Welcome to the safer version of America, now we're going to murder your Polish ass.

Jaline, please don't act like you haven't berated the violent nature of america regularly on this site. it's appalling. you have also chatised, as well as poke jabs at me in regards to my gun ownership, though i only use firearms in the safety and setting of a shooting range that has never prevented you from alluding otherwise, like you even know.
so we've learned today that your country fears what it does not understand, not only that, it kills it.
don't act like any of this is my fault

the RCMP officer was ramming his baton into the man...
Jaline
(Nov 15 07, 14:03)indeed. I don't get that part either. but he seems to be ramming the floor and not the person? He seems to club on the floor and not where the man stands, imo.
To me it seems like he's beating the floor to control him or to get his attention.
It's ... well I don't know... to be honest I don't think any police officer in the world would beat the crap out of a defenceless person. It could happen in a war zone, in an embassy, but in Vancouver?
what is the menace?
I think this episode was an accident no doubt. But exceeding use of force was also present.

Oh man, no words, simple stuff. For that was more desperate than three electricians soldering gold to the back of one's teeth.

Justin, this is like the 3rd+ time you've been very adamant about how Canada is not better than the USA.
When it comes to guns, I usually just talk about how I don't like them, personally. That doesn't mean law enforcement officials can't have them.
I don't recall ever personally saying that what you are doing is "wrong".
And don't patronize me.

(Nov 15 07, 14:19)actually we learned that all cops are cops no matter what flag they have on their body armor

Witt, I think the officer was just condensing (or whatever you call it) his baton. There are various levels to it, from short to long. I'm not sure about the technical side of it.

"sorry I accidentally tasered him 4 times."

there's a video of toronto police surrounding a guy with a knife in the street yelling at him guns drawn...then a police car comes up behind him and chases him onto the side of the raod pinning him against a parking meter and then he just drops the knife no questions asked. best way to disarm someone, they could have shot him ten times and no one would give a shit because he had a knife.

(Nov 15 07, 14:13)Nah. but you people scare the hell out of me. Y'all always talking about guns and shootings and crazy shit like that.
Not Vancouver though. It's my dream place. Maybe one day.
New York does scare me a bit when I think of booking a flight to visit alone. I've been postponing that journey for a while, but if things keep steady around here I will visit NY next year or the next-after-that-one without exception.
I'm gathering more money to visit Canada/N America because I know it's an expensive place and a big thing, and I need 3-4 months leave/vacation to cross it properly by train.
In fact, It needs a year or a life, or just a love.
Who can tell?
I will do it as soon as I'm able to.

looking at the video more, looks like the cop's knee to the neck probably killed the polish guy.
Police brutality is police brutality though.

(Nov 15 07, 15:14)well if i'm not in your ignore list... I think he just had an heart attack from the 50k volts pushed on his body 2 or 3 fold. That's enough to fry you even without police on your neck.
- mrdobolina0
witt, you would never be on my ignore list.
you may be right though.
- Witt0
well I don't think those taser guns can hold 50k volts charge. That's impossible without lighting the whole neighbourhood or being dead just by holding it.
Something stinks major balls in this story.
And a video doesn't solve it.
