I taught this was a “car”related site
You get that there is a “Bikers” community on this “car” related site. But if that isn’t enough, it seemed the cop in this video was in-fact driving a car.
Police nowadays. You should be fired for a) running into a man instead of turning on your lights and b) kicking him in the chest and drawing a gun(while holding it in a improper and reckless way) on a man who was following your commands. But no he doesn’t get fired or suspended but PROMOTED.
Sounds like a crock of poo pudding to me
It is true not all police are bad. In my own experience I have always have the police the respect they deserve and they have been helpful and reasonable with me. The bad ones should be sought out and taken off the job.
The biker should have gotten a ticket or some form of punishment. But the officer seems to have let his anger get the best of him and because of his actions I believe the officer should get the punishment. Drop the charges on the biker. And let him keep his 180k.
In Europe (atleast where I live) I can imagine how this guy would get fine and that is it. No violence against someone who disobeyed the rules in nonviolent way. There is even a video from Germany when some biker did a wheelie and they just let him go with a warning, I can imagine how these tuff guys would shoot him or something. (basicaly) Police is here to help and serve to people, but I can´t imagine this officer to help anyone.
He made such a stupid invalid excuse, muscles so called ‘fired’, was he posessed or something where he can’t even stop himself from kicking a guy who was clearly following instructions.
Latter promoted to captain after this happened. I bet his wife does not say no to him often :s
should have been fired. ass hat.
This cop deserves any punishment he recieves. Not just for awfully mistreating this biker, but also for making cops look bad! Every cop I’ve interacted with, including the one that pulled me over the only time I’ve been pulled over, has been really cool. It only takes a few of these bad cops to ruin it for the rest.
