The cops showed up at the home owner's house at 2 am on a call of a domestic assault from within the home. It turns out that the man they were looking for was a tenant of the man that they beat the crap out of.
Nice huh?
Sure police would be worried for their safety on a domestic assault call but that does not give them the right to beat the living crap out of anyone ever. Period.
They went in with one purpose it seems. To beat up a wife beater. Now don't get me wrong here, if a man beats his wife then by all means kick the scum bags ass, but make sure you have the right man first.
The victim was beat up so bad that his face was broken around his left eye and he is some what worried that he may never fully regain all of his vision.
It is a sad situation for both the innocent man and the officer's involved.
I don't really know how to feel about this to be honest.
I feel very bad for the innocent man of course but at the same time I can't quite bring myself to condemn the police either. They are going into a potentially dangerous situation and are most likely scared for the woman inside as well as what the scum bag woman beater might do to them and her, domestic's have ended in death after all.
Still, having seen the video it was way overly excessive and thanks to a reader comment I have removed my previous moronic statement.
Sometimes we write with emotion and not with our heads and common sense.
Again thank you to anonymous for pointing that out.
What do you guys think?

"It, in my opinion is justifiable for police to use any force necessary, but not this excessive."
agh, what does that even mean?
look at that buggers face and say the cops did the right thing, they could have let him shut the door, waited the five minutes it would take for backup to arrive, and most likely during that time the guy they just beat up would have been calling the police himself to report them and who's who would have been pretty damn apparent, this is garbage
Thank you to anonymous. I worded that wrong and have removed it, what I meant to say was that it was overly excessive especially since I did see the video. Thank you for taking the time to comment as I was totally wrong in making that statement the way it came out.
No problem Walt. Its a great blog :)
And if my father approves of it....that in itself is all I need to hear!
