Yeah…. Let's keep recording and reporting the police state. I don't see any other body stepping in response to this horrible police state.

Fucking despicable police state we have brewing here.

You can't see the danger those poor cops are in?

No - really - the one flailing away with his baton..... whatcha wanna bet his wife said "Not tonight dear." ? Or maybe his teenage son sassed him back at dinner the night before. Or maybe he can't get a raise because the GOP-minded folks that control his recompense can't find a few bucks more cause of their shining resistance to raising revenue. And then we'd have him HOLD IN those frustrations with this convenient punching bag of misfortune lying on the ground in front of him??? Nah!

There was no need to beat him like that....unless you are sadistic prick.

This is the face of the police state. Coming to your comfortable living room soon.

Mother of God!!!

What? What is going on with our police officers??

It's time to stop talking about how awful it all is and start demanding answers...

Where are many of our PDs receiving their training? Is it somewhere one might consider a war zone? C'mon guys, it's part of the discussion.

Further, LEO use/abuse of steroids should be investigated and its full impact brought into the public view.

And BTW - Our local university Psychiatric Emergency Services used to have a Mobile Crisis Team, composed of clinical social workers, who accompanied police whenever a call likely entailed a mental health issue.

I guess in our NWO there's no longer room for that. As the OP said, Just beat the fuck out of them.

Christ almighty!!! As a country, we're done!

Police departments actively recruit people like this. They consider them go-getters, motivated and aggressive to get the job done.
They are going to show that scum who runs this city!

when hiring police in almost every municipality. They are tested, and if they are not able to separate themselves from this natural human emotion, they are eliminated as possible candidates for the job.
