I guess all of you have heard about the police beating of this 350 pound man. This event has gotten me heated.

They say that he apparently took a swing at one of the officers, so they clubbed him. This would be fine if they just knocked the wind out of him and handcuffed him. But these two officers continue to beat him down for several minutes, and even more officers join in for the stomping. I mean, these officers were using their knight sticks as golf clubs and jabbing him and doing every other possible form of attack a knight stick can offer.

On TV, one guy said the officers were not guilty of excessive force and were just acting in self defense. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't someone who acts in self defense stop attacking once the opponent is on the ground?

This event just sickens me. The man was beaten to death. Sure he had cocaine on him and took a swing at the officer, but once he is restrained, he should not be continued to be beaten. In the video you can see that he takes the swing and gets knocked down immediately and lays there. The officer stands over him for a good amount of time, and then just continues to beat the shit out of him.

Pitiful. I think each and every one of those participating officers deserve to bite the curb and the man's family members can kick their fucking heads in.

Fuck the police...

I got my ass beat down with those clubs...

I laid out one cop and got beat on for like 5 minutes

i seen this.seen the video on the news.and i think the officers did the right thing.350 pound man took a swing at an officer and wanted to run,becuz he had a good amount of cocaine on him.so another officer had to step in to help his partner,becuz 350 pound man vs. ur average size man,do the math,yeah they beat him down,but the dude kept on FIGHTING,he wouldnt stop swinging,even when they were on the ground,just put urself in the officers position,theres a big ass man trying to kill u,and u have kids,so its either u or him,and that 350 pound guy died becuz he had an enlarge heart,so him struggling with the cops killed him,not the body blows,the man is 350 pounds,not 100 pounds so those body blows wouldnt kill him becuz of all that fat...i dont normally take cops side,becuz i been harrassed so many times,with my frends for nothing,but this time in my eyes they did the right thing..

Fuck that... once you get hit 6-7 times with those fucking clubs you end up on the ground... once your there cops are trained with the know-how to immobilize you without the aid of striking the individual...

Fuck cops

Are you kidding me? He isn't swinging while on the ground, he is trying to grab the stick like a child would grab the belt that his parent might be beating him with. It is a natural reaction. When you are getting beat with something, you tend to try and grab that object to prevent it from striking you. Those officers used excessive force. They beat that man to the ground and then continued to beat him. There was nothing screaming "Self defense" in the entire event. Self defense was thrown out the window once the officer hovered over the fallen man and then started to beat the shit out of him again.

dog,have u seen the fuckin tape?the fuck u mean fuck that?the man didnt weight 100 POUNDS,the guy weights 350 fuckin pounds...a couple of hits wouldnt drop him,he kept fighting!!!!!!,wat if he snatched 1 of the cops gun?.then wat.u get capped,dropped dead,left ur kids with no father figure,put urself in the cops shoes cuz the situation was either U or HIM,take a pick...

it was wrong...they coulda easily taken him down...
hit the knees out or somethin...
instead...they hit em in the back n shit...
n the guy refused to stay down...shit woulda been ight if he did...
but he was off somes drugs n shit...
angel dust i guess n somethin else...
but hell...i think they coulda avoided hittin him a million times

muhthugga,dog,he was grabbing the sticks ur right,but that was becuz he was trying to stand UP,again and again and again,he tried to stand up,didnt u see that?.

and if u NOTICED,none of the cops hit the 350 POUND MAN on the HEAD ONES,not even ONE TIME,if they hit him on the head,now that would be intentional,and it would be a fatal blow.but the cops never hit the man on the head ONES...

^^^

Actually... many times body blows can be worse for you...

u people just dont get it....lol

he was 350 pounds

not 100 pounds

he was 350 pounds

hit a 100 pound man ones on the body with a stick,im sure he'll drop

hit a 350 pound man ones on the body with a stick,in all honesty,do u think he'll drop as quick like the 100 pound man?FUCK NO!specially when hes angry,on drugs,and trying to kill u,u actually thnk he'll drop if u hit him JUST ONES?

^^^

I'm 230...
And a professional fighter...

Does that give cops the right to beat me mercilessly?

NO

cryptic,did u even read,the man was a criminal,had a good amount of cocaine on him,the man REFUSED to be arrested,tried to run,and in the process he tried to take down a cop,cryptic u dumb as hell for saying wat u said,ur weight doesnt have to do with anything,the point is that 350 pound man was a criminal,violated the law....and tried to beat down a cop HIMSELF...period!

Read my other post....

I had the same fucking experience...
I laid out a cop...
Then was beaten the fuck down...
Cops are getting out of line period...
You cant relate to shit until youve been assulted with clubs for minutes while your coveering up face down on the ground

If he got hit in the knees by the night stick, say he didn't die from his health condition, he'd be maimed for life.

^^^

Very true....

Knees are a terrible thing to have go bad

OMG,this is pointless,why am i wasting my time arguing with a kid,that doesnt even read,and it looks like u dont even know the facts.jesus..

^dont take this offensively but your an idiot. it was fuckin police brutality.. come one man. i live in fuck South Central Los Angeles. the LAPD they are fukin known for police brutality. rodney king ring a bell??? they recently had sumtin like this in inglewood, CA. a fuckin 19 year old weighing about 135 was beatin mercilessly at a gas station. for no fuckin reason. some punk ass white sherrifs and 2 inglewood pd. why the fuck are you defending the cops? get off they dick nigga. you prolly live in the suberbs where all the cops are just fine and dandy but down here and im sure in other states they crooked as fuck. man open your eyes. how the fuck do you have m16 in your name and defendin cops. m16 are illegal........ but im guessing you never held no guns... since you a fuckin saint.

sorry bout gettin emotional but i just had a run in with a cop today. dont trip i ran and opened the back seat of her cop car. "let about 4 teenagers free".

