Cop kicks cop in the head suspecting he's a suspect. Wait, what?!

Chokehold again?

 

[EdibleKnife]

Police brutality folding in on itself

 

[shadyspace]

The minimal effort of the kick combined with the sound of it is fucking hilarious.

 

[Infinite]

I said this before and I'll say it again. The last few months has been a race between gamers and the police to prove all the negative things everyone has been saying about them true.

 

[Kazerei]

Friendly fire

something something time is a flat circle.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

This is some ouroboros shit now.

 

[Speevy]

It was an accident. With the hood on, he mistakenly thought he was black.

 

[Christine]

How about not kicking people in the head? Have we tried that?

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Well, he had a 50/50 chance of kicking the right guy.

 

[The Faceless Master]

yoooo, punting people is proper police procedure?

 

[kai3345]

fuck that shithead in the white hoody

in addition to punting the other cop's skull he decks the dude they're arresting while he's already on the ground.

 

[sfedai0]

When keeping it violent goes wrong.

This is like when you find a Starbucks across the street from a Starbucks.

We is our own worst enemy.

 

[jamesinclair]

It's sad how the people of New York let themselves be terrorized by this gang.

 

[JDSN]

I love how meaningless and vacant "Stop resisting" comes off when they say it, like those seagulls from Finding Nemo that only know how say "MINE".

 

[ElectricKaibutsu]

"...stripped of his badge and gun."

They should take his boots too.

 

[StickSoldier]

What can they do though? Protests or something? They'd be free game for the NYPD

 

[Speevy]

When I was about 12, I spotted some guy playing football with the neighborhood children. He would either throw the ball to them so they could try to tag each other, or run to see if they could tackle him. During one play, the kids dogpiled him and everyone was laughing, piling on. I ran up and elbowed him like a professional wrestler. He was like "What the hell man?"

What the hell indeed.

 

[Ingueferroque]

Why would he even kick someone in the face like that when they're being held down?

 

[Perspicacity]

It's literally this: http://youtu.be/Nt6kKhlX8vU?t=11s

 

[JDSN]

Oh boy, Speevy is having a stroke.

 

[Cow Mengde]

I wonder how the NYPD will defend the cop who kick the cop in the head?

 

[Mesousa]

Mutiny on the Amistad. You have not lived until you have had some times upside your head though.

 

[Ingueferroque]

All this for someone who didn't want to pay the fare.. can you believe it?

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

I think from the video and reading the article,that the kick was accidental.

 

[Speevy]

Oh boy, Speevy is having a stroke.

That would imply that my brain was functioning to begin with.

 

[Skilotonn]

Saw this earlier today too.

Dumbass waddles right in and kicks him in the head, and still hits the actual suspect not long afterwards too. Even looks like he has his gun hanging out the back of his ass with no holster too.

 

[Ingueferroque]

I think from the video and reading the article,that the kick was accidental.

It was not. How can you even say that..

 

[JDSN]

The video it out of context and does not contain the part where they prepared that to prank people shooting the video.

$2.50 is serious business.

Billions stolen on wall street? Nothing to see.

 

[hipbabboom]

The same guy kicking the cop is also the same guy punching the suspect. What amazed me the most while watching him was just how comfortable he was doing it. In both cases, with an amazing degree of casualness, he would deliver his blows as the first act even before observing the situation. This is definitely not the first time that cop has done something like that.

The other sad thing is this whole "Stop resisting!" thing. It seems to be a code for police when they see one of their own doing dirt on a suspect. I'm of the mind they start yelling that to create an air of justified force when the force was unnecessary and almost always inappropriate.

Know your master.

 

[hipbabboom]

Sorry for the triple-post

 

[cameron]

It's bad enough to assault a suspect, but it's crazy that the plainclothes officer just imposed himself in the situation and couldn't be bothered to take a second to assess who was who. All reaction and zero sense, even when not under "threat".

The "stop resisting" is nice theatrics for the camera and witnesses.

 

[kame-sennin]

No means of self-defense. Guns (and pretty much all weapons) are virtually banned in the city. It's a full on police state.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

This is old I think, I read it on that Vice blog about police in America. The cop that kicked the other cop then punched the suspect. He got fired.

Not old old.

Thursday 10/23
A New York police officer has been stripped of his badge and gun following the emergence of a video showing him kicking another officer, having reportedly been aiming for an arrest suspect.

[CrimsonCommie]

He got fired for kicking another officer but if it was just the civilian he kicked he would probably still have his job

 

[rtcn63]

The cop saw through the cosplay.

 

[Mariolee]

Singularity is occuring.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

It was not. How can you even say that..

because it looked like he tried to rub the officer's head or something. sort of a half-assed apology.

 

[L4DANathan]

Singularity is occuring.

Join us.

Spoiler

Or we'll be forced to kick someone else in the head, instead of you.

 

[Jackben]

If only he had kicked the suspect in the head he might still have a job.

When I was about 12, I spotted some guy playing football with the neighborhood children. He would either throw the ball to them so they could try to tag each other, or run to see if they could tackle him. During one play, the kids dogpiled him and everyone was laughing, piling on.

What the hell indeed.

Well I'm convinced. Someone get this man a gun and a badge.

 

[stufte]

I guffawed.

 

[block tower]

double post.

 

[block tower]

bet the cop had blue balls after that kick..

Spoiler

 

[Bleepey]

Blue on blue violence.
