New York Police Department official Zachary Tumin has been placed in charge of the NYPD’s social media p̶r̶e̶s̶e̶n̶c̶e̶ propaganda. But the Deputy Commissioner doesn’t seem to be helping things for the infamously militarized police department that former Mayor Bloomberg rightly termed a “private army.”

Recently, Tumin gave the world a glimpse into the warped psyche of police brutality. He tweeted that innocent people shot by cops have “gone off their meds” and are “walking into police bullets.”

Perhaps the cops see us as zombies that need to be put down.


Of course, I'm just kidding (or am I), but it does kind of sound like it, doesn't it?

for me if a cop believe that a plant of the creation is illegal and a genetically modified organism like corns that will produce continuously round up is legal, I know that his/her brain is dead. Does it make it a zombie? who cares...

Hahaha, great pics.

I think the cops are sick of people who are doing criminal or suspicous things getting pissed that the cops are in their face. People can be very self centered. If you're being a shady character you should expect the heat to follow.

Lol, Thanks.

This is actually about innocent bystanders getting hit by stray bullets, not about dangerous suspects getting shot for endangering peoples' lives. What's even worse, if the cops were shooting at you, then you could also be charged for wounding or killing them. (Even if you were just going for your wallet.)

Not zombies,  X-men. Because only a fictional speed-mutant could be fast enough to walk into a bullet. I for one think we should support our hyper-militarized, poorly trained, low IQ police force in their just and righteous war against our mutant oppressors.

Did someone mention low-IQ cops?

Court OKs Barring High IQs for Cops

A man whose bid to become a police officer was rejected after he scored too high on an intelligence test has lost an appeal in his federal lawsuit against the city.

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York upheld a lower court’s decision that the city did not discriminate against Robert Jordan because the same standards were applied to everyone who took the test.

“This kind of puts an official face on discrimination in America against people of a certain class,” Jordan said today from his Waterford home. “I maintain you have no more control over your basic intelligence than your eye color or your gender or anything else.”

He said he does not plan to take any further legal action.

Jordan, a 49-year-old college graduate, took the exam in 1996 and scored 33 points, the equivalent of an IQ of 125. But New London police interviewed only candidates who scored 20 to 27, on the theory that those who scored too high could get bored with police work and leave soon after undergoing costly training.

Most Cops Just Above Normal The average score nationally for police officers is 21 to 22, the equivalent of an IQ of 104, or just a little above average.

Jordan alleged his rejection from the police force was discrimination. He sued the city, saying his civil rights were violated because he was denied equal protection under the law.

But the U.S. District Court found that New London had “shown a rational basis for the policy.” In a ruling dated Aug. 23, the 2nd Circuit agreed. The court said the policy might be unwise but was a rational way to reduce job turnover.

Jordan has worked as a prison guard since he took the test.

Story is from the year 2000, but tells of a really depressing mindset by police forces.

Indeed. They just want dogs or robots (or dogbots) that obey orders. Intelligent people may question those orders or even feel compelled to testify against the brotherhood at times.
