Screw those POS thieves.

Just heard the family is trying to sue the city of Farmers Branch. Someone explain to me how the city is liable for the actions of one of their off duty cops?

It is a stretch but they are going to try to go after the deepest pockets. Of course, they could also be alleging that there is some sort of cover up. Sounds a little bit comical but go and read the bullshit that the FWPD came up with today to try to cover for that moron who was spraying pepper spray into traffic. Apparently the FW police will say or do just about anything to get away from being held accountable. For people who hold themselves up as being responsible and honest, it is actually pretty fucking pathetic.

Are you referring to the part about them (bikers) having to admit wrong doing in order to testify against the officer? The video released today from the Officers POV shows them riding wheelies past him once he was out of car. By law, they failed to switch lanes away from the officer or slow down. This being prior to the spraying incident depicted in the viral video that made it appear he started spraying without provocation. The same MO used for most or all FTP videos.

They will have to incriminate themselves to pursue anything further with the FWPD. You must have clean hands when you formally accuse someone else of wrong doing. Both parties were at fault for doing the wrong thing in this situation.

If you have ever been stuck behind a group of stunters when you have somewhere else you need to be, you'll have little to no sympathy to anything that befalls these idiots.

That one guy in the bed of the truck chunking that cell phone. Ha

[helosailor]

I fucking hate those groups of stunts that take up the whole road for their circus. I'm glad they got sprayed, but I don't like the situation as a whole. It was a poor decision by the officer.

Every word of this.

[juiceweezl]

Every word of this.

Yes!

And I'll quote it again. It wasn't a good decision by the LEO, but there's some fault at those idiot stunters too.

side bets that that was a digi scale and not a cellphone??

I love intellectual dishonesty.

I believe the law is that you have to vacate the lane or slow down to 20 mph under the posted speed limit. I have yet to see anyone quantify their speed in the video.

In any event, none of that justifies spraying pepper spray into oncoming traffic. If the cop felt his life was in danger then why would he have got out of the car in the first place?

On top of all of that, couldn't the pepper spray have hit a guy in the middle lane? Are we going to make up another science fiction scenario or half assed argument as to why that guy wouldn't have a legitimate complaint?

I hate stunters like Naynus hates opportunity, doesn't mean what the cop did was right.

All that.. I thought the same, but didn't want to type it all out.

Also, the guys doing wheelie's or whatever would have been past him by the time he sprayed, so he was spraying 'innocents'.. Oh, and if it was because he was in danger, why would he think spraying guys on moving motorcycles would make him more safe.. Isn't that just inviting them to lose control and smash into him?

Simple fact is he was irritated by them, like many of us are, and decided to spray them to 'get back at them'. Pure emotional response with no way to rationalize it logically, though they are trying really hard to.

[Broncojohnny]

Exactly Chili. And then the FWPD hires some guy who obviously got his law degree online to spin it...

This. There is no scenario in which the cop was right to spray a blinding agent into moving traffic.

But the boy has a house! And a yard! And six dozen cars! And a job! And hasn't been to jail for a little bit!
