It is just some information I find interesting. If you are not interested in that, you can just move on. I like to study where people are from. That's it.
If you had read past the first two sentences of my post you'd have gotten to the part where I said there was no need for the use of physical force and the cops should have stayed under control.
I read all of you post. I specifically reacted to the part of your post which said, "The cops were pumped and pissed after the chase. Can't blame them for that."
Yes, we can blame them for that. I want police officers who methodically conduct themselves at the highest standard of behavior as they do their job.
I doubt there is anything in their job description which recommends being "pumped and pissed". Being "pumped and pissed" is exactly what leads to inappropriate police behavior.
well, When you resist arrest sometimes you hurt yourself and the officer as well. In this particular case, this criminal put a lot of people's lives in danger. Somehow, the police officers are the bad guys? Doesn't seem fair.
Okay, maybe you need to go back to watching Roy Rogers movies from the 1940s. You know, where the good guys wore white hats and the bad guys wore black hats, and there were no gray hats.
That's not the way life is. Like you. I don't know you, but I know you are not white like the pure driven snow. All people have good and bad in them at varying degrees. All situations are not purely white or black. One person or group doesn't behave all white or all black.

I agree with and admire your life philosophy. But your philosophy has nothing to do with this topic.
This topic is "is there excessive force involved" In my OPINION, no there is not. But lucky for the world, I don't make all the rules and decisions. That is why police officers are under investigation. No more No less.
Everybody is innocent until proven guilty, this applies to the police officers as well. Plain and simple.
by the way, I said, ".... doesn't seem fair" I didn't imply these officers are the pure driven snow. LOL
You see...there you go again. No one is excusing the perp.
I was responding to the poster who said, "i want to see these cops in prison." They are only under investigation. Pretty UNFAIR to judge these police officers when they are ONLY under investigation.
In practice the presumption of innocence is animated by the requirement that the government prove the charges against the defendant Beyond a Reasonable Doubt.
