@bombastinator - "I think the ACLU is ..."

You made some good points there. Thanks.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED....WHEN I WAS A KID THE PIGS WERE FUCKED TO US. THEY TRY TO GET OVER ON YOU FOR THEIR OWN EGO'S. THIS IS WHY PEOPLE SHOOT COPS. THE PIGS BRING IT ON THEMSELVES. THEY HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THE PEOPLE THAT PAY THEIR SALARIES. MAYBE WE SHOULD STOP PAYING TAXES AND BRING THE THE WHOLE SYSTEM TO ITS KNEES. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH IT COSTS THEM TO HAVE A HELICOPTER? LITERALLY MILLIONS A YEAR. FOR WHAT?????THEY PISS OUR TAX MONEY AWAY ON SHIT LIKE THAT. MAYBE THE SYSTEM AS A WHOLE HAD BETTER START LIVING WITHIN THEIR MEANS. AND IF THAT MEANS TAKING LESS...THEN SO BE IT. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE BEING FORCED TO DO. WHY SHOULDN'T THEY????????????

you people need to generalize less. there are some idiot and asshole cops, just like in every other job in society.

although things are different here in canada - in ottawa, police used their guns only 65 times last year, and 64 of the times they were used on animals

Dead is dead....I would rather be shot than Lyle Alzadoed into a neck wrencing wall slap! He will be lucky to make it!

I was raised in Chicago(the city, not the suburbs), lived in Bedstuy-Brooklyn, and now in Watts-L.A..

I've seen and experienced the ways the beast handles us common folk.

I know they're good cops, but I'm so inclined to say:
FUCK THE POLICE.

I think the government should make it more difficult to become a police officer, like having them go through a masters, not donut eating contests/.............over and out, PIGS.!!

at least he didnt end up as the (6TH UNARMED PERSON SHOT BY OUR LOCAL POLICE THIS WEEK .)The seattle police are very quick on the trigger they get scared and panic very easily.This cop should be prosecuted for being a pos.

FUCK THE POLICE! this is the kind of shit that gets cops killed. When you're a kid you're told to respect the cops because they're watching out for you. You fucking cops want respect from the people? then show some god damn respect for the people who're paying your fat donut eating asses. There are more and more people who're getting sick of their shit. One story after another of cops beating grandmas, BART officer shooting a man in the back WHILE HE'S IN HANDCUFFS, and now this? Mr. Obama you need to do something about this before the American people take care of it for you.

plz..dont even get me started on police officers in the U.S......they pretty much have a "i can do whatever i want badge" mentality, ultimately it's your word against thiers.

i wonder if it would still be considered a "tragic accident" if it were one of the policeman's offspring

We do give up freedoms for "safety". Not saying it's good or bad though. It just is.

On the other hand, the 'chief' or whoever was talking has to worry about being sued. If he admits an error by one of his policeman the family is a shoe-in for their legal case. So you have to also blame our litigous country as well .. even hospitals will withhold symptoms or potential errors for the same reason. Doesn't make it right and one day one of them will screw up so bad the laws will change, just wait for it.

And they wonder why we run from them.

This is appalling.

Sad...

i've been beaten and slammed arount plenty by the fuzz. sometimes i deserved it usually not. one time i was sleeping in my car, i pulled off the road 'cause i was nodding. next thing i know i'm being pulled out the window, the cop had his thumbs up under my jaw and pulled me from the car, then held me up like that. the pain was overwhelming. after a 2 hour search of my car he left leaving all my things scattered and trampled. i think the crime was he thought i was a girl, i've long hair and it makes the bulls crazy.

OMG, watching that guy get bulled over made me sick. :lays down:

the same people that are bitching about our men and women in uniform would be bitching if they got mugged downtown. get real people, 99% of the police force are honorable and do a great job for little money. Something about getting your head blown off at any traffic stop might give them an attitude, or seeing justice being blown apart by the ACLU at every turn.

It's true. Police and military attract people who want to be able to use power over others. There should be much stricter screening on the people who we give weapons to and have represent our laws.

I don't care what you say, Police are fucking cowards. They run around acting as if they are soldiers fight a fucking war, the soldiers have a right to be scared anyways, they always have enemies gunning for their heads.

Most police are cowards with guns, makes me wonder why most do the job anyways if you are a scared bitch, the job of police should be given to men and women with actual balls, and not attitude problems, because they are the worst kind of people to actually work law enforcement.

