And yet people make bad choices. Which is why so many of the amendments in the Bill of Rights pertain to law enforcement and the justice system. Turns out we don't get to treat people like crap just because they are accused of breaking the law. All people should be considered innocent until they are given a fair trial by a group of their peers. Resisting arrest/fleeing does not automatically make a person an imminent threat. Police should stop beating up people that are legally innocent and not imminent threats (and/or have a history of being a threat).

I can understand, and I'm not saying that these are evil cops beating the shit out of some guy, but this guy clearly was on something or having some kind of psychiatric issue, but he was terrified, and tactically, isn't escalating the violence and yelling causing him to resist more? This is the shit that I wish cops would be open to talking about. Even when someone is shot and the moment of the shot is considered a "good shoot", all the events leading up to it can often be counter productive. I wonder how this would have gone differently if the cops understood in the moment that he was resisting because he was afraid for his life, regardless of him being wrong, and that screaming at him and continuing to use physical force was just escalating his fight or flight response. He doesn't want to lay on his stomach because he thinks they're going to execute him. How might things have changed if they de-escalated the situation, explained calmly what he was being arrested for, tried to show that they're good guys, and just brought the intensity down to a level where his adrenaline isn't pumping and he could be reasoned with. I don't hate cops, but I'm absolutely terrified of them.

While there is always two sides to every story, when we've grown accustomed to police violating rights (mainly of minorities) and then going in front of the media and justifying it, it gets harder n harder to have any faith that you guys truly do the right thing, as opposed to just "backing the blue". Im former military myself, so I 100% understand having your battle buddy's back. But why is it that when an officer is BLATANTLY in the wrong that usually other officers are standing there NOT stopping it? Is there an omerta amongst police that you dont step on the others toes, even when you KNOW it's wrong? (The Floyd video perfectly illustrates what I mean. The cop is on his neck, and officer Thao is more concerned about being in the face of others filming than telling his partner to get off George Floyds neck).

So at 5:00 a cop tasers the guy for 10 seconds while he's lying on the ground. At no time was this suspect violent. He won't roll over onto his stomach while lying on asphalt and in your opinion that justifies police officers kicking him, punching him and beating him with a baton. In light of Chauvin's actions to a man lying on his stomach I wouldn't want to be in that position either. This is a clear case of cops having no desire or even knowledge of how to de-escalate a situation. Your defense of these bullies is exactly why people question whether there are in fact any "good cops".

[@NotShowingOff]

The problem here is, the guy was drunk and he was scared. He doesn’t trust the police to handcuff him and transport him safely. The cops responded by being excessive. Police have to realize that ppl aren’t going to be cooperative if they have handcuffs on, if they don’t trust the police. It’s a bad situation, but a police officer can’t just beat a person to compliance. Even ambulance medics have a problem with ppl being restrained.

Serious question: As a police officer, if you encounter the case that someone does not comply with your orders, there are two options: either they are wittingly uncooperative, or unwittingly uncooperative. In the first case, the use of force is justified. But how do you deal with the second case? Do you even make this distinction at all? The guy looks like he's drugged /drunk / otherwise not in a clear state of mind (and if he wasn't than let's pretend for the sake of argument that he was). How is he supposed to follow the police officers orders, if he cannot think straight? Is this much use of force still justified?

Nowadays, „police brutality“ is just another phrase for „it’s unfair for them to make me obey the same laws everyone else has to follow“.

[@YoungKnowledgeMusic]

The police officers beat his ass so long they all got winded 😭😂 “I’ll help you !”

[@chadskeen8559]

I respect your opinions greatly, next, lets do your workout routine vids and good routines for officers and upcoming officers

[@bluered1322]

That's a good example why they can't just arrest and charge cops based on cell phone videos alone. There needs to be a an investigation. If it worked that way there would be a lot of innocent officers behind bars

[@andrewpena9041]

I want to know why he was being arrested. If that level of force is being used for a non violent misdemeanor then that should be ruled excessive force. Would you seriously escalate to that level over a stolen candy bar? I hope not. In many states the victim will win a nice settlement. I know in my home state of Alaska that is a big factor in use of force cases. I mean yes the level of resistance justifies the level of force, but how about the reason the detention or arrest is taking place?

