Assault and Police Brutality in Los Angeles

[tean2269]

Did not mean to kick perp,total accident,had to slow down or he would of over ran him.

[Izzdan]

lesson learned, you don't pull over like you suppose to you get kicked in the head.

[ElGatoLoco698]

It doesn't matter what crime this guy is suspected of doing. The fact is, a civilian can't do it to another civilian without being charged. So if a civilian can't do it, why should a cop be able to do it. Secondly, the suspect was obviously complying with the cops demands at this point. This is a total abuse of power and we don't need cops like this on the street. Period. This is flat out assault. It should be aggravated assault too since the officer already had compliance.

[shoveah1]

the cops are the biggest gang in los angeles.people already forgot about the ramparts division .I've gone all over california montana oregon pennsylvania new jersey and nobody's heard about the ramparts corruption

[shoveah1]

then you get mad when cops get shot in the head lol.this has been approved by Mr Pico union DTLA all day.

[MrDjSeamless325]

stupid mexican

[jairo20o]

POLICIAS PENDEJOS !WTF

[thc2468]

@jairo20o no mames baboso

[phillycopwatch09]

cops love it when you resist, you see the guy was lying spread eagle and after the kick, the other RAT lands a knee to the back, any reasonable person would begin to move and then these dirty RATS can add another charge. I wonder if he beats his wife like that (or his boyfriend)

[bluesharkwvl]

So what, if you dont do anything wrong you dont have to be scared off the fucking police.

[StunnaGGurl]

Youuu All aree Dumb juss cuss somone dosee somthing Worng

dosnt , meaan they need to get kiCked , in the head ! likee thaat Groow up

Would yOuuh do that Too , your kids when they break The rulees No ii dont

think soo Youuuh ppl who dont see anything wrong with that really need to get help

[wayness5]

its los angeles... that 23 year old kid deserved it for putting others in harms way. Hes about to find out what life is like, the hard way.

[tmmoore52]

After chasing this guy at 100+mph, then running after him on foot, these guys ar amped up! It is difficult to shut all of the energy & adrenaline down as soon as the bad guy decides "o.k. I'm tired & ready for a ride to jail so I can relax". Take your car, hit 80mph & then drop it into 2nd. That is exactly what you are expecting the officers to do with their minds and bodies.

Restraint needs to be practiced, but allow that there are issues beyond control because they are, after all, just human.

[rjnsn1]

@tmmoore52 I'm sure people would have NO problem with extending that respect to officers of the law.....IF it were, in fact, returned. In reality we all know it isn't and it is usually the people who can least defend themselves that bear the brunt of these officers "humanity". There is NO quarter given by 90% of law enforcement that I have dealt with. However, I have seen them through the eyes of a virtually homeless person AND as a local business owner. Neither has resulted in very good exper.

[Multibanda]

KILL A PIG

[DeezYum]

I love how the top comments cheer on the cops that beat the shit out of that guy, They have no right to do such a thing. They are not god.

[DubSmoove]

Woooow! Kick an unarmed man while he is down. Beat him with the flashlight to. That is the usual business when White Nigger Pigs are involved. Abuse by the White Nigger Cops has be going on for decades!!! These are the very same guys who also call themselves GOD fearing men/JESUS followers. What a gag!! HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAA!!!!

[sex14]

that cop that hit the man in the head is totally fucking unnecessary... cops are getting stupider and stupider and who the fuck hits someone in the head when their laying face down on the ground...

[hyphen93]

@sex14

this is the only time that they can show their power.

[tiopira5]

fuckin assholes they dont deserve any respect

[TheEnglishViking1]

All cops are the same; rock hard when they are in a gang of five or when the other guy is on the floor.

[bootleg12576]

if you run and or endanger others in the process of running from the police... you deserve to get your ass beat by the cops

[MrXIXX]

You guy got it all wrong! It wasn't Police brutality!! What you just saw is a great tactical move from that officer! As the officer approached, he saw the suspect looking in his direction, the officer then physically encouraged the suspect to look in another direction as to not observe the approaching officers, and therefore maintaining tactical control over the unfolding situation!

[comgetit1]

@MrXIXX we'll see how tactical it is when he comes and kicks you in the head for LOOKING at him....

