Poor videos? The victim is CLEARLY laying face down, cuffed, and most importantly NOT resisting in any way. There is absolutely ZERO justification for ANY type of force to be applied at that time. None whatsoever. Nada. Zilch.

Is this some kind of a joke?
What's disturbing to me is when someone who so clearly DOESN'T have any street or 'tactical' experience sits there and defends a cop who is so obviously and blatantly in the wrong. I mean seriously, this cop is 10 bells wrong. This is not just slightly over the line, this is blatantly over the top incompetent (or cold blooded, take your choice).
Are you really seriously defending the murderer who is caught red-handed on tape, or are you just screwing with us?
Gross misconduct/criminal negligence doesn't get any more clear or egregious than this. I guess some people hate the poor so much they'll make any excuse to justify the A) Cold blooded, or B) Grossly negligent shooting of one.
Replace the inner city darkie with a suburban white kid named Chad, and you'd be all over these cops, wouldn't you?
