    That's America. And the hacker who brought the Big Red rape case to light faces 10 times as much prison time as the guys who raped a girl and shared it on Facebook.
    Damn, Mellancamp certainly was right

    Hundreds of Police Killings Are Uncounted in Federal Stats
    FBI Data Differs from Local Counts on Justifiable Homicides
    When 24-year-old Albert Jermaine Payton wielded a knife in front of the police in this city’s southeast corner, officers opened fire and killed him.

    Yet according to national statistics intended to track police killings, Mr. Payton’s death in August 2012 never happened. It is one of hundreds of homicides by law-enforcement agencies between 2007 and 2012 that aren’t included in records kept by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

    A Wall Street Journal analysis of the latest data from 105 of the country’s largest police agencies found more than 550 police killings during those years were missing from the national tally or, in a few dozen cases, not attributed to the agency involved. The result: It is nearly impossible to determine how many people are killed by the police each year.

    That's just ridiculous.....I mean that looks like something from the wrestling world not police enforcement. So is there a follow up to this video story?

    The other cop raised the guys arm over his head and let's go, it drops to the floor. He raises it agiain, it drops to the floor, he raised it a third time and drops it. It fell but right before it hit the floor, it stops. He holds it for a second. The crowd starts to cheer. The suspect begins to pump his arms. He stands up and breaks free of the choke hold, turns around and body slams the cop and pins him.


    So the follow up is that he won the intercontinental championship.

    Are you serious....if a suspect is handcuffed with his hands behind his back DOES NOT deserve this no matter what he did. Why would I say this because he can't defend himself...pretty EASY for that cop to choke the shit out him huh.

    What a world we live in....

    Half serious. I was responding to JC's sarcasm.

    With that said... did this guy just get caught beating his girlfriend, spitting on people, and sucker punching a cop? Did he just shoot somebody? If so... I'm not too concerned for the chokehold- he'd just be getting the beating he went and earned for himself in my opinion.

    He did. He was way ahead of his times.

    Good selection here, ocean. Really good.

    So you prefer a Judge Dredd style of policing? I don't. It is not the duty of police to punish, only to apprehend. If you bypass the right to a trial you give police open license for police brutality, and that is not a civilized way of doing business.