[MrXIXX]

@comgetit1 I hate to break it to you, but I won't be running from the police. If they need to pull me over, they will, and I will stop. I have nothing to hide from the police at all. So I don't have to concern myself with a cop kicking my ass. I just don't give them a reason to have contact with me. This asshole should have done the same.

[comgetit1]

@MrXIXX im drunk now so im not gonna argue with you :P i just think that this guy was probably under different circumstances xD i dont think he ran from the cops for speeding if you kno what i mean. and of course you shouldnt give them reason to harm you but unfortunetaly sometimes thats not up to you but well said by all measn :D :D

[saynoagain]

whoever feels like officers have the right to be judge,jury and executioner.Needs to read the law.Why do we have a court system?When officers assault and break the law,they themselves are criminals.Noone is above the law,that is what keeps society civil.Its not whos side your on its hold everyone accountable foe their actions.

[MrBriq]

Undelay!!! Undelay !!! La migra!!! La migra!!!!

[MrBriq]

Undelay!!! Undelay !!! La migra!!! La migra!!!!

[goodlife404]

You should know by now that cops like this don't care about "rights". It doesn't really matter to fascists like this whether they have the right or not.

The cop should be arrested and charged with assault

[judyneric]

For the fucking idiots who think cops can kick someone in the face to "stun them"... if a suspect loses all his rights simply because the police say so, when do his rights return to him? after he is in custody? but wait: he could headbutt an officer at anytime! in the jail cell? but wait: he could spit on the officer, possibly giving the officer a disease! i guess its best if cops just kill any suspect they feel may present any danger to them. you bootlicking faggots: cops DO break the laws.

[strikeforcered]

Cops should do more curb side justice. We should stop pampering these ass holes who commit crimes and run to avoid arrest.

[strikeforcered]

Cops should go back to curb side justice. Stop pampering these ass holes who commit crimes and then run to avoid arrest.

[arushbhai]

that criminal deserves more than a kick on his face. How would you react if he steals thousands of dollers worth of stuff from your house, will u hav tolerance? i bet ull kick him on his face more than once so shut the fuck up and give respect to cops and not criminals u fukin retard

[Kooly1]

It's not assault, it's battery. Change the title.

[fasteddie847]

typical police scumbag pig behavior. that pig probably got fired and that's it. police can and do assault people and nothing happens but you assault a cop and you'll go to prision

[Gina670]

@fasteddie847 Actually he didn't get reprimanded at all. The prosecutor said that this was an example of an appropriate use of force. Why are you on the side of the criminal? You must be a criminal too.

Maybe you want to let all of the criminals of the world go free? Not me. I think we should line all of you car-stealing jackasses up and kick you all in the head for justice!

[fasteddie847]

@Gina670 I'm not on the side of the criminal but everyone has rights. Of course the prosecuter said it was approaite. Cops stick together, protect one another and lie for one another. The majority of cops are scumbag pieces of shit who abuse their force at every turn and this is a prime example. That guy was of no threat at all. He was laying spread eagle with his hands out. That's a scumbag pig who should be in jail for assault

[thomas242007]

fuck the pigs i hate all cops!!!

[Hazy804]

fuckin pigs, they aint take me without a fight

[AcidC4]

0:06 have you tried to jump up quickly from that position you idiot ,and to say that he might have a blade pretty much destroys your thick way of thinking if thats the case the cops could just use that excuse any time they felt like it.

"I blew his head off cause i thought he might have a rocket launcher in his back pocket oops"

[AcidC4]

Lying down flat on his face 0:06 legs and arms apart being compliant,Cop walks up kicks him in the face.Your obviously to ill-educated to understand the difference between right and wrong when you take the oath to protect and serve.

Some people run from the police because

there scared and have done nothing wrong.If you think kicking someone in the face is enforcing law then your seriously misinformed.

[dwayneload]

He ran until he was cornered, destroying thousands of dollars worth of property in the process. When you run until you are cornered it isn't "being compliant" it is "defeat." He could just as easily jumped up and stabbed or shot that cop, so the cop was right to deliver a blow to the head to stun him for a second. Nothing but good police work here.

[dragdritt]

lol you must be a 11 yr old redneck, because you mister, are retarted.

