A Metro passenger used his cell phone's video camera to capture a confrontation between a woman and two LA County sheriff's deputies on a bus in Bellflower.
This story is one more of a growing list I've read on FR in communities where cops commit murder and get away with it. The Costco shooting in Las Vegas in 2010; the beating death of a homeless nut in Fullerton, So Cal; no-knock raids in circumstances where any sane citizen would defend himself at such aggressive home invaders; and at least three high-speed car chases that ended with the cops opening fire and killing the drivers. One of then was of a 19-year old kid who'd had a tiff with his dad and drove off in his dad's worktruck. Dad called the cops to try to teach him a lesson, kid freaked out and ran, and the cops chased him like a bunch of dogs chasing a cat running across a field. Despite being asked to back off twice by dispatch, they chased him recklessly, rammed him, and shot him. It's on dash cam.
That one made me see so red I entertained Tom Clancy-type ideas as to meting out justice. As a Christian, I'm torn. So many stories that old men should have been remiscing about 50 years from now, "Remember when I was a wild kid and tried to outrun the cops, man I was stupid!" to ... a life taken by murder, IMO, and thugs with so little regard for the sanctity of human life, are charged with "protecting" it.

No yelling, nobody died.
Could you tell, was it an actual photo, or the 70s version of a PhotoShop?
Odd how you get "beat almost to death" out of my post of saying I would punch someone for spitting on me. Please don't post to me again. TIA.
Getting spit on is not worth dying for, nor is it worth killing for.
It doesn't work all that well on schizophrenics either.
One of the cops who did this:
was caught on video putting on rubber gloves in front of Kelly, who was handcuffed and sitting on the curb, and telling him, "See these hands? These hands are going to f*** you up!"
Two cops acquitted, one charges dropped.
Kelly died.
There were posters who defended the Fullerton PD when this first went down.
Wow, that was amazing. I was getting impatient just looking at it (I was thinking, what if they each had a bag of marbles, surrounded him and scattered them on the street to make him fall down as he ran around in circles); but they held their fire until the split second opportunity to subdue him presented itself. They let him get a lot of attention, tire himself out and become distracted before they pounced non-lethally. Here, he would have been shot on the mere fact of waving a lethal weapon in the vicinity of police.
I believe you would not take being spit on either.
Awful. RIP, poor guy.
I read last week that the FBI is reopening the Fullerton case because it seems such an obvious abuse of power. Then again, what can we expect from any arm of gummit at this time?
Huh?
What do you mean, “huh”? You made fun of a disabled person. Classy.
“The guy who filmed this assault (Germain Greenman, if I heard the video correctly) is a great American.”

He is indeed. I thank him for his six years of military service. And I thank him for the service he performed on this bus by standing up to and exposing this disgusting official thuggery. Taking and posting this video was a far greater “community service” then the community organizer Barack Obama has EVER performed.
I got to listen to video on Youtube that just bleeped her language (thanks Straight Vermonter for the link)... and what exactly made this person "disabled"? She didn't seem to be mentally ill because her use of the language covered English to slang to urban dictionary terms and not drawn out like I tend to see in those w/ issues.
I shall post to you any time I please, even though it sounds like you are pretty easy to incite into a violent act. Do you still beat your wife?
100%
I think anybody who talks mean to a cop should be beaten senseless. This dissing of authritah must be stopped.
Not buying your theory.
LOL, I will ask her when she gets back from where we ate. She lingered, I came back with a borrowed movie to record for us to watch later tonight.
I think the whole society is going down the crapper. We have a guy on this thread who says he’ll beat anybody who so much as spits on him senseless, claims he is not a cop but sure acts like one.
I don’t think the big brave Keyboard Komando will be hitting anybody.
