Two Broward Sheriffs Office Deputies are under fire, accused of using excessive forceand all of it was caught on camera.
BSO is conducting an internal affairs investigation to find out if the two officers involved were justified in using force and are also questioning why Sheriff Scott Israel wasnt notified until three months after the incident....

Google film cops in MD.
We’re one of 12 states where consent is required for both parties.
Trust me.
It’s law in MD.
Try it yourself if you want.
I wasn’t questioning that it is law in MD. I am questioning the legality of the law.
Of course it’s crap but this is the freak state.
;)
How do you respond? How does the South American side of your family respond? How does the Hillbilly Redneck side of your family respond?
Ever see the movie Next of Kin? :)
” Really, I am generally a law and order
citizen”
The part that gets missed is that there isn’t a difference between law and order citizen and those who are tired of poor police behavior. People always try to equate criticism of LE with support for criminals.
These days, it’s hard to find a cop who doesn’t use excessive force.
Tactically, that's a bad idea.
So why would the deputy do that? One reason only. The deputy wanted to provoke the citizen, to get the citizen to step back or even push the deputy. Then the deputy could justify whatever force he wanted to use.
But the citizen just stood there and didn't take the bait. He was beaten anyway.
I did a search and got this:
"Twelve statesCalifornia, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washingtonrequire the consent of all parties for you to record a conversation.
However, all but 2 of these statesMassachusetts and Illinoishave an expectation of privacy provision to their all-party laws that courts have ruled does not apply to on-duty police (or anyone in public). In other words, its technically legal in those 48 states to openly record on-duty police."

I think the key here is the word "conversation" in the first paragraph. So I'm thinking that silent recording is legal in all 50 states. Of course if I'm wrong I could be in for a beating.
“This video is going to cost Broward one hell of a lot of money. If they had any sense they would file criminal charges against both of the Deputies for attempted murder.”
First, Debbe Washerwoman-Schultz is the type specimen for Jewish communists. As such, the police can be used to dominate the untermenschen and she approves.
Whether the New York Times or Lil’ Debbe, the apologists for the police state storm troopers never miss an opportunity to ignore police brutality, hide police crimes, ad nauseam.
Let the Yenta From Hell, and her buddy, Sheriff Israel, explain why the savage was turned loose on the public after that award.
Only when the public demands that a LEO’s certification be permanently removed for such acts, and that officers are to be held personally responsible for such brutality related awards - then and then only will such behavior stop.
I have a Samsung Axxion cam on the bike that they won’t see unless they’re really really looking for it.
I am never going to mention it, either.
I don’t look good with lead in my head.
One only need to understand that in the most dire circumstances of a 911 situation, the mere mention of “officer down” will result in the most expedient attention possible being applied to the emergency. IOW, all-hands come running as fast as humanly possible. This is understandable.
However, when this camaraderie and esprit de corps also extends to outright cover up and criminal acts (in my opinion - filing knowingly false reports, for example) to suppress murderous intent is patently reprehensible and has no defense, period. Public demand for decertification in my book is a panacea - what needs to start happening is aggressive prosecution and prison for these cowards. That’s when it will stop.
Yes, you are correct. What I meant is that generally I am sympathetic to LE and believe they should be given the benefit if the doubt, especially in tense and high pressure situations.
The last few years in south Florida, before the all the drama over the thug who attacked George Zimmerman became a cause celebre, the black community was in an uproar over cops who shot some black suspects.
One case I remember was a perp who was trying to RUN OVER a cop on foot...the officer stopped him permanently.
Anyway, there was an INDEPENDENT investigation by a former FBI man who was black...and HE found no criminal activity by the police. The media was SO UPSET, but had to report the facts.
