Local PD or ICE, it don't matter because they are ALL POLICE.
Imagine having body cameras, knowing a civilian is recording, and still having the gall to beat someone down like that? You know why? Because he don't pay for it, the taxpayers will. He will continue getting his pension, time and a 1/2 on holidays, and claim that the person was "resisting" by not falling down flat on the ground (which it seemed like he was trying to tip him over to do but the guy was cooperating).
The taxpayers are not informed of the payouts unless it's a big news story. This is why I think an official letter should be sent to every taxpayer in that city, county, or state, depending on which jurisdiction is responsible for the payout to inform everyone why exactly their tax dollars are being used for a settlement. If they are actually informed them its quite possible they will be less if a bootlicker. Too many people have no clue how bad the police are and have been for the past 50 years
And in the fantasy land, the letter lays out the entire chain of command, from Officer Smith to Sergeant Jones to Police Chief Johnson to Mayor Humdinger and the entire city council. Just to remind people that local PDs do not operate in a power vacuum.
The residents of Fantasy Land would vote appropriately and save their tax dollars. My city had a cop cost us $6m, and the mayor still got reelected, and the chief is still cashing his paychecks. Voters are just clueless, and that will never change. We are now living in Idiocracy.
So we all know the cop will be claiming some euphemistic passive voice nonsense like "he flexed his arms and refused to obey repeated commands, so a kinetic closed-handed compliance technique was applied to gain control," and the usual suspects will try to push that as reasonable... but let's say for the sake of argument that the guy really did, despite complying in every other way, intend to lock his arms to the back of his head and refuse to let him cuff him. We still end up with:
Punching someone in the head is not an effective method to gain compliance. Unless you're some MMA badass, you simply cannot take a punch to the head and still follow commands. You will instinctively go defensive, trying to block, pull away, and/or strike back. Police know this damn well. They do it intentionally, and build this bs into their continuum of force policies just as intentionally, though they'll all deny it, in order to make you "resist," so they can hit you more and add more charges. This criminal thug just failed to do it subtly, and so the man will likely get paid.
It doesn't actually matter for the above, but do we know what the guy was arrested for, and do we know if they tried to stack resisting charges on it for this?
This should be good. Please tell me how the 2nd Amendment should have been used in this situation without the civilian guy being shot 147 times. The floor is yours.
You're thinking too small. I think it comes into play when the people are eventually abused to the point of collectively saying enough is enough.
I don't think the suggestion here is to use the 2nd Amendment for case by case self defense against daily individual abuses of authority. That would be a very foolish strategy.
Keep going. Someone else should be doing WHAT? You’re too afraid to say what you mean, because it immediately falls apart on even casual inspection. You want someone to blow all the cops away. Grow the fuck up. What do you think is going to happen to someone who starts shooting at a bunch of trigger happy cops? I don’t like them either, but I also don’t recommend suicide as an alternative. You do.
Generally speaking, the odds are slim that you'd find yourself in a situation where you can justify unaliving a cop and live to argue it in court. Never mind actually convincing the court. Becoming a martyr is a game of chance, too. There's a severely limited benefit to opposing villains by dying at them. You can do more good above ground than below.
No. You were brave for one post, but far too afraid to say what you meant on follow up. And that’s because in your jackoff fantasy, you think the solution is killing cops. What else do you mean when you bring up 2nd amendment solutions regarding a bunch of cops already beating the shit out of this guy? I don’t blame you for being angry about what happened, but it’s time you acted older than 12. You can’t just kill your way out of problems unless you’re ready to pay the price. And given that you’re way too afraid to even spell out what you obviously meant, of course you’re not going to put anything on the line. So quit acting like a tough guy when you’re afraid of your own goddamned shadow.
Why did that violent thug choose to force his face against that innocent cop's fist? Clearly the defenseless cop had no intention of hurting him, but was forced to protect his fist. /s

Only one of the officers there could pass as possibly decent. And even then, he only stopped his colleague after he had punched the detainee a number of times!

That’s a fat lawsuit
Doesn’t matter, won’t come from their pensions or insurance.
They will get promotions after a taxpayer funded vacation
It matters more because of all that stuff you say after it doesn't matter!

"Just comply" ...when you comply
We've moved on from comply or die. Now it's comply and die.
Probably trying to provoke him so the K9 can “get their bite”
He definitely is. It doesn’t always work out that way though. There’s plenty of times the dog attacks cops since they see them as the aggressor.
Good boys cross the thin blue line
Rodney King
Seems very excessive
What a piece of shit!
Cop found his wife’s boyfriend.
Fire every last one of those incompetent boobs.
And fire their bosses who see this assault and don't take action to prosecute.
Enemies foreign and domestic... wheres the big bad 2A guys at?
Hunting drag-queens reading stories.

The second amendment exists for a reason.
This country and its media are really doing a number rn
You're God damn right.

Someone else should be doing it. He’s obviously incapacitated at the moment.

You do.
The reason he can’t tell you exactly what he wants to say is because Reddit will absolutely ban him if he does. Ask me how I know.
Saying it is an immediate ban, you know this.

Eliminate the piglet threat.
Why are you even downvoted lmao
That guy shouldn’t do anything because his hands are behind his head.
Are you able to answer the question or not?
Yes.

lol. Triggered
Yes, you’re an agitator with a sub 1 year account that’s trying to stir up bullshit. That’s the answer to your question.
Go outside and touch grass
Yeah. Start shooting at cops and see what happens. Public enemy number 1. I'm pro 2a all day but you're delusional.
Not sure why you're being down voted. Shoot at a cop and the rest of the gang will gun you down.
Ego got hurt. Shouldn’t be a cop if yo can’t keep your cool.
Time to GET PAID.
Also, time for cops to start going to prison for that shit.
ACAB
I will never help a cop in need because of scum like them
It's sad that the truth is that most Americans love this and want to see more of it.
Why did that violent thug choose to force his face against that innocent cop's fist? Clearly the defenseless cop had no intention of hurting him, but was forced to protect his fist. /s
Citizens will pay for this. No accountability for these rogues.
I bet the cop was yelling " stop resisting!!!"
JuSt LiStEn
collect your millions buddy..,
This dude just won the lottery
And the knee on the neck.
