Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

Status: offline 		The piece of shit cop only WISHED the black dude had warrants. Would've been so easy to steal his phone then. This makes me so angry it's unreal. Bastards like this guy are what give cops a bad name. Somebody says something they don't like and they just tear into them. Fuck police like that. "Special needs" or not, no one deserves that. Fucker. Take his badge.

Past history certainly matters, especially if it is a violent one. Ever ridden a bus? There are lots of metal bars, and hard plastic seats, and limited ability for innocent passengers to get out of the way, if the crazy, super-plus size lady has herself a "special needs" episode.

I suppose he could have pepper sprayed her instead. I'm sure the other passengers would have loved that.

Status: offline 		And, he put his whole bloody body behind that punch in a way that seemed to be an extreme over-reaction, and not at all appropriate to the situation. Waaaay overkill!

The problem with relying too much upon a past event, or history, he may or may not have been aware of about her, is that he cannot be present to the moment, situation, actions and reactions at hand that occur. He is stuck in the past, and likely to mis-read and over-react to perceived cues/stories that exist only in his head, which makes him fear motivated and dangerous.

Well, that may be the case, but what you saw isn't anything like enough to form a true understanding, or a reasoned opinion.

Agreed, Taz, we simply do not know enough, but as it stands, it does not look good for him. It will be interesting to see if anything comes about him having prior bullying issues. The way he so quickly, violently, and venomously struck like a snake, in such an animalistic way, leaves me inclined to think that might be the case.

Status: offline 		obviously not. if i did then it wouldn't have expressed what i wanted say. i think he is very much mistaken. like i said before, if he had not been a cop, he would be up in front of a judge posting bail, not "under investigation."
cops don't get a bye, if anything they must be held to an even higher standard than civilians.

in your opinion, which i believe is flawed.


That was a little uncalled for.
