Oh man, it looks like this could be a bit of trouble.

Damn!! I guess "I can't breathe" translates into I've got a gun or something....

I know this is taken out of context.

Policeman! nice career for some, short job for others.

Is that Plano or Dallas PD?

By the way, for everyone out there... If a cop has his knee in your throat, don't say "I can't breathe" cause clearly you can. That's like saying "I don't have a tongue".

What you should do is gasp and make the horrific sucking noises you can imagine. At least he'll get his boot off your neck. Now as to being punched in the nose repeatedly, sorry, nothing you can do about that. You're American.

Hmm, I would like to see what happend before and after. They will have to answer why they punched him in the face. "I can't breath" Let them put on the cuffs then they'll let u breath.

This was the LA police department at there finest again. Seriously wtf...

The LAPD and the FBI launched an investigation after a home video was filmed by a female bystander showing the brutal arrest of 23 year-old William Cardenas in Hollywood on August 23rd. The amateur video shows a police officer sitting on the victim as a second officer places his knee on the victims throat and punches him six times in the face as Cardenas lies on his back, waving his arms and calling for help, "I can't breathe!" He suffered black eyes and a split lip, requiring stitches above his right eyelid to repair the damage inflicted by the LAPD officers. ACLU official Ramona Ripston charges that "Californians are entitled to more transparency than a chance video. YouTube is not an acceptable substitute for accountability."

Wow, you've got to be sharp to catch a vid - caught myself from submitting this as a dupe after seeing the slashdot article on it.

Note to self: If you're going to be a d*ckhead with police, don't resist when they take your *ass down.

*dead
