40. what an amazingly reprehensible post

As the only one on this thread who was witness to the immediate aftermath of this event, allow me to state directly and without fear of contradiction that not only is your willingness to toss aside the life of a 16 year old girl with a snide remark truly disgusting, but your unthinking, reactionary acceptance of the righteousness of the police response gives a very clear picture of your personal agenda on this board.

Nowhere in any story does it claim the girl "rammed" the officer: that's your word and has no connection to the actual situation. I actually saw the car -- instead of just making self-righteous comments on the intertubes to excuse the needless death of a child -- because this event occurred immediately behind my house, in an alley. It was very clear to me, my fiancee and every other person in the neighborhood what occurred: the young girl panicked when the cops pulled out their guns and didn't put the car properly in park. The car sat in the middle of the alley, with room to move on either side. No one was in danger: she panicked and did not operate the vehicle properly because SHE WAS A 16 YEAR OLD CHILD. Hell, I've done this a million times during my life, and I've even done it when I was much older than 16 and did not have screaming cops pointing guns at my face.

Of course, the officer's injury report hasn't yet been released, and I know it is for this very reason -- there was no real danger to this officer. Every one of us who lives in the neighborhood and saw what occurred is confident this is the case.

The cops also acted reprehensibly after they killed this young woman: the very first thing they did was drag her body out of the car, flop it on the ground and handcuff her. One of the idiots then made a comment like "I think she is dead". AND THEN THEY TRIED TO CONFISCATE EVERYONE'S CELL PHONE.

Here is the victim, tough guy: 16 year old Jessier Hernandez.

So you go ahead and continue to make your snide Darwin remarks while sitting at your keyboard. Your hateful comments say much less about the tragic death of this young woman than they do about you.
