That said, the actions of the cop in this case were not too outrageous. It is just unfortunate they led to great injury. I do think the actions were those of a control freak upset someone did not stop the second they control freak demanded, but that is what you are bound to get in policing.

Typical boot-licker mentality. You probably wonder why people hate the police. Here is a perfect reason. That cop was overly aggressive towards a kid that was half his size and weight. He saw a chance to exert his authority over someone that was helpless to defend himself and hit him as hard as he could. From the cops actions, the kid have every reason to run.

We are only discussing it because it was caught on camera. If not, there would be no outrage whatsoever. The report would have falsified and the cop and his buddies would laugh about it hours later after a beer or two.

Justice demands that this cop spend a significant amount of time behind bars. He is a danger to the community. But, he will not. Being a cop means never having to say you're sorry.

Actually I often generally find fault with the behavior of the police in these cases. I do agree with all your reason people in this country don't care for the police particularly the failure of police officers to arrest their partner when they observe their partner commit a crime and their failure to treat the public with respect.

Still I will stick with what I said on this one. The cop pushed the guy toward a wall to stop him from running away from him. Such an action would not usually cause such great injury if any. The city in my mind should be libel, but it was an unfortunate incident that accidently led to great injury.
