And before any of you say anything, I have been thrown down
stairs
in
cuffs by a piece of **** pig just like this..
This fat fu**er needs to be put down like the rabid animal he
is...
The only ones in the video that did the right thing were the kids
that kept
their mouths shut. The cop shouldn't have gotten physical. The
kid
shouldn't
have mouthed off to the cop. It would have played out much
differently if
the kid showed respect for authority, even if feigned.
What? A person isn't allowed to voice their concerns over the cops
actions?
Oh, contraire!
The vid is on Youtube, and no doubt the cop probably got fired or
suspended and maybe even sued. The kid voiced his opinion and won.
i suppose my point is, that the situation was unnecessary and could
easily have been avoided. The kid probably didn't know btter, and
the
cop should have known better.
bad deal all around.
The cop got suspended WITH PAY. I would expect a lawsuit soon. NO
matter how disrespectful the kid was the cop acted like a bigger
child
than the kid.
Would you apportion the blame for this incident all on the cop or
does
it
need to be spread around a little?
The kid should be cited for and if he broke a law, calling a cop
"Dude"
is
not illegal. The cop should be held 100% responsible for his abuse of
power, totally losing control of his emotions and throwing down the
kid
without any reason.
That's not what I asked. Sure, the cop should be held accountable for
his
actions which were a bit over reactive. The little urchin needs to be
educated on becoming a responsible member of society. His training
should
have started 12 years ago.- Hide quoted text -

Get real, what did the kid do? Call the cop "dude" while the cop was
threatening him? I hope you did not raise your kids to bully someone
and then beat them for not running scared...

A little Yes sir, No sir, I'm sorry sir would have diffused that
situation
real quick.

You are dilusional.. when a cop decides to be a bully, nothing stops
him. Hell, that statey I talked about before told me once he did not
like me "because I had mispronounced his name a few years earlier",
which I had, quite innocently. He never treated me with respect, even
though his peers who all knew, and mostly liked me did... I did a lot
of work for the Ambulance crew and other public service orgs there, he
was just an ass no matter how respectful you tried to be..

An attitude has a negative effect when dealing with cops. I am
sure you have learned that lesson by now.-

I have learned actually that it really makes little difference, most
times they have decided how they are going to act before you even
talk...

*F*ck* authority. Cops are public servants, paid for by public tax
dollars. If they cannot behave reasonably, they should be tossed off the
police force.

That attitude gets you exactly what the 12 year old skateboarder got.

Why screw with cops. *A bad cop can set you up and it may end up being your
word against his in court...........guess who wins.

A little respect goes a long way.- Hide quoted text -

Yeah, we should all act like low life cowards and bow to them every
time we come in contact with them.

There is nothing wrong with being respectful to a cop. Common courtesy
should be extended to anyone you meet.
