All you said means nothing, I'm not sure if your bias is clouding your vision or I'm watching the wrong video of a guy that gets up in an officer's (or whatever he is) face and gets met with a reasonable level of force, if not a little less.
You're an absolute moron if that's how you think the world works Vermi. A person CANNOT charge a peace officer in an assaultive manner and expect them to just back up and go away.
If you think what went down in this video is appropriate, then I wish you'd never become a police officer and you are part of what's wrong with the law enforcement in this country. Your job is also to protect people man, not just to arrest people. That guy had no fucking weapon. Can you honestly tell me he posed any real threat to those 20+ officers who had two K-9's and 20+ firearms? The reality is what I see all the time in law enforcement. They come in with this billy bad ass military mindset that people WILL listen to them or they WILL suffer their wrath. YOU WILL COMPLY, right Anti-209
So in your opinion the cops (or whatever the hell they are) should just leave and forfeit their jobs? They're there to do a job and people don't like it. They are met with a lot of verbal noncompliance. They make a determination that all the people screaming and shouting are getting each other riled up. They attempt to issue commands to control the masses to allow them to continue to peacefully assemble (AKA do their job). People ignore their commands, which they have a legal right to make because the "peaceful" assembly is escalating. They are met with assaultive behavior, and use an appropriate amount of force.
In the real world Vermi, someone charges a cop while shouting, with clenched fists, staring at him, and ignoring all of his commands. He's gonna go to the ground 9/10 times. I think the fact that there were so many people and cameras rolling that the initial officer didn't do anything until he kicked the dog.
I don't think he felt threatened at all. I think him and his buddies were simply angry because that guy wasn't doing as he was being ordered to do and move his ATV.
No one gives a shit what you think at this point because you're so far out in left field. Although I'm sure everyone here thinks you're the expert for telling these guys how to do their jobs. I suppose all the officers took a step back because he was getting a better position to deploy his TASER...haha
I also have another question for you. How come a DIFFERENT officer from the one the man was approaching sicked the dog on him. The confrontation was between the man and an officer who had his tazer drawn already. If the man with the tazer felt threatened enough to resort to violence, why didn't he simply issue the man a warning or two (I'm going to taze your ass if you don't get out of my face) and then act on that warning if the man didn't back up?
I explained this above.
Re: your last question, I already answered it in my post, but you omitted it from the quote. You tell me, you're a cop. If you responded to a call and I said well, I told the guy to move his quad and he got angry. So he started yelling at me and pointing and moved toward me, to within about 4 feet. I felt threatened at that point (even though me and my 20 friends standing around have sidearms on our hip and he doesn't), so I sicked my 100 lb trained attack dog on him. He kicked my dog, so I tazered him. Who would go to jail? If he was black, he might.
Happens every day dude, I don't understand what you think cops are supposed to do...The guy that committed the crime would go to jail, and the peace officer would go to the next call.
No offense Vermi, but you're a dip shit. Haha, I like you but you're misinformed and ignorant when it comes to this topic. Everything you're bringing into question was good to go in a court of law. The fact that there's 20 armed officers theres means to you that people can get more out of hand than they normally would? When you grab a hold of reality, let me know, then we can debate.
