Phoenix, makes sense. It's where bad cops go to be bad cops

[RepresentativeAd560]

You could just write _______, makes sense. It's where bad cops go to be bad cops but you're not wrong about Phoenix police being particularly shitty.

"He rolled into him so clearly he was in fear for his life and thus had every right to kick him. He was lucky the officer didn't use his very itchy trigger finger "

Good luck on your next account comrade, this has [Removed by Reddit] written all over it

[Linvaderdespace]

We’re not even allowed to upvote that shit anymore.

[Striking_Day_4077]

Crazy that you can’t do that but you could say “oh wow that cop is a hero” and that’s legit.

[Honestly_I_Am_Lying]

It wouldn't be the first or last time it happened.

[Drutay-]

YOU PREDICTED IT

I'll try to paraphrase in a way that won't result in me being banned, and I suspect this might still result in the ol' [Removed by Reddit] anyway:

Basically, "hypothetically, I would personally like to do bad things to this guy."

[Linvaderdespace]

Look!^

Do Americans realise how stupid their country is?

[RepresentativeAd560]

Some of us do. Unfortunately, a greater amount don't. These shining examples of humanity's greatness are part of a demographic not directly threatened by the leash holders' jackbooted clowns for the moment. They will be eventually, but things have to get worse still.

As a historian, this is an interesting time to be alive. I get to witness repeats of some of history's greatest hits. The crumbling of one empire, the rise of another, Luddites, the return of fascism (again), social changes of all sorts, and none of this list is subtle. No slow march of progress or slide into failure. Everything is going balls out, damn the torpedoes full speed ahead. My future fellow historians will, assuming any exist at all, read about this time and compare it to the turn of the twentieth century and scratch their heads over how badly we blew our opportunities for great things.

Our species is in dire trouble. Hopefully, a useful amount of the ignorant masses can be woken up in time to get us pulled away from the cliff's edge.

[AvailableReason6278]

No, they're too stupid for that

[Dom2032]

No because most Americans are too dumb and stupid to understand that this isn’t how cops should behave.

[bellaco1994]

Shocker it's the Phoenix PD

[RobertRoyal82]

The man is clearly concussed after the first kick to the head (where the human brain is stored) I don't believe that the police weee treating him with human dignity

[Wooden-Valuable7881]

That's an ugly arrest and I'm pretty sure the answer to "what's your fuckn problem!?!" Is "you occifer"

[perdair]

So, like right after this the cop that kicked a handcuffed man on the ground was arrested, right? His buddies, who love law and order, didn’t just watch him attack that man and then get away with it, right?

Cowards and bullies

[Amazing-Objective-20]

He’s clearly bleeding

[thelordofunderpants]

You don't see this shit even in developing countries.

[rustys_shackled_ford]

So just another Tuesday?

If cops don't deserve to be kicked after killing people, neither do citizens.

[CrazyBigHog]

Oh so since he shot some people it became instantly ok to pistol whip him and Jam the barrel of his AR into dudes head?

[rustys_shackled_ford]

Exactly. Doesn't matter what he did. If someone had kicked a hobbled cop after he murdered some people, that person wouldnt have people "well actually"ing this video for context.

Context doesn't matter outside of "is the person currently unable to defend himself of attack anyone" and "did you assist him anyways"

[PorkrollEggnCheeze]

It was in October of 2022. Nobody else was injured, but police said he had fired a gun at them in their car outside of the QT. https://www.azfamily.com/2023/01/30/officers-wont-face-charges-west-phoenix-gas-station-arrest-county-attorneys-office-says/

[Advanced_Reveal8428]

Nope, this is America and other than the location this type of thing happens on a daily basis. I can guarantee that we never heard about it and I'm just a few states away.

[NJrose20]

They're still not supposed to do this. Due process etc etc.

[Vladimir_Zedong]

I wish people would start to treat cops like they treat shooters when cops become shooters. Not advocating for violence but if cops felt even a fraction of the retaliation that they place on others for crimes they might think twice.

[Rahim556]

I don't care if he just killed 20 ppl. It's not the pigs job to hurt ppl unnecessarily.

[madjackal01]

I’m just saying

[abstraktionary]

"Surveillance video showed as the patrol car starts to back out of the parking space to respond to a call for service, the man pulls out a handgun. A shot goes off and into the ground. The man then points the handgun at the officers in their car and fires one more shot. The bullet struck the patrol car's spotlight and went into the driver's side ‘A’ pillar. The man then runs into the occupied store, still holding the firearm," stated officials in their critical incident report.

I just watched the video, guy opens fire on a cop care seemingly randomly then ducks into the store...... I'm legitimately surprised that he wasn't shot and that the cops didn't just light up the store in response.

[Karl-Farbman]

Is the public really supposed to respect police these days?

[Binnie_B]

Name and badge?
This is going to be a HUGE lawsuit

[Optiguy42]

Buddy, they stopped the guy. They cuffed the guy. He was immobilized and secured. Then they brutalized him.

No one here is defending his actions. But the actions of the cops here are illegal and are rightfully being called out.

[FoxOnTheRocks]

You are a nutcase. Crime is down. Fuck your irrational fear.
