You are what's wrong with America. The police officer did her job the way she was trained to do. You act as if she continued to abuse the old woman once subdued. Perhaps psychic abilities could have assisted in this situation but for the officer on the scene all she knew is that there is a person with a weapon who is not following direction be that man, woman, young or old. If the old woman would have hurt a passer by the people would be saying why didn't the officer act quicker.
IF YOU DO YOUR RESEARCH THE POLICE DEFENDS THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS BY OATH. POLICE DID NOT HAVE A PROBABLE CAUSE TO ATTACK, BUT ONLY IN "DEFENSE" FOR HEREBY RIGHT IF THE OLD LADY THREATENED/ATTACKED ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL(S). THIS EVIDENTLY IS WRONG ON THE OFFICERS' BEHALF. AND DARTHRUNEIS KEEP PLAYING YOUR DUMB WOW GAME AND STOP BEING BELLIGERANT THANKS.
NOW LEVELS OF FORCES DOES NOT CERTIFY THIS BEHAVIOR NOT EVEN MACE OR A HANDGUN. IF POLICE HAD SOME DAMN COMPASSION AND FIND OUT WHATS GOIN ON INSTEAD OF PLAIN JANE SEEING A KNIFE, SHIT WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER, IF I WAS A COP, I RATHER GET A WAR SCAR FROM AN OLD LADY THAN TO CAUSE MISERY TO THIS LADYS' LIFE. HELL, IM FORMER MILITARY I WOULD USE A WRIST-LOCK...POLICE "PROTECT" AND SERVE HONORABLY WITH AN OATH. PLAIN AND SIMPLE, USE SOME COMMON SENSE.
I hear people complain about how casual violence has become, and I try to point out that there have been far more violent societies. Reading some of these comments, however, makes me wonder if the people I speak to about it might have a point.
I've seen a woman cop take down an able-bodied adult man with less violence. This is why I thought most would still use careful judgment.
On the other hand, I have to wonder how many people would be justifying it if it had been an elderly white woman.
@pandarsson If we've become so afraid of our own shadows that this sort of abuse of power and trust has become acceptable (as long as it doesn't happen to you or someone you care about, of course), then we seriously need to find where our collective balls went.
@pandarsson Thankyou for posting your thoughts. You have received some negitive remarks but I find that I agree with you completly. I didnt think to put some responsibility on her daughter. Are you on fb?
If somebody has a weapon and refuses to drop it, the police (well, anybody, for that matter) are well within their rights to restrain that person, perhaps violently.
Better this than a cop being stabbed to death by some elderly nutcase because he was too afraid how stupidly some people might react if he acted in self-defence.
I know people with altimeters. They are very violent and also they dont know what their doing. Almost like somebody on drugs would act. Do i think that the cop is in the wrong no. She doesnt know this lady she doesnt know whats wrong with her. It only takes a second to lose your life. Am i saying that she was in that danger no. She could have felt like her life was endangered. This isnt like cops tazering 14 year old girls for not being compliant. The woman had a deadly weapon and wasnt sane.
Really, people who defend cops to some degree, are worse than drug dealers, smugglers, rapists, murders? You're a fucking moron. The video you're replying to wasn't a very serious case of Police Brutality, if even a case at all. Yes, things could've gone better, but there are too many unknowns when dealing with a stranger who has a weapon and isn't responding to "Can you please put the knife down?"
Which is what the officer said before subdueing the woman. Which you ignore.
@kevinLAWLESS420 You don't have to look like a threat to BE a threat, nor is it stupid to consider someone with a weapon a threat regardless of their appearance.
1. The officer was at fault, her great skills of influence, was DROP THE KNIFE DROP THE KNIFE DROP THE KNIFE, which followed by her attacking the old lady, there was blood pools forming on the cement, in some one her age, probably broken bones. Did she try to talk to her, did the officer care? or was it merely arrest the old bat and it will fill my quota for the day.
2. Every wonder why they call reinforcements and get people to back away, its because they know they fucked up!
@Dustieno You're an idiot. The officer said "Can you please put the knife down." Several times.
Police officers call for reinforcements and tell people to back away for two real reasons: In case people overreact (like you and most people in the video do) and start to things like Riot, and they have people back away for similar reasons, someone could very easily attempt to attack the officer.
To the video poster, you are an imbecile. Ignoring facts of the video.
The old bat had a knife, pointed it at the officer, and refused to drop it despite repeated commands from the officer. Did the cop know she had Alzheimer's? I'm gonna take a wild guess that she did not. Cops are not Kung Fu masters and are not trained in 80,000 age-appropriate ways to disarm some batshit fucker brandishing a knife. This woman's family, knowing EVERYTHING about her condition, had a responsibliity to prevent things like this from happening. They fucked it up.
@FlyingPancreas regardless if she was a "kung fu master " or not the fact the she slammed an elderly woman who looks like she weighs 95 pounds with a bag of rocks in her pocket is unforgivable.she a an officer of the law could have and should have handled that better. especial y considering the fact that she is paid to do so
@moniquepink19 People appearing less threatening have injured police officers. The old bat is lucky she wasn't shot, tazed or pepper sprayed. The officer couldn't know what that old woman's state of mind was. If anyone dropped the ball here, it was the elderly woman's family. This reminds me of the loons who always wonder why the cops didn't "just shoot the gun out of the perp's hands." Like there is a perfect trained response for every conceivable scenario. There isn't. Police brutality my ass.
Ten minutes of rambling and clearing your throat a ton of times from that cigg your smoking.. What a waste of time. You are not telling us anything we cannot see already..
ok well first of all id just like to say that i hate the police most of them are power addicted. however in this video the police had no way of knowing this lady has altimers all they know is that theres an old lady with a knife the officer reapetily asked the ladty to drop the knife and then the officer tryed to take the knife and when she did the old lady began to struggle so the cop reacted so sir i would just like to say u are an idiot
Mate, you are a liberal, i got 2 minutes into your film and i had concluded that you are a sit on the fence type of guy. If you were a politician no one would vote for you
@Pashatube That's hilarious. I was a sheriff's deputy for three years in Minneapolis and there's no fucking way we made that much. Starting pay is usually around $28,000 that's why most of us use to moon light as bouncers or security for events. If we went a minute over 40 hours without approval we would be looking for new jobs. If you wanna make a lot of money law enforcement isn't the way to go. And try to get into a four year college instead of a trade school.
I agree, that is not the way to treat the elderly. That dumb cop couldn't even talk to the woman first before putting her hands on her. Besides, she could have easily grabbed the knife away from a frail 85-year-old woman. People who agree with the way that stupid cop handle the situation are a bunch of morons anyway.
@mrjazz747 I agree 100% that lady was 80 years old that officer was about 30 for god sakes.My point is yes she should have disarmed her, but there are lots of ways to disarm someone other than to throw them to the ground.She had no reason to slam her she was just useing her "self defense" to show off.Stupid police officers think they can get away with anything.

@goff8128 The foundation of liberalism is the belief in two concepts: liberty and equality. I'm guessing it's the equality part you're against?
If you support police brutality, well, my message for people that support it goes for you, too.
pandarsson 1 year ago
Well said guy, agree with everything you said especially about supporter of the cop having totally different human values than rest.
Except;
1- "Law enforcement is tough job". Brain surgeory is tough job. But no one is forcing anyone to become a cop or brain surgeon.
2- Big city cop makes $50k-75k per year starting salary. Thats about $4200-$6200 per month. Not sure if this is considered low paying job.
I'm sick of, "cops face danger all time+its difficult". No one force anyone face danger.
