they stole a car. I know 
but everyone keeping this guy in jail deserves being run over.
""I’ve known Rodney since I was 15 years old. That wasn’t the Rodney that I knew. It was like his soul wasn’t even in his body," she told NBC News after the bond hearing.
"And I can only imagine what he felt when he saw that video," she said emotionally. "Because when I finally seen it, and I watched that video from the beginning to the end and watched my nephew drop, it was like my soul left my body. So I can only imagine how his father felt.""
Judge should order the immediate execution of every cop involved with the poor kid's murder.
What I thought chuds lived by the motto "an eye for an eye"?
Meanwhile your dad would be like "I don't approve of the police killing my son, but violence is never the answer (unless it's against my son by a cop)".
