A Birmingham police officer was beaten unconscious by a suspect on Friday after a traffic stop turned violent, but his ordeal wasn’t over there.


The officer, a detective and six-year veteran of the force, was lying bruised and bloodied on a sidewalk after a suspect took his gun and pistol-whipped him when a crowd began to gather. But instead of helping the badly injured officer, some of the people there took pictures and posted them on social media, mocking the cop and praising the man who beat him.

The incident took place after a traffic stop on Friday morning. Police said the officer pulled over 34-year-old Janard Shamar Cunningham, also known as Janaris Shavar Cunningham, when the suspect allegedly got out of his car and began arguing with the officer.

Cunningham, who was being stopped in connection to some burglaries in the area, allegedly began fighting with the officer and gained control of the man’s handgun. The suspect allegedly pistol-whipped the officer until the cop was on the ground, bloody and motionless.

Police pursued Cunningman as he fled and caught up with him about one mile away. He was taken into custody.

But as medics tended to the fallen officer, some people took pictures and mocked the cop on Twitter and Facebook.

Other officers were enraged at how the man was treated.

“He was laying there lifeless and people were standing around taking pictures,” said Birmingham police Sgt. Heath Boackle, president of the Fraternal Order of Police. “If the tables were turned, and that was a suspect lying there, they would be rioting.”

Boackle said the incident underscores the need for better relations between police and the community, and the perception about the dangers of police work.

“If the officer would have shot him, then he would have shot an ‘unarmed man.’ Instead, he took the gun from the officer,” Boackle said of Friday’s incident. “The officer had every right to shoot him. We’re lucky we’re not talking about him killing the officer.”

Janard Cunningham has been charged with attempted murder for allegedly pistol-whipping the police officer, WIAT reported. The detective was taken to the hospital but was later released and is now recovering at his home.

I wish the story went like this:

Cop pulls over car during traffic stop. During stop, burglary suspect wrestles with cop and beats him bloody by pistol whipping him. While on top of he cop and while repeatedly hitting the cop in the face, an innocent bystander walks up, puts their own gun to suspects temple and shoots him execution style.

I would go to that guy's parade...... :2thumbs

Not surprised about taking pictures, though.
I was at Stone Mountain today, and was riding on the train there, because the ladyfriend wanted to ride it, and it's a cool way to chillax after hiking the mountain. So along the route, we had to stop and pick up someone that had a medical emergency (I think they either suffered heat exhaustion or dehydration.) So, while the firefighters and park personnel were loading this person who was stretcher-bound on a train, I could see people standing up and leaning out the window to take pictures of this happening. I remember thinking "dudes, not cool." And the lady on the P.A. kept telling people to sit down and stay inside the train.

Fuckin' animals.

Yep, and that's the sad reality.

After Sandy hit we were without power for nearly a month. After a week there were cops robbing local convenience shops at night for anything/everything; fights breaking out at any/every gas station you could get to over a gallon of gas; sky rocketing residential/business robberies; countless out of state people coming here scamming (robbing) the elderly posing as contractors/insurance agents/etc who could help them get on their feet real quick; etc etc.

Yessir. I'm not sure if that reached the news b/c I was without cell/net for nearly a month (as was most of the Eastern Coast :lol: ), but I''ll dig around to see if anyone posted an article from back then. Most of the articles I'm finding are NY based, but the same shit was happening here. Googling 'Hurricane Sandy Looting' brings up 20+ pages of related articles.

Try googling "Tropical Storm Sandy". That's much more accurate.

Why not just be done with shitty people? There are plenty of black people I'd rather live next-door to than a white meth-head.
Remove the shitty, asshole people from each group and we'd all get along just fine.
