What police are capable of today is abhorently disgusting! The average, ordinary citizen has no chance against jackbooted authorities such as those that incarcerated a man that needed both physical and mental health help.
In a way, we all share a small part of the blame for what was done to Nick Christie. And we'll keep on sharing blame for those that may experience this abuse in the future if we do not put a stop to this kind of attitude to continue with those we think are protecting and serving us, when in actuality, they're our worst enemies. Worse because they are the real homegrown terrorists we imagine that's just around the next "fear corner"!

This video was disturbing. He was already in a restraining chair. I can just think they were evil cops to keep spraying him with pepper spray. When it was ruled homicide Florida declined to press charges. They got away with murder.

"They got away with murder." They sure did. The scary part is....this can happen to anyone at anytime and you don't even have to be committing a crime for them to target you.

Welcome to America, tough love. I would like to hear Rick Perry on this one. "The crazy jerk got what he deserved"?
This is what you voted for cops and officials who are "willing to take of the gloves."
Thank your Mr. Cheney Thank you Mr. Bauer for keeping us safe....

Normally I don't support the death penalty at all, but the cops who did this deserve it.

Why am I all of a sudden sick to my stomach? I knew this was coming. I guess I just didn't expect it be so blunt and all of a sudden without giving a damn who found out about it!

If your a country whose authorities torture people, then your a country whose authorities torture people. Don't be surprised when your authorities start torturing witnesses right in the courtroom.

You have to know that these brainless Neanderthals did this for sport. I can just hear them. "Here, let me spray him now". "Do you think we can kill a guy with this stuff"? "Look, it's just dripping of him". "Don't get to close to him, you wouldn't want to breath any of this stuff in. It can be really damaging". "The District Attorney could not care less what we do to people, so carry on". "What do you mean stop? What are you? Some kind of Liberal pussy"? "Hey, lets start a pool on how long it takes him to die". You folks in the States have got some real problems on your hands.

That's right. Their affiliates have to get by in the real world. No rampant lying allowed. I wonder what Fox News viewers think of the stark difference between Fox News reporting and the reporting they see on Fox affiliates.

The video was shocking Buckeye. It appeared to me that the women was trying to walk away when the police hit her. Internal Affairs will investigate.I hope they were taken off duty durning the investigation. It seems like when they put the uniform on they feel they can abuse people.I know it is not all policemen but you see a lot of videos with police abusing people.

What compounded this situation is the police threatened to arrest the person that was recording this abuse!
The police are aware that these videos are becoming far more prevalent in showng how they overstep their authority by physically assaulting us and they don't appreciate it being known how they interact with the public!
Goons is the word that pops into my mind.
And that is exactly what they are!
