+1 man that was totally excessive forceDumb ass cop, glad he got what was conning to him!
I'm not saying all cops are bad, and never would suggest they should be abolished.*sigh* I don't mind seeing random idiots online say stuff like this but when it's people I know it drives me crazy.
Authority isn't innately bad guys... We have them for a reason.
A few jabs with a stick for resisting arrest and wasting a few thousand people's time is a fair trade off.

Pointing out issues with the assholes it employs is not the same as saying *FUCK DA PO LEASE*
^ What did I just watch? That is horrible.
Sometimes I really hate people.
I'm not a peace officer and I ended up with slugs almost turning my insides out. And that was an incident where I shouldn't have been making any stops or detentions what so ever because I'm not "released". Bad decision and look where it got me. You're right about bad cops but this should have been predicted, LAPD has always and still is a problem, at least from what I hear, the "Blue Shield of Silence" and more items that only scream bloody murder.These security guards used excessive force and got the favor returned to them. Nobody is bashing peace officers and the important role they play in today's society. But just like you have good cops, you have people on the force who should never have gotten in. You can spend hours on the internet watching police officers abusing their powers...
A perfect and very famous example is that of Rodney king.

..I'll give you a weapon for a copy...Only the homemade porn you and I made that one time
A woman was running late for work. She zooms along an overpass. Unbeknownst to her, a cop seeking to make his quota in order to be promoted to prime asshole is hiding behind a billboard at the end of the overpass; he measures her speed with a radar gun, takes off after her and pulls her over.
"Where's the fire?"
"What fire? I'm late to work."
"Is that so? What do you do?"
"I'm a rectum stretcher."
"How do you do that?"
"I work all my fingers in until I have both hands all the way inside, then I stretch out the rectum until it's a big asshole."
"And what, may I ask, do you do with a big asshole?"
"I put him behind a billboard on an overpass and give him a radar gun."
