wow this floors me

So the whole James blake thing. Cop is overly aggressive and takes down the wrong guy. He very well could have been shot dead by the cops if he resisted and wasn't smart enough to let them act like idiots.

There's a lesson for you, don't resist no matter how much of an idiot a cop is being, just don't.

Now because of actual video evidence the police can't sweep this incident under the rug. The guy is the luckiest fuck on the planet, I swear, Because someone had a phone and taped the whole thing from start to finish, when and if this goes to court, nobody can bullshit about the actual event. Thank GOD for camera phones. Nobody can get away with shit anymore.

GOOD. I don't have a problem with cops, who does. It's like having a problem with a doctor, they're doing what nobody wants to do, and if they're good docs or cops they're definitely deserving of respect.

But not even a doctor is above reproach or retribution. Not even them. If you don't like a doctor's diagnosis, you have the right to get a second opinion. ETC.

Apparently this isn't how the cops think. Their actions are unquestionable and should be followed like we're all mindless idiots living under a dictatorship.

Hardly... If James Blake was white, imagine how many people would be rallying behind his cause and trying to start a big fight with the police department over police brutality. But ah ha, of course he's a minority so his concerns go nowhere and will end up being nothing more than a puff of smoke.

That's what I'm talking about when I say there's no beating being white. People CARE about your problems.

SO how far is this thing going to go, I wonder. Will it actually get this cop penalized? Or will this whole thing wash over and nothing will happen despite this being clear blatant evidence that cops aren't all angels out there and stuff like this takes place every now and then.

The key is the video. And the fact that he's a father and this cop could have made this situation a fatal one and therefore tear his family apart. To break some kind of bread with the public I think this cop's head is going to roll, absolutely. What he did, is wrong, there's no justifying it. If you don't have PROOF that the guy you're after is the guy you're after, don't just randomly tackle a person minding his own business on the street. You got to be joking with this...

Yeah the cops are saying that you have to be aware of how tough their jobs are, THEN QUIT AND WORK AS A SECURITY GUARD, you asked for it. DON'T COMPLAIN.
