LEO is America's largest and most dangerous criminal gang. Videos like this are why I honestly don't give a chit when a cop gets hurt or killed.


I guess being a noob you might just be a troll or trying to be provocative.

I'd also point out that while you might feel comfortable typing your post in a controlled environment, those cops were potentially in danger.
So while that alone does not justify them exceeding their training or authority to keep the peace, the crowd needed to back away to reduce the tension, and make everyone feel safer. Had that happened, this incident likely would never have occurred.

Also if you really feel that way about police, I assume you will not be calling them when you are in need of help, correct?

I'd prefer my tax money not be spent this way.

What video are you looking at, the one in the OP? If you are, go look at the 11-12 second mark, that cops right knee is clearly on the ground...period....

Very clearly is.


You do understand we are talking about the 11-12 second mark, not the 1-2 second mark?


Please tell us, what second of the extremely short video are you talking about?

Yes it is, the video posted by the OP is 1 minute and 24 seconds. This is why I asked you to look at the "11-12 second mark" of the 1 minute and 24 seconds of the video.....you do understand that, yes? During the 11-12 second mark, the cops right knee is very clearly on the ground......period.

Remember waay back when. The cops around town walking a beat, carried a night stick, and would wack you over the head to straighten your azz out. That seemed to work just fine. No "accidental " shootings, just put a knot on your head and sent you on your way.

The video in the link shows him kneel on the kid after the other guy jumps on him at 11-12. He's still standing when the other guy jumps on him.
