  • When you are instructed to do something by a police officer do it. Stay out of the way and shut up.

  • @mikeyyekim1 fuck you, pig

  • @mikeyyekim1 Even if he has a gun and you think he's about to murder you for no good reason? They are no more than glorified corporate security guards - policy enforcers, end of. They overstep their rights all the time. The only thing you can do is bear arms to protect yourself if the worst happens, be polite until he turns into a dick. 

  • This was in shreveport, i've had my ass kicked by these cops outside a bar for no reason...the officers in shreveport are corrupt fucking assholes

  • these guys are out of their fucking minds, its like they are not even paying attention to the video. just a couple of dickbags with microphones spewing their slanted opinions.

    you would have to be out of your mind to lend tyt any credibility what so ever.

  • Most intelligent countries have banded the Taser as a inhuman torture device.

  • Except that within the cop sub-population the percentage of "dicks" is significantly higher than a randomly selected scientific sampling of society. This is simply because the profession attracts those who don't feel like they're respected enough as it is - and need a badge and an artificial sense of authority to feel good about themselves - to somehow fulfill their ego & legally be assholes.

  • Cops treat Black people like science experiments. I hope each and every one of those cops goes straight to hell.

  • its always fucking tazers

  • In the immortal words of Porter: "Crooked cops. Do they come in any other way? If I'd been just a little dumber, I could have joined the force myself."

  • @Yabbablabba Who is Porter..? is that from a movie.. ?

  • @dalesalsa It's from Payback. Classic Mel Gibson flick from before his "fall from grace"

  • this isnt in new orleans. it is in Shreveport, Louisiana....which is in northwest louisiana.

    i know many shreveport police officers, because i am from shreveport. and they are awesome people. there are bad cops in every department. this is a bad few cops. but the shreveport police department is a great department. it simply has its flaws like all other departments.

  • @chennessey11 they shouldnt have flaws they control weather people live or die

  • this isnt in new orleans. it is in Shreveport, Louisiana....which is in northwest louisiana.

  • @SuperSexyBoiGod

    All according to SuperSexyBoiGod....

    I'll take your word for it. So tell me, when you're in trouble, who you gonna call?

    ...

  • @Grungadin GhostBusters.....?

  • Most cops are dicks who think they dont get payed enough. So they have a right to have some" fun" with public ( it's part of the benefits ) ). Correction officers are just freaks. You forgot Disorderly conduct as most bullshit charge.

  • @660magnum

    Cops don't get paid enough, and if they did there wouldn't be so much corruption in law enforcement. Why is it ok in your opinion to pay politicians incredible salaries to do little more than argue all day in a leather chair while cops receive dirt for risking their lives, sacrificing their personal life, and serving the community? I'm not talking about all cops, but I'm talking about the profession itself. It is a sacrifice to be a cop, and they deserve more money and respect.

  • good example of a dick getting into power. 'dick' cheney

  • Ive run into cops many times. They are human so yes some are dicks some are cool. In my experience its been about 50/50. But when you run into a dick cop it fucking sucks because they got you by the balls.

  • power corrupts -- this is news to you?

    Imagine what the cops would do without the camera.

    Cops are no worse than most people, they jjust have power --and many abuse it. Tuff job.

  • cops hate the invention of video cameras

  • you fucking people never dealt with Russian cops, they are 100 times worse than the pussies you got in U.S

  • andron333

    it's not a contest idiot to see which country has the worst cops.

    if you are proud of Russia's police forces abuse's of it's citizens.....

    then have at it.

    but this is America ,& we're sick of stories about abuse from the police that we trust our protections to.

  • why wasn't the fight filmed ? to many things broke ? have to have the whole story not just part's of it ... act like men and you probley will find just how eazy life can be ...

  • Those cops are just assholes.

  • He was mocking that one guy who was being tazed by cops once that kept yelling don't taze me bro.  Completely different situation.

  • seriously?

  • The lowest lives on planet earth go into police force. The become cops BECAUSE they are screwed up.

  • It sounds like you applied and got rejected.

  • The cops are just fucking doghnut munching pricks

  • ..yes they are hated!!!!!!

  • I could not agree more. Pesonally, I don't care for cops at all! I've haven't come into to contact with many cops but, the few I have left me not caring too much for them.

  • Anna again looks hot

  • great reporting. they are in shreveport, idiot, not new orleans.

  • That's right. Take the drunk bitch to jail.

  • get back get back or your going to jail... what a fucking douche bag cop

  • Before cops had tasers all they did was shoot you and beat you with the baton.Cops got bullied in school. Now they're looking for any reason to shoot you.

