I noticed the pig comments, yet they wonder why they work a "thankless" job, and are losing support from the people.

Hey lets play what's that word?

____ the police!!

I've known some good cops, but I've known some very bad ones. Let this be a lesson.

If you don't know the cop and find yourself in such a situation, find a way to get far from the situation without arousing suspicion. Cops say their job is dangerous but it is far more dangerous to be a citizen in meeting a cop.

If not for the video that kid would not only had thousands in hospital bills and possible permanent injuries, but he'd also have thousands in lawyer's fees, jail time and a felony record that would influence his ability to get a job, buy a gun, etc.

Most cops maybe good, but why play the percentages? Besides the "good ones" will side with the bad ones. Just get far from the situation as safely as possible and film if you can from a place they won't see you. You may save someone else's life too.

It's hilarious because he was calling his daddy to get OUT of trouble. Funny how the cop's kid knows his daddy had a get out of jail free card in his pocket.

I guess the cop on the scene was roid raging and decided to let him have one in the mouth. As much as I hate the surveillance cameras, I'm glad when it catches thugs.
