Latency wrote I believe in morality. There needs to be certain times when and when not to follow the law. Yes he was being a distraction but I believe he was getting ready to leave when the cops involved themselves. There was no reason for them to take him into hand cuffs.
They told Rosby multiple times to turn his music down in his vehicle so they can hear whats going on with the robbery. He never did and completely ignored them and said "civil rights violation" before returning the dog to his car. In California(This scenario taken place) you can get a ticket for having music too loud if you were already been talked to about lowering it down. Since Rosby was giving such an attitude, they were handcuffing him to put him aside for questions on why he was having an attitude(not arresting). But then he was making a big deal about it and thats when the dog came running to defend him.
Yes officers have killed animals in the past for no reason i am just saying in this situation its not JUST the officers fault in this one.

I agree, however it should be noted that the number of corrupt/unjust police is actually very low. The few bad ones (Like the one responsible for the death of Eric) spoil it for the rest of the force, who truly do just want to serve the community.
I believe however the bad ones should be dealt with more severely, to deter other officers who are thinking of being unjust.

That so called illegal move is a choke used in MMA It does not restrict oxygen it restricts blood flow. There is no way he choked to death by being in a half rear naked choke.

I think this thread has the potential to be the ultimate cop brutality mega-thread.
On my browser the first case with Eric Garner isn't showing up with a video clip. That would be super important & beneficial but all the same for source links at the bottom of every case.
This subject unfortunately can go on, and on till you posted all of world stars police brutality clips but that could be rather tedious. (I've done it)

>A few cops abuse their power and get insane media attention
>Nearly 800,000 cops total
You're generalizing a very small minority as if it was the majority.
Guilty by association is ignorant.
The majority of cops do as they're supposed to, and are all around good people.

I think you are categorizing all cops into one mass group. There are some crooked cops and cops who think they are above the law, don't get me wrong. What they did with Eric Garner is tragic but people need to realize if a cop tells you to move somewhere because you are being questioned about a crime, just do it. Stop resisting and exclaiming "I am not doin nothin'." If your innocent then go talk with the cop and you will have nothing to worry about. Instead he tried to fight it like it was a huge deal.That situation could have very easily been avoided. The dog that was shot in that video tears me up, and everyone else hit the nail on the head. I am a huge animal lover, just rescued another one, but it was mostly the owners fault that it got shot. If he had better self control and was not acting like an ass, it would have been avoided. Back on the start of my post, not all cops are bad. Read in the news, it will be hard to find them, about all the good things cops have done around the world too. Here's just a few that I found:

My point is not all cops are bad or corrupt or immoral. There are still good cops out there, and with that being said as well you have to look at both sides of the story. People will never understand what it's like to have a snarling dog getting to close for comfort, or having a drugged up (or sober) man charging you, nobody will know what is going through that specific officers mind at that specific time. These cops have families and loved ones too. If they don't take the extra step in CERTAIN situations, the role is reversed isn't it? Then we will have a story about an officer who decided not to shoot the dog attacking him, won't get to see his kids grow up, and the dog will be euthanized anyways. It is a lose, lose situation. As a police officer you know what you are signing up for, you never leave the public eye. Your every move is judged. Try being in their shoes ONCE. You'll have a different tune.
That is my thoughts on your topic.

Doha wrote Honestly, this is why I want to leave the US and start my family somewhere else.. I don't care if other countries aren't as free as we are but at least I wouldn't have to worry about my kids or family getting killed/hurt by the LAW.best place is the uk, police don't carry guns on them. Only time there is guns if it's necessary. Police over here don't have the option to whip out a gun and shoot you. And for the people saying it's just a small minority of the police and it's not the polices fault ? Then why aren't things being done about it then ? Search police brutality and there is hundreds of videos that can't be denied. I seen a man get shot for refusing to leave the area from outside the shop and they just shot him in the middle of the street. It's only going to get worse and worse and It doesent reduce crime, if you had a family member shot dead by the police for basically nothing then you would have a totally differant opinion. Not saying every single police officer is like this as I've seen some really nice ones and there is aloe out there but in America that needs sorted out

I agree there are immoral police officers out there. Something needs done about them 100% behind you on that. It puts a damper on the force as a whole though which isn't fair to the ones who do their job and actually care about their communities.
