    Perhaps Bakersfield needs to introduce a higher IQ limit than it currently has in its recruitment qualification for police. IQ of 50 is too low.

    I live on the other side of the country and don't know much at all about their police force, but I would agree with you that they need to revisit their recruitment qualification. You have to be a moron to not know that someone who is 8 inches shorter and 55 pounds lighter isn't your guy.

    Thanks for your agreement.that "officers involved should be charged with assault and wrongful arrest and drummed out of the police force along with all their racist bigoted buddies.".

    What we have is a case of incompetent police, but it's certainly not an isolated incident that the right will lead you to believe.

    It cost over $140,000 for the first two cases combined. Funny how it's okay to point out incompetent employees in every field of work except law enforcement..........

    Remember now, if you don't commit a crime and follow the law then this won't happen........

    Absurd. Why are you people against training our police not to abuse our citizens?

    Cops make me ****ing sick with this BS.

    Lol! Sure, all the cops are racists. That's another good reason to disarm the populace and have only cops be armed. :D

    Sickening. The police in this country need to be retrained on de-escalation methods. Confrontational policing doesn't help anyone.

    No one is disarming the population and I'd dare them to try.

    The police need to be trained on de-escalation tactics, not military style confrontationalism, which attracts a certain dickless type of bitch military wannabes without the balls to sign up and fight under uncle sam.

    It would help to, you know, get the right person from the start...........?

    But that would involve good policing, and who on Earth would want such a thing?

    I'm completely missing the racist angle here. Was the guy they were looking for black? If he was, so is she. The problem here is they went after the wrong person. It's pretty damn impossible to mistake a short thin black woman for a tall heavy black man.

    Not if you're a steroid pumped adrenaline junky military wannabe ****** with an axe to grind. These cops are always looking for a fight. Doesn't matter who you are or what you do.

    Seems really important to you that Sanchez is classified as white - even though the rest of the non-batshitcrazy world knows the difference between white and Hispanic. Check out your next WIC update application if you doubt.

    Your agenda: stripped bare in one post.

    Why do you hate Hispanics? Why do you assume Hispanics are racist towards black people?

    Which is irrelevant.

    We still do not know all of the details.

    The story is different but people's reactions are the same as it has been since ferguson and even before that. Everyone is rushing to judgement before all the details are known.

    In Ferguson it was assumed by many that The shooting of brown by Wilson was murder. Only to have the facts come out and prove conclusively that it was a justified shooting.

    This is another such stupid rush to judgement.
