More Republican cop crap!

[Webster Green]

1. Brutally assaulted over pot.

Fucking asshole pigs.

I hate fucking pigs more with each passing day.

Yeah, I know there are a few good ones. Big fucking deal. Most of them are sadistic fucking assholes! :mad:

[KansDem]

30. Last weekend, I stopped in at a local restaurant for breakfast...

Local police eat there as well. This time there were three burly cops--all three with shaved heads.

I wondered why many cops nowadays seem to want to shave their heads? Do they think it makes them look more military-like? Less friendly? More intimidating? :shrug:

[Hope And Change]

2. I`m so angry now after I saw this video.

[McCamy Taylor]

3. Thanks to the brave officer who came forward to testify against the guilty ones.

That took real courage. He is a hero. I wish that more police officers could be like him.

[snake in the grass]

4. You are so right.

It took enormous courage to act against the pressure of colleagues and to speak out for what is right. I hope this doesn't end his career as is often the case when an officer exposes the bad apples.

[awoke_in_2003]

24. Unfortunately...

his career is as good as over. Cops are a tight knit bunch.

[snake in the grass]

31. I suspected as much...

...and that is very unfortunate. We need more of his kind. It makes me wonder where the moral compass is by the others. Surely they recognize that what their colleagues did was very wrong, not to mention sick. They should be happy to be rid of them.

[awoke_in_2003]

34. I'll get nailed for saying it...

but most cops are people that never got over being the high school bully.

[snake in the grass]

35. I don't know it it's most...

...but there are a lot, too many for my taste. I personally know of two from high school who went on to be cops and they never should have been allowed on the force. I've also heard they are taking Gulf Wars vets, many of whom are suffering from untreated PTSD. This is a bad combination.

[Ken Burch]

21. They better give him protection. Some of "New York's Finest" will be looking to take him out now.

And they'd be certain to get away with it, like they always do.

This cop has balls and a true sense of right and wrong.

[Idealism]

5. Oh NY Cops, will you ever all be clean?

[niceypoo]

6. It's Giuliani time!

...again

[IndyOp]

7. Truth will set us free. The victim is a man of great courage. Peace. (n/t)

[defendandprotect]

8. Anyone want to tackle why sexually penetrating other males ...

with objects so obsesses NYC police officers ---?????

[Laughing Mirror]

19. It is the ultimate humiliation, male to male, in their minds

and that's one of their tactics, part of their panoply of torture, to humiliate the suspect.

[defendandprotect]

33. I agree with your asessment ....

especially adding "in their minds" ...

[Leftist Agitator]

9. Well thank God they got the marijuana of the street!

That pot-smoking scum could have dealt his poison to kids!

[lxlxlxl]

10. damn...i was hoping this was old video...

having been the victim of police bullshit the past few years, i have to tell you how hard it is to be vocal and defiant about what is happening in our streets...

i cant beleive this shit happened during the day.

[Downtown Hound]

11. Sometimes I think we should take lessons from the Greeks

I wonder if the cops would keep doing shit like this if they knew that every time they got caught there'd be a riot the likes of which few of them have ever seen before.

[MadMaddie]

12. I am sure this happens elsewhere but what is it about

New York cops and raping men with objects. If they are doing this to men, then I shudder to think what is happening to women and what is not reported.

[awoke_in_2003]

25. It is a complete show of dominence...

with the benefit of not leaving DNA evidence. Alpha gorillas will do this, too (well, without objects that is)/

[AtomicKitten]

13. Thank goodness for the one honest transit cop that stepped forward.

That kind of brutality is reprehensible.

[defendandprotect]

14. kick

[Amonester]

15. police everywhere

justice nowhere

(x-cept for one Brave off.)

[LynnTheDem]

16. MORE reason to INVADE evil places like IRAN!!!

Oh wait...


Never mind.

[DaDeacon]

17. What's up with New YouK cops and Anal violations?

_ I mean this is not the first time for NYPD to violate someone in this way remember http://www.cnn.com/US/9708/14/police.torture/">this from 1997!

[Chulanowa]

20. Rape is a quick and easy method of brutalization

And in a lot of cases, the victim is so ashamed and mortified that they will not come forward with it. it gets all the effect of savagely beating someone, without the "obvious" injuries of external bruises, broken limbs, etc.

It's just the pigs doing what they're trained to do - abuse the suspect while leaving as little indicting evidence behind as possible.

[ihavenobias]

18. K & R

[bitchkitty]

22. This is disgusting.

Kudos for the transit cop who came forward.

It's things like this that get the press, and good cops pay for these slimeballs' actions.

I don't hate cops. I do strongly dislike brutal people though, and these three qualify as brutal.

[Waiting For Everyman]

23. Two things...

One, we are hiring the OPPOSITE of the kind of people who should be in these jobs. Why is that, I wonder? How could the hiring and training system get it so wrong, so often? It seems rather improbable that abusive stuff should be so common and widespread, doesn't it?

Two, I'm not a user (never liked it, myself) but pot is NOTHING. There's no way we should be criminalizing people for it, for the last 4-5 decades. We have 25% of our population incarcerated now, which leaving aside many other outrages about that, is expensive. And prison guards making 100K? WTF? I'd say some rebudgeting and reprioritizing there would be in order.

There are too many petty legal issues of all kinds today with too serious legal consequences. We're micromanaging peoples' lives, while the really serious dangers are ignored or shoved aside. This is just more of the "social agenda enforcement" mentality... we see it for what it is here - barbarism, legalized. What's wrong with this picture? The cops like this are the criminal danger, and a lot are like them. Coincidence?

We've seen lately "the system's" hatred for the public economically. Isn't this hiring of mad dogs to "protect" us, another of its intentional ways of attacking and destroying the public? (All the while bleeding our own funds from us, to use against us - just as in our other "problems".)

[happygoluckytoyou]

26. I (BATON) NEW YORK ! we need a new T-shirt ! ! !

[20score]

27. What the fuck is it going to take before the people say -"Enough, you bastards!"

Every day something like this happens because the cops get away with it. We need cops - we don't need cops that are worse than the criminals. Nor should we put up with cops that that belong behind bars.

[wial]

28. is there anything in the constitution protecting the right

of *cops* to bear arms? gunless, batonless, taserless cops might be more civil and might find more effective ways of keeping the peace and working for a less violent society for their own safety if for no better reason, and it would reduce the allure of the profession to the more brutal elements.

Obviously, a minimum now would be taking away any weapon they can use for anal penetration short of what they're born with. Hell, let's just outlaw male cops. We'd be better off with gorillas.

[Rebubula]

29. As much as I ....

...agree that this kind of shit is disgusting and must be dealt with severely - to make this political cheapens your argument.

Assholes and bullies come in all shapes, sizes, genders, religions and party affiliation.

Hyperbole makes it less likely that people will listen....OK...people that do not post here

[Jennicut]

32. My best friend's fiance is a cop and a very good one. There are good and bad in all professions

but abusing power when you are a police officer makes the other person feel like anyone with authority is not to be trusted, it is a betrayal. Rob, my best friend's fiance is a good, hardworking cop. He has seen his share of dead bodies and drugs and bad crime and also some asshole cops on his own force. His Dad is a cop so he feels he has to uphold his job with some respect. I have immense anger toward these cops that abuse innocent people.

[truedemm]

36. How fortunate that someone came forward.

The cops would have probably said that he "already had" those internal injuries (from a police baton-shaped object) before they came upon him..