  • yep..they were the kids that sat by themselves at lunch

  • cops are here to protect ha! hahaahahaha! dont make me laugh fuckin cops dont do shit anymore they cant, in cali they are cutting jobs from cops cuz they cant afford them and there is too much crime going on so they say fuck it its every man for themselves now stay strapped!!!!! real talk

  • Yep yet another example that ACAB

  • absolute power corrupts absolutely. MOST cops are crooked.

  • sk8: I was just getting ready to post the same thing "power corrupts..." when I happened upon your post of it before me. Thx. I can't say most cops are bad. I've had major run-ins in my youth w/cops & deputy sheriffs. My stepdad is a former marine then joined the force where he went on to become a detective. He's late 70s now but will agree bad cops exist. The trouble today is the lack of empathy, respect, & then there is the ego issue that leads to the power/corruption problems.

  • I totally agree with you.

  • have you ever met a cop have u ever been arrested for no reason well i have 1 time when a cop was asking me questions he didn't like my answers so he said i was being rood and fucking arrested me and that wasn't the first time either COPS ARE DICKS

  • And so what? Some cops are dicks. The same goes for some doctors, some lawyers, some store clerks. You're going to find assholes everywhere, but fact of the matter is that police officers in general maintain the peace, solve crimes and keep us safe. If you want to generalise based on your encounter with one officer, then you're not very intelligent.

  • DAM. u r right. its fucked up but true. There are a lot of dicks out there. but not all of them can throw u on the ground and tase you or even shoot u and claim that they were just doing their job.

  • @sk8ndrums Wrong all cops are crooked

  • the guy talking says this was in new orleans, la... it was actually in Shreveport, la. I live there.

  • Police are stewards of the state. They are hired to protect the desires of the state. Anyone who believes cops are there to protect their personal rights or civil liberties are delusional.

  • There all cunts who throw their weight around too much , They flunked out of school and couldnt hack it in other jobs

  • The militarization of the police is a direct result of the rise of the right wing with the beastly Reagan being the kingpin in this rise.

  • fuck cops

  • fuck cops

  • no such thing as a good cop if there where then there would be no bad cops as the good ones should be doing something about the bad ones as we all see that the cops are still scum then theres no good cops

  • By that logic then, there can be no good people in the world, as there are definitely some bad.

  • One of my best friends is a cop, I know lots of them personally too. He used to laugh and joke about how they would all gang up on some guy and rough him up. I have never met a cop who wasn't at least a little bit of a jerk on a power trip. Of course there has to be ones who aren't but it's a profession that does have it's share of jerks. Sort of the nature of the beast. It's like politicians who are full of shit, well cops go on power trips.

  • cops did not do anything wrong. when the cops tell you to get on the ground. then you get on the ground. you dont huge it out and try and put on a show.

    brolin and wright shouldnt be "interfering" in an arrest, let actors deal with fantasy, let the police deal with reality

  • lol waiting to see what DICK would respond first.THISFUKKINGGUY your the winner! this gave me the chance to say some thing the person who started the problems ( inside the bar) is the only one who should have been arrested NOT these guys .I wished i could have been there to see WHY this had to happened.BUT AGAIN I SAY THIS.I have been in this city and partyied here.The bars stay open till 7am ,ya have to REALLY be acting up to get people to notice,so SOMETHING HAPPENED

  • who was the asshold who started the trouble inside the bar in the firstplace ...we dont see anything about him,by the way i live in Shreveport and ya have to be pretty bad to get the cops called on ya,believe me I have been downtown to those bars and ,,,well they were doing something wrong or this wouldnt have happened

  • You're a fucking idiot.

  • here's the thing you can tape most cops. but when u get in the cops face with camera or get close to them when there tazing someone you're getting tazed too.

  • But remember it's only 95% of N.O. police that give the rest a bad name!

  • Cenk is exactly right on this. I use to respect cops until one gave me a ticket, and was an asshole about it. And I was being respectful to him, but the little bastard was on a major power trip.

  • I got arrested by the cops in Glenwood Springs, CO last summer for taking a picture of an arrest. They erased the pictures and broke my camera while I was in custody. Alot of cops suck and the good ones go bad covering up for them. This guy is exactly right on.

  • i love cops but for the bad ones.

    fuck fuck fuck the police.

  • Thats Horrible ,Cops are out of control ,they

    killed a man in Bart shot him when he was face down on the ground with another cop holding him still, the cops threw up the blue wall of silence a few days ago to hide the murder ,why are cops so evil!!

  • "When you put a *Dick* in a position of authority, he ends up abusing it."

