Cop kicks and beats man with Dementia

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
That was completely unnecessary.. no need to kick and repeatedly punch someone who has made no threatening actions towards you. The man having dementia does matter. Perhaps the cop told him to stop but he couldn't comprehend what the cop was saying, and thus the cop responded by his failure to stop by beating the man to the ground? We can't know for certain. There's not audio or accompanying information to this video other than the man having dementia, so we really can't say anything for certain. Maybe the cops actions were justified but from what I can see I highly doubt that.certain
the guy having dementia cannot be relevant unless it was know and last I checked dementia patients don't walk around with a scarlet D sewn to their shirts. If an officer gives an order and it is ignored they have to assume the worse or they are putting their lives in danger.
 
There are good cops and douche bag cops... just as there are good mailmen and douche bag mailmen. Some cops are as low, dirty, inhumane scumbags as people say they are. But calling all cops "pigs" is just unfair. Police brutality will always make the news, but when a cop saves someone or simply helps an old lady across the street will never get on so much as a sunday coffee house rag.
Some cops are power-abusing, violent, POS' that should undoubtedly be stripped of their badges and put behind bars. Or better yet, put into stocks on street corners to be hit with rotten vegetables. But it's not fair to lump them ALL under that category. I have several police officers in my family, and I cna guarantee to you that none of them would do that to someone if there was no threat.
To be honest I didnt watch the video. And I dont plan to, because if there is no audio, it's useless and I can pretty much picture what happens. I just thought I should throw some balance into the discussion.

Completely agree with what you just said. Too bad people are all bitter because they received a ticket and believe that even though THEY were breaking the law, the cop was still an *******
 
You people hating on cops.. Did you even read the youtube description? This police officer was called because this man threatened another with a knife. Dementia or not, if a man who you believe has a knife is coming towards you and you repeatedly ask him to back away and he doesn't, you have no choice. I agree that the beating was harsh but as a cop you never know when somebody is gonna reach into his pocket and stab or shoot you.

Yes I did read it and it enraged me even more. He attempted to turn off his cam. He lied under oath and said the man assulted him. If your gonna use part of the video description use the full thing.

I can see his hands. No knife. I also know PDs carry pepper spray and tazers. Neither was used. Oh but wait, when the cop was lying on top of him choking him, tgen the tazer was used. Oh and the cop walked up to him.

If you live your life as a cop acting like that cause your so nervous, find another job. That one aint for you.
 
damm how far up did them gooles go,:jaw-dropp any one that watches u tube should know to stop when asked by a cop:popcorn:, if you stop and do as asked then alls well, but if you wana risk warth then hay carry on it makes good u tube:ROFL:
 
I like how people use these BS disorders to justify their actions. I have dementia, yeah that's it, no wait I have add, no I think I'm bipolar, I only had a little to drink officer :ROFL: "Book 'em, Danno.

This is madness officer :eek:
Cop: This is Sparta!!!Kick :irked:

I have no explanation for why the officer turned off his cam and I believe that is wrong. I do not believe that they used excessive force as they believed the man had a knife on him and he was resisting arrest. As for the cop walking up to him thats completely false. The cop put out his arm to push the man back and the man continued to advance so the cop reacted.

Also if the cop used pepper spray you think your reaction would be different? It would be the exact same thing. ******* cop pepper sprayed an old man with dementia. All cops are always on guard with suspects who could be dangerous. Thats like telling somebody in the army to go find another job because they're nervous around people who have guns.
 
Choking isnt excessive force? Waaaa??? Kidney punchs?

And no, if he had pepper sprayed him this thread wouldnt be going. That action would be justified.

Im out. Said my peace and people oking this iritates me. I dont need to raise my bp anymore.
 
Hmm I can see this post blowing up now.
 
Hmm I can see this post blowing up now.

cant see why it should just because ppl differ on what the cop should have done,is no reason for ppl to fall out,1st and foremost this fourm is about fish and these threads are just for a bit of fun, if ppl want to really comment strongly about things like this they should really go to u tube,, but thats just my thinking i dont care much:ROFL:
