like a typical rapist blame the victim and drag them through the mud.

I would lay good money on being "charged with resisting arrest, public intoxication and disorderly conduct" and combativeness are the most common false charges and or trumped up charges cops come up with to punish citizen who don't bow down and obey their betters fast enough.

Apparently he was on his way from church to go help the starving orphans. Truly a (drunken) saint among men.

What's your point? That only saints should be safe from getting arrested by poor delicate cops who can't STAND to be told to "Fuck OFF!"? Note that the cop wouldn't have received an epithet unless he had first challenged King about recording him.

Speaking of saints, are you some kind of sanctimonious tea-totaller? A man has a right to be drunk on his own (or his friend's) property without some thug cop hassling him.

I'm sure if we put you under the microscope we wound find that you have skeletons in your closet.

Note here that Johnny Law doesn't take this opportunity to express satisfaction that justice was done, that police who demand cameras as evidence without a warrant should be weeded out and the message sent to all LEO's that this type of sloppy, thuggish behavior won't be tolerated.

Note here that, instead of reacting like a LEO who cares about the quality of his fellow officers' work, Johnny Law points out that the acquitted was accused of being drunk.

And, I suspect, had the acquitted been given a concussion while being arrested, that would be fine with Johnny Law, as well.

well said, and very true

I would argue that you are always defending your life against an armed assailant. If they are already acting in an unlawful manner you can have no reasonable assumption that your life ISN'T in danger. This is particularly true when you are standing on your property.

Is it no wonder that cops are (allegedly) being assaulted more often. If you act like an unlawful thug you are gonna get treated like one. You deserve it.

I am so tired of the excuses too. Listen, here cops, WE ARE GOING TO RECORD YOU, DEAL WITH IT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIKE IT BUT IF YOU MESS WITH US WE ARE GOING TO TAKE YOU DOWN, WHETHER IT BE LEGALLY OR PHYSICALLY. You have been getting away with this shit for decades, well, get over it, with the multitude of cameras floating about you WILL GET CAUGHT.

And JL, STFU, to you there is an excuse 99.99999999% of the time, the only time you haven't agreed here when there is absolutely no possible defense. How many videos have to come out for you to realize its not just a few bad apples. While I agree there are good cops, the ration of good to bad isn't lopsided to the good side anywhere near where it should be.

When cops know or suspect a fellow officer of misbehavior, instead of keeping your damn mouth shut, DO SOMETHING, because when you don't you are an accessory to the crime. and no better than the offender himself.

That is funny..

A joke, but sad to say some of the pizza guys get murdered by thugs, there was a case where they called one to an abandoned building and killed him. But no gun 4 U pizza guy, no no no, just take it and die.

People are so flabby these days. It used to be 6, not 8.

Given police tend to have three times the rate of committing sexual assaults as the average citizen, does this mean you have an 8% chance of being a sexual predator?

It's the same for TSA agents. You don't even have to have a high school diploma to qualify. They want 'em stupid because most stupid people are happy performing otherwise mind-numbing repetitive tasks, lack common sense, and will apply the regulations as written, no matter how ridiculous and demeaning they are.
