This is the problem that I am having these days with some of these Cop Watch Organizations. We all know that Police abuse of citizens is drastically increasing across this country and it needs to be addressed. Using videos like this in my opinion does nothing but lend credibility to the opinion that we are hollering over pretty much nothing. In the first place when a cop tells you that you are under arrest, you dont make an ass out of yourself by saying No I am NOT Thats something a 6 year old would say. This man doesnt have a leg to stand on and he clearly doesnt have a clue how to deal with situations like this. There is no way to tell from this video if the arrest was legal or not, but you dont deal with false arrest physically in the street and expect to not get your ass kicked. If he introduces this video as evidence of his innocence, he is dead in the water. This video clearly shows his utter and complete refusal to submit to arrest and it shows the cops using legal and reasonable force to overcome that resistance and take him into custody. We are NEVER going to fix ANYTHING as long as idiocy like this is held up as an example of police abuse, it isnt!!
