Closed fist to the face, Really,arrest the cop,white lives matter.
ReplyDeleteWhy hit the guy in the face,is that taught in the MSP Academy? .
ReplyDeleteNot knowing what happened before the video and why the perp was running other than the one cop being exuberant with his face punches I don't see anything wrong with this take down. If once he had been taken down he had quit resisting then they could have cuffed him without any problem. Once again it would also help to know why the police were chasing him.
ReplyDeleteI am pro cop but when the peep is down there are other ways to subdue him a Closed fist to the face is not taught in the academy and seems for personal than anything the so called trooper was way out of line and needs no be Fired.
DeleteThe guy was resisting arrest the police are completely justified and have the right to return home to their families every day.
ReplyDeleteFist in the face is NOT justified.
DeleteYour what is wrong with America today! Fist to the face was 100% justified. The guy was clearly resisting.
DeleteWalking around smashing faces is not going to make cops any safer. He has actually made the job more dangerous for every other cop out there by doing this. That is why the good ones need to speak up, just like they ask us to do.
Delete11:13AM, Agreed. We don't see what went on before this perpetrator entered the lobby; therefore, it's difficult to surmise if this is police brutality or a reaction to something prior. One thing people should remember is, when a person is on certain illegal substances, their strength can be 10X what it is normally. I've seen police officers literally beaten to a pulp by a person on LSD. So we have no idea about this incident as clearly we're coming in the middle of it.
ReplyDeleteWhile police abuse is deplorable, we must not rush to judgment every time one of these video snippets is plaster on the internet. Not only is the perpetrator's preceding actions important, also the officers' precedence must be considered as well.
Also watch the guys right hand in the video. It looks like he is trying to get something out of his right pocket. It is possible he had a weapon in there and was trying to get it out. So totally justified to subdue him and get him in handcuffs as quickly as possible.
ReplyDeleteHe was actively resisting while being punched.. Once cuffed, no more force. Justifiable, cop block is joke, even to those who don't necessarily agree with cops..
ReplyDeleteI was not aware the repeated punches to the face were part of their training of how to subdue a perp. Its abuse in my eyes.
ReplyDeleteThe simple answer is to comply with requests/orders from law enforcement. Those who are injured or killed are refusing to follow lawful commands, resisting arrest, threatening violence or running. Why do those who thumb their noses at law and order get sympathy and LEOs are always wrong? I'm not saying LEOs are right 100% of the time, but MANY times in these videos, they are reacting to someone who is being non-compliant. It is those who think they don't have to obey the laws or have no respect for authority that end up in these positions. Lack of respect for authority starts in school and continues through life for a lot of these people. It is a societal problem more than a law enforcement one in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteDon't comply get punched in the face? That is not protocol.
DeleteIn China the law is 2 children. Would you be so willing to comply with the law if they came to take your 3rd child? After all it is the law, you should comply.
DeleteOne has to wonder if maybe a lot of these resisting arrests are as a result of government officials making derogatory statements to the public whenever an officer shoots a perpetrator. It seems that brutality charges have become more and more present in our media outlets and on YouTube organizations such as Copblockers.org.
ReplyDeleteYes, there are officers that abuse their power, just like in any other industry where there is power but every officer cannot be abusing their power. Usually there's one or two bad apples, by statistic reasoning; however, if a person is resisting or evading arrest, they do have the power to exert necessary force to subdue a person until they submit. If they didn't, we would have a lawless society with people running around doing anything they want with no fear of repercussion.
We have laws, people! And one of them is, when an officer is arresting you, don't resist. Simple. Furthermore, just for the record, I've never seen a perpetrator who was not guilty of some wrong doing, resisting arrest. Usually those resisting are trying not to get caught for doing something illegal. An innocent person would get arrested and then give their statement, hire a lawyer and go to trial - not runaway or take three officers (actually 5 if you count the local officers in the video) to subdue them.
the way they mauled him...and obscured the camera ..they could have planted anything on this guy...for all we know he could be after a girl one of them wanted for himself... I don't believe anything a cop says when they take license to inflict pain ..
ReplyDeleteThe police are allowed to use what ever force necessary until the threat is over.
ReplyDeleteDid you see the old woman in the elevator? She didn't waste any time going back to where she came from.
ReplyDeleteYou are right, Copblock dot org is a cop hating web page and it's a joke.

They did what they had to do to subdue the guy and it worked. The officers went home safe.
Bs I bet you would change your tune if it was your brother, son,father? Hypocrite.
DeleteArrest the trooper now.
DeleteMSP frustrated wannabe cops.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, I know plenty of good cops, none of them are Staties. They will lie to pull you over in West Ocean City. They did it to me and when he realized I wasn't drinking he rushed to leave and find another victim.
DeleteI watched one come through the 50+611 intersection at what had to be nearly 100 mph, no flashers. He nailed a guy who made a u-turn (not realizing he didn't have time with the speed the trooper was moving). Locked him up for DUI in an accident that was caused by the trooper. I'm sure he had to pay for the troopers vehicle and civil suit as well.
Who was the old man they all ignored?
ReplyDeleteBullies! Didn't need to punch him.
ReplyDeleteNone of my people would resist an arrest. They know better.
ReplyDeleteso all you kop lovers think it's ok to use excessive force no matter the circumstances. all that has to be thought is I'm in danger so I can do anything I want or need to? that's total BS. Saw one poster on youtube mentioned how this ahole is badder then the marines. Don't think so. if the kop had been a former marine he would have been much more disciplined. If he's that scared maybe he ought to find another job. wait until this ahole does this to your son or daughter! way over the line and should be fired! Hope the perp brings charges against MSP for allowing this thug to be employed by them. wonder how many citizen complaints have been logged against him. bet he would piss himself in a dark alley with no help no badge and no gun! f'n loser! where's our citizen review board? oh that's right we don't have one! demand one before you or your loved ones get shot and killed for not complying with their so called lawful orders!
ReplyDeleteCriminals like 6:31 believe they should be untouchable and treating like frail little fairies after trying to assault the police. It's just how society is right now, kids aren't be raised with any responsibility your parents have done you an injustice YOU are not special you are a loser.
ReplyDeleteWow, so what is the back story? Guessing not jaywalking. Clearly that guy didn't something terrible. Don't ever mess with MSP.
ReplyDeletehe was speeding and wouldn't stop. a chase led them to this place. he was bummed rushed, punched in the face, piled on, BEFORE they found heroin and a knife on him.
ReplyDeleteoverreaction no matter how you slice it
Sorry they all did well except the Trooper that popped him in the head multiple times. The guy clearly has some metallic in his hand not sure what it was. Head blows are never needed unless it is life and death. The Trooper will taking a beating on this one no pun intended. Looks like he is a slick sleeve my guess he will be looking for work he let his emotions get the best of him. Oh well glad the punk got a beat down. Sick of these dopers and thugs ruining our way of life. Was not the right thing to do but I am still glad he got it.
