Yet another police beating

[GarfieldtheCat]

Looks like the NYPD are back to normal. At least they didn't choke him to death though.

Guy isn't doing anything, hands raised away from body, not moving at all when a 2nd cop comes in at starts beating him for no reason.

Another couple of bad apples I guess. Of course, the cops lied and said he was "flailing his arms and resisting arrest". Anyone see that on the tape? Lucky for the innocent man there was video footage. But cops never lie right?

We will see if the cops get charged with anything, or get away with criminal activity yet again (as they usually do).

He didnt comply with their lawful order to shut the fuck up. Clearly he was also resisting arrest when putting his hands behind his back. Just a few bad apples.

Regretfully, there is no audio.

Yup because if he said some mean things to those cops then it would justify that beat down.

No, but if you are resisting arrest it does.

Do we know if he was or not?


edit: Watched the video, for some reason I had to disable my adblock for it. Yep, looks like a beatdown for no reason - though we do have no idea what was said, given this incident had to do with a robbery.

However, make sure to note: The officer doing the initial beating is black. Be sure to notate that, because as you know, it's white superiority that is usually grounds for beating black people. As you can see, all police officers like beating people equally.

Such as possibly threatening the cops.

You can see from the video that he was talking to the first LEO.

Was something said that triggered the second LEO to intervene?

Who knows. :whiste:

You are completely wrong, it is the uniform and the license that goes with it.

Also, the article shows this had to do with robbing a store (Albeit, for a fucking couple slices of pizza), but according to the story they threatened the clerk with a switchblade. Who had the switchblade? The officers don't know.

What could possibly have been said that would merit several hits with a baton when the suspect's hands were up?

Not you, you may go into a homocidal frenzy over the spoken word, cops are not allowed to.

 

[xBiffx]

This guy has the worst luck. Two beatings by cops in two years. Must suck to be him.

Wonder how many slices of pizza he gets for free between beat downs?

And without audio; we have no idea.

Something may have been said to trigger; some type of threat; who knows.

He did not seem to be fully cooperating with the first LEO based on the actions of the first one.

Having to continually poke/talk at him and keeping the left arm cocked with an object

Always interesting to see the lengths some people around here will go to excuse criminal behavior from the cops.

Until people like you start insisting on police following the law, and not breaking it, we will never have any significant changes.

Unless you like cops beating people for no reason?

For some reason with these people it's always the citizens who must submit. Do everything the cop says. Be polite. Provide whatever information they want. Stand perfectly still, unless instructed to do otherwise and then do exactly what they say with no delay.

Why don't cops have to abide by any rules?

You claim there is no reason.

I prefer to have all information for review before rushing to judgement.

 

[Darwin333]

Damn, notice how the first cop who obviously didn't find it necessary to use violent force all of a sudden decided it was after the other cop started beating him. Then after he willingly put his other hand behind his back they continue beating him for some reason.

The left arm "cocked" with an object??? What video are you watching, it sure as hell looks like he is holding his hands up in plain view of the officers which is usually what they want you to do. But now even if we put our hands up we are "cocking" them in preparation to fight with the police?

Fuck me running we just can't win. Frankly if we are going to get beaten and arrested for assaulting the police regardless if we actually do or not we might as well start getting some licks in.

 

[Darwin333]

Well it obviously wasn't in his hands at the time he caught the beat down nor were his hands anywhere near his pockets nor did he make any sort of move that would make any reasonable person think he was reaching for it.

Left hand of the officer; not the suspect.

Something in the suspects amnner is causing some concern

We will certainly never get an honest answer from the police.

Yet he isn't the one to decide to result to physical violence even though he is the closest and therefore in the most "danger". Even when he does eventually join his buddy in beating the guy you can tell he is only doing it half heatedly. Almost looks like he was just going along with it.

 

[cabri]

We will certainly never get an honest answer from the police.

And many do not want any answer.

As long as the police are involved. They are considered to be in the wrong.

We have seen it here over the years.

Some act as if they prefer no law and order.
Inversely they want/demand protection anyhow against criminal element.

NIMBY in reverse

It is hilarious that the OP still clings to him dying by choking, when it was proven he wasn't. Just like it is hilarious that the "victim" of this has his hands up in the "hands up don't shoot" pose, that has been proven to be false.

Cop shot dead yesterday at traffic stop? No post. White male killed in much the same way as Gray (hands behind the back and died)? No post.

I can see some bad apples alright, right here posting agenda driven topics.


When you make claims of fact otherwise unsubstantiated on this forum, like the two I bolded, provide links please.

What was "proven" was that the chokehold was the cause of death.

A medical examiner ruled Friday that a police officer's chokehold caused the death of a man whose videotaped arrest and final pleas of "I can't breathe!" sparked outrage and led to the overhaul of use-of-force training for the nation's largest police department.

Eric Garner, a black man whose confrontation with a white police officer has prompted calls by the Rev. Al Sharpton for federal prosecution, was killed by neck compressions from the chokehold and "the compression of his chest and prone positioning during physical restraint by police," city medical examiner spokeswoman Julie Bolcer said.

Asthma, heart disease and obesity were contributing factors in the death of the 43-year-old Garner, a 6-foot-3, 350-pound father of six, she said.
