I want to be a police officer, and I do believe the four guys who were actually involved were wrong for what they did. Very unprofessional. It is sad that only two of the guys went to prison and the other two were aquitted of all charges.
You can say he should of done this and should have done that but none of it excuses a beating like that. The man is on the floor, fucked up, can't defend himself yet they continually beat him with their sticks. Fucking animals and if you try to defend their actions your a fucking animal too, no, your not even an animal cos an animal wouldn't even do it, you disgust me.
@stevenr9999, yes, they were just doing they're job. Yes they were pissed. But that does not call for EXCESSIVE VIOLENCE! Doing your job is one thing, but taking your frustration out on someone who is clearly out numbered and intoxicated is just wrong. Bottom line, whoever thought this was a righteous bust is a sad sack of shit. Fuck America.
This has nothing to do with the police, in actuality, this is simply 'Americans' doomed to kill themselves off eventually, crippled by their own lust for power, and enabled by stupidity!
The guy didn't have the camera on for the first half. Besides, if cops were to just stop doing their job all together. Half of you will be dead, why would you say "fuck the police" we'll see what happens when a Nigger is attacking you...
@Stevenr9999 Imagine if this cameraman walked up to the cops afterward and said "what you did was wrong, and I have it on this video". That's totally within his rights, right? I wonder what the response would be? Probably a lot like you see other places in the US, where the video disappears and the cameraman is suddenly facing a slew of charges. If you're for the police going beyond what they're allowed to do, you also have to be for what they have to do to innocent people to cover it up.
@Stevenr9999 shut the fuck up motherfucker; cops never protected me when i called them numerous times b/c my ex was beating the shit out of me. why? the cops always said, "he says he didn't do it, he doesn't know how you got those wounds, so there's nothing we can do. sorry". YOU'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A NIGGER IS ATTACKING YOU; ABOLUTELY NOTHING. BITCH.
@km5891 What should the cops have done? Arrested him? Ok then it gets to trial and its your word against his, you have to prove beyond reasonable doubt, a judge wouldnt look twice and throw the case out. Cops are people, some are ass holes, some are professionals and some dont give a shit. Youre ex sounds like a right cunt sure, but how many times do you stick a knife in a toaster before you stop blaming it for electrocuting you or blaming the electricity company for not shutting it off?
hmm, in the netherlands they are already starting with the young ones.(btw i think these things are really sadd) /watch?v=3nEvl5xgZMU&feature=related
Yes unbelievable! I was beat, shot multiple times with an electrical gun, and had an ordered police dog attack me aswell by the same Orange County Officers...Viewer Discretion is advised..."3/9/11"...20 years from the Rodney King Beating and four months before the Thomas Kelly beating/killing...My condolences to the Kelly family, I am truly sorry for your lost.
Dont argue on this video or be mad at the ignorant people who are making unfounded asinine comments. It's not worth it. We are only perpetuating the struggle by doing so. The video speaks for itself.
@gamehound83 george holliday is guilty of exposing the TRUTH, it was up to the DA, PROSECUTOR or JURY to get it right after that. If you want to say names you should print the cops names as the blame
Jesus Christ ! Most of the comments on this video are pathetically racist. SHAME ON THE POLICEMEN THAT DID THAT AND SHAME ON THOSE WHO DEFEND THAT KIND OF BEHAVIOURS !
I wish these police would have been in macon, ga. and responded to the call my wife made when the fucking nigger across the street tried to rape my wife, while I was in hospital
Those police got carried away, but I'm not sure this is very racist. Considering he was drunk, on drugs, and they had to chase him down with a helicopter.
@twin1010101010 Lol, you make me laugh, maybe because I take interest in World events? Also, why were you insulting America when your profile says you're from there? You have no points in this argument, and result to insults. Children do that, so hopefully you're under 16, if not, I feel embarrassed for you.
@twin1010101010 What are you even talking about? Your country is fucked, doesn't means anyone else's is, and besides just because the country is, doesn't mean the people are. Also, don't stereotype people. Out of the 60million people here, around 5,000 were out looting... I could easily claim that everyone in America did that during Hurricane Katrina, but they didn't, anyway nice to see you keep your stereotypes alive by believing everything you see on TV.
all you people saying you wanted to hit him is fucked up. you racist fucks. i say stuff jokin around, but like what the fuck. the cops that did it were innocent to. they deserve to be beaten and repeatedly kicked in the skull til they die.
