Martin Gugino: Fractured Skull/Unable to Walk [View all] blogslut Jun 2020 OP

Mr. Gugino is about to own a big chunk of the city of Buffalo, The Velveteen Ocelot Jun 2020 #1

I hope he OWNS the city of Buffalo. And jrthin Jun 2020 #23

But that won't be much of a victory PatSeg Jun 2020 #25

no, but it would be a lesson AlexSFCA Jun 2020 #31

Exactly nt jrthin Jun 2020 #34

That's an excellent point PatSeg Jun 2020 #35

Maybe the cities should contract with the unions for their police and not be responsible LiberalArkie Jun 2020 #36

Privatise the police? mwooldri Jun 2020 #51

Same thing happens in big business. If the current security provider breaks a rule, they fire the LiberalArkie Jun 2020 #54

I'm thinking this is sort of backwards thinking. Try this train of thought... jaxexpat Jun 2020 #55

He has a tough row to hoe to prevail over Qualified Immunity. Dustlawyer Jun 2020 #45

Qualified immunity just means they can't go after the cops. Cities can are do pay plenty Dream Girl Jun 2020 #49

Which means the tax payers will pay for it so there is that negative to consider. cstanleytech Jun 2020 #78

Many cities have self-insurance funds or insurance trusts, but The Velveteen Ocelot Jun 2020 #70

Me too. And that one officer that pushed him needs to be hit with a civil suit as well. BComplex Jun 2020 #5

Hopefully he won't be protected by "qualified immunity". n/t Crunchy Frog Jun 2020 #8

"Qualified immunity" is license to kill, and it has to be repealed the minute Moscow Mitch is BComplex Jun 2020 #9

Yes, Newest Reality Jun 2020 #10

Sadists and serial killers with a badge. What a coup that is for the white supremacists. BComplex Jun 2020 #11

Sadly, I believe that only the Supreme Court can "repeal" it, Crunchy Frog Jun 2020 #12

It's not Moscow Mitch who gave cops qualified immunity, it's the courts, specifically USSC. In fact in2herbs Jun 2020 #29

But doesn't supreme court abide by and enforce the laws created by congress? BComplex Jun 2020 #33

For example, Congress did not establish Citizen's United. The USSC went looking for a case that in2herbs Jun 2020 #38

Two officers pushed him at the same time. nt tblue37 Jun 2020 #39

Only the one on the right of the screen pushed him. n/t Ms. Toad Jun 2020 #59

No, the other one used his baton, held in both hands, to shove him in the chest. nt tblue37 Jun 2020 #60

From my multiple views - Ms. Toad Jun 2020 #61

In this slow motion view, the second cop does seem to make contact, at least as I see it. tblue37 Jun 2020 #62

something I noticed the other day 2naSalit Jun 2020 #65

Boy is that creepy with the sound turned on. Ms. Toad Jun 2020 #75

One thing to notice is the way the cop pushing with the baton pushes off with his legs. tblue37 Jun 2020 #79

It looks to me like the 3rd cop pushes the baton cop to push the guy harder. JudyM Jun 2020 #77

Then they both need to be sued. BComplex Jun 2020 #67

"Harder" has nothing to do do with it. . He fell BECAUSE he was pushed. keithbvadu2 Jun 2020 #18
