my problem with the mcdonalds commercial is that it doesn't actually say what people want it to. There's nothing underhanded or anything, I'm sure the people who made it thought it actually conveyed the message of "be yourself here, it's safe". And if it actually did that, it'd be great.
However... that's not what it conveys.
What it conveys by the actual scenario is "yeah... you can't tell your dad you're gay here, either."
as for self respecting gay men and big macs... glad I'm a self respecting bi. genderqueer whose poison of choice is quarter pounders...
oh and this is kind of fucking awesome. Hopefully the guy gets WB to give him the money and stays out of his way...

Okay. PR, I was just checking which of the usual it was.
A) Crazy Trolling
B) unfunny jokes
C) Random Predjudice or otherwise conservative bullshit.
Personally, I was kinda hoping to discover a D.

1. Why doesn't the cop have a partner?
2. Why isn't the suspect handcuffed at 0:32-0:34, immediately following the use of force ?

I don't understand where a bodily push that was meant to disentangle the woman and the cop deserves retaliation of a punch.

Most police operate solo beats. The only pairings I know of on the west coast are for training or incidental... It's a cost thing, mostly. Most police in the west coast cities cannot afford to live in the cities they patrol.

Well, people in the Seattle PD can definitely live in the city, they apparently make pretty good money. If law enforcement was something I had any interest in whatsoever it might have been worth looking into further.

Shoving a police officer generally warrants a smack.

I'm guessing he's a rookie cop. A more experienced officer would have had the situation taken care of in a few seconds and would have resorted to non-face punches.

Police officers are not in the business of meting out punishment. So punching someone that 'deserves it' is outside of their line of duty.
Police should be punished more severely for violating the sacred trust of protecting the public.

I think that the officer should have been able to handle that better. If he had the time, he should have just called in for back up and been reasonably able to hold the lady down if he needed to without punching her (deserving or not, which I think she deserved it). Don't they train officers in how to restrain people?

If you actually watch the video, you will see that he is a single officer attempting to arrest some lady, when an entirely separate lady attempts to prevent him from arresting her, and the first lady is still resisting arrest.
So what you are actually expecting is for a lone cop to singlehandly restrain two people resisting arrest by himself, without resorting to force.
That's... not going to happen.
Frankly, the fact that it's a "jaywalking" offense that started the whole thing to me indicates the cop trying to pull something over, which may have lead to him bringing out the wrong kind of excessive force too quickly. But what exactly the correct response to two people both beating up on a cop to resist arrest is, I'm not sure. Especially since the people filming, at least some of them, where filming before hand, indicating in general that he was in a hostile situation which could have turned much worse.

Even if we go to cops dishing out as well as deserved, I think there needs to be a parallel in actions.
A push doesn't require a punch. A punch is some serious force and especially applied to the face.
Also how does being filmed mean he is in a hostile situation? Please explain?

Big Brother is us.

> Kaelik wrote:If you actually watch the video, you will see that he is a single officer attempting to arrest some lady, when an entirely separate lady attempts to prevent him from arresting her, and the first lady is still resisting arrest.

According to the local news, there were four women there. The cop radioed for help but none arrived in time.
Police response justified with video commentary.
To those "pro-Black" groups that think the officer's response was unacceptable, I would like to ask, "What should he have done? In the same situation, how would you react?"

> Kaelik wrote:Frankly, the fact that it's a "jaywalking" offense that started the whole thing to me indicates the cop trying to pull something over, which may have lead to him bringing out the wrong kind of excessive force too quickly.

Reading the originaly story, I didn't get the impression that the guy wanted to arrest the women for jaywalking (can you even do that?). But cite them for it? Hell, yes. Around here (though I live an hour south, so take my word for what it's worth), there is a lot of enforcement for the safety of pedestrians - both in the jaywalking department (the women were 15 feet from a pedestrian overpass), and in the cars who don't stop for pedestrians. And the road they were on is a major street (that's why they have an overpass).

There's quite a crowd that shows up in that video.

If it was anywhere but Washington, that would be suspect. When I was sent on a business trip to Seattle, I was warned not to jaywalk, because it carries a huge fine there and is enforced like crazy.

Eeeeeeh, sorta. It's true there's a big fine, but I've never heard of anyone I know (and it's certainly never happened to me) getting a ticket for jaywalking. It's not like it's something that we actively worry about. Of course I'm pretty sure that most of my acquaintances don't try and run across the middle of four lane major streets all that often.

Seattle police are like LA police, just have been caught beating black people less often. I often wonder if that is true of most core police departments.

Down here in Oly, they have a cute little moped/minimotorcycle thing that they chase you with if you're caught jaywalking. It usually only happens on the main streets of downtown, but when the department needs extra cash...
My son makes me laugh. Maybe he'll make you laugh, too.
