As fucked up as it is...this little angel robbed someone, and had he not he would not have caught such an as whippin. Whatever lesson could have been learned...wont be because the perpetrator is now made the victim.
The lesson is clearly there. None of them have the ability to understand that you don't get to choose which laws to abide by without consequence. The boy robbed and the police officers assaulted. Both are crimes but guess who will get off easier. The cops! despite them knowing assault is illegal.
I don't know what country you're from...but, in America 5-0 aren't in the business of acting as judge, jury & executioner. Their job is to apprehend & detain the suspect, and then let the legal system do its job. If I were him...there would be big-time litigation coming down the track in H-Town, fo' real. The Kid Rasta
Agreed. He had in hands behind his head right away. I don't see why they felt the need to beat his azz.
I agree. Yes, the kid messed up, BUT he didn't have that shit coming. Those are the type of cops that make people hate, disrespect fear law enforcement. Those mfs think they're above the law because they have a frigging' badge. He layed his ass down & put his hands behind his head & didn't do shit to bring that ass kicking from a bunch of power-tripping, bitch-ass sorry excuses for cops upon himself. My little brother got stopped a couple of years ago by some our local bitches. He was pulled over by two officers, & shortly thereafter two more showed up. They told him he had a taillight out & asked him to get out & escorted him to the back of his vehicle to "show him". He found the taillight to be fine, & they told him they were taking him to jail. When he asked why they really stopped him, they proceeded to beat the shit out of him. They hurt him so badly, they had to take him to the hospital. He had numerous abrasions, lacerations, road rash from being stomped on in the street & a collapsed lung. They basically dumped him at the hospital & took off. Thankfully he had witnesses who were with him in his vehicle, because the officers later claimed they had to use force because he was "resisting arrest", and they were able to tell everyone what really happened. I don't know why the hell I'm rambling...it's not like anyone gives a fuck. lol
Don't compare it to the Rodney King incident until the black people in Houston do the same thing we did in Los Angeles to get some reform in local law enforcement. [HDYT]W17xTbRsm30[/HDYT]
That is shocking. :smt011 And I'm sorry to hear about your brother, Tam. Makes you wonder just how often things like this happen and never get caught on video....
Thanks, Whiks. It's too bad it wasn't on video. He was so freaked out & scared, he left town for a while. I'd have called the media & anyone else I could think of, & made a big stink over it. Of course, not much happened to the officers...it's my understanding, they got a 5 day suspension with pay. My brother also had to hire a lawyer to get the resisting arrest charge thrown out.
the need was that they wasnt getting any pussy this past week you are not rambling. I can go on for days about the pigs and the justice system. I would love to turn in em into bacon
