nice catch dog i wonder how he is bred.. what kind of hobbles were they using?

[Dirtydog]

Those cops should be fired... Talk about unnecessary ! Americas FINEST... sorry a$$ cops.

[Hogsnatchers]

My thoughts exactly I would have been trying to get away to with all that bs goin on.

[Purebreedcolt]

U run from the cops you deserve to be taken down and taken down HARD also if you listen dispatch says shots fired think he got just what he deserved well probably not near enough of it but

[halfbreed]

hell that weren't nothing . i been whooped up on and arrested quite a few times in my youth . never once thought about suing . deserved every knott they put on my head . this is whats wrong with america bunch of pansys ooooh the mean ol policeman hit me cause i deserved it . i'm gonna sue boo hooo . he got what he deserved . or maybe they should a give him an icecream cone an a time out

NO American should be treated with that amount of force. Clearly theres a fine line between to much and just enough. The police have the final decision because its THEIR life being threatened. This is brutal to say the least, this type of police brutality needs to be dealt with by the same measures that you or i would be held against in a self defense case. Also id say that dog's handler needs to be fired. That dog on the other hand was a beast and given the proper handler; he could be a WELL trained assassin. Sorry for the rant, its just pigs like these that make you question how much your rights really mean (Ie.cops overwhelmingly get acquitted from brutality charges). Fair is fair, dont beat me while im down son. Handling there emotions with the restraint of 5 year olds puts a very bad face on our Amazing law force agencies that as a whole would not accept this behavior.

[geronimo]

he might have just shot a cop, or worse he might have kidnapped a child? what ever he did he must have pissed them off pretty good. but im sure they will all b fired now.

[UNDERDOG]

Really??,,,,....  I don't care about some a-hole catching an azz woopin but that dog, a beast? and with a propper handler he could be an assasin? how do you come by that? the dog was walked up and put on the bite...  many PD dogs are weak anyhow.

[Hogsnatchers]

Ok maybe he deserved to get busted up a bit... But why in the hell does a man laying face down on the ground with a man on his back deserve to be attacked by a dog that's doing what it is trained to do on individuals that are actively RUNNING from the police not laying face down with someone already on your back. What happened to innocent until proven guilty by a jury of your piers. This crap goes on all the time. Just an example. Had a good buddy get charged with a dui he went to court paid his fines and probation. He received his cleared papers stating he had completed all requirements. Few months go by he gets stopped for speeding. As the officer looks up his licence he tells him he has a warrant for his arrest. Well thy take his in its for the dui he had already been cleared from. During the process of taking him in he left his truck for us to pick up with his wallet and belongings in it. They stole 300$ out of his wallet before we picked up his truck and the money in his pocket. While he was wrongfully detained there was another individual in a few cells down in a straight jacket tied to a chair. The officers that protect and serve us repeatedly pepper sprayed the man that was already in a straight jacket to the point of his whole face being blistered.

So, if somebody put you in a life threatening situation, whether you were a police officer or not, would you beat the number two out of them? The man in the video obviously had no respect for authority, do you think he think he should be treated with respect?

[grittydog]

When you run from the COPS in a high speed pursuit, expect to get your $ss WHOOPED.

X 2 exactly what i was thinkin. This is one of the main reasons people don't think twice about breakin the law, cause they know the worst thats gonna happen is free room and bored, free meals, brought to them while they lay around and watch free cable tv and play cards, all they while having more rights than the law abiding citizens out here busting their butts trying to provide for their family.
   If it was up to me, if you was caught breaking the law such as "evading arrest" you automatically forfeit your civil rights.
   And yes, ive been there, like halfbreed said, I deserved what i got, which in turn made me "NOT" want to do it again.
   This "time out" generation.......well I'll just leave it at that.
Whats sad, is this criminal will probly get a big settlement "get paid" for breaking the law.

[DWEST]

kinda like my granpa asked me one time when i was a teenager (can't remember how or why it came up)..."have you ever got an a$$ whoppin you didn't deserve?" (and while i sat there thinking, like a know it all teenager)...he said, "...and before you answer that, was there any that you missed that you know you deserved?"

Wont ever forget that conversation

Indeed i would. That is why i am not a police officer. To serve and protect implies a certain dignity and moral standard that should be employed and carried out by law enforcement. Im not saying that man didnt endanger the police but once he was subdued there was no longer a threat and as a law enforcement officer you have to call your own personal anger off. If you cant control yourself dont be a cop! If you or i were videotaped with 15 of our buddys as we were "subduing" a single attacker, believe me we would end up in jail for attempted murder. If our dogs attacked even a rober we could be charged with battery with a  deadly weapon. please some cops are just plain scum, a majority are good though. Without good cops we would live in a state of war.

I know where this thread is going but cant help commenting anyhow. Those of you on here that know me, know what i do for a living and where i stand.  I dont know the  specifics on this incident, and videos (especially dash cams) are hard to get the whole story from (because of the angles),  now that being said, if a K-9 handler put his dog on a bite when I was hands on, ID BE PISSED!  Its dangerous to the other LEOs on scene.  Now whether the boy needed his ass wooped or not, no one on this board (including me) is qualified to answer.  But that being said it looked like they HAD to drag him outta the truck. 

[slimpickins]

I'm going to be short. I see 1 problem and only 1, as I was not there and will not draw conclusions from a crappy dash cam video. That K-9 handler should be fired and his credentials stripped!!!! As for anything else, I see no need to comment.

[Peachcreek]

i think they handled that crack head very well. still think they should use an AB for a catch dog instead of a danged ole german shepard......

[Hog Dog Mike]

The deal is real simple to me. If the perp did not want that to happen all he had to do is not run. He got exactly what he deserved.

[OWL Black Mouth Curs]

i highley suspect that the last thing on those officers' minds are how they are going to look on camera when the smoke clears.

that situation could have been handled a thousand different ways including how it was handled.
it could of have had as many different outcomes.
judgement, training, and experience in the field is what determines those outcomes.
you do not gain judgement and experience in situations like these without partaking in them.
which is why there are cameras installed. when the smoke clears, superiors reveiw the situation and decide wether or not it was handled accordingly.  the men that did well get a pat on the back. the men that did not do so well get reprimanded, retrained, or fired.

i'd bet the dog handler falls in the latter of those two catagories.
