Came across this video and was amazed at the response from the crowd. I guess they didnt think that jabbing the guy with a night stick was appropriate. Its an old vid from 2011, but I just saw it.

that was crazy man..
Tryin to follow the 4 cops as they ran for their lives was kinda fun though..like the old shell game.
the crowd only attacked after they notices that one bashing in the guy with his night stick way to many times...

Four men holding him down and from what you can see he's not fighting back, yeah no need to continually jab him with a nightstick.

I like the idea of letting the cops do their jobs, if cops go too far, citizens unite and attack. Keep a balance.

i agree degeneret... balance....

i also think that the police have a job to do, and that job is to arrest criminals and get them off the street and the judicial system should keep them locked up appropriately, but they dont. so, cops often arrest the same people over, and over and over. not only does that waste tax dollars, but it puts the citizenry, and LEO's in dangerous situations that they shouldnt be in.

its all related to prison overcrowding, and the fact that politicians dont want to fix real problems that cost real money. but, if they did this Im sure they could project that policing efforts would drop (less overtime, etc..) and it could help balance the cost out over time.

and in the case of this video, this was a fan running across the field (and he shouldnt have been), and he ends up getting seriously assaulted by that one cop in particular. it looks as if one of the other cops actually tries to tell that one douche to stop... but, in the eyes of the fans, they went too far and decided to put an end to it... i dont have a problem with this type of reaction.


it leads me to another thought that im going to post a thread about?
