what is texags saying??!?

https://twitter.com/davenewworld_2/status/1390636142249324544

also I saw someone on twitter, maybe sys, make the comment that for things to change, white people will need to recognize cops have no issue beating tasing/shooting/beating the crap out of white people with almost as much terrifying glee as they do minorities.

Any write ups on this? I have a hard time believing there's not something that occurred beforehand that explains why the Cops were immediately on his ass and on high alert. Then again, I'm not dismissing the possibility that the story is as presented. Don't come at me.

Police said at 1:04 p.m. the bicyclist was seen running through a red light at University and Nagle Street.

“Bicyclists on the roadway are required to follow the same rules and responsibilities as motorists.,” said CSPD spokesman Officer Tristen Lopez. “The bicyclist initially stopped when one of our officers initiated a traffic stop, but then continued riding. The officer followed the bicyclist until other officers arrived and they were able to take the bicyclist into custody.”

“A large percentage of crashes can be avoided if motorists and cyclists follow the rules of the road and watch out for each other,” said Officer Lopez.

Per department policy, an ambulance is dispatched anytime someone is tased by an officer, and in this case, the man complained of injuries and was transported by medics to a hospital, police confirmed.

Kinda where I'm at. On the one hand, that is not a proportional use of force given the threat. On the other hand, don't try to evade cops. Dude is lucky he's white.

In all 50 states, people on bikes are required to follow the same laws as other drivers.

No, as documented here, best to avoid all cops. But the community members should’ve taken him down before the cops did.

What is this?  Is this where a biker thinks that they do not have to stop at a stop sign?

Will be interesting to see how this shakes out; KCMO re-allocate more than $40 million in budget funds from direct police funding to social/community programs. Basically police funds dropped from $247 million to just over 200 million.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Will be interesting to see how this shakes out; KCMO re-allocate 5.7 million in budget funds from direct police funding to social/community programs. Basically police funds dropped from $247 million to just over 241 million. Tbh, prob not enough of a difference to mean much either way.

You’re right. I misread. Should be a better measuring stick.
