Video: Time for another 800-comment police brutality thread

posted at 8:17 pm on May 13, 2009 by Allahpundit

Via HuffPo, an unusual entry in our long series of cops behaving badly: There’s no doubt that this is, in fact, brutality, but there is some doubt that any serious harm was done. Also, what’s the deal with the press making a big deal about the high-five? It’s not clear if the second cop even saw the kick to the suspect’s face. Looks to me like they’re celebrating having apprehended him, not booting him in the skull.

Still, a nasty blow, and one for which he’ll surely reprimanded. Prediction: Desk duty for three months.

Lord, you are a dishonest and bitter bore.

Oooh, a devastating riposte! Cuts me to the core, it does. Not. Tool.

In fact, subpoena is probably the better way to go rather than FOIA.

BTW, you do realize that a subpoena is associated with an open legal action, and not a generally available tool for getting information you’d simply like to have, don’t you, Mr. Very Intelligent, Educated Minority?

See how this works, Blake? When I assert that you said something, and you tell me you didn’t say it, I can link to you saying it and quote you saying it, proving you to be wrong and/or a liar. Pablo on May 19, 2009 at 9:13 AM

But, you didn’t link or prove that I said what you falsely claim I said. Apparently, you have difficulty comprehending simple English or you are delusional. Maybe, you’re both?

You’re the one who has been yapping all along that there is going to be a lawsuit, Mr. Dumbass.

Cop Hater: After an investigation, the DA has found that there was no inappropriate use of force and your boyfriend’s injuries were superficial abrasions. Therefore, they have declined to file charges.
