Hollywood Blvd & Schrader, 8:31 PM:

ME: 500,000 people are dead from COVID.

SGT SHAPIRO: No. That’s not true.

How it started: saw Sgt Willers (chronically doing out-of-policy stuff) and Shapiro, and asked them to put on masks.

They refused, then started with the flashlights and floodlights.

Shapiro is constitutionally illiterate. I informed him it’s a 1st amendment violation to use flashlights to interfere with filming. He said it’s not true. 🥴

The LAPD admits it’s a constitutional violation. Unsurprisingly, an LAPD *supervisor* doesn’t know the basics. (3/...)

ME: “This is what Captain Laurie’s people do.”

SGT SHAPIRO: “That’s right!”

(4/...)

Here I call-out LAPD anti-masker Shapiro for his penchant to wear face masks *on his bodycam*.

You’d think at this point he’s put on his mask. He chose not to.

(5/...)

LAPD SHAPIRO: Who cares about your video?

Well, we shall find out what your superiors think of it.

(7/...)

LAPD SHAPIRO: “You do this for money.”

Think of the intellectual rot needed to think a community member would *only* document police misconduct for money. How does one monetize that?

(8/...)

LAPD SHAPIRO: “Your 15 minutes of fame are over, buddy!”

Is that a threat? If so, his 15 mins of fame are just beginning.

(9/...)

Anti maskers Shapiro & Willers feel its selfish to hold them accountable for their own misconduct. 🤔

Never forget the character shown by the LAPD during this pandemic. Especially the disgusting refusal to wear masks among Captain Laurie and Captain Brian Bixler’s guys.

LAPD Shapiro: “I’m probably going to get fired. ... Make sure you email the Mayor and all them.”

Works for me. What do you think @cd4losangeles?

(11/...)

It’s amazing that after all this time, this LAPD supervisor *still* doesn’t understand LAPD’s own policy.

These are Captain Laurie’s guys, for ya.

Amoral cop claims person that holds cop accountable for cop’s misconduct is ‘immoral’. 🥴
