Caught On Tape: Cop Pulls Gun On 2 Kids, Unleashes Profanity-Laden Tirade In Affluent Suburb

Now we have this story which will run a continuous loop of a cop roughing up a young girl. As the facts continue to emerge it now appears this event was handled more appropriately than we first thought. Handled perfectly? I still have my reservations, but then I wasn't the guy surrounded by the mob.

Like I said earlier cop shouldnt have manhandled the black chick, but she shouldnt have been in his face yelling, when you look at that video of a few kids instantly surrounding the cop with one of them with his hands where he cant see, the drawing of the gun seems wholly appropriate and he holstered it as soon as the kid started running.

The black girl shouldnt have gotten manhandled but she shouldnt have been yelling in the cops face either, looks like two idiots met up with each other, and predictably it had a bad outcome.

This situation certainly isnt worthy of protest, I feel sorry for the residents of this area, soon we will probably be able to chalk another left wing race riot up to blatant irresponsibility on behalf of the mainstream media. At some point I hope that these guys end up being found liable for the millions of dollars in damages their bullshit narrative keeps on causing.

It is disappointing that we have this leftist media which is so hell bent on driving their agenda. It is with malice and forethought that they poison the well of truth and facts as quickly as they can with half truths and misinformation. Once their story is out they know most of their idiot base will run with it without regard to any subsequent facts. Case in point. Hands up, don't shoot. A year after the event we still see the mob carrying their hands up don't shoot signs even though Eric Holder himself with his obviously bias agenda could not find a shred of evidence that Brown ever had his hands up yelling don't shoot.

Well, you know the media is a for profit business, so if the readers and viewers generally wanted to hear the rightist point of view then we would have a rightist media. Take solace in Fox.

One of the fundamental issues is that the "news media" has gotten away from reporting the facts as being of primary importance. In the old days, at least the media stories would report all of the known facts and then venture to give an opinion - while separating the two in the broadcast.

News today is more entertainment focused rather than fact based. Coupled with the bias of the reporters and owners (both left and right) - we have arrived at the situation now where the fact-free news with spin is effectively one big infomercial for shoveling the views of wealthy political backers on the population with minimal regard for the truth.

I guess I'm at odds with my conservative brethren, then. I expect a police officer to behave as a professional, especially when faced with disrespectful behavior. The badge doesn't give them the right to yell and scream when they are being yelled and screamed at. They have the power, they don't need to wield it unless necessary.

I used to work at clubs as a doorman. Sometimes people would get in my face. I would politely ask them to step back a foot so we could talk. Sometimes I would do this repeatedly. If they got more aggressive and put a hand on me, I would move into action without hesitation. But up until that point I spoke in a quiet voice (which forced them to tone down to hear me) and had a calm expression. If a simple doorman can do that, why can't a fully trained police officer?

No likely scenario that you can imagine unfolded prior to the video to agree that this behavior was appropriate? Wow. Perhaps more diversity enrichment in your neck of the woods would open your eyes.

That's right. No likely scenario that caused the police officer to leave the girl alone for the first 15 minutes, then walk up to her, hear her mouth go off and smash her face into the pavement.

Regardless of what happened prior to the video starting, it is obvious the teen who got her head shoved into the pavement was guilty of mouthing off only. If the officer was under "duress" then he is in the wrong job. What's going to happen when he's really in danger?

I grew up in urban NJ, just outside NYC. I'm quite aware of diversity and would appreciate you not assuming anything about me.

You don't have to agree with me. We're allowed to have different viewpoints. I would appreciate you respecting mine as I've always done yours.
