I think it has absolutely nothing to do with Nissan cars.

[MikeisNissan]

wtf is with the killings and madmen on the lam this week. im not leaving my house :(

[shmiddy]

i saw this video yesterday. they gave 'em an ass whopping

[Locko]

24 coppers against two dude that park the car calmly after the chase... WTF they should all be expulsed!

[OBEEWON]

This happens on the daily. They got footage this time, bet money they all keep thier jobs. At least it wasn't another Bell case, or Amadu.

They did shoot and kill a fellow officer (one of the suspects' accomplices anyways), so I'm sure that played into it.

No he didnt. The officer that was killed a day earlier was an unrelated event.

Are you sure? Good Morning America was trying to put a spin on it that both parties were associated.

EDIT nevermind, I was wrong. But still,
Police stopped the suspects' car while investigating a triple shooting Monday night. No weapons were found in the car or on the suspects, Ramsey said, but officers said they had seen them shoot three people on a drug corner moments earlier.The three suspects — Dwayne Dyches, Brian Hall and Pete Hopkins — were each charged with attempted murder in the shooting, police said.

Although, there were no weapons found in the car. I would think police would have seen them toss the guns.

[legacy927]

even though its wrong of what they did, but we would never know what really went down for them to kick the living shiet out of the perps..

i just like how some of them done kicking one guy, then runs to the next guy and beat them with the baton...

[Temple240]

Cool, once they get acquitted of all charges we can get to the rioting!

[flip3d]

Cops beating up black guys. What else is new?

[OBEEWON]

I dont care if they are guilty or innocent. People can mistake anyone for someone else. This means cops can pull anyone out of a car and beat thier grits and be like 'oops my bad, you looked like some dude that shot someone earlier, carry on.'


After the two shootings of officers this year cops in Tri state were extra joe, cats getting walkie talkied everywhere like mad.

[2ilvia]

the problem here is that anyone can become a cop, if govt. really cared about the public they would put them through much more vigorous testing, and would fire them for any little thing, and punish the officer/s as civiclians, then we wouldnt have these problems

so if these officers were to be tried as civilians, they would be screwed, assault/battery, attempted murder/ etc

but your govt. wants you dead and they know whats best so mosey on

[azndoc]

Geez that's nuts.

That's a shitload of cops out for just two guys.

I just heard on the radio yesterday on Kevin and Bean from a guy complaining about how people are asshole's in Philly.

Guess he was right.

[innovation]

I'm a LA county sheriff, and while I havent seen anything that bad, I can first hand say that police / sheriff are corrupt. It's like there is two different types of people who are cops, Good and Bad. No in between

[TheWolf]

Cops beating up black guys who run from the cops. What else is new?

Fixed.


alot has to go down for 5 squad cars 12 cops and a news chopper to arrive on the scene. Within 50 seconds of the stop another 6 police show up. I'm sure the previous 8 minutes of footage might reveal something. that doesn't justify the beating but I'm absolutely sure that this was not a random traffic stop where he pulled over 10 seconds after the lights came on.

[WERDdabuilder]

good ol' baton therapy.

[TiNMAN]

we gotta add some zilvia commentary to that video :Ownedd:

[gabe30]
