What a beating they laid on this guy...

[Creepusmaximus]

He deserved what he got.

Exactly. Justice is to be meted out AFTER the trial, not before.

I agree.

In this country the police don't have the right to beat people, regardless of what crime they committed.

If he murdered a cop, he'll likely get life or death penalty anyway........so why beat him?

Police lose all credibility when they pull this type of shit.

I hope the cops who did it get slapped with a major lawsuit, and Providence Police Dept. as well.....

I'm not standing up for the guy, I'm actually standing up for the cops........they make themselves look bad when they do this.... The bring scrutiny from all types of organizations and bad publicity. The damage that a lawsuit may bring to the city just isn't worth beating this guy......his life is already pretty much over for killing the cop.

I love the hypocrisy in this world.

When cops beat up certain criminals -- they're labelled criminals, power trippers, assholes, no good wannabee tough guys with badges.

And then they beat up a certain criminal -- now they're commended for it.

The law doesn't dictate to cops in the academy: "These are the people you beat the crap of, these are the people you don't".

If you allow the cops to do this -- then no one should complain when they beat up some guy who led them on a 20 minute car chase the next week. Unless you want to go to your congressman to draft laws on "which" criminals should get a beatdown and which shouldn't.

The city's gonna get a $20 million lawsuit. The victim's gonna get some high-powered NAACP-paid for, black lawyer. The inexperienced rhode island DA's gonna freak. They'll probably settle in exchange for leniere sentencing for the victim, like 2nd degree or something. parole in 20. All cops fired.

That's the state of things.......and yes I agree with you on all counts.

This shit is too easy to see, I'm just amazed the cops don't think these things out beforehand. You don't risk losing your job, being possibly prosecuted yourself for a mere 20 minutes of payback on some criminal.

Sure you beat him up real good, swole his eyes shut.......all that did was bolster his case, and you helped him.

And worse..

They did it to a BLACK guy!

White cops beating up black kid. That shit is GOLD for the media! You can spinoff tons of specials and reports off that. "Bad white cops beating up blackie prisoner" sells tons of newspapers.

If it was some white redneck -- no one would've cared. There's no Redneck Action Committee that'll pay for some high-priced lawyer who'll appear on CNN's Larry King for him every night.

Dumb cops. Dumb dumb dumb.

They're damn lucky no one was there with a videotape.

I agree with you on alot of things.........just wish you didn't use racial terms like "blackie".....It kind of takes away from your argument when you do that.

I was giving an example of how the media views these incidents. Everything is racial to them. Young White attractive man killing young white attractive female is page 1 news. Illegal Hispanic man killing fat hispanic female is page 17.
