But there was clearly no beating, brutality, and racial terror involved here by these cops. The guy did have a knife, still wasn't shot so another example of police restraint here. Even picked him up nicely vs one guy grabs hands other grabs legs...slam his head in the truck and toss him in. He was handled very respectfully. No criminal charges in this case I don't think.

You must be the sorriest excuse for a human being. Police restraint? They severed his spine with a baton. Cops have become nothing more than boorish thugs, beating and shooting people every day all over this country with absolutely no need to. Sadly, it only seems to make the news when there's a racial element to it, but EVERYONE is getting killed by these scum. Whether it is Douglas Zerby or Sal Culosi, or any of the THOUSANDS of citizens brutalized by these uniformed filth. This doesn't even include all the money confiscation (theft) they are getting away with by scaring innocent citizens who don't know any better, or the people dying when their loved ones are speeding to get them to a hospital, only to get pulled over by some mid 20's trooper with the IQ of a waffle who instead of escorting them to the emergency room (as police would have done 20 yrs ago), they now make them sit in the car and wait (sadly, an asthmatic died in this very same way not too long ago). And unless the video tape is so damning (like when trooper Sean Groubert got arrested for shooting someone with no cause), the police and the DA's protect their own, even when the cop is clearly unfit for his profession.


Having dealt personally with sleazy cops, and being lucky enough to have had the satisfaction of embarrassing them in open court and beating every bogus charge they wanted to conjur up, I know that this new generation of troopers is just like many of the new generation of other citizens, cluelessly obedient, no free thinking skills, and emotionally on par with that of an 8th grader.
