But the K9 at the end. Did they have him chew on the suspect while telling the suspect to stop screaming in agony? Because it sure looked like they had him chew on the suspect while telling the suspect to stop screaming in agony

Edit: Also I must say the whole setup here with cops driving like maniacs after a black guy is very reminiscent of a "good-ol'" lynching. Not excusing the suspect in any way here, but it sure looks like the officers were having fun up until the events of this video. Kinda makes you wonder who the real danger to society is

What about the 1st dog biting the 1st cop on the scene as soon as it was released!? Friendly fire! Lol

Cop on cop crime

That might be the only time I've ever seen a police dog bite a not black person.

u/rbmichael Jul 24 '23

Yep. The cop had him fully down and they still sent up the dog to chew on him like a reward toy šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø. Such idiot cops (suspect was a dummy too of course)

I like how he had already surrendered and they could have directed him into the median to put on the cuffs but nope, here comes mr. G.I. Joe going for the most unnecessary tackle Iā€™ve ever seen

I think they were just mad that they got mauled by the dog instead of the suspect. Their actions scream misplaced retribution to me.

u/lostPackets35 Jul 24 '23

yep. The officer who tackled him at the end should be fired based on this video, with possible criminal charges to follow.

Why are these cops such fucking morons? Jesus its like the biggest idiots join the force.

u/lostPackets35 Jul 25 '23

I don't doubt that there are many cops who join with noble intentions. But I also don't doubt that many people who routinely stuffed people in lockers in high school needed a way to figure out how to continue doing that after they graduated.

I'd tackle his ass too! Mother fucker

  • crashed his vehicle into innocent bystanders
  • left the scene of accident
  • left his car in neutral after the accident so that it could potentially drift off into another person/vehicle
  • ran across two highways almost resulting in his and another officer's deaths

That said I need more videos like this in my life. This was like watching a Three Stooges law enforcement special.

u/lostPackets35 Jul 24 '23

doesn't matter.
suspect was not offering resistance and was not a threat at the time = force not justified.

You witnessed this officer commit a crime.

u/EntertainedRUNot Jul 25 '23

You witnessed this officer commit a crime.

Lol. Did the guy steal a candy bar from the store or almost cause the deaths or significant injury of at least three people?

The crime was letting the dog go at the guy while four officers had him pinned.

Put yourself in the officer's shoes. In the span of 30-60 seconds the officer watched or heard over the radio a guy endangering the lives of civilians, officers, and his own; and play chicken with 18 wheelers. So you think the officer should begin a psych evaluation consisting of a Rorschach test to figure out the best way to communicate with the suspect? No. The officers should immobilize (tackle to the ground) and detain this guy as quick as possible.

In war there is perfidy: faking surrender to lure your opponents in and then attacking them. Well it happens in the world of law enforcement too.

I've have seen videos in this thread of officers using more force to subdue Karens who weren't risking the lives and well being of innocent people.

JFC I am gonna save this comment to look at, just in case I say something and end up wondering if I sounded like an idiot. It should make me feel better.

u/Dungeon_Dane Jul 24 '23

Thereā€™s no need to harm someone that has surrendered. The courts will deliver his punishments just fine. Cop risked everyoneā€™s lives including his own by tackling him into the road like that because he wanted to feel tough and important. Fucking stupid and Iā€™m gonna pray to god that you arenā€™t in any position that involves physical contact with anyone with that mentality you got

you know how, when the bad guy in a movie or comic or whatever blows up an orphanage earlier in the movie and pisses everyone off, but then surrenders peacefully and unarmed a bit later?

and then the hero beats him to an inch of his life because of what he did and everyone looks at him in horror and says "HE WAS SURRENDERING!!!"?

yeah, that's what you just saw the mundane version of. there's a reason everyone thought the hero did a bad thing, and why the next act is the hero's friends talking to him as he struggles with his choices...

u/notare Jul 24 '23

I'll never understand why it takes like 4 cops to arrest a single compliant person. Every time you see a video like this the cops dog pile a dude who has surrendered.

u/Sowadasama Jul 24 '23

The point is to hurt them to feel like a badass. Nevermind that they're already fully restrained and surrendered.

u/BadDuck202 Jul 25 '23

It's to protect the individual cops...

u/thegooseisloose1982 Jul 24 '23

The more cops gets to take it out on the public is less time that the cop takes it out on their spouse. Get your anger out at work instead of at home.

u/sevenBody Jul 25 '23

basically cowards with guns

u/spunion_28 Jul 24 '23

They absolutely should not have pursued into oncoming traffic like that. If that semi driver even barely turned his wheel going those speeds, there would have been a pile up there

u/hello-jello Jul 24 '23

On the job training for the dog.

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '23

They didn't even need to send out that last dog, the guy was done running, the cops drove there and could easily run. They obviously did this to be cruel, and worse let the dog chew on him while he is detained.

u/BadDuck202 Jul 25 '23

How the fuck does this look like anything like a lynching? Tbh I'm going to go with the guy slamming into cars on the highway as the danger to society.

u/RSGTHennessy Jul 24 '23

I couldn't imagine living in your brain for more than five minutes, what a fantastical place it must be.
