Wow...stupidity knows no bounds with some here. First, you deep in the woods anti-cop FReepers say that he is running because these guys chasing him are Ninja assassins (incredible)...then you say as these Ninjas are about to get him he decides to discard trash from his pocket???
Yeah that makes more sense than two obvious cops are chasing him and before he is lawfully apprehended he discards drugs from his pocket. You guys are probably 9/11 conspiracy theorists as well. If you take the collective brain power FReepers like you, it wouldn’t be able to generate enough power to power a 9 volt battery flashlight.
There is no evidence of any drugs being involved here. The victim was not charged with any crime involving drugs, and there is no evidence that the police report contains information concerning drug possession or the sale or purchase of any drugs by the victim.
I see evidence of an officer using far more than the necessary amount of force.
What I DO NOT see is any evidence whatsoever that the victim was involved in any sort of drug crime. Someone please produce the EVIDENCE of this.
I would also be interested in knowing what why there are folks here who feel that the injuries received were justified because the victim was away from his home, or that he traveled by taxi, or because of who he lives with.
When our right to lawfully go about our business, where ever that business may take us is subject to question by the police, and when massive bodily injury is justified by the police and their supporters because we are not where the officer thinks we "SHOULD" be... then I fear for our society.
I am entertained by your posts, however. I'm amazed that you guys are constantly being allowed to create your own facts concerning the drugs:
Yeah that makes more sense than two obvious cops are chasing him and before he is lawfully apprehended he discards drugs from his pocket.
Then, even without knowing anything about the rest of us, but with our entire posting histories available at your fingertips, you come up with this little gem:
You guys are probably 9/11 conspiracy theorists as well.
Congratulations.
