Baltimore city cop vs skateboard kid. v. cop gets suspended.

I particularly enjoyed watching the kids getting talked to like that. I am 50/50 on issues like these because this is not what law enforcement stands for. Law enforcement is for our protection and making sure laws are being followed, but there are also different importance between laws with different ways to react to them if they are being broken.

As a citizen I think we have rights to be able to disrespect law enforcement as long as its within the law, thats if you are willing to accept full punishment instead of a warning.

 
never said that.
but i also understand it is a cops duty to enforce the law, not try to act like a parental figure to "teach" respect to 14 year olds...

his job was to tell them to stop skating and make sure they left. if they resisted, they get arrested. not a ****ing choke hold.
Bingo!!!!

once the kid was disrespectful, right the citation or make the arrest and handle it that way.

 
denim, it could be worse - they could be on the Bush plan and have the state in billions of dollars deficit - wait a minute the last Governor of Maryland all ready did that. One fundamental accounting rule is missing - your debits and credits must match - when you continually take (tax credits) without giving (tax increases) you eventually end up with a deficit. Say like the $500 billion dollar deficit we as a nation currently have, but lets give more tax breaks to the rich and have the middle class people pay for it. When Clinton left office there was a SURPLUS of approx $400 billion, now there is a DEFICIT of $500 billion and our economy is in a recession and people want to continue with tax cuts and tax rebates that just added another $130 billion to the deficit. I know, Clinton was responsible for the recession of 2001, but good ole Bush sure did use up that SURPLUS to get out of it didn't he, what does the next President have to work with - a DEFICIT of $500 billion. Get your mind right bro.
Never did I address the national issues. The only reference about Clinton, is the way Dixon and O'Malley, lied their face off to get into office. O'Malley used Baltimore as a launching platform, and he is in the midst of doing the same thing to MD. O'Malley is taxing everything he can find, not to mention he held the "emergency session" under illegal terms. I hope the lawsuit goes through and these out hand taxes are pulled.

 

Please don't tell me to get my mind right. I understand what you are after, but the City of Baltimore and State of MD is worse off since O'Malley has been in power. I have a few friends who are county police officers and I hear how vital equipment is in need of repair or replacement, while the money is needed is approaited else where. In addition to the negative atomsphere they start out there day everyday in. They do not deserve it and work hard to serve the public. To stay on topic, the fact remains if the kid was not breaking the law and not talking back to the cop there would never be a problem. People easily forget the pressure that these officers are under everyday at their job. I know I would not want to do it, nor do I have the temperment to.

 
Cops are degrading pieces of shit in the first place, the yelling because he is on a power trip is nothing new. I have an issue with the cop physically throwing the kid down when he did not try to run or anything.

Let me ask you this, if the kid were to push the cop down what would happen? He would be in all kinds of shit and have an A&B on his record. If the kid was running I would say fine but he was just kind of standing there.

Hopefully they sue and the big gets a nice suspension for that, it's a new age where almost anyone can afford a camera time to stop abusing your powers or pay the price.

Yeah, kind of yes an no. Its their duty to represent a function of government, and when not forced to, they should not act in such a manner. Kind of when a dmv woker seems acts like she/he is working against you. Everyone hates it but it still happens.
