Seriously, that video would have been perfect justification for interjection and utilizing force to terminate the immediate threat to her.Originally posted by Denny View PostBTW, I do agree that is the case MOST of the time, but this one is a go.
I'm just saying, when the whole "respect mah authoritah" has been pounded so hard into John Q Public, it's a bit of a stretch to try and criticize those present for not intervening. Not to mention, who other than the guy filming, knew it was all on film. In fact, in the video, it appears that a woman even tries to stop him from filming. (I am thinking that was the cop's wife). And how many times have we seen cops trying to stop someone from videotaping police action, even when they have no cause to?
I will also add, someone who is a former LEO would probably have been far more comfortable challenging the cop's authority. But most of us don't have that experience / knowledge and would not want to risk charges against us.

I guess that is true as well. I'm getting tired of all these FTP incidents and it seems to be trending rather steadily. I'm sure the rest of the gen pop feel the same way.
Then again, I'd be the first to back up an officer in need while he was performing his rightful duties.

It's a very tricky dichotomy I hope to never be in.

Originally posted by line-em-up View PostI am so glad I wasn't there to see him twist her arms like that. I would have walked up behind him and shoved a sharp object into the side of his neck. I would have spit on him and laughed at him as his blood squirted out on the floor. I am so fed up with these assholes who don't even deserve to share the air that I breath. Let alone be able to be in a position of authority.

Originally posted by SS Junk View PostIn that pretty mouth of yours? What you're talking about is an orchestrated restraint which would take several people to do. How are you going to quickly coordinate that with everyone standing around? It'd be you and you only, and more than likely, since she was cuffed, he'd come after you. You reach for his gun that "aged and overweight" police officer then has a reason to kill you. The cops then reviewing this footage would then state the same thing, but regardless of you laying on a booze soaked floor bleeding out it's the chivalry that matters, right?
