I’ll tell you what will happen. The author of the book “How to sue the Police” will cut him a cheque, make a land grant of 10,000 acres near Whistler and name a bridge after him.

With so much video, the internet does its thing with frame by frame analysis. Then moves on to the next vid.
I find the civil payouts of interest. But, that comes after the incident is no longer front page news.
Yep, although the way I heard it, it was more the whole course that was blamed for it.

Don't be a jerk to other officers. Especially if you just got sanctioned for it a few months ago.

Inappropriate remarks aside, deliberately performing a DT technique incorrectly during training has injured a number of officers. I missed out on an upcoming course a few years back due to an officer injuring me during a recertification session. The officer rightfully failed.

I have a feeling a lot of these officers are just lacking a healthy, loving sexual relationship.
It's ok to be kinky, but keep it in your private life FFS.

According to the CBC report,
The incident happened during a meeting of the service’s Afro-Caribbean Canadian Internal Support Network
Association president Andrew Tummonds said he supports the findings of the investigation, but he said he's spoken with members who were present during the incident who felt "there was no need for any discipline whatsoever."
If they don’t see a reason for any discipline than they have a bigger problem.

Just using a word isn’t enough reason for discipline in my opinion, the context it was used in matters.
Was other people using it but he was the only white officer to do so? Was it being used as a example of a racialized term? Was it being directed at someone?
Lots of information missing other than the word was used. That information matters. Those who were present have more information on the context than you or me.

We don't know the 'culturally inappropriate word' that was used, but at least one source said it was the 'n-word'. If that's true, I have a hard time envisioning a suitable context where a public office holder could use the term.

Yes, I'm curious what you're thinking and if there's something I missed.
The members who attended, presumably most of them black, felt there was no need for any disciplinary measures. To me that suggests 1 of 3 things:
1. The context the word was used in wasn't offensive to the majority of attendees;
2. The attendees are so used to offensive language it's been normalized; or
3. The attendees are afraid of police retribution.

The inability to grasp the concept of in store security cameras should get her fired, if nothing else ...