    That's true. Look at the current Vice President. LOL

  • those cops should be tazered 2 death lol.

  • Jeff wright portrayed Colin Bowell in "W". "This seems more like New World Disorder, than NWO" his character says.

    Colin himself was jumped by Bush handler on Talking live to late Tim Russert in '04. "WMD Intel was faulty, I'm sorry I went along.." handler jumps on his mic and says "You can't say that!" "Get off me Damn you, this is live Colin shouts" Russert demands that handler put Colin back on air.

  • When local Police call for pledge to support Policeman Ball, agree. They send letter, but remember to tell them you want to give the Max donation and want another 2009 Gold Sticker for your car windsheild.

    Keep the gold badge sticker, throw away the stamped donation letter. When they call to remind to to mail donation, tell them you got layed off, ask if they are hiring and work them instead.

  • they should psychologically analyze every single person who wants to be future cops and make sure they are sane and don't abuse that power.

    crazy ass cops.

    but then there would be very few cops.

    :(

  • Score over 100 on IQ in NY, they pass on you....too smart.

    Abu Girab passed on MP's as prison guards, chose Pizza Hut NG girl and those trained for combat.

  • Cops are out of control.

  • This is what happens to young black and latino men everyday in America.

  • What? That wasn't LAPD? What's the world coming to?

  • with all the footage of police bullshit like this, I have zero respect left for the police. They keep calling asking me for donations for some bullshit cop fund and I tell em so.

    Never thought I'd say it, but especially after the coverage of convention protests, fuck the police.

  • ok that right winger crap you spewed was BULLSHIT!!! Everyone gets pissed at the cops even if they are red or blue! What happened on the tape is upsetting for everyone with a soul! Why does everything have to come down to us against the republicans with you.....???

    You're teasing us with your words bro! lol

  • Hmmm... I wonder why Wright was tasered but not Brolin? Maybe it's because he's... NAH!

  • Well said Capt.

  • America is becoming similar to Germany in the 1920´s, and after the 20´s comes the 30´s.

  • I can almost smell the Fuhrer

  • Man this should be followed up. They should nail these redneck New Orleans police. There are some people who should never have a badge or a gun...and sadly some of them are cops. I've known some terrific cops...I've also known some real assholes...the asshole ones vote Republican.

  • America, "Land of the Free" MY ASS!!!!!

    I'm a firefighter and hang around cops on a regular basis.....I hear them talk about the shit they do to people.I would say 70% of the ones I know abuse their authority on a regular basis.....makes me sick but what can you do???They have the power!Gangsters with badges!

  • These tasers are the biggest problem in the force right now. Because they give the illusion of not being harmful cops will just use them for anything any time they feel they get 'disrespected'. People have died from these things either through drugs, misuse of the tazer (people falling to their deaths) or even by heart-conditions.

    We aren't turning into a police state any more, we're already there.

  • I agreed, they will always used a lie to used as their probable cause to stop you on the road, such as, 'it appears you were weaving',

    especially if you are driving an old model car vs a fairly new car.

  • There are some systematic abuses that are rampant by the police because they see civil rights and proper procedure that are designed to protect those rights as an obstacle and a nuisance.

    This is one example of this abuse of authority. The other very common one is lying to get probable cause. They say you didn't have your seat belt on when you did to get around not being able to pull you over for no reason, then say they smell something illegal to get past the illegal search and seizure

  • No reason to use the taser when the subject is face down already.

  • Props to the woman for trying to defend the dude.

    Oh, and Cenk, your hostess is hawt!

  • Nique la Police... the good cop is a dead cop.

  • I use to live in New Orleans and I tell you what - -I will never ever move back. The whole system is corrupt and crooked.

    Before during and after Napoleon and Katrina. New Orleans is concidered a Napolianic state which means the government and all who work for it have the right to do whatever they want to you. Including evicting people without a courtdate - arresting people without reason and so on.

  • What is going to happen next? The Police are out of control. There are these kind of stories all over the country.

  • i wonder if they have ever been in control.

    i mean, everything is on youtube now...think all the years without youtube...and without 24hr cable news running shit over and over.

    my mom claims that pediphilia is up from when she was a kid. my contention is that she is just hearing about it more. not sure if pediphilia is up...but im sure there are more news stories about it

    just a thought...are the cops out of control, or was a minority never in control and we are just now realizing it?

  • that said, there is no question that we are moving more toward a police state. not simply because of more videos like this than there were in the past. but mostly i think cuz of the threat to civil liberties.