Believe me, I have actually only met about 1 cop in my whole fucking life who was actually cool. The rest are cowardly, cold, emotionless assholes who won't even give back a casual "hi" when you say hi to them. They are shit, and they need to be reviewed for cowardliness because honestly cowards with guns are worse than a hardened man holding a gun with composure . Cowards shoot out of fear, brave people shoot when threatened and when they have to. Remember that, and that cop should be fired for doing that to that kid. Anyone runs from the fucking cops when being chased, they're just like street thugs, you aren't going to stay there, and let them kick your ass are you?

Unfortunately a position of power and authority, such as police work, attracts people who crave power and authority. Alpha-male types are not necessarily the best kind of person to serve justice. I have a fear of the police. I teach my children to watch out for police just as much as I tell them to watch out for other types of people that can put them in danger.

I was a victim of police brutality when I was an infant.

My father was almost beaten to death by police. At the hospital they said he had a 10% chance of living. Someone started to read him his last rights, which he refused. They had to remove his spleen. He pulled through against the odds.

This was on an especially hot Easter in NYC, in 1976, and there were race riots (or something like that) going on. My mother, my sister, and I (in my baby carriage) were in the park when the riots started and the police were telling everyone to leave. My dad was just outside the park talking with friends and he was concerned about us, so he started towards us. The cops told him to stop, but he didn’t, nor would any parent who’s paternal instincts to protect their children kicked in.

So this great offense against the great might, power, and authority of these pigs was a good enough reason for them to severely and savagely beat my father near death, trampling my sister down, and knocking my carriage over causing me to fall out onto the ground. They also attacked my mother and a paramedic who was trying to get my dad into the ambulance. (I have no idea what the time-frame was, as I don’t remember anything about it since I was just a baby, but apparently it went on long enough for an ambulance to arrive, if it was not there already because of the riots).

We sued the cops, and as the case was going on, there was always a police vehicle outside of our apartment to intimidate us. We moved out of NYC out of fear, and when we settled out of court we were able to move away permanently, but we had such a huge family there and I missed out growing up with them. I and my sister were awarded $667 each and my mom & dad got a more substantial amount… I don’t remember exactly, but it was less than $100,000.

I propose that the problem today is not only with individual officers being "loose cannons" but with police training in general. Our police departments are becoming more and more miltitarized. We now have paramilitary police forces with assault rifles and armored vehicles, and that use military tactics.

Here is one article I found on the subject.

Any other thoughts about this?

We run from the police cause they do things like this.. Its not an accident these cops do it all the time. Police brutality is all over Miami, it only gets lil pub if its caught on camera..

Fuck the corrupt criminal cops!!!

If thats a tragic accident, then there is no such thing as aggravated assault.

Holy Sh*t that cop totaled that dudes body O.O!

Fuck the police and their "tragic accidents"

I am fed up with the impunity they operate under. If you can't restrain someone for questioning without this kind of brutality, you are UNFIT to be an officer of the law, and there are too many UNFITS in uniform, and too many cover ups from the rest of them.

They are out of control and it needs to stop. Calling it a tragic accident is nothing more than lying to the public, and if people continue to tolerate it, then it isn't going to stop.

Contact your representatives and tell them enough is enough.

That's one of the dumbest headlines yet. Not Ras's fault, it's actually the one from the source piece. It would be a good piece except for that. I wonder what the original title was before this obviously political source blog got ahold of it.

What children? the guy has male pattern baldness for gods sake!
What butchery? The cop wasn't careful and the guy landed in a one in a hundred fashion.

Is there grounds for a civil suit here? Maybe. He did hit the guy too hard. the cop is clearly way too fat and was having trouble stopping. he should have seen the wall. Criminal? No way.

[edit] did some digging
There is also no date mentioned. the trailing banner says sky news, but I'm not finding the video on their site. Doesn't mean it's not there. the link on the blog site has it's host as being infowars.com which is run by this guy. He's an ultra right winger know for his conspiracy stuff.

Police in America need to be reigned in, America is becomming more and more of a military style police state each day. The police(Militart) are out of control.

Don't run from cops. People act like this is some kind of rocket science, why dumbasses get blasted/tased/knocked out/generally fucked up by police. If this guy would have just listened, his ass would still be able to listen.

Until we have police officers that arent FUCKING PIGS!

How long? As long as the USA remains a Police State.

A "tragic accident" my foot, and that was nothing like an arrest, it was a pure brutal act of inadmissible violence and aggression.
