I’m usually the typical “cop-hater” but after watching the video and reading about what happened, this loud-mouthed punk kid deserved what he got.

The cops come to the lobby to check up on a reported fight. This dumb kid starts yelling crap at the cops so that he can look like a real toughguy in front of his friends. When the cops approach the elevator Mr. Toughguy decides he wants to keep talking crap and challenge the cops to a fight. When the cop approaches Mr. Toughguy, he decides to get in the officer’s face like he wants to fight (As can be clearly seen in the video). The punk gets an butt whooping he won’t ever forget. Good for the cops.

Some lawyer in Broward County is already preparing a statutory notice of intent to sue to send to the Fort Lauderdale PD. In due course suit will be filed, discovery conducted and lots of money paid out by the taxpayers. The responsible officers will be disciplined and the case will be settled in the “public interest” without an admission of any wrongdoing by the police. Until it is finalized, expect police department spokesmen to be in perpetual spin mode.

Typical Police procedure…..To the idiot who made the Sharpton remark…you are right Black people will raise a stink because we are tired of taking these azz whippins by white cops…..Let me be clear there are lots of good cops out there but like in any other arena there are azzholes. My advice to people out there, dont do crimes and you dont have to worry about cops. For everyday folks just do whats asked and if you have issue take it up in court. Bottom line America cops will beat your azz if you resist……..how many beating do you have to watch. If the cops says shut up and move on do it, may save you a youtube butt whippin…….LOL

Florida is very like Texas with mostly nicer weather. Yhat is why it’s Fark.com’s only separate category of bizarre news that is reserved for a State alone. As a lifelong New Yorker who has come here to live it sometimes feels like the “Wild West.”

“If this had been a balck man there would be charges of racism and Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson would be holding press conferences and would srtage marches on police headquarters.

Who is going to defend this man?”

We call them lawyers — and they predate Jackson and Sharpton.

Buddha,
When I read this posting, I knew it had to be either in Texas or Florida and sure enough, Florida is doing its best to outdo The Lone Star state. These policemen should be looking for work in a different profession, after they get out of jail. But, as we said earlier, this is Florida so I am guessing a commendation is in the cards for these two.

Florida.

The Texas of the East Coast.

Enjoy having the ACLU on your ass, Broward County.
