There has been a wave of protests nationwide - and abroad - since May 25 when a Black man George Floyd died at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer, just one in a long string of killings that civil rights advocates say are evidence of racial bias in the criminal justice system. A Reuters investigation published two weeks before Floyd’s death found that the immunity defense, created by the Supreme Court 50 years ago, has been making it easier for cops to kill or injure civilians with impunity. The report showed that federal appellate courts have been granting police immunity at increasing rates in recent years.
Only right
Bears shitting in woods shocker.
MarshallProj, this needs your attention.
Perhaps that’s because the police are right in the majority of these cases?
Duh! In my grade school the teachers said that a blank note book, no matter what you think you know, is the sign of an ignorant or biased mind!
SUPER CIVIL WAR WILL BE YEAR 2024 WITH TRUMP ...!!!
Of course
A courageous stance in a day when lawlessness is celebrated by the illiberal Left and the media.
This woman is the anti-Christ
Excessive force? Against citizens. And what race are they?
Sadly I doubt she changes her mind. Even scarier is that she assumes her adopted kids won’t have to worry while they’re in her protective bubble. Ignoring how the real world works currently, isn’t something I want in a judge, let alone a Supreme Court Justice.
Most federal judges rule for police in excessive force cases
poliçe is an puplic enemy in usa.
How many first time black drug offender's did Harris jail, then smiled to herself when asked.. Egregious
Of course she does.
Good. Means she a good judge!! When you have some black friends and they talk about disrespect the police so they can get “guapo money”. From police. Wtf. Guapo meaning a lot. They disrespect and harassing police for a lawsuit. Already have lawyer card in wallet. Joke!!!
Gee, what a big non-surprise.
Reuters fails to note that if the law favors the accused, then excessive force was either warranted or not present.
Isn't that the idea 8f choosing her
Maybe because people are resisting and it's a dangerous job. Just a thought.
consistently on the wrong side of every issue
Most of the excessive force issues around here are just people trying to get out of DUIs. While I'm sure some cops are guilty, no one wants to be arrested and get a criminal record.
Its tragic how our President, Government, Politicians & Media are diligently working to divide us by endorsing biased & unpopular decisions at this critical time. Who need enemies when we have 'friends' like them.... uhh
Shocker.
Just as Jesus wants.
How many first time black drug offender's did Harris jail, then smiled herself worn asked.. Egregious
She will be a far right justice, pushing America back into midage.
😴
her? no way
Good
She’s a Handmaids Tale advocate. Not worthy of a SCOTUS seat.
That's incredibly surprising.
That’s why Trump picked her. Duh!!!
That’s on brand.
Disgusting!

andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley But, honestly, why does this matter? The American people don't get to vote for SCOTUS. Sure, the left wants to wait because they believe they'll flip the senate, but that's not how this works. She will be confirmed. Why spread this bullcrap?
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley It was taking too long for the media to find a way to speak negatively about the judge
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley And? Why not post the positive things she’s done?
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Because if you aren't locking your pregnant daughter in the basement, you may as well be standing up for police brutality!
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley KKK MEMBER...
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley 'Just shut up! I NEED the woman to make me king or the Resolute desk gets it.' Trump screams to the Media'.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Did she? Or did she side with the written word of the law. What bullishit reporting. Why not end you tweet with a 'Reuters for Biden' tag.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Most people are uneducated on police use of force issues in the first place.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley You are not news, you are propaganda.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Your article doesn’t support your headline; the story is consistent with the facts of the cases before her favoring the police or prison guards, for example, and her ruling accordingly — which is exactly the job.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Yes! We need more of this.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley What a poorly written article What passes as journalism today, wouldn't pass as a rough draft 20 years ago
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley The public perception on what constitutes excessive force in law enforcement has shifted wildly over the past decade or two. Not withstanding obvious cases of it (e.g. Floyd), the police are increasingly unable to do their jobs effectively.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley GOOD
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Most courts do side with LE on excessive force. That’s why it is a systematic problem. She isn’t an outlier, she is the norm.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley You lost this battle already. Move to the next.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Good
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Now do Kamala.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley oh if joe biden is catholic why cant she be
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley She is a reactionary
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley When you think of the jobs Police and Prison guards have; excessive force is a requirement; they're not dealing with angels !!!!
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Sadism is spread faster than virus
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley She’s only there to hand Trump the win when he contests mail-in ballots and it goes to the Supreme Court to decide the winner.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley You said you 'reviewed' the cases. That's not what your article showed. Perhaps she sided with law enforcement in those individual cases for a reason, but I doubt you would report that.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Amy 'Trump' Barrett is a political lap dog like Barr or Rattcliffe. Stop expecting her to do right by the public. She's a Trump dog.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Sided with police. She is deciding based on evidence.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley You make up a fake news reports but won’t report on greasy joe Biden’s emails. The fact that he has constantly like to the American ppl since 1988 when he got caught lying, 1994 when he voted to inprison black men and 2014 when he built cages for brown children. He’s a sick man
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley FALSO...
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Handmaiden
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley HandmaidAmy is UNFIT for SCOTUS
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley And?
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley How can a judge with only 3 YEARS EXPERIENCE become a a SCOTUS?
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley This only makes her more appealing to Republican senators who are going to vote on her confirmation.
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley This is what a judge is meant for
andrew_chung_ lawrencehurley Which is why Trump appointed her.
