Well even if you're a troll I have to agree with you 100% on this post... and WTF does the OP have to do with Rodney King?

I don't really care what the guy did. He obviously didn't do anything too bad if they dismissed the charges against him.

My opinion merely comes from the fact that in a situation where someone is being arrested, the police officers job is not to punish but rather to take custody, and nothing more.
There is no such thing as a justified beating by the police. If they can't keep their cool better than that, they shouldn't be cops.

Taking custody is not four officers kicking and hitting and tazing someone who is already down and obviously already at their mercy.

What that video shows, are mad cops taking out their aggression on a suspect.



BTW, what does this have to do with Rodney King? Are you saying that because you think he got what he deserved that the police should treat everyone that way, or what? More group crap?

Rodney didn't deserve what he got, either. Take into custody never should mean beat the crap out of someone.
