@33yoshimi Yeah the guy broke the law, but if excessive force is used it can lead to an acquital or case dismission, which means he is back on the street. However, there was plenty of time while the cop moved into position to knock him off his bike, which would have let me stop it and not risk screwing the pooch.

That cop was already on the move to push him or anyone for that matter he was just weighing up which one he could get to and that guy was the unlucky one........who says he stole a purse??
-
@33yoshimi Any Police are not the LAW but the enforcer of the LAW. That is why Police are also known as LAW ENFORCER.

he deserved to be on the floor. a cop throwing him in the floor is the least he deserves. i was there, he would have a gotten some lead on the knee cap.
-
@RP4409 so what should the cop have done?
-
@RP4409 you're am idiot you're not going to die from being pushed off the bike. furthermore the guy if he took the purse was on a bike, thus pushing him off seemed like a good option.
-
@RP4409 if someone stole my wife or mothers purse, they would be lucky if all they got was hit in the head with a rock... put your tinfoil hat back on, 4409

cyclist should get a lawyer if he was just part of the event. now if he was a suspect... well it was deserved.

@RP4409 Normally I agree with a lot of your stuff, but not so much with this. The officers need to stop him somehow, they arent just going to let him get away, technically he does have the right to knock him off the bike as its his job to stop the criminal. Sometimes you need to get a little rough. If they didnt stop him like that then it would be almost impossible to find the guy in NYC on a bike. Its not all happiness and giggles in this world, sometimes officers need to bring people down.
If he did steal a purse then the cop had the right, but if he didnt, no way that cop should wear a badge.

@shinyshiny82 ....he does NOT have the "right" to commit battery and almost kill someone over a purse.
If I thought you just stole a purse is it alright for me to bust you upside the head with a rock? If not alright for him either just because he wears a goofy costume with a shiny badge.
Their job is to apprehend with the least amount of force necessary considering the totality of the circumstances. Purse snatching does not rise to the level of slamming someone's head on the concrete.

@RP4409 shoot,taser or push him off his bike? seems justified to me what the copper did. He is the law. That guy stole a purse. It is a crime. The guy was on a bike and could escape if the copper question him. So, again. He apprehended the guy, non of the public were hurt except THE GUY WHO BROKE THE LAW.