[dwayneload]

@drag, you have only proven that you have no point other than the one on top of your head.

[angelahk28f]

What about the thousands of dollars of medical bills? We as tax payers will have to pay for them because he is under arrest. Once again I think we as Americans need to form citizen boards in our communities to screen out the bad cops, and let the good cops do their jobs. Including routine psychological screenings and follow up on complains and insure their powers only include the legitimized use of force.

[dwayneload]

To what "medical bills" do you refer? The man was not harmed, he only took a kick to the head. You can call them "bad cops" if you want to, but that does not make it so. This criminal thug pig-shit creature deserved a kick to the head, and frankly, so do you.

[itzme66]

whether he deserved it or not is not up to the police to decide. police abuse their authority all the time and it needs to stop.

[dwayneload]

@itzme66 ...to decide what? The police were reacting to an emergency. They didn't "decide" to do any of this. In case you didn't notice, there was a criminal smashing cars all up and down the street. Luckily the good guys caught him before anybody could get hurt.

[judyneric]

@dwayneload I think dwayneload's name says it all. He worships cops and likes to let them "dwayne" a "load" in his mouth on those long overnight patrol shifts. "Stop by Dwayne's, get a quick BJ, and be back on patrol in no time!" Stop your fucking cop worship. They ARE bad cops. They cannot handle their jobs, and that makes them BAD COPS.

[dwayneload]

@judyneric Wow. Compensate much?

You love crime and criminals. Why would I care what you think?

[judyneric]

@dwayneload Dwayne, you are so right. The criminal could have suddenly levitated from the ground, had blades come out of his boot tips, and started spinning like a propeller, cutting to ribbons anything in his path, including the cops. Those cops would have been right to pull out samurai swords and behead the suspect so he couldn't hurt them.

[Gina670]

If you think that it is safe for a police officer to walk casually up to a criminal who has been running from the police for an hour, then you are seriously incorrect. That criminal could have EASILY jumped up and stabbed or shot that officer. You are full of shit.

[itzme66]

thats why police have certain procedures to follow. and kicking the alleged suspect in the head is not one of them.

[Gina670]

@itzme66 Actually it is. Police have been trained to deal a stunning blow to a perp. This kick to the head did no serious or permanent damage AND possibly saved the officer's life because that thug criminal loser could have easily pulled out a gun or knife. Criminals don't fight fair.

[fasteddie847]

@Gina670 You're a idioit if you think kicking him saved the officers life. That guy was laying down, spread eagle absolutley no threat at all. That pig kicked him to make a point. And that is that "how dare you make me the police exert energy and come and chase you down. Now see I will abuse you and there's nothing you can do about it". Cops are scumbag pigs who abuse people physcially and emotionally. That pig should be in jail for assault

[judyneric]

@Gina670 Cops are not trained to kick spread eagle and prone perps in the face to stun them, you silly fucking bitch.

[AcidC4]

Innocent until proven Guilty is a legal right that the accused in criminal trials has in many modern countries,maybe the USA is not that modern yet is that what your saying?

[dwayneload]

Nobody is trying to prove anyone guilty, dipshit. He got kicked in the head because he was running from the police. Do you expect them to have a trial in the middle of that guy's back yard? You have no understanding of rights or our legal system. The police are here to enforce laws, not to please the twelve year olds in the Youtube community.

[dwayneload]

I think that the cops should kick all criminals in the head. Especially the ones that run.

[kaspastarr]

your a fucking fuck tard. no one should kick any one in the head, why would you want to do something violent like that?

64

[coolronification]

@dwayneload I would love to kick you in the head.

[SirPercivil]

@dwayneload

And then one day YOU will be the ''criminal''. I'm sure you'll enjoy the feeling of a polished shoe ramming into your face. I'm sure you'll say ''thanks officer for taking care of the 'criminals'. Please, kick me again."

[brontemark]

@dwayneload I think YOU should be kicked in the head..............

FAGGOT

[logicradio1]

"Rodriguez is a recent parolee who had served time in state prison for drug charges and is suspected of being a gang member."

You reap what you sow.

[mickety2001]

How anyone can support this cop is beyond me. It's like they don't have a brain to think.