them poor officers must have been so afraid that night because of that big dirty coon he could have killed them all they should have beat him more until he dead.
the guy didn't deserve the beating, no matter how you look at it. Cops are as bad as the bad guys, these days. LOOK AT INDIANA!! You can't even stop a cop from coming into your house FOR ANY REASON. I am NOT kidding. Google Indiana 4th amendment....
wtf...yeah rodney king is a piece of shit and fckd up by driving drunk and running away from the police, but the cops are suppose to be a proffessionals not a bunch of fucken thugs that beat people to death....and all the other fucks who are just standing there doing nothing are ass guilty as the ones doing the beating...WOW...theres always a bunch of assholes in every department that take away all the good stuff that true police officers do...
@Martin89HH It wasn't too, all peoples says on that case Rodney King was beaten cause is black and blablabla... But they missed the whole point. Fact is he was commited for a robbery, was drunked, made a cop chase on highway at 120 mph, and tried to resist when arrested. I would sympathise if he was really innocent.
sso I'm a caveman scumbag for calling it like it is? Race does not matter police brutality happens tob many people, rodney king is scum just like many others,and I said I was mexican to identify that I'm not some white boy that's a racist,and when you say "targeted" you mean its called profiling if it walks like a scum bag talks like a scum bag and acts like a scum bag its a scun bag, sooooo yea haha
I'm a person that serves my community and when I go on call I see that all races are accountable for doing stupid shit...forget about the color this man was obviously resisting and the fact that the camera man didn't film him resisting and only filmed the beating was bullshit, I agree the beating was brutal but think about it... they're in LA one of the most dangerous places in the world at that time, rodney king was just another scum bag, and like I said forget about the color I'm mexican
@Expchrisp - You called Rodney King a "scum bag". You claim you are 'mexican' as if that will make your comment make sense. Misrepresenting the latino community. Many latinos know what its like to be targeted and brutalized by the savage neanderthal "police". Did it every occur to you that you are the CAVEMAN SCUMBAG.
Thats why Blacks need to stick together. Stop the killing and violence towards each other. White man don't give a crap about us. If we start working together, we'll be running every bit of this country.
FUCK ALL YOU WHITE BITCHES YALL TALKING SHIT ON THE INTERNET BUT WONT SAY SHIT LIKE THAT TO NO BLACK PERSON IN REAL LIFE! I'LL KILL ALL YU HOES! BITCH IM RACES!
An obvious exersize of the camerman turning on the camera halfway through and leaving out the part where Rodney King did to deserve his beating. The man was no law abiding citizen to begin with. He was a junkie and a multiple felon.
@JoelDub Thats complete bullshit apparently you haven't heard of a thing called the LAW. Nobody deserves this from law enforcement. It doesn't matter what he did he is still human.
first off, police brutality is wrong, but why is geting beaten make someone who refused to pull over for police and rather lead them on a high speed chase through residental areas because he had violated his parole for a robbery a civil rights leader?
Physical attacks from the cops may have been justified for a very short time, but after about 10-15 seconds it just turned into hate. There are like seven cops there, he's on the ground. A couple of them should just have held him down while someone else cuffed him. Any real danger was totally gone and these scumbag cops should have gone to jail...
He Kept getting up! If he would have stayed down, he wouldn't have gotten beat. The only people who played the race card in this situation in the fucking NAACP, and that's all they are good for. If this had been a white man, the same thing would've happened. I see it happen all the time on COPS. Stay the fuck down you idiot!
i give the cops all rights for this.... the dude wasnt listening to the cops, he attacked the cops, what if he had a weapon? the cops r just supposed to let him get up and use it?? this isnt police brutality, its self defence
Look at all these keyboard warriors. Bet you wouldn't say that to a black person in real life. You'd get your pussy asses beat down. FYI. I'm a white Scottish guy. Farthest you can get from a Black American person. Just think racism in this day and age is idiotic. "HURRR DURR HIS SKIN COLOUR IS DIFFERENT FROM MINE IM GONNA HATE HIM!" I might start hating people without green eyes! :O GREEN EYED SUPREMACIST MOVEMENT!
@kinneas "Bet you wouldn't say that to a black person in real life. You'd get your pussy asses beat down. FYI." You're suggesting that all black people will respond to a a verbal challenge with physical violence. Just like with any other race, there are those who will respond with violence, those who will respond in kind with words, some who will try to be rational and deflate the situation, and those who will turn the other cheek. Don't make it seem like all black people are thugs, you racist.