Word

I hate when people think they are right when they havent experienced shit

Fucka babylon bandit! I have had my share of police beat downs, for next to nothing. As big as I am, there is nothing that can be done to stop them assholes from beating on you. Drugs or no drugs, they should have tazers. They are trained to deal with doped out perps, yet rather than wait a minute for the tazer they beat the crap out of you with those night sticks. Even if by way of devine intervention these cops are proven innocent of using excessive force, there is always someone getting beat off tape. Fucka babylon bandit.

i plan on studying Criminal Law at a local community college to become a cop.


Chrit, ill see you in 2 1/2 years...



and i wont use a nightstick.


naw...im better than that....

















ill use a gun.

Figures....

All because I beat you on RB so many times lol

I love you Dez :thumbup:

:)

if i can count the times on one hand, its not that many.

Its coming ever closer to two hands

This Guy Was On Pcp AND Cocaine. You Ever Seen Someone On Pcp? Shit Don't Hurt. They HAD To Beat Him Like That... And For The Same Reasons That M16 Was Sayin. You Or Him....

^^^

I fought a kid trippin on PCP...

All you have to do is put them in a chicken wing/choke hold...

Its non-lethal and immobolizes a person

Or Beat Them With Billy Clubs.....

^^^

Was far too extreme...

Cops are on power trips these days

im not defending cops,none of u fucks READ I SWEAR TO FUCKIN GOD!..haha...i had my share of cop harrasment myself,i hate'em to death,but this time,i just think there right.POSTMAN,never in ur life talk to a nigga like me like that,if we wasnt on the net,i woulda slapped u upside ur head kid.no point of threatin somebody over the net so just leave it like that and no im not from the burbs,im from newark,new jersey,and no its not "dandy"out here,held guns?have u held guns?have i held guns?wat do u know about guns?,shut the fuck up!,jesus,tellin me to take no offence come on kid,im just making a point,i think ur the one thats offended,atleast mental god sees wat im saying

yea cops are twisted... wel 90% of them... i heard them talkin at an atm as i walked by..... they white cop was tellin the hispanic cop a joke. (true story)
i cant tell the joke so its funny i can only give you wat it was basically sayin so it might not be that funny


the white cop:How many pounds is a billy club



hispanic cop: i dont know how many?



white cop: until he quits moving


im butchering it but you basically get the idea... and they were laughing and shit

What The Difference Between A Nigger And A Bicycle?





The Bicycle Doesn't Sing When I Put Chains On It....

..the fat fuck should've stayed down...big black nigga..

OK... Everyone Has Their Own Interpretation Of The Video Obviously. My Brother Is A Police Officer So I Might Have A Biased View On This Incident... But I Think The Officers Didn't Use Extreme Force. I've Watched The Tape Twice Now... And This Is What I See. I See Two 200 Pound MAX Officer And A Huge 350+ Pound Man That Is Trippin Out On Drugs. From Stories My Brother Has Told Me, He's Encountered People On The Streets On PCP And He's Seen Them Shot With Bean Bag Bullets From Shotguns Numerous Times And They Don't Go Down. He's Seen Them Sprayed With Pepper Spray, They Don't Go Down. Only Thing That Even Phases Them ARE The Baton Sticks. Back To The Video... I Saw The Man Trying To Clothesline The Two Officers So They Beat Him. I Then Saw The Man Fall To The Ground But He Kept Attemptin To Get Up So They Kept Beatin Him. In Fact, He Did Succeed In Getting To His Feet And They Kept Beatin Him. Finally, More Police Officers Showed Up And They Finally Wrestled Him To The Ground... And The Batons Were Put Away. So I Don't See Where These Cries Of "Excessive Force" Or Coming From.

And I'm Spent...
*Drops 2 Cents*

Word the cops did the right thing...more burgers for us...the dude was 350 pounds...if he started runnin hed prob die plus he was fucked on coke n pcp..his heart wudda gone if he sat down...

Axe Um has a good point. but look at it like this. id understand the beating if it were one 200 pound cop. but remember these were TWO trained officers. your cop is a brother so you should know the stuff they teach. knee to back grab one arm elbow to neck then hand cuffs. i dont care if he was yukazuna he wouldnt have got out of that. and yes he was on pcp. so really its hard for me to call..... i just get tired of police harassment.

This my friends, is a kid who has never been arrested, or any involvement with police. OR he lives in a gated community where the biggest police involvement is who stole the $90 calculator of the geek.

My cousin is a cop.

When a man strung out on drugs refuses to give up, you don't contintue to beat him, you pull out your fucking gun. Jesus, thats what its there for! You don't have to shoot the guy, but seeing a gun is a lot different than a fucking stick.

Or

So he kept on getting up? BREAK HIS LEGS! Hit is legs, not his fucking chest or head. Fucking hell its the only thing you go for when someone is 350lbs.

You are a 100 pound cop...this is trying to kill you



i wudda kicked him in the shin n ran away

Yeah, I Heard About
This On The Radio This
Morning I'm Pretty Uspet
But I Dont Really Know
What Happened, Cuz I've
Heard That He Was A 350 Pound
African American Who Was On
Drugs, It Seems Kind One Sided
To Me. They Made Him Out To
Seem All Bad So That People Would
Think That He Was Out Of Control
When That May Have Not Been The
Case...

A 100 pound cop? :spit:
