Plus I'm not criticizing cops in the U.S. in general jackass, I'm saying those idiots 1) shouldn't have done that and 2) if they were going to do it, have the common sense not to do it in front of the fucking cameras :lol (the latter was a joke, just in case your dumbass doesn't get it.)
I really find it hilarious that you feel identified by this, as if me briging this sort of shit its due attention is somehow a "foreigner's way of putting down America". You seriously have an inferiority complex the size of Texas, don't you?
Cops are not supposed to let themselves be driven by emotions. I surprised this is so fucking hard to understand. They're cops, and with all the authority that brings, comes tremendous responsability. I don't think this low life piece of shit that tried to run over the cop should get off scot free, but that's for a court to decide. Its not whether or not the douchebag deserved the beating (which he did), its about overstepping boundaries that are there for a reason.
:lmao @ not being able to tell whether the crook was unconcious or not. He got thrown out of a fucking car and was not moving by the time the cops got to him. The beating was revenge, it had nothing to do with subduing. The cops were fired justifyably.
Their job was to subdue him first, ascertain the state of his health second, since he had shown nothing but a willingness to kill anyone in his way, they were totally correct in what they did.
I mean you act like the guy couldn't be faking it, like he couldn't recover, like unconciousness has a set duration...all this happened much faster than you seem to think it did...
Anytime a guy is refusing to surrender and endangering others...and especially showing a willingness to murder, his safety and well being is the absolute last priority, in fact, it's completely ok to kill him if necessary in that situation.
You are supposed to surrender if the cops are chasing you, if you refuse, what comes after is on you.
IF you surrender and then cops beat the shit out of you...I am all for maximum prosecution of those cops.
Re: 5 cops beat unconscious criminal
People somehow think this aggressive behavior is somehow unique to police officers. Anyone remember what happened to Richard Ramirez, a.k.a. "the night stalker" when he was spotted in LA? They pretty much went medieval on his ass before the cops got there and saved him.

I disagree. Yes their job was to subdue him first, but the guy just got thrown out of a rolling vehicle for christ sake... did you not see the video or what?? How do you fake that shit? I'm sorry, but IMO it was pretty damn obvious the man wasn't getting up. Besides, you don't need 5 officers kicking and punching to subdue an individual, specially one in the condition.
Plus, I don't understand where you're coming from here. I mean, they either were subduing him and the hits were necesary or they were being unproffesional and you're trying to justify the hits because he almost ran over their fellow cop. Neither of those scenarios is acceptable IMO, because 1) how is it proper procedure for a cop to punch and kick a person into submision, let alone 5? and 2) if its not procedure, which it's not, then the hits can't be justified no matter what the crook did prior to that.
Again, I'm not justifying what that lowlife did. If he had been killed in the crash it would have saved everyone a lot of trouble. The reality of the matter is, he didn't.

I hate agreeing with you but I think you nailed it.

Pretty much everyone in this thread who is taking the side of a reckless and hostile criminal over that of 5 near as I can tell extremely competent and restrained poliice officers all things considered, don't deserve their protection.
So let's look at what has happened....because some asshole refused to surrender and attempted to murder and recklessly endanger everyone on a surrounding a highway, these 5 cops were fired?
That is the bad idea...stupid stupid people. It assumes being a cop is easy...an assumption being made by near as I can tell, not a cop among us...and gives a hostile, murderous piece of shit more empathy and concern than the 5 sane guys who risked their lives to take him down.
What an ignorant fucking society we have.
