More Bad Cops

[Koyuki]

wow, that was just downright dumb. If he's ever caught, assaulting an officer (or any other county, goverment, or federal employee) is guaranteed felony with 10 years in prison.

15 years.

Assault & Battery on Civil Service personal w/Dangerous Weapon.

That officer was out of line, completely..... can he take the skateboard? More than likely, if it was truely a no skate zone (didnt look like a skatepark, so more than likely was a illegal zone).

by watching the video, i have the feeling these kids have skated there before and have been told by that officer to leave in the past.

I'm pretty sure that if he had told them to leave in the past he wouldn't have continually ask the kid who he was. After about the second time I would imagine he would get info from the kid and call his parents.

They give test after test after test to see if you are some fucked up, power hungry, douche that needs anger management when you try to become a police officer of any sort (at least here in California), but occasionally, jackasses with personality disorders like these slip through the cracks of the screening process. It's unfortunate and always aimed at the young, defenseless, law-stupid generation that just so happens to carry video cameras around pretty frequently. Skateboarding for 7 years of my young-adult life, I've been a victim of this same exact shit too many times to remember. I've gotten literally arrested because I was skateboarding (legally) mid-day on a Monday until I finally convinced the asshole I had the day off school (he called my school and found that out), after which he never apologized and started asking about what kind of grades I got, as if trying to prove that I was a shitty person regardless of my innocense.

Officers should face very dire repurcussions for behaving like this because of all the effort the departments go through just to keep fucked up guys like this from carrying a gun around in public. Intimidation has its uses, but against some 14 year old with a skateboard who's doing nothing but some unintentional and ultimately minor minor minor vandalism... he's got no place acting like he did and he is a bigger embarassment to his badge and department more than any kid calling him "dude" could ever be.

We go through psych exams here in MA as well. Few hours with a shrink, shitload of random questions...... This guy though is a 17 year Vet. So that means last time he took a psych exam was probably 19 years ago. Sometimes, the stress of the job just gets to you......i'm not saying you can blame his actions on stress, theres no way. Just dont think the psych part of the application process failed on his part.

Too bad he came from behind and the officer didn't see it coming, there were plenty of people behind him too. It's been 2 years, the people that were actually there were all friends and acquaintances, they wouldn't rat him out. I still see the dude lurking around the park as usual, nothing is going to happen lol.

$20 says there is a camera around the park now?

I doubt it, still a lot of graffiti and same retarded underage kids drinking and smoking weed near or in the park. Hell two weeks ago these obviously underage kids pulled this huge glass bottle of liquor out of a backpack and were all happy about it saying they were going to get fucked up, do this do that, and some idiot dropped it and it broke. The entire skatepark reeked of the liquor, it was fucking hilarious they started like arguing and fighting over it. We got it on camera, waiting on my buddy to upload it.

When I was an undergrad, some of the film students had access to the communications building late at night to edit. There were two of us, myself and a grad student in the editing room for like 4 hours straight editing, and a university cop (not rent-a-cop) came in and accused me of letting someone else in the building - apparently he saw someone with a trench coat do so, and I had one draped over my chair. Despite the fact that the other person said neither of us had left for 3+ hours, he kept harassing me about it. He finally left.

A half-hour later I went down the hall to get a drink from the water fountain and he saw me and was glaring. I laughed at him, and he said "Do you have a problem?" I simply replied "Fuck...you" and walked back to the classroom.

The feeling of power was exhilarating.

I wanna know what the dude said as the video was ending.

I saw it on collegehumor earlier, the links I read to articles were somewhere in the comments, and I'm too lazy to dig them out.

Which part is the humor? The kid getting owned or the cop getting suspended?

Oh boy, here is another one, even worse. A cop of some degree attempts to test whether or not a person in a wheelchair is really handicapped...by lifting the chair and letting them fall onto their face, breaking some ribs in the process...Poor guy.

I feel its even worse then just how you stated it. The guy is a quadriplegic, they asked him to stand for a frisk...

Frivolous lawsuits aside, I hope he sue's for all he can get. Sometimes I hate being associated with all these retards I live around in South FL.
