Hey, how about deterrence. Treat corrupt and violent police officers the way corrupt public officials (not to mention bankers, CEOs, lobbyists, executives, etc.) SHOULD be treated. Seize their assets including family gifts, give them a very speedy and public trial and two appeals upon a guilty verdict. Then after two years, take them out back, line them up against the wall, and shoot them. Watch how quickly police brutality ends.

I know that but we don't know what the man was thinking while this was happening.

what could he have been thinking to justify being beat while on the ground?
Maybe he thought something like "Man, Michael Bay really is a cinematic genius", what is a psychic Policeman supposed to do?
Not guilty!
Originally posted by Grate the VrayaWhat they need to do is have them take a psychological evaluation as part of their employment requirements. There are many ill people out there with power issues and many of them are in high places or places of authority..
I think that all cities with records of police brutality need to make their employment policies a LOT stricter. Keep the police officers on their toes, and maybe the brutality will end.
Originally posted by Grate the VrayaAnd what better way to do that than by treating corrupt cops the same way we treat traitors and putting capital punishment on the table?

All large cities have always had this problem and always will. We are discussing human nature and conditioned thinking.

Oh I'm with you, somewhere between "Don't do that...please" and "If you do it we'll ****ing executed you, mother****er" seems reasonable.
Capital punishment is like anal sex. A lot of people are against it or don't like it, people want to ban it, there's some debates about whether it's painful or not, but when you do it right, it's great and everybody's happy.

Everybody alive anyways.

No, I'm not endorsing a trigger-happy Redneck mentality. I'm an immigrant, and I learned English, so that kid should have too.Besides, the police were responding to a break-in...so then they open the door to find some guy hiding under a blanket. He could have been armed.
There was no break in. Literally the only thing he did "wrong" was not speaking english. Are you honestly supporting that the police can taze anyone they meet who doesn't speak english? This is a beyond absurd notion.
Other actions taken within the last couple years: tazing nonviolent protesters, tazing people who had already given up, tazing an autistic kid who was basically doing nothing at all. Its not like it was some mistake, the police take that as a default reaction to any situation they enter.
