Born To Slay 10,996 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 http://longisland.news12.com/story/36000492/police-react-to-president-trumps-comments-on-being-rough-with-suspects BRENTWOOD - Suffolk and Nassau police are reacting to President Trump's suggestion they be rough with suspects. "Please don't be too nice," the President said at Suffolk Community College on Friday. "Like when you guys put somebody in the car and you're protecting their head, you know, the way you put their hand over...you can take the hand away, okay?" Suffolk police condemned the practice, writing on Twitter that they have strict rules and procedures for handling prisoners and that they will not tolerate roughing up prisoners. Nassau police responded by saying they train officers to ensure all individuals arrive in a safe manner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmeraldHeart 335 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 While they are saying they are against what he said, I want to see some action by Suffolk police who have been accused multiple times of racial discrimination and cover ups https://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/30/nyregion/latinos-file-class-action-case-accusing-suffolk-police-of-bias-and-harassment.html https://www.longislandpress.com/2016/12/22/several-suffolk-cops-charged-in-burke-beating-cover-up-case-docs-show/ http://www.newsday.com/news/nation/civil-rights-suit-charges-suffolk-police-racial-discrimination-1.5792258 http://www.newsday.com/opinion/letters/letter-discrimination-in-suffolk-police-force-1.12222263 Not impressed by the facade. It's easy to say you won't tolerate dirty cops, but it's another thing to act. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sister 9,907 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 This Trump. He is like a random alien acting as a mouth piece for society. The future's uncertain and the end is always near. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joemayzin 4,032 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 as a resident of Long Island myself (Nassau County) i will agree that i didn't like what Trump has said at all but i do respect the police personally and while i have heard some bad stories about how they operate out here, they are the ones in charge. its so sad seeing how people are treated when they are being arrested and its pretty disgusting sometimes but if you legit did something against the law then you should be arrested and prosecuted!! In a safe matter of course, while i understand some people fight back but there should be better training on how to handle the situation... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic 20,830 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I was born in Long Island technically, because that's where North Shore hospital is. I have family there in the more ritzy neighborhoods. I've been there quite a few times. I hope everyone's safe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
