Re: Cop beatdown in Philly....

Philly is having all sorts of problems at this point..

How freaking idiotic do you have to be to straight pull some young dudes out of a car and lay a smackdown when a damn helicopter is hovering right above you?? I know it's probably not the best smiley to use but I was

when I first saw this.

Re: Cop beatdown in Philly....

The 3 suspect were just witnessed in a triple shooting, fled the scene and cops were in immediate pursuit. These men were not innocent. Given that a cop was just murdered in the city and police weren't taking any chances. I say good that made sure none of them had a chance to do anything. Some may say it was excessive, but that scum got what they deserved. If they stopped when police said halt instead of jumping into a car and fleeing the scene being armed suspects, they definately wouldn't have received a beating.

I wouldn't be surprised if one or all of the young men were directly involved in that triple shooting.. but this just doesn't look good at all. What if one of those three wasn't involved in the shooting? Seems like everyone in the vehicle caught an excessive beatdown.

exactly

...

honestly, i don't have a problem with it.

i'm so sick and tired of crooks and gangs/gang members it's ridiculous. white, black, hispanic, asian, it doesn't matter so don't think i'm turning this into a racial thing. and speaking of that, i think one of the things that annoys me as much as anything is (espcially) african american people complaining that this always happens to african americans and that the jails are full of african americans and blah blah blah... well, that's because most of the crimes in our country and committed by african americans, simple as that. but back on track with this video.. i'm tired of these crooks/gang members/bad guys that break all these laws and then when they see the cops on their tail they take off (on foot or in car) and then when the cops finally catch up with them they try and act all defenseless and just lay down on the ground like big babies. you don't run if you're innocent. period. that just pisses me off.. and why should police care if this affects their reputation? i mean, you think most people in these areas respect the police? no. and that's not because of stuff like this, if this didn't happen people still wouldn't respect the police. you have all these people (and again it's often gang members and/or african americans or hispanics) that try and break all these laws behind cops backs, talk about how bad cops are for this world, try to start fights with cops, spit on cops, call the cops every name in the book, and if they get the chance they'll try and kill the cop(s) from time to time. i'm often surprised when you see those COPS videos that the cops are as patient as they are. Over half the time it seems like the person being arrested is spitting on the cop, calling the cop every name they can think of, trying to bite/kick/punch (aka. resisting arrest) toward the cop... yeah that would piss me off too. They break all these laws and then wonder why they're being arrested and if they're a person of color (whites may do it but i've never seen one) they always have that "race card" waiting right there to pull it at their earliest convenience. So I know people won't like this post and it may get deleted but I'm speaking my mind because I'm just sick and tired with the people/trends of today doing this kind of stuff. To prevent confusion, since I don't think I've clarified, I do not agree or condone what the cops did, but I do not have a major problem with it.

End Rant

Re: Cop beatdown in Philly....

Pardon a little bit of anger I hold, but I live in Philly and I am tired of seeing criminals walk free, now theses suspects who were witnessed shooting someone and chased from the scene by cops are getting pity. **** THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You don't run from the cops if you are innocent. and you don't appear desperate if you have a gun if you value your well being. We have a rising murder rate and had these punks not been such terrible shots that number would have risen by 3 maybe even more. Meanwhile innocents are robbed of money property and piece of mind in their neighborhoods as these criminals run rampant.

Re: Cop beatdown in Philly....

The cops definitely should have asked them nicely to get out the car. Then maybe they could have all sat on the curb together and have a Coca-Cola and they could have talked it all out.

Re: Cop beatdown in Philly....

The problem is that even if those guys who got beaten down were ivolved in the shooting, the fact that those cops used unnecessarily violence to arrest them, might get them free. Who knows...

That's the only problem I have with it. Of course, if these guys were just involved with shooting someone, I don't see it as excessive violence. They're lucky they didn't get shot by each one of those cops.

you want my honest opinion?

Thats the risk you take when you hang with people involved with drugs and guns, guilt by association, guess what, if you knew it was gonna happen but didnt do anything to stop it, it call accessory and you can see serious jail time. seriously anyone not involved would have had to already been in the car (getaway driver but that would mean he was involved) if you say the local story, the men were under police surveillance. fired shots hitting 3 other individuals, fled the scene and police were immediately giving chase. seeing as they are immediately giving chase, there is no chance that anyone in the car was not involved. they deserved the beatdown, and more jailtime than these pathetic judges in this city are gonna give them.

Re: Cop beatdown in Philly....

They obviously needed to use force... but there's one cop in there running around kicking two guys... after the guy is being held down by at least 3 other guys.

Re: Cop beatdown in Philly....

You've gotta love it. Not even a week after a police officer is gunned down in the line of duty by some two-bit hoodlum, the Mayor and Police Commissioner of that same city are being run through the meat grinder on CNN and Good Morning America by people accusing them of unfair treatment of more two-bit hoodlums.

**** that.
