Bottom line, continue defending a pedophile by arguing against a swift and decisive arrest. I’ll sit over and and enjoy one less piece of shit being on the street.
That's not what I'm doing. Don't dismiss my argument by making it into something that it isn't. Cops aren't the ones who get to dish out pushiment. If they do, or try to, then they're no better than the (alleged) piece of shit they arrest, and should be arrested and tried for assault and/or murder themselves.

You still seem to trust them unequivocally. That's wrong.

This.

So what don't we know? Why do you trust them without question?

Im tired of the "because you just can't know bro, they're the good guys. You just don't get it. You gotta trust me bro"

But keep with the "LE is perfect, and we shouldn't ever question them" mentality.

I haven't read a single post here where anyone has said that. Your bias is putting words in other people's mouths while making you deaf.

There's plenty of examples of bad policing and those should be dealt with, but there's also plenty of examples bad people initiate the bad acts and cops are trying to protect themselves through proper PPE (which is an actual OSHA requirement, by the way).

Was it necessary here? Probably not, but we don't know. So relax and let the process play out.

We don’t know what we don’t know…we weren’t there. I’ve walked a couple miles in their shoes and I tend to trust them.

I don't hold very many LE folks in high regard. Most of them that I know are folks who wouldn't be allowed in the military because they're too stupid, too fat, or too sexist and racist. It's a low-paying job that attracts the bottom of the barrel, yet they want to be called "Officers".

The most garbage takes of all garbage takes that have paraded around this site in a long time.

WTF, he’s not defending a pedophile.

Edit: I think if they knew they were going to arrest him at the end of the flight, there is no fucking way they should have allowed him at the controls before the flight, with 100+ passengers on board. They basically used the fact that his job was going to deliver him to San Francisco and save them ass pain.

He had been under investigation since April. Did the pilot know? 1000% sure he didn’t know? If you knew he knew he was under investigation, would that change the risk calculus?

Their actions obviously tell us they think he had no clue, in which case they could have waited and grabbed him on a traffic stop or at home.

Jesus Christ, dude. This is unhinged.

HSI under DHS is the agency that has the mandate for human trafficking and child exploitation.

Which is why it’s insane that they’re getting pulled from their day jobs to tackle day laborers in Home Depot and stage presence patrols in public parks.
