Tacoma Police Department

Thank you for these kind words and all TPD does for our community

Are you guys checking body cams to see if we are resting knees on peoples necks to subdue them? Not at all saying we are, just saying that guy clearly thought it was proper procedure/use of force.

Thanks for posting this Exactly what the public needed to read.

You could also give voice to what it is. Murder. Be the people we need you to be during this time.

Not really. Your officers, few times, have not helped us. Your officers even violated ADA act many times. Won't try to communicate with me. Tells me my story is not true. I have no faith in your department. I'm deaf and I work for city of Tacoma. (Msg continued next)

Your dept has been sued by Lashonn White to provide training how to communicate with deaf people. Yet your officers DO NOT follow it. Plus city of Tacoma ordered all employees to take training to be attentive and comply with ADA to provide services for ppl with Disabilities.

Your officers didn't comply with city's directive. Many residents here has said your dept doesn't care, period. I agree with them. Few of your officers even threatened us after we tried to call for help. Y'all suck.

As a citizen I’m pleading for your department and others to train de escalate not lethal force. Also when a death or injury happens at the hands of an officer it’s investigated like a crime. Then if cleared put them back on duty. We need protection not fear.