  • if this was new orleans, then no wonder.........ever since katrina happened, they have basically been taking anyone to come work for them, cuz alot of the cops left.....bunch of rent-a-cops basically, with shitty training......unexcusable

  • This happened in Shreveport, LA. As far as the rent-a-cop basic training thing goes, you're right about that, but Shreveport has no reason to have such bad training.

  • oh i though cenk said new orleans premier of "W"

  • He did say that but his info is wrong.

  • i fuckin hate the police!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • shut up slaves, just obey

  • "such my dick masta" - Eddie Murphy

  • This type of shit is happening more and more in not only the U.S. but Canada as well, cops are being trained to engage civilians and control them. We need to get used to this treatment because it is only going to get worse in the years to come.

  • Power, whether it be done in groups or individually is most normally expressed with some kind of violence (giving pain or injury) to the victim. This is as old as life itself and expresses the power of a preditor or an authority over the beaten. This is why the term "beaten" is used in sports where the outcome is uncertain. Often times police will think of the citizens as the enemy, and will try to stave in their skulls for the fun of it. Now they got tasers.

  • Not "Some cops," Cenk. MOST COPS. Corruption and abuse of power is the NORM and the good cops are the exception to the rule. We need to start framing the discussion within that factual context.

  • For me they called it "obstructing" - just that. The judge threw it out, said he didn't know what it meant.

    What it meant was, I was standing on the sidewalk, near where the cops were kicking a friend of mine while he was down. I don't even remember what I said.

    I'm female, the friend was male. I got tossed around, slapped and felt up.

    There's a bit more to the story, but you get the idea...

    Not all cops would do anything of the kind, but enough would, that it's a real problem.

  • Cops are nothing but gangsters with badges. If you give them a weapon, they will use it regardless of whether it is needed.

  • Why was Wright tased and Brolin wasn't?

    Ummmm Ana we all know we all know the answer to that question.

    Nothing new.

  • Pay attention to Ana's reaction to Cenk when she finds out he's an ex-con. Women love the bad boy.

  • I asked why was it such a big deal blah blah.. (trespassing on school grounds) I said, "What did I do wrong? My friend asked me to come over here for a minute, I live near here, on a walk.. he txted me. Said he is at the school"

    "WHAT IF UR FRIEND ASKED U TO GO AND SHOOT SOMEONE IN THE HEAD? WOULD YOU DO THAT TOO?

    I was like LOL!

    He got all red and mad "Oh yeah tough guy? Wanna be the smartass all your life? You'll see real soon how far it gets you"

  • I had a feeling fatty was a criminal. This confirms it.

  • fuckin scary ass shit.. they need to be controlled

  • Cops are assholes. Every person I've ever known who wanted to be a cop failed highschool and was as dumb as shit. They could never get far in any other profession, so this is the only place they get to wield power. I see cops speeding and committing moving violations all the time. They think they're above the law. If you ask me, they have a criminal's psychology, but they're on the other side, abusing citizens "legally" and on top of it get to be self righteous pricks too. Fuck 'em.

  • Agreed.

  • WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THE POLICE?!?!?

    Oakland Bart Police shot and killed a 22 year old handcuffed guy. And now this.

  • the cops has always been dirty. We are just now able to film it and put it online to show the world exactly what these dirty cops have always been doing.

    anyways, like they said, not all cops are dirty. I have a cop friend (...but he is a mall cop, lol) and he is really friendly.

  • That's an assasination

  • now think. who are the police? who becomes police officers?

    --those jocks from high school who stayed home after everybody else went to college. so they're a bunch of angry dumb high school dropouts/rejects who are on a power trip. fucking cops.

  • I live in Louisiana, and I know aaaaall about what happened in NO during Katrina, so, yeah ... no respect for cops. And my cousin's a cop, my uncle's a detective, and my other uncle's a trooper. Love them, hate cops.

  • you should see this one at some kerry speech in a university

  • I used to have respect for the police, but over the last 30 or so years, with the meteoric rise of abuse by police, I now believe that the only good cop, is a dead cop. Of course this way of thinking perpetuates the abuse, but I can't seem to help myself. Nobody seems to want to do anything about the abuse by police, who are more and more becoming worse than the criminals they are supposed to protect us from. What the fuck has happened to my country, and how the fuck did it happen??

  • isn't jeffrey wright black? and he's the one that gets tasered? innnnnteresting

  • New Orleans? no

    It was in Shreveport, Louisiana.

  • At 19 I was arrested for a ticket I forgot to pay. I didn't fight, didn't talk back but 2 New Orleans cops took me on the river side of the levee & told me how they were going to kill me & dump me in the river. They laughed the whole time. They withheld my phone call for over 24 hours. Finally my parents filed a missing persons claim & all hell broke loose. When I told the story to internal affairs... They promised an investigation that never took place. Changed my opinion of cops forever.

