Cop needs to be fired.
The issue is this: the kid was neutralized at the point several closed fist punches were slammed into his face.
The cop was ON TOP holding him down by the throat with the weight of his body. The kid was done no matter how much he "struggled". Anyone who has actually fought knows that.
To me, flailing on someone in that position with concrete against the kids head is a sign of rage, not control.
I agree. He was in a position of control and repeatedly hit them much smaller student.
Too bad people here can't look at this objectively.

Have not seen the video but have been hearing about the incident. If the kid put his hands on the officer as he states to get him "out of our faces", then IMHO he instigated the incident. Just because he is a minor does not give him the right to try and nut up against an officer
All of this is going round and round. Like I said before, this guy never identified himself as a cop in the beginning. Regardless if 17 year old drank a handle of crown, Regardless if the punk kid was yelling shite, none of that justifies blows to the head like what happened. If the kid was going for the cops gun or fighting against him, I could understand but that was not the case. Even if he was doing this before the video happened, the officer had him down and neutralized the threat at the time the camera was rolling and the way he reached for his gun and started yelling back the frick up makes me question his integrity .
If any of you guys were hanging out at a parade and saw someone in getting agressive with your friends or family, you would have done the same thing. These cops did not identify themselves and were out looking for a reason. There are a hand full of cops that go out there this time of year as plain clothes officers who are looking for shite. However they always seem to pick on high school kids. They should focus on the real thugs and try to get them to engage them.
