You'd think by now the police would remember those video cams before they work somebody over.

As disgusting as he/she/it is, he/she/it did not deserved to be beaten like that.
Hope the cop gets fired from the force.

Once again, the way I see headlines is more interesting than the actual headlines.
I saw it this way:

What kind of response is that? Your opinion of the persons sexuality is irrelevant. This issue here is one of abuse of power. Your comment is akin to saying “As _____ (fill in the blank) as the Jews were, they didn't deserve to be gassed in ovens”. I'm not equating the two groups but am suggesting that your disclaimer is pathetic.

"...District Attorney's office, the latter of which dropped all charges against Johnson" Pretty much sums up where we are at this stage. And people believe they still have rights under the Constitution......

"...Hope the cop gets fired from the force."This cop and every cop present who did nothing to stop him should all be in jail with a girlfriend named Bubba. This is disgusting behavior from our Law Enforcement Officers.

Why aren't these two in jail? The police have a union that politicians count on supporting them every election.
IF the police really wanted to condemn such actions, they would. They wouldn't stand with the union demanding that the people continue to draw pay. They would report corrupt cops. They wouldn't hold their tongues.
They remind me a lot of the passive support moderate muslims have for Islamic terrorists.

Wonder how many jackbots will say the beatdown was deserved?
Charge Officer Friendly with Assault with a Deadly Weapon, and if the DA can swing it, Attempted Murder and put this violently insane threat to society in the deepest hole you can find for the next 18-20 years. No parole.
But I figure he skates with just a slap on the wrist and is picked up by another department within a couple weeks.

You got that right. The LEOs should know where to illegally beat the tar out of someone for no reason, without getting caught.

I wonder what was on the tape they are not talking about. The DA around here is usually quick to jump on a case against the police. (I live in Memphis.)

After you have worked under the cams for awhile people tend to forget they are there. It looks like Memphis is on the road to a big payout.

If we fired all of the a-hole cops we wouldn't have a police force left.
And that would be a good thing. . .
