GQ_jumper 4 #2 February 20, 2008 You should edit the title to reflect that he is now an ex-officer, portraying him as still being part of the force will only serve to cast a negative light on the rest of his department, which accoding to the article fired him due to the incident.History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. --Dwight D.

I agree, but there are good cops out there. All it takes is one f-ed up bastard to taint an entire department. Like you, I hope this guy gets some jail time with the general population.

1888 0 #9 February 20, 2008 Certainly not justifying this guys actions but any cop will tell you that he would rather arrest 10 drunken men than one drunken woman. I speak from experience as I was a Trooper for 20 years. Without fail, they screech, scream, cry, kick, threaten, punch, spit, fall on the floor, etc. Men (especially the big ones who could pound you into the ground like a fencepost) will usually submit without much fuss, unless they have a new girlfriend in the car they want to impress. Men, even drunken ones can usually be reasoned with. Not so with women. I have never seen a woman DWI who would listen to reason. Lucky they are smaller than men. Of course that doesn't give anyone to beat the shit out of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GQ_jumper 4 #10 February 21, 2008 a badge has become less about protecting people and more about intimidation. Quote No, the media just drools over stories like this and the 1% of the police officers who make the concious decision to beat someone who is in handcuffs senselessly get all the attention. Having a badge hasn't changed one bit, the bad ones just get all the attention, when was the las time you heard a sotry on the news about how a cop risked his life to save a small child, I can't remember, doesn't mean it doesn't happen just as often as incidents like this. I also agree 100% with what 1888 said, drunken women are horrible to deal with when they need to be restrained, I used to work as a bouncer and anytime I had to break up a fight between a couple of men it didn't matter how much they hated each other they never took it out on the bouncers when we stepped in, they respected the authority and acted reasonably towards us at least. Women on the other hand, when I had to break up their fights were impossible to deal with, they would kick and scream and spit and turn their anger on us, I can't count how many times I've been punched by a girl and couldn't do a thing to stop it, I wasn't supposed to put my hands on them in any capacity so I would just stand their between them and eat the punches. I don't condone this officers actions, but there may be a very good chance that she provoked him, doesn't make it right, but she most likely made the situation worse.History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. --Dwight D.

As well he should. New media reports on news, not on what happens every day. I am sure you would be pretty annoyed if a 747 crashed on takeoff at JFK and the media insisted on reporting on every single one of the safe 747 takeoffs and landings that day before getting to the crash. Indeed, you would likely change the channel, because you wouldn't care to hear about every single American Airlines 747 that DIDN'T crash. And that's why they don't report on the rest of the flights/police officers - because people like you change the channel.

Cop dies? Stop everything! Interrupt all programming. Spend hours watching the funeral procession. Listen to every two-bit politician pushing their face into the camera to express their sympathies. Grow some thicker skin. It's a tragedy when anyone gets killed, but they don't pre-empt an entire afternoon's programming if some convenience store clerk gets wasted by a crackhead. Rep. Tom Lantos died recently--barely a mention. It's neither insulting nor pathetic to wonder aloud at how cops are treated differently. Sacred cows. It probably plays into the cop's beating of that woman. I suspect that if our culture held cops to the same standard as a civilians, cops wouldn't go around tazing, harassing and beating people as they do. The stuff we see on YouTube is just the tip of the iceberg, but it gets the publicity (for a day or two). It's not just one "dirty cop". We have far too many Authoritarian Personality Disorder-type cops in this country. We have given them free reign to abuse the public, and rather than being held accountable--the system gives them a pass. Every time. Just wait.

jakee 1,255 #14 February 21, 2008 QuoteI used to work as a bouncer and anytime I had to break up a fight between a couple of men it didn't matter how much they hated each other they never took it out on the bouncers when we stepped in, they respected the authority and acted reasonably towards us at least. What? I've seen loads of drunk guys go for the bouncers in clubs. I've never seen one succeed, but they definitely try.Do you want to have an ideagasm?

GQ_jumper 4 #15 February 21, 2008 What? I've seen loads of drunk guys go for the bouncers in clubs. I've never seen one succeed, but they definitely try. Quote The club I worked at typically had a slightly better group of people that went there, I just lucked out in that arena. For us the only time the bouncers ever took a shot from a man was when we just got caught in the cross fire, we never had anyone intentionally come after us. We held ourselves to a very high standard with our conduct towards the customers as well, I'm sure this played a part in how easy the customers were to work with.History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. --Dwight D.
