Hahahahaha! Oh boy, do you think the NYPD would let themselves be held accountable?

Agreed. I strongly believe in unions, and think everyone should have some employment and legal protections that comes with membership in a union. What we need to do is to strip away some of the absurd powers that the police union has. Also, police misconduct should not be investigated by the police force. That should be a separate, state-level organization.

cool

This is why I shouldn't engage with people like you. Enjoy the cross burning with the boys tonight.

No, because it's a false analogy that I won't engage with. Fort Sumter was a federal fort on federal land that was already garrisoned by federal troops. Resupplying that fort was 100% within the federal government's rights. No one provoked SC. They just got scared that the new president-elect might take their precious slaves away from them, so they illegally seceded from the Union and ordered the government to abandon their own forts. They then attacked an unarmed ship that attempted to resupply Fort Sumter. At every step, the Confederate forces were the aggressors. But I'm not going to argue with a Lost Causer, since you probably refuse to accept actual historical evidence.

Try reading some actual history instead of just watching Tucker Carlson and listening to Alex Jones.

Don't get me started on the mental gymnastics of Southern apologists who insist that the Federal government started the war by resupplying a Federal fort in South Carolina.

>Local lore suggests it was and remains pointed to the north as a warning against northern aggression.

Seems like you should point it in any other direction if you actually want to threaten the North with it.

But, but, but the Federal government sent supplies to a Federal fort on Federal land! A clear act of aggression!

Yeah, this feels like a real non-story to me.

This is just an ad. This guy posts these all the times. check his post history.

I can't imagine the NYPD actually responding to a package theft

I've been down there in a similar situation. Granted, I'm taller than average and was in pretty good shape back then, but adrenaline is a hell of a boost when you're hopping back out of the tracks. I smacked the hell out of my knee getting out and didn't feel it for hours.

If the person filming had helped, they could have just pulled him up by his arms, instead of that guy having to go down into the platform to get him.
