(24,461 posts)It's an authoritarian and bullying culture, almost as if they're in an unspoken war on Cleveland's citizens.
I've experienced many instances of verbal harassment by police, including one where, during a re-direct in traffic due to a marathon I didn't even know was happening, an LEO spent 3 minutes yelling at me like I'm a six year old for following the instructions of where his fellow officer told me to go. Oh, and he also threatened to write us all tickets for . . .
yeah, I don't know what?
I've seen police angrily yell at drivers using language you'd hear at a bar fight.
I've seen CPD put a knee on the back of an addicted and mentally ill homeless woman in Tower City. This, unfortunately was before recording police actions happened . . . I mean, do I call the police ON the police?
They need to clean it up and FAST, but something tells me we're only going to see more Tamir Rice cases, and possibly even ones that are worse.
