Ooops, Sorry sir! Ha

interesting, how that escalated in to a use of force case. I would have thought that the officer being an officer (marine not withstanding) would have had more tact in the situation. bringing personal feelings into a situation such as that did not seem to be the correct course of action. I cant say how it should have been handled diffrently because I was not there. just because its on video doesnt reflect very well on body language. the vote could go either way on that one or both ways at the same time. just hard to say.

2 cops, 1 douchnozzel

Marine/Cop,
Hmmmm, kids puffing on that cancer stick pretty hard. Probably pinging pretty good. Yup sounds upset. Ok, upset we took a while. Can I see his hands, yup. ok good there. Does he have someone else who is about to jump me or my partner? middle of parking lot, looks ok there. Let's get my community policing verbal judo on here,
"Sir, Understand you are upset and I know it's fustrating that it took us a while to get here. Not enough cops, not enough money in the budget, but now that we're here, can you tell me the situation so we can help you out."

Or

F-n douchenozzle just interrupted my donut break because he can't handle his own business. Oh...he thinks he is bad ass because he was in the Army....now this is personal. One dude here in the parking lot, got back up 1/2 second away. Yup time for action,
Backhand strike to the superscapular nerve, take down. Now let's totally disregard most policy procedures and choke him while my partner watches my Marine awesomeness over his Army douchenozzelness!

Superscapular strike aka Austin Powers....JUDO CHOP!

I like the 2nd version best!!

LOL...I would expect so "USMC- 1990-1994 (Marine Corps Security Forces....)" Glad you enjoyed it

That's fucking bullshit, this guy and his partner should be at least fired for this. For all you cops that don't act like this then thank you, but all the ones I have ever dealt with were like this. Fuck them and their above the law attitude.

sorry...my internet humor didn't translate...I know what you were talking about.
Alls good.

Well, the guy was probably a real douchebag... I mean, his roommates beat him up and kicked him out... Sounds like some homegrown old-fashioned justice to me, but I don't know the whole story.

The cop assaulted him. No doubt about it. The guy was alone in the middle of the parking lot and did not physically or verbally threaten the cop... and then the cop stepped forward and smashed his face in. That is assault. He should be fires, tried, and convicted for assault, battery, or both. There is no reason that he should think he is above the law and not subject to the same laws as everyone else.

a) Unnecessary show of force
b) I want to hear what the people who allegedly beat him up had to say

IMHO, HS principal should be legally able to do that to those crazy HS students.
