The cops that beat him to death should be executed.

Here's the video for those who haven't seen the heinous crime committed by these scum-fucking-bag pigs who will burn in hell:

Wow! That's the first time I've seen that video. Unbelievable! I can't believe it took half the police department to restrain that one, skinny man!

And that one cop, the one who was swinging his baton from the beginning, was itching for a fight - he even threatened the man as he was complying with his orders to put his hands on his knees by saying "See my fist? I'm getting ready to fuck you up." Unreal!

"Lean back. touch your knees. Lean forward. I told you to lean back!"

He was fucking with the mentally ill guy that he had already decided he was going to "fuck up".

I'd not feel bad, nor would I intervene if I saw somebody smashing this cop with a mace until he was dead. There's no more vile form of life on this planet than bullies like this who pick on the weak and/or mentally ill. That's OK, I believe Hell is on Earth and these scumbag cops will exist there until their miserable lives eventually end.

Oh. My. God! Absolutely horrible.

I remember this. Just unconscienable.

My gawd that poor man. I hope those cops get put away forever. I can't watch the video tonight, may try later.

Quote:Officer Manuel Ramos was charged with one count of second-degree murder and one count of involuntary manslaughter; Corporal Jay Cicinelli was charged with one count of involuntary manslaughter and one count of excessive force.[4][6]

The officers then repeatedly shocked Thomas with Tasers, beat him with the butts of the Tasers and flashlights, and slammed him into the ground.[10] A video of the event surfaced, and Thomas can be heard repeatedly screaming in pain while officers tasered him (up to five times according to a witness statement) in the video, and screaming "Dad! Dad!".[11] Six officers were involved in subduing Thomas, who was unarmed and had a history of mental illness. Thomas was initially taken to St. Jude Medical Center in Fullerton but was transferred immediately to the UC Irvine Medical Center with severe injuries to his head, face, and neck.[12]

Absolutely hideous! We should hold law enforcement to a higher standard of conduct. It is sad that we do not. Assaults against law enforcement are punished more severely than against ordinary people. Misconduct by law enforcement should be punished even MORE severely because they hold the public trust.

I totally agree. If they have a temper problem they don't belong in power.

When your chest is being compressed to the point that you can't breathe, just as with waterboarding, the body's reaction is to thrash in an effort to free itself from the offending obstruction.

Lifeguards who rescue drowning victims know this, but apparently these pigs are too stupid to realize that they can order a person who can't breathe to go limp all they want, but IT IS PHYSIOLOGICALLY IMPOSSIBLE.

Or more likely, they just didn't give a shit and wanted to get their beat down on.

fuckers

Try them, convict them, take them to prison among the general population. Announce they are police officers and their crime. Let nature take it's course.

[Ikonoklast]

Murderers.

If that was ever done to one of mine, there would be no place on this planet safe for them.

I wouldn't care if it took me every minute remaining of my life, and every red cent I had.


Fucking bastards.
