oh? how so ?

what facts exactly do i have to get right ?

 

Tpup, are you blind? The guy is pressed firmly against the ground and the cop strikes him twice....to which the dude calmly says "please dont strike me when Im not resisting" then the cop responds with a screaching vulgarity laced tirade. That is bull$hit. The cops should be professsionals and know how to handle a situation without sinking to the level of the idiots they put in prison.

If the guy was drinking and driving, fine...pull him over, put him on the ground and throw him in jail....but that display was an embarassment for all good cops and the city of Milwaukee. I bet this dude would have been barely looked at had he been in a toyota avalon.

 

Look I'm not going to argue with you. Go find and read the facts leading up to the video. Driving drunk, lights off, ran a stop, would not stop when the cops turned on the lights behind him, would not get out of the car when told to... Point is there is a lot more to it than the video.

I agree the cop should have been more professional.
I agree that he will more than likely get some money out of the deal.

I just have a problem with the rush to judgement based on a video that shows 10% of what happened. I also have no patience for idiots that ignore the direction of police and then complain when bad things happen.

I totally disagree with any assertion that it would not happen in a lesser car. That's a busy part of town and the cops arrest drunk drivers every night there.

I also totally disagree that it's jealousy based on the car. I have owned a Lambo, multiple Ferraris, Porsches, Lotuses and some others. I have found that cops reactions are directly related to mine. If I am honest and respectful I get treated that way. If I'm an jerk then they are. I've been pulled over many many times. No problem.

We just can agree to disagree on this one gentlemen.

 

Dude, it really doesn't ****!ng matter what happened BEFORE the video started. The guy is face down, hands behind his back, (possibly cuffed already) and not in ANY way resisting arrest at that point.

 

Actually according to the cop, and two reviews reported in the paper so far have backed the cops version (One by the Chief and one by an independent board), the guy had his hands under his body and would not put them behind his back to be cuffed.

 

Oh... Well then of course we must believe them. I mean cops wouldn't just cover for eachother now, would they....

 

This is ridiculous.

 

Cop= Can't Offer Protection, Can Offer Punches

 

Very excessive, with the pay day he will get out of this he might be able to buy his own lambo if he wants.

Cop will not be fired though, especially based on how the people above him are defending him already. He may get a short suspension......with pay of course

 

Crazy!

 

Tpup - I think you are watching a different video than everyone else....or perhaps one of your boys was the ***** *** cop thumping someone when he was face down????. What goes around, comes around with these power trip ******bags with a badge. I am in no way shape or form a cop hater but these azzholes need to get the **** kicked out of them once to see for themselves what it feels like. Yes, this guy was breaking the law and deserves the punishment that comes along with it......but nobody doing what that guy did deserves to be struck in the head while defenseless. Doesn't matter what happened beforehand. Period. End of story.

 

+ 100 This ... its surprising to me why cops everywhere act like this...no matter where you go....

I was really surprised a few days ago when I heard there were a few cops who barricaded a fleet of sports cars on the NJTP and that became a news too...lol