A good cop is worth supporting but a bad one isn't. There is a difference. This cop is a bad cop and you cannot defend what he did. It was petulant and below the standard I would expect of a good police officer.

[AcidC4]

Cops have to show Tolerance otherwise they lose all respect and become fair game.

[chingon711]

Good point and succinctly said....Thumbsup!

[Gina670]

Tolerance of a criminal who lead them on a high speed chase and did thousands of dollars of damage?  Are you fucking retarded?

[judyneric]

@Gina670 Expecting a cop to follow procedure, act professionally, and not break laws because someone else already broke some? Are YOU fucking retarded? If a cop can't handle his job, which DOES include chasing criminals, and perform it professionally at ALL times, then the piece of shit shouldn't be a cop. Like the two pieces of shit who couldn't handle their jobs in this video.

[sexyfoxx86]

@Gina670 Are you rtetarded to think that cops don't have to follow the law! The man was already down he didn't need to be kicked in the head or hit with a flashlight! This is why cops are attacked!

[tuxedo441]

@AcidC4 They already lost respect by kicking the guy on the head and beating him with a flashlight who was not resisting arrest. When they abuse their power and think they're above the law they don't deserve any respect. Bad cops make the good cops look bad.

[ninjacops100]

@AcidC4 I think the perp go what he deserved. It's better that the officer kicked first and ask questions later as opposed to shoot first and ask questions later.

[ninjacops100]

@AcidC4 Two-thumbs up to the policeman.

[Pumpedmuscle]

@AcidC4 I think most of them have already lost all respect from most people.

[ferret6677]

How about the Brutality of the criminals on innocent people in their homes? Why stick up for criminals.

[mygoatisdead]

My God ferret, you don't know what a free society is. Police are NOT supposed to beat people up because they feel like it. What the fuck do you think courts are for?

I hate criminals, but I hate police corruption too, and you should too. Shame on you for thinking otherwise.

[ferret6677]

but these people on youtube are sick. They see cops getting killed or beat up and they cheer. It's sad.

[mygoatisdead]

I'm not sticking up for criminals ok, I'm sticking up for the law which these cops clearly broke in the worst way. Look, the guy gave up, he's on the ground, so handcuff his ass and send him to jail. Would you stick up for the cop if he'd poured gasoline on the criminal lying on the ground and lit it?

Once you have cops that go above the law you have a very very dangerous society.

[ferret6677]

So if you watch another video of a felon beating up a cop or shooting him you are on the criminals side or the cop? These youtube idiots seem to think ALL cops are bad.

[mygoatisdead]

I know a lot think all cops are bad, I don't, I apologize if I seemed like I did. Bad cops infuriate me more than criminals I have to admit though, and in my town (Los Angeles), there's been a lot of police corruption in the news, completely documented and nobody did anything about it for years because cops hide behind the "blue line of silence".

Anyway, sorry I got uppity, it was late last night, now it's morning, and I get more riled up late night LOL. Take care. ...

[reuzer500]

Now that was excessive force. Kicking him in the face? He was already down and looking up at the officer for confirmation of his position.

[ferret6677]

How about a guy who breaks into an old ladies house and rapes and beats her? Do you care about the people the criminals hurt in worse ways?

[donniebrasco24]

that cop should ease up on his cocaine consumption

[AtomBombLullaby]

Kick him again! Do no run from the police! Idiots!

[fextriplex]

This happens in LA???? Nooooo way... pfffft Post a video that doesnt happen only everyday in LA.

[OregonGrown541]

doesnt matter if he was an immigrant, cops shouldnt get away with this shit but they do

[DrumTent]

This Illegal IMMIGRANT, gang member piece of trash deserved that and more.

[gothenburgmark]

TOTAL POLICE BRUTALITY!!

And guess what, he WILL file a lawsuit if he has not yet, and he WILL win. And guess who will pay for his multi-million dollar lawsuit? US taxpayers...you and I.

He totally surrendured, on ground, sprawled, totally still, hands and feet out= NO THREAT to police, yet the police after the fact, kick him and hit him with club? WTF! These police should be fired, then get jail, if it has not already happened!

