Calgary-based lawyer Stefanie Stamm told Global News that she believes the officer in the video broke the law.
“There are laws in place, both provincially and federally, to protect animals from suffering exactly how this deer suffered. And police officers are sworn to uphold those laws,” she said.
...
“The fact that it was a police officer who actually was violating specific laws that he was sworn to uphold is disgusting,” she said.
“This police officer should have criminal charges laid against him.”
But will there be?

www.nytimes.com/2019/04/18/us/white-nationalists-virginia-police.htmlThe first case involved Sgt. Robert A. Stamm of the Virginia Division of Capitol Police
...
Sergeant Stamm came to its attention because he had a large Band-Aid covering his neck while patrolling. The group found photos on social media of Sergeant Stamm with tattoos, flags and banners that used white supremacist symbols and images, it said in a blog post.
It also said he was linked to the Asatru Folk Assembly, which the Southern Poverty Law Center has described as an extremist group that invokes pre-Christian Nordic spirituality.
...
In the second case, Daniel Morley, a school resource officer with the Chesterfield County Police Department, was fired Thursday following an investigation into allegations that he was affiliated with the group Identity Evropa, also known as the American Identity Movement. Members of that group helped plan the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Va., according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Antifa Seven Hills had identified Mr. Morley as a “pledge coordinator” for the group, which recruits on college campuses and elsewhere. Antifa said that Mr. Morley was responsible “for guiding new applicants through the vetting process” and had been a member since 2017.
...
Mr. Stamm and Mr. Morley knew each other, and in March it posted what it said was a photo of the two together.
The last sentence is the key. It does not take many biased officers who know one another for them to start covering for one another and hence corrupting the whole institution from inside out.

www.freep.com/story/news/politics/2019/04/29/rashida-tlaib-tweet-california-fontana-police/3614245002/A California police department says an off-duty employee was behind a tweet reportedly posted April 23 that disparaged Michigan representative Rashida Tlaib, according to the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin of California.
"Nice knowing you! I became bulimic because I vomit every time I hear your BS. You are one of the most un-American person s (sic) I know. You are a disgrace to the office you hold," read screen grabs of the since-deleted tweet of the Fontana Police Department, which was shared by the Daily Bulletin.
The tweet also linked to a post made by a right-wing website about Tlaib and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
When police calls "un-American" someone willing to speak out against the most powerful on behalf of the most powerless, it is time to worry.

My suspicions confirmed - this is an endemic problem:
www.buzzfeednews.com/article/emilyhoerner/police-facebook-racist-violent-posts-comments-philadelphiaThe Plain View Project, launched by Philadelphia lawyer Emily Baker-White, examined the accounts of about 2,900 officers from eight departments across the country and an additional 600 retired officers from those same departments. She compiled posts that represented troubling conduct in a database that is replete with racist imagery and memes, and in some cases long, vitriolic exchanges involving multiple officers.
The project sought to compile posts, comments, and other public activity that could undermine public trust in the police and reinforce the views of critics, especially in minority communities, that the police are not there to protect them.
Of the pages of officers whom the Plain View researchers could positively identify, about 1 in 5 of the current officers, and 2 in 5 of the retired officers, made public posts or comments that met that threshold — typically by displaying bias, applauding violence, scoffing at due process, or using dehumanizing language. The officers mocked Mexicans, women, and black people, celebrated the Confederate flag, and showed a man wearing a kaffiyeh scarf in the crosshairs of a gun.
“Just another savage that needs to be exterminated,” wrote Booker Smith Jr., a Dallas police sergeant, about a homicide at a Dollar General store.
...
And in St. Louis, Officer Thomas Mabrey shared a false news report that distorted an incident in which a woman police officer was shot responding to a call from a Moroccan man in Lebanon, Ohio. “F these muslem turd goat humpers,” he wrote, one of numerous anti-Muslim posts.
...
In Philadelphia, which has roughly 6,600 officers, the Plain View Project identified 1,073 on Facebook, about a third of whom had made troubling posts or comments.
The Plain View Project shared its research with Injustice Watch, a Chicago-based nonprofit newsroom, which discovered many officers who made offensive posts were also accused of brutality or civil rights violations. Of 328 officers in Philadelphia who posted troubling content, more than a third — 139 officers — appeared to have had one or more federal civil rights lawsuits filed against them, based on name, badge number, and other corroborating details. Of that group, a hundred ended in settlements or verdicts against them or the city.
...
Philadelphia Officer Christian Fenico, who appears on Facebook under the name Chris Joseph and posted the “should have shot him” comment in September 2013, has twice been accused of excessive and unprovoked force. In both cases, men claimed that he choked them. Both lawsuits ended in payments by the city to settle the claims.
...
In a post about refugees, he wrote, “Let them starve to death. I hate every last one of them.”
The city paid $110,000 to settle a case brought by a man who said Fenico came to his home responding to a call and then beat him, breaking his nose, and choking him to unconsciousness even after his partner tried to pull him away, saying, “that’s enough,” the lawsuit said.
Another man’s lawsuit described the trouble that ensued after the family called police to report that a driver had hit a family member’s car and then attempted to flee. Fenico, one of the officers who responded to the call, ended up in an argument during which Fenico pointed his gun at the man, threatened to shoot him, and punched and choked him until he lost consciousness, according to the lawsuit. The man received $5,000.
Also in Philadelphia, Officer Robert Oakes appeared to belittle domestic abuse, writing, “Oh baby, oh baby, PLEAsE DONT!!!!! stop!!!!! resisting!!!!!” and “no means yes!!!!! They just don’t know it….”
...
The offensive posts were not just by the rank and file. At least 64 of the Philadelphia officers have leadership roles, serving as corporals, sergeants, lieutenants, captains, or inspectors, according to an employment roster from January.