If police feel threatened and give an order to "stay down" and he continually "gets up", he deserves it. He was an obvious threat. No one knew if he had a weapon.
@FreeBlago1 are you a retard or a scared little wimp, even if he had a weapon, if you were threatened by an injured guy laying down, and you had 20 mates around you you must be such a scared little wimp. i feel so sorry for you you scared little retard wimp...... thats why the rest of the world actually thought the riots were justified. i was ashamed to be white when i seen this
@eastwemyss Your right! And actually when people talk about different races their wrong. There is only one race, humans, there are different ethnic groups, but we are all the same race.
Nigga shouldn't have been resisting arrest. I would've whooped his ass too. Making me drive all over town because you want to be chased with yo crackhead ass.
@MrAnonymous341, Although, it might sound far fetched; all those questions can be summed up into one answer. She could have been covering for someone else. A possible family member?
who gives a fuck!! he wants to be a criminal then he can expect to be smacked by cops. If a heap of white people rioted because a case did nt go our way we would nt get away with it. And the only reason OJ the asshole got off is because they were scared of another L.A. riot, so there you go, looks like you won after all
@Softail4sale No human being should be treated this way regardless of their race or legal status. Correction, white people have rioted for centuries and have gotten away with it - example: lynchings, massacres of people of color, KKK, and etc. (I'm sure you get the picture). I believe OJ was guilty or at least had something to do with the murders, but he got off because they couldn't fully prove it but he's paying for it now. American history is F'd up, therefore nobody wins!
@poisonviper1 Speaking of George Holliday, why the fuck wasn't he trying to help him? I mean even if he was scared, he could have at least shouted "Stop!" or... I don't know, at least doing something. The thing about cops is that they're like people: there's good cops and bad cops. My dad's a cop, and he's the greatest man I've ever known. So when the cops are good, they're good. But when they're bad, they can be monsters.
Fact. Rodney king was a convicted armed robber. Fact. Rodney king was driving drunk at 117mph when he was pulled over. Fact. Drunk drivers kill a thousand americans a year. Fact he got we he deserved for putting his life, the life of innocent drivers and police officers lives at risk. Don't play the race card. If he killed your friend or family drunk driving u wud want him dead.
Cop: YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT! Rodney: Alright, Ok. Cop: I SAID SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU PIECE OF SHIT *Beats up Rodney* Rodney: Ugh.... Cop: Alright, hands on your head. Rodney: *puts hands on head* Cop: OH MY GOD, PHYSICAL ASSAULT! DIE YOU MOTHER FUCKER! *beats up Rodney some more* Rodney: What the hell, man? Cop: CURSING ON PUBLIC GROUNDS?!??! 90 YEARS IN PRISON! . Reporter: In other news, Rodney King has been arrested for being black. Pig news will return shortly.
@Jvizzlezz I love how everyone seems to think King was like an innocent victim, when he was a drunk wife beater who pulled an armed robbery not long before this happened. And has a long ass track record that spans over twenty years, including hitting his wife with a car, and even more drunk driving. Gee, you think after getting pulled over for drunk driving which resulted in cops beating you to within an inch of your life, you'd think twice before driving drunk again.
@Jvizzlezz Yo asshole, I got a question for you what if your dad or brother was one of the police officers who risked his life trying to chase this ''nice fella'' and instead of catching him, wound up dead due to the high speed chase? Would you still carry on with your name callings and all the other bullshit??
@Jvizzlezz I don't think you're following. The fact that they hate ''police brutality'' has nothing to do with either one having to chase a criminal and die along the way...
I don't understand the Cops reaction to this incident. This was just another drunk rolling around on the ground. They have 10 of these a day! All they had to do was swarm the guy and put hand cuffs or tie-wraps on him.
Also, Rodney Kings actions were consistent with having low blood sugar(diabetic). Even as a bad cop you dont beat the guy up until you know he's not diabetic.
You have 1 or 2 insane cops with a few others not wanting to step in and stop the others due to being subordinate.
There were how many officers in the scene what 2 or 3 maybe 4 get the point. And they could not get on top of the man to control him but rather they beat him with theirs sticks. Really were the man a real threat to what 2 or 3 maybe 4 cops. Get the point. And what if one of those hits would have reach the mans head, what would have been the excuse the guy try to get up really.

