California Highway Patrol officer filmed repeatedly punching black woman in roadside beating - Polidicks

Having lived in California, I'll tell you. CHP is basically Police Academy rejects. I'm generally pro-police, seeing as me dad's a cop, but CHP takes the fucking cake in terms of "day ruining fuck-nuggets." I'd go as far to say that they're worse then LAPD.

He isn't going to lose his job, he is going to be shouted at then put right back on the beat. Police always look out for each other, even if they're in the wrong.

[QUOTE=BusterBluth;45304075]I think what happened is she smacked or clawed him and he lost his cool.[/QUOTE] If you're that prone to outbursts find another, less stressful job that doesn't involve you having a ridiculous amount of power over other people, especially while armed, you don't lose your cool while armed Cop or not.

From what I've heard from my American friends, the Californian police are dreadful and always pulling shit like this. Is that true or is this an isolated case?

She's walking around on a highway in midday traffic, she even changed her direction to avoid the officer if you read the article. The guy was initially trying to help her get out of a dangerous as fuck situation and she flips her shit when he tried to grab her. Everybody is in the wrong here, she reacted the complete wrong way for someone walking down a busy highway approached by an officer and he wayyy overreacted to her flipping out.

Holy shit what's with the music?

the radio must have been playing something really inappropriate for them to replace the sound with that music

whenever anyone tries to convince me good cops exist I'm just going to show them this

[QUOTE=Baboo00;45304602]If this was a white male, the reaction would have been the same because police brutality is awful no matter who it happens to.[/QUOTE] Gotta disagree with that. The public can't help being biased. If it was a white male, no one would care. If it was a black male, no one, bar the civil rights activists, would care. If it was a white woman, feminists would care. If it was an average looking, non ghetto white woman, lots and lots of feminists would care.

Cops don't punch, and they don't sit on people and punch them in the face, repeatedly.

[QUOTE=BusterBluth;45308079] Getting hit in the face while already in a stressful situation will push almost anyone to the edge.[/QUOTE] A cop's job is to handle "stressful situations." If they can't refrain themselves from unleashing a torrent of punches onto a downed suspect then they shouldn't be a cop.

[QUOTE=mugofdoom;45303753]In any other case involving a corporate entity having to investigate misconduct amongst its own employees, a third party would be required to investigate. Why the fuck is it dumb that I think the same should go for police agencies?[/QUOTE] Agreed with this for once, I don't think "Internal Affairs" is enough, it's still still part of the department and that makes it too corruptible. Why don't we have a branch of the FBI dedicated to this sort of thing?

They can use whatever means they have to to subdue a suspect.