  • Break the FOP.

  • everybody knows all over the world how usa is the biggest police state in the world!its totally illuminati and free mason-cops have all the power and they take advantage of it to the extreme!nobody has a rite to touch any1 even a cop!its a felony and thats what we use here in the uk-fuk da police!

  • move out the usa while you still can..

  • Trust me, I know cops can be dicks, I have a few stories where I was abused and Im such a sweet guy :D.

    However, its hard to tell with these lil 30 second clips whats really going on. I dont know if the cops are guilty or not from that clip. Cops tasering some guy on the floor is not neccessarily wrong or against the law. Cops use pain to get people to comply and stop struggling, so just because he was on the floor does not mean he was not a dick himself.

  • There should be harsher laws for police abuse of power than the same offenses by civilians. I don't know if there are or not. But if you kick someone's ass unjustly as an on-duty cop, you should get twice the sentence someone else would get... and I don't just mean fired, your ass should do hard time for tasering someone who's already doing what you say. It seems like police get immunity with the badge when it should be the other way around.

  • a police state.

  • Personality tests were given to various professions and the two types that matched the most were police and criminals.

  • I bet sweet Ana is wild in bed when she is angry. You can't beat an angry fuck!

  • I bet ana would leave bite marks and finger nail scratches all over... :S lol

  • I really have a passionate hatred for COPS. this just reminds me to keep my HATE for them going STRONG!(AS ONE PASSES MY HOUSE)

  • 4:13 "... dicks. And when you put a dick in a position of authority with all that power, ok, and it gets to it's head, what winds up happening is he winds up abusing it."

    "It happens all the freaking time."

    ya dam right it does.

  • police officers should go through a castration process before getting a gun

    we dont need more dick piggies on the road

  • If you want to see first-rate police brutality come to Brooklyn.

  • Because Wright is black. I am not kidding, that's why he is getting tazzed.

  • Caps are redic

  • fuck the police

  • some cenk? um...no...most. MOST

  • Cops are mostly power hungry douchebags. I say fire them all and start from scratch.

  • There was a census compiled of the psychological profiles of police officers. I believe it was over 70% display authoritarian personality types. So yes, it is indeed true that the majority of police officers are power hungry douchebags.

  • NewOrleans ? OF COURSE...isn't that one of the most highly corrupt forces ?

  • it was in Shreveport, even more corrupted police and less crime

  • sick cop fucks

  • I have always supported police...and think every cop I meet for the work he does....but I at the same time have a great amount of issues with police.....they are so poorly trained that they seem to always have to use over excessive force, and tazers, even when they should be trained to subdue someone instead of trying to injure them.....this is not a thing that happens every so often, it is a daily situation....

  • got pulled over so i cut on the handy cam i had on my dash cop whooped my ass best evidence in court

  • They were tasing Wright because he just happened to be black so he obviously needed to be tased. What else could it be?

    Fuck the police.

  • Police have way too much power in this country. The can kill and taser at will.

  • Ive had to deal with dicks cops as well as good ones. But most of the time they were dicks with a couple of exceptions.

  • I've had to deal with a couple dick cops and I hate all cops now. Fuck the Police.

  • Ironically I heard a conservative talk show host admit this very thing this morning. U might be more like them than u want to admit LOL

  • So true, so true.

  • FUCK COPS!

  • First, but that sickens me

  • Damn it, i'm late 10th

  • cops are animals...psychopaths!!

  • Police brutality ,How shocking . (no pun intended)

  • Let me guess, nothing is going to happen to those cops, right? And other officers wonder why so much of the public look down on police officers. When they're allowed to get away with assaulting someone for no apparent reason then the public is going to lose trust of them.

  • Police brutality plain and simple! This happens all the time! Can Young Turks find out how many people have died from being Tasered?

  • Sue Sue Sue...that is all I'm saying ... Sue their fuckin' asses off. Nazi fuckin' bastards, hello NWO. Dicks? Totally. Just like bush, once they think they are above the law - they start to play God Emperor Dickhead.

  • No words man, no words. Those fuckers should be drummed off the force for that.

  • three words. FUCK THE POLICE!!!

  • Wow... I guess some cops can be as bad as the criminals. Scary. Never actually dealt with one, so I thought they were all ok. O_O

  • Josh Brolin should keep that No Country For Old Men Stache 24/7. Why would he omit such a classy nadierlenois from his repetoire?

  • Cenks bad ass being arrested and everything

  • are you armenian ana?

    because your last name sounds armenian
