Usually I can somewhat see the officers side in these situations. But THIS here is disgusting, it's just Blatant use of Excessive Force. Police
Brutality in it's most simplest form.
Not only did he tackle this 15 year old girl on a full run, he left his feet while doing so and drilled her (which is a major penalty in some grown
mens most violent contact sports) He also stiff arms her in the face as she turns around, and he's flying through the air with all of his momentum and
I'd guess 220 lbs of force behind it.
Not all cops are bad, but this guy with the shaved head and "The I'm out to kick some a$$ tonight" sunglasses, makes up a good majority of police
officers. They we're usually the drunken Jock, Bully all the smaller kids...a-holes you remeber from Highschool, that couldn't do anything after he
graduated except get paid to be a bully.
What in the world was this jack off thinking? The best cops have more patience than this. I don't care what the situation was that we might not know
about, this cop was in the wrong.
If the girl was a serious enough threat to warrant that sort of violence...this cop should have followed procedure, and pulled out his tazer, and made
his presence clear, and not approach her.
If she wasn't a serious threat he should have walked up to her and talked to her, while keeping a bit of a distance.
So yea I can't thing of ANY situation that warrants an all out running full speed, open feild spear tackle into a concrete wall/sidewalk.
If I was his boss, he'd be fired.
If I was that girls family..., he'd have been sue'd.
When I see stuff like this I just think....More Police Officers need to learn Gracie Jiu Jitsu. (Military style training just doesn't work for police
officers, it actually makes them worse officers, as they are not in warzones; although the cop in the cvideo acted like he was in one).
Ryron and Rener are teaching it to as many police in the world as they can, but they are only two men.Jiu-Jitsu is so much more tailored for LEO's
who's job is to "SERVE and PROTECT".
If this cop was even a Blue Belt in GJJ this altercation would have most likely
A) Never would have become physical
or
B) If the girl turned around and violently started swinging at the Cop, He would have been able to secure her in any number of holds that would
protect himself, as well as the girl, while keeping his weapon securely away from her hands (if she was really Crazy).
So any police officers reading this. Look up GracieAcademy on you-tube, and learn the most effective, and least dangeous ways to subdue and secure a
person in a street confrontation.
They also have a "Bullyproof" system (which has been shown on major news networks) for kids that are being bullied in school. It's amazing if I had
young kids, I would be teaching them it.
They also have a DVD course geared for Woman with guaranteed proven ways to escape from sexual predators. It's amazing, girls check those
out.
