Because we can't have old Indian men just walking our streets.

I think there are many who have just accepted this is the way it is.. I can't personally stand to watch these kinds of videos.. didn't watch this one..

Though to be a police officer was a great honor .. because they were honorable people... this is not so much the case yet they are still given great honor...

you know what else is fu%king sad. The police chief saw the video and fired that cop immediately, but all the other police officers testified that the police in question did nothing wrong and followed proper protocol and basically they turned on the police chief.. and the police chief ended up having to pay a fine. Don't get me wrong, what happened to the poor old indian guy is the worst thing to come out of this but it's seriously a fu%ked up world when there are more bad cops than good cops.

Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange's request came after two federal juries failed to reach verdicts in the civil rights case against Eric Parker, the officer accused of taking down 58-year-old Sureshbhai Patel, who was left seriously injured.


Two packs of useless Americans couldn't pin a charge on a cop... lol

ACCUSED.. when will VIDEO EVIDENCE BE ENOUGH.. he isn't accused.. we all saw it..


It only takes 1 to hang a jury.

Though no one died a man was paralyzed. I want to see some LG outrage of the acquittal. The system set him free, the system set OJ free.

My hope is some serious penalties comes from the civil trial.

This is precisely why people are mad. An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind. We know this. But you cannot have a situation where those who are sworn to protect and serve can continuously bypass any real form of accountability for their bad behavior. It's unsustainable. No matter how much law enforcement uses the justice system to shield themselves from justice, at the end of the day, they all gotta walk those streets. And they are walking increasingly hostile streets because the system has been completely rigged in their favor. And they own none of it. Most of these departments won't even acknowledge that they have a problem.

Authorities in New Hampshire said that they had arrested two state troopers and charged them with assault for their actions during a violent arrest captured on video earlier this year.

The arrest occurred after a long police chase that began in Massachusetts and ended in New Hampshire, after which at least two officers were seen on the video repeatedly punching the driver who had led the pursuit.

After video of the incident began to spread online, Joseph Foster, the New Hampshire attorney general, launched a criminal investigation into the episode. The New Hampshire State Police and Massachusetts State Police each pulled a trooper involved in the incident from duty while the investigation was carried out.

On Tuesday, Foster announced that the two troopers — Joseph Flynn, 32, of the Massachusetts State Police, and Andrew Monaco, 31, of the New Hampshire State Police — were arrested and charged with simple assault for their use of force during the arrest.

I think the cops are poorly trained in this country. They abuse power they are not held accountable and worst of all they know they can get away with it. Can you imagine how worse it was before everyone had a smartphone with a camera. Imagine all the crimes they got away with. All the cover ups all the theft. Just sad our cops are like this.