www.foxnews.com/us/utah-officer-who-pulled-gun-on-black-child-sparks-protestsWOODS CROSS, Utah – Activists are planning to protest at a police agency in northern Utah after learning an officer who pulled his gun on a 10-year-old child will continue to work.
Black Lives Matter in Utah founder Lex Scott said Thursday they will hold a protest Friday night to demand the officer be fired.
Woods Cross Police Chief Chad Soffe said Monday he is not looking to terminate the unidentified officer.
Jerri Hrubes, who is black, said a white Woods Cross police officer pulled his gun on her son while he was playing outside on June 6.

Tanakh fan:
So this is what "Straight Pride" looks like.....
As for putting rapists and adulterers to death, can we take this to mean he wants to volunteer to assassinate Trump? (We all know the answer to that one.)

Also, their bad attitudes do not change after they leave the police force:
Worse, they are not arrested by the current police for such obvious crimes!

Victim: "Can you tell me why I'm being arrested?"
Racist: "Because I feel like arresting you."

newsmaven.io/pinacnews/cops-gone-rogue/nypd-arrests-tow-truck-driver-on-felonies-for-daring-to-repossess-a-cop-s-car-IMWHm5ALE0KuJMRszMHVhg/
Nobody likes seeing their car getting towed but usually there's nothing you can do about it unless you're a New York City police officer and can do what the hell you want.
In this case, the tow truck driver ended up in jail for 20 hours on a felony charge of possession of stolen property after trying to repossess a Nissan Maxima from an NYPD officer who had missed three payments.
Tow truck driver Jose Rodriguez was also unable to work for two weeks because the cops refused to remove a boot they had placed on it when arresting him.
The cop whose car was getting repossessed called his cop buddies who showed up after Rodriguez had already lifted the car onto his truck. They surrounded him and handcuffed him, then they removed the car from the truck and drove it away while taking him to jail.
But by the sounds of it, they were the ones who were stealing the car because it had already been repossessed by the bank but they are protected by Blue Privilege.
...
The felony charge of possession of stolen property against Rodriguez was reduced to a misdemeanor charges of falsifying documents and possession of police scanners, allegations he denies.
But the NYPD still has not returned his phone, laptop, iPad and cameras, including one that snapped a photo of a cop tampering with it, sending it to his cloud posted below.

And when all else fails, there is always this technique:

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/jul/16/eric-garner-death-new-york-no-chargesFederal prosecutors will not charge the New York police officer implicated in the chokehold death of Eric Garner, an African American man killed almost five years ago.
The decision announced by the US attorney Richard Donoghue on Tuesday was another blow to the Garner family, figureheads in the Black Lives Matter movement, who have campaigned to hold the NYPD accountable. US justice department sources said the final call on the non-indictment was made by the attorney general, William Barr.
Garner’s death, on 17 July 2014, became a focal point for national conversation on race and policing. Garner’s last words, “I can’t breathe”, were chanted by protesters across the US.
On Tuesday, Garner’s mother, Gwen Carr, said: “Five years ago my son said ‘I can’t breathe’ 11 times. Today we can’t breathe because they [the federal government] have let us down.”
The arrest was captured on cellphone video which showed Garner repeating the phrase 11 times as Officer Daniel Pantaleo pulled him to the ground in what has been described as a banned chokehold.
...
The most severe punishment the officer faces is losing his job. Under New York privacy laws the decision, which will be made by the NYPD commissioner, James O’Neill, does not have to be announced.
Pantaleo has remained employed since Garner’s death, working desk duty and earning a salary of more than $100,000.
Speaking to the Guardian during Pantaleo’s administrative trial, Garner’s mother Gwen Carr expressed exasperation.
“There is no justice at all for Eric,” she said. “The harshest punishment is firing. They murdered him and if there was going to be justice, it would have been at the point when he said ‘I can’t breathe’.”
Of course there is no justice. You are talking to Western civilization!
So, Carr, are you willing to apply your Second Amendment?

