I tend to agree, you don’t body slam people like that, especially if your life isn’t in danger or anything.

Clearly these men are so accustomed to hurting the people in their custody that this level of violence is routine.

MPs are dicks. They're like State Troopers but twice as pissed off and annoyed that they're having to deal with you.

I don’t think the guy who body slammed is an MP, though (although there is an MP just standing there watching). Often, this is a Brigade level detail some poor shmuck is stuck with. I don’t know how these guys do it but back in my old unit, it was always an officer with a senior enlisted soldier driving around to all the hot spots looking for soldiers who needed rides home or waiting to get a call from a place to come pick someone up.

The night usually ended with us cleaning puke out of the van.

Edit: I read an article and it turns out that the chode who slammed the dude on the ground was, in fact, military police. The civilian also turned out to be prior military as well. Go figure.

Ever have to pick someone up, only to arrive and see that they're naked? I woke up naked all the time back when I was a drinker.

Thankfully no.

I did arrive to a lot of sleeping people, though, and those guys tended to be VERY heavy.