If I was the cop I would've been pissed off as well. That could've been my donut free time but now its gone chasing down this motherfucker.

@Expchrisp - You called Rodney King a "scum bag". You claim you are 'mexican' as if that will make your comment make sense. Misrepresenting the latino community. Many latinos know what its like to be targeted and brutalized by the savage neanderthal "police". Did it every occur to you that you are the CAVEMAN SCUMBAG.

Physical attacks from the cops may have been justified for a very short time, but after about 10-15 seconds it just turned into hate. There are like seven cops there, he's on the ground. A couple of them should just have held him down while someone else cuffed him. Any real danger was totally gone and these scumbag cops should have gone to jail...

@kinneas "Bet you wouldn't say that to a black person in real life. You'd get your pussy asses beat down. FYI." You're suggesting that all black people will respond to a a verbal challenge with physical violence. Just like with any other race, there are those who will respond with violence, those who will respond in kind with words, some who will try to be rational and deflate the situation, and those who will turn the other cheek. Don't make it seem like all black people are thugs, you racist.

@Softail4sale No human being should be treated this way regardless of their race or legal status. Correction, white people have rioted for centuries and have gotten away with it - example: lynchings, massacres of people of color, KKK, and etc. (I'm sure you get the picture). I believe OJ was guilty or at least had something to do with the murders, but he got off because they couldn't fully prove it but he's paying for it now. American history is F'd up, therefore nobody wins!

@poisonviper1 Speaking of George Holliday, why the fuck wasn't he trying to help him? I mean even if he was scared, he could have at least shouted "Stop!" or... I don't know, at least doing something. The thing about cops is that they're like people: there's good cops and bad cops. My dad's a cop, and he's the greatest man I've ever known. So when the cops are good, they're good. But when they're bad, they can be monsters.

Fact. Rodney king was a convicted armed robber. Fact. Rodney king was driving drunk at 117mph when he was pulled over. Fact. Drunk drivers kill a thousand americans a year. Fact he got we he deserved for putting his life, the life of innocent drivers and police officers lives at risk. Don't play the race card. If he killed your friend or family drunk driving u wud want him dead.

@Jvizzlezz I love how everyone seems to think King was like an innocent victim, when he was a drunk wife beater who pulled an armed robbery not long before this happened. And has a long ass track record that spans over twenty years, including hitting his wife with a car, and even more drunk driving. Gee, you think after getting pulled over for drunk driving which resulted in cops beating you to within an inch of your life, you'd think twice before driving drunk again.

I don't understand the Cops reaction to this incident. This was just another drunk rolling around on the ground. They have 10 of these a day! All they had to do was swarm the guy and put hand cuffs or tie-wraps on him.
Also, Rodney Kings actions were consistent with having low blood sugar(diabetic). Even as a bad cop you dont beat the guy up until you know he's not diabetic.
You have 1 or 2 insane cops with a few others not wanting to step in and stop the others due to being subordinate.

There were how many officers in the scene what 2 or 3 maybe 4 get the point. And they could not get on top of the man to control him but rather they beat him with theirs sticks. Really were the man a real threat to what 2 or 3 maybe 4 cops. Get the point. And what if one of those hits would have reach the mans head, what would have been the excuse the guy try to get up really.
