Have you guys read the thread at domelights? Apparently it is true.


Well were the residents using racist terms?

Or did the officers take exception to the words gangster or Thug or Drug Dealer?

This situation probably comes down to how people interpret words. I have used the word Thug and Baby Momma Drama on here and was immediatly called racist even though I wasn't referring to any particular race.

People need to realize that Thug does not relate to any specific skin color, it relates to a type of person who could be any catagory skin color.

It really shouldn't matter(that's not condoning it). These are civil affairs officers and just like any other cop they should be used to hearing all types of derogatory terms hurled at them and should know how to deal with it in a professionl manner. As far as if the incident did actually happen, I would think so just from reading the multiple posts on domelights gives it enough credibility for me. I can't see any reason why a bunch of cops would make something up like this regarding their own.

Your right about that. I am just trying to get as much information about the situation as possible before stating an opinion. Yes you are right though about the police being trained to ignore this stuff.


Will we ever see the internal affairs report?

First off...spell my name correctly if you are going to toss me under the bus.

Second....I didnt start anything so go back under your rock.

This thread is about a completely different incident so lets keep it that way...