[nickandapple]

superplay. you are so fuckin ignorant I think I am waisting my time just telling you how much of a fuckin retard you are. I hope your wife gets raped in front of you and your children slip under a tire on their way to school.

[superplay11]

And this comment isn't ignorant?

[cochesegt]

"waisting your time" uhm, your getting fatter telling him this? hahaa

[ItzMeEric]

I think you're wasting too much time on Youtube. Rather than going to school an getting an education.

[biggiebking]

to do what be a fucing police officer to be able to beat people standuyp for rights asshole or are you a cop to

[ItzMeEric]

Biggiebking, first of all I'm not a cop. And I'll keep this short, the previous comment I've made refers to you. Go figure.

[markx42000]

Why do people get so emotional over youtube comments?

[JABZzify]

man what a pussy kick him while he is down learn how to fucking fight you pink eye

[Finboyy]

Ahhhh.. f**king Piiiiigs

[spartanses]

If there were no police there would be no one to control the law. If there were no police, youd already be robbed, raped or murdered, including some of your family members.

[horismoku]

i can protect and serve myself my friends and family better than these power trippin' slime can fuck cops and the corperate "government" they work for they serve the banks and prtect the money is the only thing they do anymore

[400lbGuerrilla]

The shepherd replied, "Because, my boy, it is in his nature. The wolf would rather kill a little lamb and go hungry, than work for his meal. Careful, the wolf approaches."

[400lbGuerrilla]

One day I saw a shepherd tending to his flock of sheep, when a wolf came calling. The wolf was cunning and quick, and quickly killed one of the lambs. The shepherd, trying to protect his flock, beat the wolf with his cane until the wolf retreated into the woods. This same event happened for several weeks, the wolf would kill a lamb, and the shepherd would beat the wolf back. Then I asked the shepherd, "Why does the wolf keep killing these defenseless lambs, but never eats?"

[redthumbking]

One day a little red troll read a youtube comment by a an over educated ineffectual who's confused an intellect with a ready list of Aesops or other obscure and tenuously connected stories.

In case you missed it:

SHUT UP YA FUCKHEAD!!!!

[400lbGuerrilla]

HA! Hey Redtumb. why don't stick one red thumb up your ass and then one in your mouth, and then play "Switch". Fucktard!

[DrumTent]

duh.

[csmagdal]

HMMM....Take another rip off the bong, bro!!!

[Wingnutspankah]

The fattened pig waddles into his paddock after a long day. He senses a presence, something is wrong, maybe he was wrong....He hears something, he makes his way through into the relative safety of the barn, he yearns for the cool concrete floor. Just as he gets through the door BANG a mallet crushes his skull. He is not dead, blood fills his eyes ,...he looks up as the farmer brings the mallet down one more time. This is life on the farm you see, the pig gets to fat, too dangerous he dies.

[primate4]

GGGGGGooooooaaaaalllllll! 3 points.  the kick is good. I hope he was wearing steel toe :)

[gadson45]

Im not that surprised.

Anyone whos ever met a cop will agree that it takes a special kind of asshole to be a cop.

[superplay11]

Who cares he kicked a criminal, its not like it was a person who mattered! Kick em more!!

[speedtrapp28]

True and you will see more and more scumbag lovers come in here to defend the criminal who has victimized countless people.

[pwlover91]

O---kay....what's wrong with this picture? The suspect is already on the ground a good kick to the head while your there.....this is our police of the day???

Seiously what is wrong with them?.

[primate4]

The kick is good, 3 points! :)

[Clean9898]

Fuck the criminal! This guy is a parolee and gang member. I only wish the rest of us could be there to kick him in the head too! Good job police.

[flamingmigerusan]

Standard cop behavior, nothing more

[dmanfahy]

ice-t sung it best ..smoked pork

[miraxell]

Fucking bitch. Fuck the police motherfuckers.

[Oilersfan26]

Brutal.

[foundoutthat]

holy shit, that cop is obviously on paid or nonpaid leave pending wrong doing? I mean shit, if that cop is not under investigation i'll personally call the AACP.

[juanito0016]

Omg.

[JUZ75V]

another soccer fan lol

[VronRN2]

Awful.. AWFUL!! That was so un-called for by the police. Thanks for posting this.

[shawnlalanne]

Nice "screen shot".
