NYPD killed woman’s parakeet, beat her family, invaded home without warrant

So tell them thanks for serving and protecting, have a nice day, and walk back inside. That's all I'm saying. Regardless, the LEO's should be punished.

What protecting and serving? They have no obligation to do either nor do you have any avenue to pursue recompense for their failure to protect you.

You gotta mix it up on you're lose your audience.

I do mix it up a bit. Some days it's the TSA, some days it's the feds, some days it's baton happy officers killing pets.

You are running away from me, therefore you are engaged in some type of illegal activity.

Damn right.

Do you have conflicting information? If you do, I'm willing to listen to why officers broke into a home without warrant, chasing someone they had no reason to chase, killed a family pet and not only pepper sprayed but also beat people with batons.

Give me a minute. Ill type something up and have a host link. It will have to be the truth then.

Again, don't take things out of context. LEO sees a cone in front of building in the road. Does it look suspicious? Well, if there isn't a utility truck around and it's not common practice, then I'd say yes. LEO then asks the guy about it. The guy says it's his, probably acted nervous, and then ran. I'd pursue too on suspicious behavior.

Again, I'm not trying to defend the LEO's. If there was a cone on the street in front of my house, I would expect the LEO to ask about it too. If it were mine and I said so, then that would be the end of it. I wouldn't run away just because he asked for ID. What we don't know is how the guy came to be in front by the cone. I have no problem with them asking about it and possibly even asking for ID depending on behavior and circumstances. If the guy doesn't comply and walks back inside, that's the end of it.

Again, I in no way think their behavior was justifiable (if it was as is reported) and they should by all means be held accountable.

Edit: The LEO, as always, could have assisted things by telling the man why he was asking and proceeded in a professional manner instead of demanding ID. That probably would have saved a lot of trouble.

Uhh, if the cops are questioning you and you turn around and sprint away out of the blue I'm pretty sure that's probably cause. It's a shame about the bird. At least they didn't shoot it.

There's three sides to every story, and this one sounds absurd to say the least. I'm gunna go out on a limb here and say that there's probably a good bit of info missing here... Along with the fact that I'm sure your police abuse radar would have gone off long ago if events truly transpired as these poor victims have stated as this did take place over a year ago and we're just now hearing about it...

But he read it on the internet! We all know you can't lie on the internet!

Ah, well then, thank you just the same. I get very focused when I see tyrants abusing innocents.

So when are you going to finally do something about it and make these stories really interesting?

Don't let common sense and legal precedent stand in the way of half-truth and emotion.

I'm not agreeing with pepper spray, batons and bird-stomping; Don't know what the officers encountered when they went into the apartment, but I can't think of anything that would justify killing the bird (besides just being a dick).
