24. Seriously, why can't more DUers be completely apathetic to police brutality like you are?

Always up in arms when cops beat the shit out of or kill innocents. It's like, can't DUers find better things to do than to stop the hastening of the police state? They should just go home and stroke their guns like you.

I will personally escort you to Skid Row to say that to this man, who was beaten by	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#3
The video is lacking in context. What happened for the several minutes before it starts?	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#6

I don't know who you are. I don't know the people who made the video.	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#14
I know the people who recorded the video. LAPD do things like that on a whim	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#17
What is the date the video was taken? What's the name of the man who was beaten? What...	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#20

You can't answer any of my questions.	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#53
You wouldn't even watch the video. You don't deserve even this reply. You want answers,	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#59
You asked "What then does this look like to you?" and I gave you an initial impression	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#62
I'm sure they'd LOVE to hear from you.	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#73
ROFL's? Are you aware that the only thing accomplished here was to undermine your own OP?	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#81
Please read my reply to his first post. That poster has zero credibility in this thread. n/t	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#83
Great. So what. This is not about his credibility, it's about the credibility of that video.	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#86
It is from the LA Community Action Network, or LA CAN. Right-click to back-link to their youtube	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#89

My agenda is to present a clear depiction of police brutality. If you cannot get that from what is	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#120
Then you have FAILED to "present a clear depiction of police brutality."	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#122

As it turns out, the video has been on the Web for nearly seven years.	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#98
I am sure that NOTHING like that goes on today...	Bennyboy	Feb 2013	#118

The first 10 seconds were enough to make it obvious that it doesn't support the OP's narrative	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#51
You didn't watch a damned thing before making your comment.	EOTE	Feb 2013	#57
So what? This is an open discussion. The OP solicited opinions, and I gave my initial reaction.	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#60
You gave your initial reaction before watching the video.	EOTE	Feb 2013	#64
Bullshit	slackmaster	Feb 2013	#65
You already admitted to it. You're not fooling anyone.	EOTE	Feb 2013	#66
I solicited opinions, but opinions based upon actually having watched the video.	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#71
I wacthed the entire thing.	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#88
I wasn't replying to you, I was replying to the resident police apologist who DIDN'T watch the video	EOTE	Feb 2013	#99
Do you know when this was taken?	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#101
About 5 years ago. NT	EOTE	Feb 2013	#102
And do you know wher one might find the beginning of the video that we do not get to see?	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#107
If I did, I would have told you already.	EOTE	Feb 2013	#111
I've looked too, with no luck. I remain skeptical about the claims made by the OP.	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#114
The context is that members of the LAPD are beating the shit out of someone who is not resisting	EOTE	Feb 2013	#116
"cleanippie" is here to shout us down for some unimaginable reason. Don't respond to it. I'm done.	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#121

What does sthat have to do with the fact that this video lacks ANY context at all.	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#80
Why is it so very difficult for people to understand that 16 cops putting a defenseless homeless man	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#92
HOW DOES THE VIEWER KNOW THIS IS A DEFENSLESS HOMELESS MAN?	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#96
Good Lord. YES, the video is from 2008. I thought I'd included that in the OP along with the	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#117
YOU POSTED THIS! WHY DO I NEED TO ASK SOMEONE ELSE ABOUT WHAT YOU POSTED?	cleanhippie	Feb 2013	#119
Because they can answer all of your questions, better than I could?	Fire Walk With Me	Feb 2013	#128
