Interesting turn of events for a decen LEO who lost his cool (Cant blame him) and kicked the crap out of a 17 year old.

Well, I think I would "snap" too if someone tried to spit on me.

I dont see anything wrong with kicking the kids butt. You want to play badass and spit on the cop, be prepared to accept the prize that comes with it.

Yep, nothing quite like a police state where they act as legislator, judge, jury, and executioner.

Mess with a cop and you deserve what you get.

LEO shouldn't have been fired over one incident, few weeks at a desk and some counciling yes, glad he got a new job.

 

[MarkM]

Should have punched the kid in the mouth.

 

[Fletch]

He needs to find a new line of work.

I know how personal responsibility escapes people like you and the up standing citizen that spit on the officer, I get it, I understand where you all come from.

Is that one of the roofers you hired to do your roof?

 

[downzero]

He needs to find a new line of work.

Agreed. That's the real problem with these sorts of incidents. Nobody wants to tell a man that he needs to find another job, but that's exactly what has to happen.

Someone who pulls stunts like this shouldn't be counseled or taken off the street for a few days. They should be fired and never allowed to have a badge again, as well as have criminal charges filed.

If you or I did that to someone, we'd be in jail. This guy gets a free pass because he's a cop.

Communism was a great thing, huh

Execuse me if I think every little gangster deserves what they get.
Not being a "gangster err a" I dont see anything wrong with the bad guy getting his rear kicked.

When I think about all the people

killed
raped
robbed
terrorized
social/community destruction

kids like the one in the video cause, I dont feel the least bit sorry.
But hey, I've also had great experiences with the LEO I've been in contact with, so no biggy.



What comes first the Law breaker or police brutality against criminals?

Getting spit on is assault and you can protect yourself too.

Personal responsibility certainly seems to have escaped the pro-government cheerleaders here. I'm trying to imagine the consequences of my laying a beatdown on a teenager for spitting on me, and somehow I doubt it would stop at merely losing my job for a little while.

Only with a reasonable level of force. Beating the hell out of someone who's handcuffed is not reasonable, and I sure as hell wouldn't want to take my chances trying to convince a jury that it is.

**** cops like him

The beat down was the effect of the spitting. Jr. didnt think it through before he did it. In my book Im ok with you or anyone else handing out the beatdown.

Spitting on someone is assault. When it is done to a LEO it becomes battery and is a class D felony if the person knowingly has HIV it becomes a class C felony.

I am not a LEO but if someone spits on me or uses any other bodily fluid to assault me we are going to have major problems I will defend myself. I would think that a LEO could defend himself when he/she is assaulted by a criminal the same as anyone else.

I'm not, and I doubt I could find a whole jury who would be. Even the cop says he screwed up.

The first kick was enough. Or the first slap upside the head. I'm perfectly fine with that much as a response to spitting. But then the assault continues... and continues... It's egregious. It's unnecessary. It's excessive. Any fair-minded person should be able to see it that way.
