    Police are bastards, but we might want to check the article out before switching to outrage mode

    As part of his social-media postings, Galanakis made several statements, alleging he “basically got kidnapped then raped by the NPD all night,” and falsely indicating Winters had been “convicted” of domestic abuse for beating up a girlfriend.

    So it’s not the posting of the video w/ commentary that they’re saying it’s defamatory, it’s claiming he was ‘raped’ and the false domestic abuse accusation. Stupid teen was in an excellent position for compensation but he’s probably wrecked his chances with statements like that.

      Try reading the article before you start polishing those boots.

      As for the city’s complaint that Galanakis claimed to have been “kidnapped then raped,” Judge Locher found that statement was a clear and allowable expression of opinion and rhetorical hyperbole.

          Lol I don’t know, man. Your post was very “hey fellow kids, the po-po are total bastards BUT you also need to read the article to see why they’re right” and then you rushed to defend them. Without reading the article. Which you were chiding people for not doing.

          Edit 2 seconds later: you also called Galanakis a “stupid teen” which makes me think you’re probably in the wrong community.

            I used a descriptor, so what. If he was a grown man who gobbed off on social media before he finished his court case, I’d have called him a stupid man. And, you don’t get to tell me what community I can be in, thanks. I haven’t broken any rules. Finally, I’m not defending anyone, just pointing out why they were counter-claiming.

            I can see why people didn’t like my comment, fair enough. But I’m not a bootlicker or police supporter for adding info I thought others had missed. We all make mistakes from time to time.

              If you made a mistake just say that and dip.

              I used a descriptor, so what. If he was a grown man who gobbed off on social media before he finished his court case, I’d have called him a stupid man.

              Except he’s not stupid. The only reason we’re talking about this is because he brought attention to it and fought back against a corrupt institution by posting it on social media.

              “I’m not a bootlicker!” says the dude whose mouth is full of boot.
