re: Updated OP Video of Tuscaloosa PD using excessive force on UA students

Well Mike slocum the alabama hammer advertisments were everywhere at the stadium maybe they can give him a call

I'd have to guess a nice federal lawsuit would end up having Tuscaloosa pay out of the arse. They wouldn't give a frick about some bullshite state law.

These types of videos should never be shocking to anyone. We give power and weapons to statistically very low IQ individuals. Dumb people will do dumb shite, shocking I know. That is why the best thing you can do is to comply and fight your battle in court where the higher IQ individuals are.

Not a cop hater, but I am a Bama hater. And I say frick those cops.

Just going by what we see in the lead up videos the kids had every right at that point to shut the door. A noise complaint doesn't give a cop reason to enter the house (essentially what he was doing by refusing to get out of the doorway), especially since they had obviously complied and turned the music off. If he had a reason to arrest or detain them then he wasn't showing it and should have just let them shut the door and come back with a warrant.

The one cop standing in the door was trying to act like some big hard authority by refusing to move so he could show these punk kids whos boss. When they started to shut the door it's clear he acted in retaltion to precieved distespect and everything after looked like the cops brought tazers and batons to a bar fight.

I couldn't imagine dealing with snobby college kids who think they know everything on a daily basis. Talk about a crappy job

Any job where you have to interact with the public sucks. But you know that's how it is, so you don't take it personally and you just do your job. I mean, I've never seen a video of a waitress or a shift manager at a department store beating up somebody that didn't show them enough respect.

Do we know who the students were yet? Any arrest reports?

The second video says a lot. The students are basically doing the job for the cop, by asking if the kid in question is under arrest or being detained, but the idiot cop is dumb enough to respond he is under arrest (under what grounds?), then proceeds to assault the kids on private property. TPD bought to get a house cleaning. It amazes me a cop could act that way with at least 3 camera phones on him.


ETA: After the 3rd video, seems obvious TPD is about to get nailed. The original cop reenters the residence, and the cop forcefully removes the girl who was not involved prior to him ripping her out. Wow. Hope those officers are properly removed from the force, and brought to trial for such ludicrous behavior behind the badge.

Had some cops come to my house in college because our alcoholic, bat-shite crazy neighbor called the cops on me and my two roommates. We had no music on or anything. We were just playing video games. Cops came and pulled me out of the house, slammed me on a cop car, handcuffed me and put me in the back of a cop car. Threatened to take me to jail for resisting arrest (which I didn't, just didn't want my face slammed on the hood of a cop car. Plus I just had shoulder surgery.

It was just a couple of young cops looking to start some shite and abuse their authority. Ended up giving a ticket for noise complaint and leaving. Cops are douche bags to everyone. Not just black people.
