Cop Punches Special Needs Girl In The Face, Threatens Iraq Veteran For Recording It

In this most recent case of unnecessary force, the police boarded a Los Angeles bus and confronted a mentally challenged woman by name. After she shouted obscenities and refused to leave the bus, one of the officers punched the belligerent, but non-violent, woman across the face.

Afterwards, the man recording the scene, Jermaine Green, claims he was approached by the officer who then threatened to arrest him if he didn’t hand over the phone. Green, an Iraq and Afghanistan veteran with a clean record, refused and the officer was unable to confiscate the evidence. This time.

America............

Same shit happens everywhere, probably even worse.

Naturally, America gets all the attention due to extensive media coverage.

But yeah... seems a lot of cops are on edge these days. There have been a lot drastically overboard police reactions lately.

Exactly what I was talking about in the "Filming police in US" thread I made. Yet another cop threatening to arrest for filming in public but when you step up to them they back off. Meaning they really have no right to stop you and only do it just to avoid getting in trouble

The main issue I have with those guys in America is this tazer bullshit.They seem to tazer people for anything.......it's ridiculous.

What America? Doesn't this kind of shit ever happen elsewhere?

Like what for example? I remember seeing a guy tazered after he started running away after a hot police chase involving him...that's not extreme

This stuff is beyond ridiculous mate.....tasers aren't toys.

The cop tazed the guy when the guy was on the edge of a roof?

Cops do worse shit in other countries. Its the most thankless job and unrewarding job in my opinion.

Well, here effective police backfired

Above post preaches truth, I mean people going to work as cops/patrol (not detective) and especially street swat that beats people on protests, what drives them

At least in India you can give them 100 rupees (little more than $2) and bribe them off :lol!:

That's in the cities. If you go to the villages, it is a whole different story and it is scary...

Actually, today is the age when everything coming from the United States is meant to be the worst.

True, in most other countries we would've never heard about it. That's why we all think the Western States are so corrupt. Because they get caught.
