They must really like getting sued.

Evidence that we live in an authoritarian oligarchy, piece #463836373

How long did they wait in the hall before arresting the uncle?

Every single LEO on site that day should be charged with dereliction of duty, 2nd degree murder and spend the rest of their miserable lives in prison.

that just is not illegal.

Apparently the police there are only tough with unarmed civilians. If you've got a gun, they back down.

police states ran by white supremacist terrorism is wild.

Texas is so f*cked up and vindictive. One of the hate-states I will never set foot in again. (Pity Austin is there, but ...)

FUCK the police chief.

In particular.

Crowd sourcing his legal fees?

cops are the ultimate snowflakes.

"Watch your language!" one of the commissioners warned Cross.

"Language, language, language. My child is fucking DEAD!" the grieving uncle responded.

I'm comforted that the police can act when the situation is truly dire.

Guess speaking truth to power is illegal in Texas; who would have guessed!

Only in the Land of the Free.

they should have never been cops if their were gonna pussy out.

Poor, poor sensitive #cops. 😭
Happily, no court will convict the uncle because saying "fvck" to a cop is absolutely free speech and protected by the first amendment.

The sad thing is that the cops know this but they chose to harass the uncle just because they could. Cops rarely even know the laws they're supposed to enforce. They are a bad joke, and we all pay the price for their stupidity. 😒
