Discussion: NH Guv Demands Investigation Into Police Beating Of Car Chase Suspect

I live a town or two over. The prevailing redneck opinion is dude got what he deserved. “He shouldn’t have run from the cops, they wouldn’t be kicking his ass if he’d stopped.” As though somehow a retribution beat-down is a legitimate use of force. The fact that these cops think it’s justified to kick the crap out of a compliant surrendering perpetrator (I won’t call him a suspect, he did it), is the tragic part. How far has this blind acceptance of “respect ma athoritay” gone? Ask any of the dozens of dead unarmed black kids how far it’s gone. Note for yourself how many cops have been indicted for this type behavior. Makes me sick.

This will certainly be investigated by the highest authorities, up to the Governor, because he’s white. The cops are so used to beating on minorities, they forgot to check his privilege before committing Assault Under Color Of Authority. Until there is an attitude of Zero Tolerance on unnecessary police violence, even godfearing white folks will be at risk. Oh the horror!