I just had a thought: considering the police suicide rate,
www.huffpost.com/entry/for-third-straight-year-police-suicides-outnumber-line-of-duty-deaths_n_5c2d110de4b05c88b70542faHow many of these suicides were out of disgust for the system of which they were a part? How many could have taken out one bad cop with them and didn't?

The algorithm of Western civilized behaviour:
1: *punch*
2: "Stop resisting!"
3: Is victim resisting? (Y/N)
4: If Y, go to 1
5: If N, go to 1This is what they did to us continuously for 500 years during the colonial era (while claiming to be "civilizing" us).

www.thedailybeast.com/white-officer-demoted-for-posting-racist-videos-mocking-black-woman-walking-homeA young, black woman walked home in the bitter cold on Tuesday night while a white Detroit police officer openly mocked her on social media, with Snapchat videos captioned “walk of shame” and “bye felicia.”
Officer Gary Steele reportedly pulled over Ariel Moore, 24, for having expired license-plate tabs. Her vehicle was towed, and so she walked the rest of the way home in the below-freezing weather.
Steele, meanwhile, drove alongside Moore, posting videos to his Snapchat with racial taunts like “What black girl magic looks like,” and “celebrating Black History Month.”

We passed the point of acceptable tolerability long ago. Truly dutiful citizens would have started shooting well before now:
news.yahoo.com/fbi-agents-reluctant-pursue-white-103543457.html
FBI agents are hesitant to investigate white nationalist extremists because they don't want to be seen as pursuing investigations against President Donald Trump's base, a former FBI counterterrorism agent told The Washington Post.
...
"There's some reluctance among agents to bring forth an investigation that targets what the president perceives as his base," Gomez said. "It's a no-win situation for the FBI agent or supervisor."
He said that Trump's repeated criticism of the FBI and its investigation into Russian election interference and collusion were likely factors as well.
If nothing is done, WNs will eventually become as immune to state justice as Jews already are.

We already know!
www.cbsnews.com/news/st-louis-sergeant-there-are-white-supremacists-on-the-police-force/"Do you think that there are white supremacists on the police force?" asked CBS News correspondent Jeff Pegues.
"Yes" said Heather Taylor, an almost 19-year veteran on the St. Louis Metro police force.
"You didn't even pause," Pegues said.
"Have you seen some of the Facebook posts of some of our suspended officers right now?"
Duh!
SLMPD told CBS News in a survey that implicit bias training has been mandatory for officers once a year since October of 2014, two months after Michael Brown's death. But Taylor said that the training was optional, and that it's "pretty obvious" that it hasn't worked.
If it worked do you think we would get stories like the following?

www.laprogressive.com/galveston-police-put-black-man-on-a-leash/In the image above, Donald Neely can be seen walking with his hands behind his back. The leash is clearly shown and appears to be held on one end by a Galveston Police Officer who is on horseback. The Galveston Police Department does not deny the accuracy of the photograph, instead, they attempt to deny that Mr. Neely was being led by a leash.. The Galveston Police Department issued a press release that characterizes what is seen in the image as a “a line”, instead of a leash
The victim was arrested for trespassing. Would they have done the same to a "white" trespasser? I think we all know the answer.

www.wmcactionnews5.com/2019/08/15/white-sheriffs-text-lawmaker-worse-than-black-person/TUPELO, Miss. (AP) - A Mississippi sheriff said in a text message to another white elected official that a Hispanic state lawmaker is "worse than a black person."
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal used a public records request to obtain Lee County Sheriff Jim Johnson's messages.
The newspaper reports Johnson exchanged messages in 2017 with Lee County Supervisor Phil Morgan about building a new jail. Both men complained about state Rep. Shane Aguirre (ah-GARE-ee). A screenshot of the exchange shows Johnson wrote: "He's worse than a black person, your not going to please him."
Ethnic stereotypes based on the Western hierarchical model are alive and well.
