Rough em' Up

Trumps remarks advocating police brutality were disgusting and beyond the pale. The man only confirms with each passing day that he is an authoritarian who has no respect for the rights of others and is a wanna-be dictator at heart.

Donald Trump Endorses Police Brutality In Speech To Cops | HuffPost

WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump received applause on Friday when he endorsed police brutality while delivering a speech to law enforcement officers on Long Island, New York.

The president suggested that officers should hit suspects’ heads on the doors of their police cars.

“When you see these towns and when you see these thugs being thrown into the back of a paddy wagon, you just see them thrown in, rough, and I said, ‘Please don’t be too nice,’” Trump said.

“Like when you guys put somebody in the car and you’re protecting their head, you know, the way you put their hand over, like, don’t hit their head and they’ve just killed somebody, don’t hit their head, I said, ‘You can take the hand away, OK?’” he added.

His remarks received significant applause.

Well, it's not fake news, but, the message he is giving is great!

The triggered here are trained to explode at every little nuance their "enemy" utters, so taking the lead from their leaders in the MSM, feigned outrage is the order of hour.

Rational and intellectually sound people understand and appreciate what the President was saying.

The Police officers present understand what the President was saying.

The triggered don't have a clue what the President was saying, and only respond in Pavlovian unity when the whistles are blown.

your assertion that we spend billions as we now do on police brutality can only suggest a post from the kremlins basement.

How Much Do Taxpayers Pay For Police Misconduct? - Police State Daily

I read this yesterday in HuffPo.
I thought it was too silly to post - even for HuffPo.
It certainly does wildly expand the definition of police brutality.
How did a suspect bumping his own head getting into a cruiser become police brutality?

quoting him is more than adequate

I used to think that way. Having tested the hypothesis I have found it inadequate. Too many misquotes and false representation.
 
So called 'fiscal cons' not caring that we piss away billions of tax payers money on police brutality charges and court costs.

More hypocrisy from the Right.

you need to move to the conspiracy theory pew, in any case by your "logic" you are likely just getting another misrepresentation when you ask for another link. do your own homework.

There in an implication there. See if you can figure it out.

I say not putting your hand on a suspect's head when he gets into the car does not constitute police brutality.
Do you say it does?

The implication being that if you are not a mindless Trumpkin who believes with all your heart in the man then you see the evil in his comments.
