Is anyone else disgusted as I am with the latest police brutality that happened in New Orleans?? If you check out CNN.com you can see the video that recorded the whole event.

bang head bang head bang head

I am! The poor guy was 64 and from what I saw he was NOT resisting arrest. I understand that they are under a lot of pressure and all but that was COMPLETELY uncalled for - pathetic really. I saw him on CNN last night, and he was saying that he had no animosity towards them - HOW I don't know.... blank stare

i guess the officer's are stating that they never punched him in the head, just in the back and shoulder as is procedure. HA! you can see them clearly punching him in the back of the head and then his head hitting the building.

Right? It's so obvious that they're hitting him in the head. Not only can u see it in the video, but it's visible in his injuries.

I saw the guys interview and he was claiming he asked the officers about a curfew then they started beating him.

Seems to me theres something fishy there. There has got to be some missing steps in there. It couldnt have gone from asking a question to getting your ass beat instantly for no reason. I suspect there may have been some $hit talk back and forth first by both parties.

In the interview he said he was asking the officers about a curfew then a police officer interupted him while he was talking to the mounted officer.

The old guy didn't like being interupted and said so, probably rudely, and got his ass beaten for not showing respect to the cops.

The cops in NOLA are crooked. Everyone I know has some kind of story of bribery or getting hustled by the cops down there.

they're also the lowest paid cops in the US.

looks like coulter agrees with the beating of the older black man.

the light shines bright on you.

oh, i totally agree that there is definately something Davis is not saying... but no matter what was said was it necessary for the police to beat him like that.

i love how the officer on the horse just tries to block everyone's view of the beating... blank stare

A fat donut munching cop who wants you to "Respect his Authoritah"?

Or a badly drawn cartoon that makes me laugh my (_)_) off?

How? Because they just wrote him a ticket to a comfy retirement, that's how.
