This is Handel on the Law, marginal legal advice, where I tell you you have absolutely no case.

And let me start with kind of a fun lawsuit.

And this has to do with the LAPD.

Now, let me tell you about the LAPD.

It has gone from being the most racist police force in the country, especially, well, historically, it was very racist. Go back 100 years, for example. Do you know that during the Depression, the LAPD was responsible for not having people come into the city of Los Angeles, mainly the folks from Oklahoma, the dust bowlers who would come in and you saw those Model T cars or those cars that were a little bit newer, packed with mattresses and rocking chairs and pots and pans dangling

off the side, driving in from the Midwest, particularly Oklahoma, from the Dust Bowl.

These farmers that, of course, could not farm anymore.

We're starving to death, so they come into Southern California or try to.

Well, the Lapd was tasked with

making sure that they did not come in they actually now lapd went to the california nevada

border to stop people from coming in to california into Los Angeles. It was crazy. Also,

completely racist, the LAPD. And then throughout its history, it became one of the most professional

police forces, was given the reputation of being the most professional police force in the

country. Best dressed, by the way, year after year after year, LAPD uniforms were just

terrific. Then you had the Christopher Commission come in because there was the Watts riots and,

I mean, history after history after history. So now, today, police get sued for virtually everything,

as you know. I interviewed a cop a while ago and he said, I got two choices when I go out on a call,

especially if I'm being told there is an armed perpetrator or an armed suspect.

I either wait and get shot, or I shoot and I get sued, or sometimes go to jail because I've shot wrongly.

And so that's how tough it is to be a cop these days.

So here's what happened back in 2020.

This four years ago and the case just settled.
