[ItsjustMe]

Loveland Colorado police pays a $3 million settlement after assaulting a woman with dementia. David Shuster breaks it down on Rebel HQ.

1. Actually that would be the Loveland CO taxpayers

The police themselves aren't paying a dime.

5. Which is a HUGE problem.

All police officers should be required to carry liability insurance and it should come out of their pay AFTER taxes, just like auto insurance. The more incidents they have, the higher their premiums, just like auto insurance.

Make it so assholes like this simply can not afford to be cops.

7. Hyperbole. Their liability policy is paying the $$. Their annual rate may go up a bit but...

...it won't break the bank (I.e. General Budget). I doubt their property taxes will go up due to this settlement. No, that's not right, I know that property taxes won't be going up $3,000,000 for the next evaluation period. And trash collection won't double either.

The police certainly fucked up and were criminal in their behavior. That's how things like this should be treated. As criminal acts too.

2. That's good to hear

I hope they also have to pay the people whose dog they shot.

Maybe this is the only way to get taxpayers to pay attention to what the cops are doing.

3. They should be locked up too

4. Just a few bad apples, and all.

Same department that employed the scumbag that shot the dog


Fuck those assholes.

They should have their ability to carry a badge and a gun revoked forever and be charged with felony assault causing grievous bodily injury.

6. The Police Department Paid Nothing. The taxpayer pays the bill for all government lawsuits.

8. This system cannot be reformed.
