#61: Uvalde Failure, Has This Taught Us The Truth About Police?
from Heavy Metal Philosophy · host Jon Barbas
This past week the country witnessed the shocking failure of police to act in the face of tragedy. However, there are numerous cases in history to show this isn't an aberration. It even goes all the way to the Supreme Court. In this episode we'll discuss these cases and also gun control policy suggestions. This will be uncomfortable to put it mildly. Let's hope we don't have to have anymore episodes like this one and we can go back to celebrating metal as this channel was intended for.Article Links;Parkland Deputy Hidhttps://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/05/15/fact-check-parkland-officer-who-failed-act-shooting-gets-job-back/5194831002/Castle Rock vs Gonzaleshttps://www.oyez.org/cases/2004/04-278Philando Castilehttps://www.vox.com/2016/7/7/12116288/minnesota-police-shooting-philando-castile-falcon-heights-videoUvalde Trained for This Situation Beforehttps://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/texas-uvalde-school-police-training-b2089223.htmlPolice Liehttps://thecolumn.substack.com/p/after-uvalde-police-lie-should-be?s=rClapper Liehttps://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2016-11-17/lawmakers-resume-calls-for-james-clapper-perjury-chargesPolice Tear Gashttps://www.cnn.com/2020/06/05/politics/park-police-tear-gas/index.htmlHeavy Metal Philosophy Contact;https://www.spreaker.com/show/[email protected]://mobile.twitter.com/heaviestdoyenhttps://www.facebook.com/HeaviestDoyenhttps://www.instagram.com/heavy_metal_philosophy/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh2KCIU5z_F6DRH05xHsJMA#Uvalde #Parkland #Police #Reform #SupremeCourt #GunControl #Philosophy