[@CraftyHalo]

Andrew Pena Public drunk. Listen to the video! If he’s grabbing weapons, I don’t doubt the excessive force! Especially if it gets to a situation where it’s their life over his

[@earllister5627]

@@CraftyHalo if the blue gang hadn't pulled out there I'm scared weapons he couldn't have grabbed them. Two on one two got weapon one don't he's trying to even the odds.

[@ryang9113]

@@earllister5627 It's not about a fair fight. This isn't the UFC and it's not a competition for a belt. He was being arrested calmly with minimal force when he decided to act a fool. He decided to spit at the idea of a normal arrest and then run on top of that. Most of you just hate the idea of laws actually being enforced so you will never be happy.

[@izicwindsor7987]

The start is the best part

[@elie4687]

I'm on the cops side of this video because the person did not comply and resisted arrest and took off running and got tased so ya the person had to be wrestled to be arrested. Sorry if someone doesn't agree but good upload 401

[@earllister5627]

What was the crime? For a crime to be committed there has to be a victim. The only victim is the man being chased and beaten by the blue gang.

[@OverTheVoids]

@@earllister5627 That's not at all true. There are plenty of things that you can do that can be considered criminal. Public intoxication is on the lower end of it, all the way up to something such as serial arson which is a very big deal, even if there are no people inside the buildings to be harmed/victimized.

[@earllister5627]

@@OverTheVoids there is a difference between breaking a law and committing a crime. There is a victim in a crime. This man broke a law he should have received a fine not an ass whooping

[@RudeDude2140]

Once he grabbed a weapon, it would be deadly force situation in our state. This is because the less than lethal weapon could be used against the officer to obtain the officer's firearm. Also, even attempting to disarm a police officer is a felony in most states.

[@oomerimunni]

If I went about this situation like they did, I would be fired and jailed. From day one I have been taught various ways to get a resistant person on their stomach and it's even easier with a partner. There are so many lock, pain points and so on to get someone on to their stomach. I think this was a massive fustercluck and these cops should be sent to or given extra training.

[@joaomatos7565]

I sucks that the first video would probably be incriminatory against the officers if they hadn't be wearing a body cam. The second perspective really tells a hole different story and I see exactly why you chose this story. Thanks for sharing!

[@raven55six]

The people who are damaging public property, looting stores and burning down business should be punished as more of a priority as compared to anything else. That's just crime happening on streets!

[@MichaelJTritter44]

You are exactly right... This needs to be said and repeated over and over again, videos don't always show the truth, since they can edit/not catch it all.

[@tyrelledavenport106]

It doesn’t coincide with justice. But people don’t wanna year about peacefully protesting. Look what happened with Kaepernic. Changed the entire conversation to military.

[@LarryJL]

Honestly the cops did a terrible job with the arrest. Not really surprised he reacted to it. I've seen conscrpit MP's with a few months of training handle arrests better. If he doesn't turn around on his belly they don't have to have him do it by himself by ordering or even worse beat him into doing it. They can easily do that themselves and there's a teqhnicue for it. It's very easy and basically just requires them to grab his hands and there's nothing he can do. Also if he keeps resisting they can just spray some OC in their hand and put their hand against his eyes. Works well and doesn't affect the partner or yourself of you just remember not to touch your face.

[@itsmemailingyou4234]

Second video from the cop doesn't start at the beginning of the encounter. Where is the full unedited version?

[@ramblinrec3326]

Seems like a mental issue, he wasnt trying to fight back or hurt the cops. Still seems excessive to me 2 vs 1 and the 1 is.on the ground

@@joshholden9360 it was a minor thing until the guy started to fight with the police.

It wasnt a mental issue it's a thug making excuses

[@annoyingcommentator1582]

He acts completely irrational (unless he is faking it, but then he is really good at it an probably paid the first camera). So he is unpredictable. They can't let him go like that and they can't arrest him with less force, is as I see it. Better options? If you think long enough about it probably, but how will you train officiers for that?

[@robsrides5851]

no arrests = no justice burning and stealing = no peace it makes perfect sense to me. arrest the murderers and the looting stops.

[@kevind8571]

Bad time to put up this argument but as a police officer I get why you wanna put it up. Nobody thinks all cops are bad but a very large percent of them use their job for ego and the legal ability to engage with voilence. Because for some reason police love "action". They get off on it.

If you look closely you can see the restraint the cops are using even in the first video. Probably 50% force and careful aimed strikes hitting the leg where it will inflict compliance inducing pain without causing perminat damage.
