First off, there was no blood. The red that you see is actually the pepper spray on his shirt. There were also 2 other males that were right across the street and had ducked down into the woods. This officer was out there by himself with the dangers of the two (possibly) lurking nearby. I do not know what the extenuating circumstances are that allowed this to get where it did, so I can't comment on the "justifications" of the officer.
Caught this COP in action today while out on the road...

HaHa, your cops have got balls in the States, here in U.K. there would have to be a dozen of them just to challenge a black man.
The first would politely ask him to stop running, whilst the rest are preparing a nice cup of tea and some biscuits to refresh him. Providing he stops running of course, which he won't.
Think yourselves lucky you've got a police force who actually do " Protect and serve " They are a credit to the Unitd States.

lonewolf4ad and Working Class Patriot Thank this. -
This is the kind of thread that seems to attract all the trolls and other people of ill intent...the same reason no one talks on the CB radio no more...
People who just want to agitate and annoy and hurt others with inhumane comments...
I don't expect any logic or reason or love to come from this thread...just comments that appeal to peoples lower instincts...there's nothing contructive for me here no more...I said my peace...
So let me step out of the way before and while the feeding frenzy of ignorance begins...
Have at it and feed into all your fears...justify it however you may...I would expect nothing less of carnal man... -
I guess the real person who would know this is quickdodge but, from what I am seeing in the pictures is that the officer could have been yelling commands at him and keeping his stance in case he needs to strike the guy again. If you look at the last pic. the officer is right handed (of course) but look at his stance. If he needs to strike this guy again he will be striking him on the side of his shoulder which is propped higher than his head. The fact that makes the officer look like hes striking is because that maybe, mybe he is like that because he doesnt want to hit the guy in the head. There are certain parts on the body that is considered a lethal hit, I have police training and have been in these situations, This officer was ready to strike him, if needed, on the guys shoulder side instead of chancing the head. On top of that in my exp. the smaller they are the more pissed they get and more harder to control. Plus the guy who got sprayed probably maxed out his adrenaline as well, which is harder to control. Ghostchild speak all you want and hide/defend or whatever for the guy, but Like I said only quickdodge knows the best from all of us on what happened. MN just lost a fine outstanding officer the other day because he was doing what he was hired to do, Protect and serve. He responded to a domestic and it turns out that he was shot by the male for doing his job. I have worked with and actually knew a couple of officers that have passed doing there job. I think I will stop here as I now am too emotional to continue.
road dust and lonewolf4ad Thank this. -

Just being on your knees does NOT mean you are no longer a threat. Frankly, after attempting to escape, and then attempting to assault the officer, this guy will cease to be a threat only after he is cuffed, and it doesn't look like he's making it easy to be cuffed.
anyway, Chris Rock has some advice for him

Was this directed to me; calling me a troll? How do you figure? This took place right in front of me, as I was driving my truck. I'm hardly a troll on the site.
That is the case. As I was passing by, the officer WAS yelling commands and was poised to strike, but was not at that time. I don't know what transpired from that point on.shriner75 Thanks this.
