General Discussion

EDIT: video was removed, posting a new one

Police have been turning alleged criminals into millionaires since 1991. How will this end?

4 officers fired, 3 disciplined or demoted. More charges may come in the future.

If there were no video of this incident these scumbags would have gotten off scott-free...as thousands of police thugs have in the past!

On the other hand, if they would've used tazers and pepper spray they could have tortured these guys all night long and noone would have said a word about it!

Putting a bad name for cops everywhere.

/sigh

Welcome to America.

Land of the greed.  Home of the slave.

awesome beating. saw a brief clip of it last night.

any racial charges? mixed races doing the beating? charges of racism are all dependent on the circumstances. them cops dont, didnt care the color. but, if they happen to have been exclusively white cops and the perps were black- assumptions would have been made. circumstances, not racism. got it? good.

talking outta my ass again.

nothing to see here, move along.

I noticed the subtitle, "chips, dips, chains, and whips".

So, how is Age of Conan?

Exactly. You'd think by now cops would know that everything is being taped. I mean a chopper was circling the area with a damn spotlight on them. When those tasked to protect and serve let their emotions dictate a scene, we are in trouble. I think the most troubling thing is the amount of cops involved. There seemed to be nobody around that didn't join in. I'm as sure that these cops were provoked as I am that these alleged criminals each have a rap sheet the length of my arm. Unfortunately, I'm also pretty sure that tax dollars will be buying them H4s when they get out of prison.

I have mixed feelings about tazers. I think they can be a great tool to prevent the escalation of violence, but they are placed into hands that don't always use the best judgement (like campus security and rent-a-cops). I must admit though, I really enjoy watching tazer videos. I think this ( explicit language ) is my favorite.

POTBS was not my type of game and a bit too difficult for my son...the open seas part.

AOC is very good but the im not liking having to do the first 20 levels again with each character i create. nipples and gore make up for that drag though.

I just understand what is up with the frikkin gun crime in the US...
