Dropping the case? Wtf?! He needs to sue for that shit.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Damn. I hope that charges are brought on the pigs.

Shit like this just baffles me. Maybe I'm insane but if I were a cop, I could never picture myself saying:

"Hey Ted.
"Yeah?
"Let's go kick the SHIT out of the first person we see after this elevator door opens!!! And then...heheheh...Let's charge HIM with battery!
"...
"...
"Fuckin-A that's brilliant!
(ding)
(together) "GET HIM MAN!!!

On a side note, I wonder how this would be handled if the kid threw a punch back. Would he sill be charged? If a cop throws an unprovoked punch at me can I defend myself or do I have to curl into a fetal position and say "Stop officer friendly!"

looks like yet another case of exposing some lying pigs. *lies

Adding video to channels (Lies) - requested by Issykitty.

You know, I'd like to see a video where a horrifically violent perp gets a measured response from one or two of the OTHER millions of cops rather than the couple dozen -who are complete fucktards- that make their way on here.



ps. It's fairly obvious the guy who got beat down touched the cop while being fairly aggressive. Showing off for the chicks. Not a good idea. That actually IS battery on a police officer. You can get charged with assault on a police officer by bumping his squad car while he's trying to pull you over.

Are you watching the same video I am? At wrost it was a confrontive chest thrusting, which sure, can annoy the crap out of a cop, but the skin head mob reaction by ALL the cops suggests there's something pretty sick going on in that precinct.

That's so ridiculous on so many levels.

A couple dozen? Just on the sift you could probably find over a hundred, check youtube for thousands more. These are just the ones who got caught on camera.

At 0:12 into the video, look at the 3rd cop in, flashes a look of "What did you just do?" at the other cop. Me thinks not everyone agreed with his conduct.

There are plenty of those vids out there, mostly from Spike TV and TruTV shows.

Cop 1 & 2 ought to get sued for assault. The other cops should have stopped them more aggressively, but chose to be "loyal" to the other two, which as far as I'm concerned makes them accomplices. The Police Academies should teach them that a cop's loyalty is not to other cops, but to the law.

The police force needs to be purged of these bad elements, because they demean our whole idea of law and fairness.

Just another gang attack.

Yes. Please sift real arrests from 'Cops' or something LOL I don't like most peoples instant distrust and dislike of ALL police when viewing videos like this.

WTF? Still not what one would call a measured response. They look like trainees or something.

Tags for this video have been changed from 'elevator, beating, police brutality' to 'elevator, beating, police brutality, fascist cop' - edited by therealblankman

Technically the guy did assault the cop. He hit him with his chest, so yeah he could have been charged. Now the cop totally over-reacted and the other cops seem to just be throwing punches.

They only dropped charges hoping the guy won't sue. (If they went in front of a judge and he saw that video the thrown out criminal charges, plus discovery would help his civil case, this way it will be very expensive to try and sue the cops)

There is no way you can defend yourself except covering your vital body parts and even that could result getting hurt even more. There are too many videos out there that shows that even the basic reaction of curling into fetal position can get you tasered..

I wonder exactly what happened. Why is the guy closest to the door raising his hands? Why do the cops have bulletproof vests on?

Technically the guy did assault the cop. He hit him with his chest, so yeah he could have been charged.

Well, he can be charged whether he did anything or not. Given the corroboration of 3 or 4 upstanding fellow police officers, he can be convicted.

Unless there is a video.

Only in bizarro world could this be considered assault. Clearly the prosecution agrees. Or the tape got released.

Statistics show that crime rates are higher among cops than among the general population. The job attracts the wrong people. I guess it has been that way since "Gangs of New York" days. The culture has to change so that more decent people stand a chance as a police officer and want to be one to begin with. I say start with more restrictions and scrutiny than the general public. Being a representative of the law should mean you have to be held to a higher standard not a lower one. Many will complain but only with drastic change will the job attract the right people.

How about filing charges against the cops. Assault and perjury should lock them up for a long time. A lawsuit won't punish the cops at all.

Guy had his hands in his pockets. As for other cops with measured response: There aren't enough of them to stop the crappy ones so I think your ratio is way off. Even though cops get away with murder and many other crimes they still have higher rates of criminal convictions than the general population. Honorable people would rather volounteer as a firefighter (more dangerous, better culture) than become a police officer. The whole police culture needs to change in order for the right people to even want to apply. As long as the people in charge punish cops who try to do the right thing and protect the fucktards who are there to get away with things and feel powerful how are things going to get better?

And people being dismissive of the problem doesn't help either.
