Joseph Biden, creep level: Master

Biden takes his creep game to the next level as this video goes viral. He's already been known for being a bit of a creeper but this is straight up cringe worthy.



On Tuesday, Vice President Joe Biden conducted the swearing-in of Senators in front of cameras and press and with no small amount of awkward commentary and uncomfortable moments. For all the weirdness, though, one moment really stood out, and left most of the internet crying out "I need an adult" for several hours.

Didn't really think this warranted its own thread.

Citizens Order Cop to 'Drop the Gun' After He Pulled It on an Unarmed Woman and It Worked

Boston, MA — A video uploaded to YouTube Friday shows a Boston police officer attempting to arrest a woman on a city bus in Dudley Square. The woman was allegedly under arrest for a petty theft, according to the video’s description.

During the incident, the woman begins to resist the officer’s advance and within seconds the officer recklessly draws his service weapon to use against the unarmed woman on a bus full of passengers. During the altercation, at least four passengers can be seen recording on their cell phones. As the situation progressed, this level of accountability proved extremely valuable.

Immediately after the trigger happy cop draws his gun, several bystanders can be heard ordering him to drop his weapon informing the officer that the woman, while resisting, obviously had no means of escape. The officer, after repeatedly being commanded to disarm, begrudgingly holstered his weapon. The onlookers then proceed to instruct both the officer and the woman to “relax” and “chill.” Several passengers can also be heard telling the woman to calm down, offering reassurance by saying “we’re here.”

This no doubt speaks to the us vs. them mentality that many Americans justifiably hold towards law enforcement.

After a brief (non-fatal) struggle, more officers arrive and assist in arresting the woman without further incident or injury to themselves, the female suspect, or any innocent bystanders. This is an amazing example of how pressuring a police officer not to harm another person when unnecessary, can actually work.

^^^Not sticking up for the cop here but once again this situation could have been avoided if the woman would have complied with the officer. If you start throwing punches at the police bad things will happen.

Still, excessive force.
 
The City of Chicago just released the dash cam footage of the shooting, start watching at about 5:20.




Yikes.
 
The kicker for me is the 18 or so official complaints against that particular officer (which included excessive force and racial abuse) that went unheeded by the department prior to this shooting. This shooting didn't even lead to disciplinary action until this video was released.
