Cop to Asian citizen: "You’re not f***ing American"

[Generic Other]

The security cameras are certainly catching SOME people showing their true colors. I found this story while following a link in another thread posted by DeflefK's. The story was about a mundane police raid in Chicago of an Asian operated tanning salon. Probably a prostitution sting or something. It was what they caught on camera that was so revealing. The story is two years old, but the IPRA just made their recommendations about the police misconduct that occurred here.

Here's the article I found:
IPRA fails to pursue potential crime by cops caught on video
Video of a police raid on a tanning salon in 2013 shows Chicago police officers engaging in potentially criminal activity. Some of that activity was reviewed by the Independent Police Review Authority but not all.

Di Pasquale starts yelling back at her, saying,“you’re not f***ing American. I’ll put you in a UPS box and send you back to wherever the f*** you came from.” He then says he’s going to shut down the salon, “and then whoever owns this place will f****** kill you because they don’t care about you, okay? I’ll make one call and I’ll take this building and you’ll be dead and your family will be dead.”

Another officer hits Klyzek in the head while she’s handcuffed and kneeling on the ground.

By the way, the woman is a naturalized citizen. There was a video of the whole event which included the Keystone cop-like discussion near the end of the recording about how to disable the video cam (remotely filming their antics throughout):

Charges were dropped.

Here is a condensed version of events someone made that shows the cop striking the woman and the other one screaming at her:

The IPRA has had their own headaches with corruption in the ranks of the Chicago Police Dept. DetlefK's thread also writes of efforts to silence and intimidate IPRA board members who are black. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/09/24/1424510/-The-deep-ugly-and-damn-near-unbelievable-rabbit-hole-of-violence-corruption-within-the-Chicago-PD?showAll=yes

The recommendations of the IPRA in this tanning salon bust was that Officer Pascale be suspended for 25 days and the one who punched the woman be suspended for 8 days. A slap on the hand. Obviously the Asian American community is unhappy, but probably not surprised about the attitude expressed toward them. So just to remind any minority group that thinks they are immune to this sort of shit...as far as the cops are concerned when they deal with African Americans, Latino Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans...the only lives that matter are blue ones.

1. And cops wonder why they're not appreciated. n/t

[SamKnause]

2. Zero trust.

Zero respect.

They have worked diligently to earn both.

Armed gangs paid for with our tax dollars.

Sick.

To add insult to injury, when they fuck up our tax dollars pay for those as well.

Really sick.

3. There are domestic threats greater than those from the middle east.

Chicago PD is certainly one of those greater threats.

4. Makes you wonder

If anyone at one time yelled at that cop's ancestors, "You're not American"
And, every one of those cops standing by watching what was going on should be suspended or better yet, fired.

5. When cops go pork.

Since cops and pigs dress the same, it is hard to know the difference until they are right up on you.

6. I remember that story. Cop's true colors came out on who is American to them (same

as always)
