  • Re: Cops 4: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

    I already made it pretty clear above. He sure as hell didn't sound remorseful. He sounds like he knew he was ****ed. His word, not mine.

      He. Just. Killed. A. Man. I highly doubt procedure and legal consequences were running through his mind at that moment. Maybe an hour or two afterwards, sure. Most likely.

        Well, I've never seen a less remorseless reaction outside of film.
        .
        And I'm pretty sure they were. Otherwise he would have immediately been trying to save his life instead of holding a four-year-old and her mother at gunpoint.

          Again, you do understand he took a man's life? People react in different ways. See St Clown's post.

            Right but you are no better than dx assuming you know what is going through his mind. The fact is no one knows what he was thinking but from what I can tell (I wont watch the tape I have no need to watch someone die) based on what I have read he isnt showing much remorse just fear. His comments in the wake of the shooting tend to back that up as well. (his one about Philandro smoking weed being the big one) I dont think the guy was cold blooded, but I dont think he was reacting in the way you are painting it.

            Put it this way if he was upset he killed someone he would have been trying to save them. If he was messed up in the brain he would have had a panic attack or snapped or something. He would not have done nothing. JMHO.

This doesn't excuse Yanez's actions, but it does excuse his emotions. There's a reason cops are put on leave (besides the obvious investigation reason). Some cops, after shooting a person, can't handle it anymore.
              That doesn't excuse you from manslaughter. Read the statute.

                  Yes, but that's not the point. The point is that people think the verdict is just and according to the statute it's not. If he wasn't a cop he would've gotten a guilty verdict in 5 minutes.

A short while after that he left the police force for an entirely different profession. He told me about the thoughts running through his head at the time, a high-level thought process, and realized he was a only a few seconds from having to shoot until backup arrived and the young man surrendered. He was a few years removed from the incident and it still shook him a little to recount it.
                      Good. I wonder if all the ex military that are going into law enforcement are "conditioned" to pull the trigger.

                        Sadly, the stereotype is that ex-mil are gung-ho. I ran into one of them. Buddy's wife was .08, the week the new MN law passed, making .08 the new limit. He was all in our faces. He came to me, and "asked" (actually kinda demanded) "She said you're the most sober, wanna blow into this?" I initially said no, I'm not driving anywhere. He insisted. Fine, arsehat. Blew. He said, "Yeah, you're not going anywhere." Um, I JUST TOLD YOU THAT.

                          It's so hard to tell if the black guy is your co-worker...might as well shoot him.

                            So now an officer who just arrived on the scene and fears for his safety even though 2 other cops are there? He just shoots and doesnt care? What the hell is wrong with these cops...tone down the testosterone and take a flipping breathe Rambo.

                              I have a few friends that were in multiple tours in Afghanistan. They buck that stereotype. They hide in the weeds, so to speak. Avoid being the center of attention. One of them before going overseas was very alpha. Dominating, in your face presence, but in a good way. Not afterwards. I asked him why, he simply said "I found out pretty quick what happens when you behave that way in those situations."

                              That friend eventually sought out help. No meds, just talking to a trained professional. Made a big difference. Even though he retired 6 years ago, people say he's just now coming back.
