Cop tries choking to get evidence that doesn't exist.

video

The people at StoptheDrugWar.com posted this news report regarding a police officer who arrested man who was believed, by the officer to have marijuana. The cop couldn't find the marijuana so he then assumed the man was swallowing it. To prevent this the officer then began chocking the man, who was restrained in handcuffs and who didn't try to fight or resist in any way. "

9. Oh, I see.

Sad story.

That happens here, too - had a guy shot holding a bottle, I believe, few years back. In another one, a girl died while in police custody who had been injured in a car accident, but didn't get treatment because she was a drunk driver. Liver laceration - died in jail. Seems like things like this are happening all over.

6. No. It's just about some handcuffed guy they choked.

Didja read the article at the link?

Didja read the part about the reaction of the "good" cops?

Didja?

7. Nah. "Good cop" is an oxymoron - no point in reading after that point.

EDIT: I just listened to the newscast on ur link.

4. Oh the Humanity.....People have Pot..... Kill Them...

Welcome to St. Paul Minnesota. Have a "Bic" lighter? You are a 'terrorist'. Have an opposing political viewpoint that you want to distribute on a flyer? Forgetaboutit. When you are in Minnesota, you WILL walk the Corporate Fascist line or we beat you to death.

5. The assholes who defend it never call it that. They just say, "must of had it coming"

or "the cops are stressed." That kind of crap.

10. or that if you criticize cops you defend violent criminals, support lawlessness in the streets,

rape grannies, stomp kittens, and are probably personally running an international drug cartel.
