I think you need to go to specsavers as you saw something totally different in the video that was posted

well if Jean-Claude Van Damme worked for american law enforcement, they might have someone qualified to do that

but lol i can't see regular cops doing that

You don't jump kick someone who is complying and not resisting. That officer did it to provoke a reaction because who wouldn't react if someone kicked them in the back for no reason? To try to spin that video to make the victim the bad guy is just insane.

Racist white people tell black people to comply with the police and when they do and still get attacked, it's still their fault in those racists' eyes.

They’re saying the quiet part out loud now

[LeatherTrumpet]

The International Association of Chiefs of Police has described use of force as the "amount of effort required by police to compel compliance by an unwilling subject"

Officers receive guidance from their individual agencies, but no universal set of rules governs when officers should use force and how much.

It stands to reason that armchair quarterbacks will know better from scant video clips but that is to be expected and ignored by the Great American voting public

Trump enjoys the division, he thrives on the hatred and he condones the murder of people who disagree with his disastrous handling of America, he knows he and his cronies are radicalising citizens to do his their bidding, he’s a clear and present danger not only to democracy, but to national security and safety.

[LeatherTrumpet]

Yes theb actions of violent criminal extreme left thugs all over America is playing right into Mr Tump's hands as he is the LAw and order ticket

[Liam-]

Law and order ticket, yet he constantly breaks laws in plain sight, the only thing he’s good at is gaslighting

[Tom4784]

He also broke several laws in office but the republicans let him off since he 'learned his lesson' (Spoiler alert: he did not).

The end result is the name in either situation so it doesn’t really matter?

Plus, eye witness reports and photo evidence show that it was an unmarked police car that had trump supporters that were being escorted somewhere

how does photo evidence of an unmarked policecar work?

What was the end result? I looked around and there haven't been any reported injuries.

How did they know they were Trump supporters? Were they wearing MAGA hats or something.

It's all just hearsay. Obviously the driver was wrong, either way, but if it was just a regular NY resident trying to get somewhere i can understand their frustration by being blocked.

Hang on... the guy shot 7 times in the back is alive?!

Were the police using a water pistol? Only joking, that's good news.

He survived but he’s now paralysed from the waist down

More extreme right wing violence on peaceful protesters at the hands of Trump supporting thugs, when will the president speak out against this?
