that reminds me of one of my friends in tx. he was 15 and really skinny/lanky... his father lost control of him one day and called the cops over. another friend and i showed up first and when the cop showed up he got physical with my friend ryan and ryan knocked him out cold with one lick.... the cop was snoring.

the look on his dad's face was f'ing priceless. he def. got arrested later on, but it was one of the most bizzare things I had seen up to that point.

Wow. I give that kid props just for taking the heat for what he believed in. Like I said, at 14-15, F-it, that cop is probably eating concrete if he did that shiz to me.

I agree that this cop went way too far when he got physical with the kid.Maybe the kid deserved to be yelled at but taking the kid to the ground was where he crossed the line.To be honest when I watched the video I thought the cop didnt even tell the kid to sit down until he was already halfway down to the ground.As if the cop was only trying to take the skateboard but then stumbled and realized he was going down and started to say sit down to cover his ass.

I would also like to add that police officers have to be in complete control of every situation.Unfurtunatly some officers feel that they have to act like dicks to do this.The truth is that anyone could be armed and dangerous and you just cant afford to let your gaurd down.So while I dont like it at all when I encounter an officer like this I kind of understand why they are like that.

Wow...simply wow...what are kids these days being taught?

Sure he had no right to get physical, but you think the answer would be "start swinging". Damn...I am getting scared as to the direction of this country.
Please tell me there are SANE people out there???

Since this thread has been bumped anyways I'd like to share that the direction of the country went wrong before this when cops went from "serve and protect" to "patrol and control"

I have friends that are in law enforcement as well.. from a county sheriff, to several beat cops, sergeants, etc.. all of them are nice as well, well all but one, he's a complete dickhead (I guess he's not really a friend)

The 7 cops you know and bbq with are your friends, of course they're nice to you, you haven't seen every ride they've been on.. and maybe they're like that out in the field too.. but there are more than 7 LEO's in this country

It's a stressful job but if you can't put up with it, then quit.. any other job where you do something like this you're out, a cop should have to find his own way after something like that as well

Who is a cop to tell me whether to sit down or remain standing so that he can yell at me? That's ridiculous... and he had no reason to even touch the kid.. if the kid did so much as put his hand to the guy to back him away it's "assault"

What happened to police not being above the law? What an apologist you are.. it's this complacency with the steady decline we have in giving up our freedoms and even comfort that's an issue with this nation, not some kid saying dude

This is a good tool for listening to people talk about the police, if you have ever been arrested and you have something bad to say about the police, you should be ignored. 99 times out of 100, it's your fault, and you escalated the situation with your mouth.

that's completely ignorant. Ive been arrested and had my life threatened by police who had a grudge against me for sleeping with a married cop's girlfriend. I've been arrested and assaulted for not having a vin plate on a truck i bought. I didn't remove it, and the charge was thrown out. As it turns out that cop (in a different state than the aforementioned, mind you) was called over because he was dating our neighbor who was a hooter's waitress that we had thrown out of a party for acting like a complete cunt the week before. It took him over 2 hours of detaining me with no reason (his original claim was that my truck had no vaild inspection sticker, which was true, but since it wasn't on a public road I wasn't in violation) to finally find something to charge me with.

cops are people of various character, just like in any other walk of life, no matter who they beat or who they barbeque with. some are attracted to the job to truly help people and that's great. some like to carry guns and sticks and feel empowered. the people who are drawn to that aspect of the job should be weeded out, but then who else are we gonna get to deal with the crack heads, and murderers and rapists... petty theives and arsonists, etc....

I got slammed to the pavement as an 18 year old for minor in possession of alcohol.. this is after I came out of the car with my hands on it, after a patdown and no resistance

either way I don't hold that against every police officer as I've probably had more nice officers than dickheads.. it's the cops that think because someone isn't apologizing and crying that decide that they need to escalate the situation that are the issue... if they can talk with disrespect so can I, luckily I don't have to do that often at all.. mostly the young cocky guys

my roommates got busted for pot a couple months back and there was some young guy trying to crack jokes and being extremely accusatory and rude, I came home in the middle of it and it was absolutely disgusting.. I spoke with one of the quiet respectful officers and mr 25 year old tactical unit was removed from the residence

not to take up for my roommates, they're the reason that I'm moving out

oh and my basis for calling that statement ignorant is that the people who are arrested have first hand knowledge of the situation. I'd venture that false arrests make up much more than 1% of all arrests and I fail to read any laws saying I cannot "use my mouth" when I'm being forcefully detained without explanation.

I find it peculiar coming from you, a person who believes so strongly in the 2nd amendment, since that amendment was based on the notion that the govt shouldn't be able to completely overpower the population, as that is the first step down a road that leads away from democracy.

BIG difference between being arrested, and being detained.

I was arrested in both instances and beat the charges in court without an attorney both times.

The guy who accused me of assault in the 9th grade didnt even show up to the court date. I got a day out of school for it

it's funny how they won't give up their guns but they'll gladly give up the 4th amendment among others..

There is no law that states kids must treat cops with respect. Ideally they do, and I think usually they do, but if they don't or if a police officer doesn't believe that they have the cop still doesn't have a right to exercise any punitive action other than that commensurate with the crime that has been committed. A good cop tries to diffuse a situation. A bad one creates a situation. This here is a very bad cop.

One of my boys from high school is a cop and a damn good one. I know some other cops too who are great people as well. But that doesn't change the fact that there are a lot of scumbags out there dishonoring the badge, or worse, thinking it makes them above the law.

[Sheriff Gonna Getcha]

That dude should be fired. Anyone with that kind of temper who apparently routinely unlawfully threatens the public that he is charged with "serving" doesn't deserve to wear a uniform. He should have to turn in his badge and be stripped of any benefits etc.
