This is why everybody hates cops. Because you can't go a day with out hearing a story about how they are bullies. I hope he gets killed in the line of duty. He is a human waste of tax dollars.

He tells the kid it is illegal to skateboard in the city and county of SF, which is wrong, it is not illegal to skateboard in some parts of the city.
He threatens to break the kids arm. And then when some one not involved points out the cop is being over zealous(for kicking the arrestee in the butt as he puts him in the car), he punishes the other people. Than he tries to play the victim like he is protecting himself.

This is why stuff like that Oscar grant shooting happens, because california cops are simply under educated and out of control. Its why rodney King happend in LA as well as that Ramparts scandal. I swear it seems like half the cops on the force are just as big of thugs as the people they are supposed to remove from the street.

On the sidewalk it is. If he had identified himself he would have gotten a ticket but he was trying to create an incident. I've had more than one incident where these morons came down high rise parking facilities and crashed into cars.

Good for the cop. What a bunch of disrespectful airheads. So sick of the surfer "dude" attitude. Ordinance says that skateboarding not allowed, and these idiots didn't care. He should've thrown them all in jail, including the pesky bystanders. Young, disrespectful kid calls the cop a "dick." What a fool.

More SF pd Gangsters:


YouTube - SF Deputy Sheriff Assaults Working Member of Press


Unprofessional police unable to control a peaceful protest


YouTube - SF Police violence, Cop moves in to arrest 9 year old boy, 032109 Anti War Protest


SF pd serving and protecting

I'm sorry but when I look at videos like this, I don't see a world class police force, I see a mob.

I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to be a cop..anywhere. It doesn't excuse horrible behavior, but we all "lose it" at times,..whether working as a server in a restaurant, being a parent, dealing with a jerk boss, dealing with the public in general, dealing with your spouse! etc.

It happens..it's called being human. He was definitely being a d*ck, but we all have bad days. I don't think looking at other horrible videos of police brutality/abuse of power have anything to do with this particular skateboarding incident and the SFPD in general.

I've been "involved" with them in my youth, and they were quite professional considering the abuse they were taking from the person/s I was with.

I also want to add that you only see the "one off" of bad behavior. Think of how many incidents that are calmed or professionally acted upon that don't get videotaped. Let's just say..I've seen professionalism firsthand by the SFPD on several occasions and never thought of posting it on youtube. (of course this was before youtube!)
