My friends, the police - Page 2

Any cop that says a thirteen year old is resisting arrest, and all those other bullshit charges, threatning to mace them ect.. is a coward in my book, and really needs to get laid!

were not all bad. That cop was a fool who prolly got beat up as a kid.
 

 
 

In some cities, it's illegal to skate on a sidewalk (like it's illegal for me to ride my bicycle through the downtown mall.......which they can arrest me for) And these kids were most likely jackasses to begin with (proof of this is on the video when the video zooms in on the cop chasing the second guy. You can hear them laughing.)

With that being said, here is how I feel the whole thing went down.........even before the video started rolling............

Kids are skating down a side walk that is probably signed with "No Skating" signs. (being that it's against city ordinance) These 13, 14, 15 year olds do it anyway. The kid skates past a cop, then the cop yells at the kid to stop, then the kid tries to take off. THEN the cop stops and arrests the FIRST guy for evading police. (THIS is where the video begins). Then to be further jackasses, the other skater takes off running. (evading police/arrest) Then, when the officer is coming back, he sees the group of skater kids and the guy that he just slapped handcuffs on up on his feet (which he should have remained sitting) and walking around. The officer probably thought this guy was going to take off running too, so that would explain why he ran up and grabbed the first guy like he did.

Now, THAT GIRL in the video was told to sit down by the officer. She refuses and RIGHT THEN she is escalating the situation. Then SHE takes off running........which IS resisting arrest. This is the THRID person to run from him during this incident. (I would be extremely pissed right now if I was the cop.)

THEN the guys in the group (the rest of the skaters) come running to her aid (while she is fleeing from the police) yelling at the officer. NOW the officer is feeling extremely threatened and puts most/all of them under arrest.

When you really watch the video and carefully listen to the voices......the officer did NOTHING wrong. The "kids" were most likely taunting and pissing off the cops to being with (before the video started). The video only shows what happened when the officer finally caught up with the first skater. He could have taunted the officer, then started running (which is evading arrest.)

When I first watched the video.......I though the officer was being a little aggressive (because I didn't know what was going on.) But after watching the video a couple more times and paying attention to all the little details, I understand what was happening, and he was doing his job, and the little shit's......sorry......"kids" were acting like big douche-bags and got what they deserved.

This is fun...
Anyways. BS!
That cop could of done a couple things. One- Told them to pick up the board and walk with it. Two- He could of gave them tickets.
I watched it a couple of time too. Yes the kids were being brats. But they are kids. Everyone is like that at that age. Unless you sit at home with mommy watching the Oxygen Channel. If you were riding a bike through a mall and a cop tackled your ass off the bike would that be excessive force? I sure think so. Putting a choke hold on three teenage kids because they are skateboarding and being smart @sses. Excessive force! 

Most cops are on powertrips.  There is worse things they should be controlling than kids skateboarding.

You missed my point entirely.

If you re-read my post, you will find that I wrote that the officer yelled at them to stop. The kid didn't, and ran from the officer. (this is evading the police by the way.) Same thing happens in car chases. Police pulls you over.......you run, you get taken down. Same thing on the streets. If an officer tells you to stop, you stop. If you run, expect to be tacked down.

If I was on my bicycle riding through the downtown mall, and a police officer yelled at me to stop, but I took off, I would expect them to tackle me off my bike.

Now do get my point?

Everyone is mising the real problem.

Two R's...

Respect and Responsibility.

Alot of parents don't teach their kids to respect anything these days...much less some crime wave killing cop with pale legs and a burr haircut.
(If this guy was military...I'd hope he'd have the balls to be on a real beat. Soldiers don;t whine about how "dangerous there job is"...waa waa)

If I were leader of the world...

IMO...the kid's need some...."correcting"...

The cop needs to get in a little golf cart police unit and tend parking meters for about 6 months....at half pay.

I got yours. But you missed mine.
They are kids skateboarding. Telling them to stop and them running is not a big deal. In my opinion them running is his job done well. They are not skating there anoymore. Problem solved. Because they tried to run is a B.S. excuse to to what he did to them.

I say beat 'em up!  Crack some sense into those punks, and then throw away their skateboards.  After that, give 'em a baloney sandwhich and send them on their way.   

I didn't see anyone running.  Personlly if i was going to run from the cops i would RUN not stand around and watch them arrest my friends.   Looked like they were standing around watching to me.  Still don't see a good reason to choke a girl out.  Hell he could have held her at arms length easy.  Besides if you have that big of a problem wouldn't the wiser thing to do would be to call for some assistance.  I think he was pissed because he was a bike cop.  Maybe he will get promoted to  a moped know.  Or one of those sweet harleys the cops love so much.

This is perfect for here.

frst, I think your problem is that you never got your ass kicked like those kids on the video, and I would love to see THAT tape.  Are you really as ignorant as you come across on this forum, or are you just a semi intelligent guy TRYING to look like an idiot??
