How’s this for police abuse? A guy whose not resisting arrest gets bitten by a K-9, and he got evidence against him planted in his pocket. If there’s any clearer case of police abuse than this, we don’t what is. The comment by the reporter is valid: how many guys have been victimized by planted evidence?
Here is a scene where people are being arrested. It would depend on how you see it. These people can be talked into cooperating with the police. Another point is that police violence should not be exerted on guys who show no sign of aggression. It all depends on where the coin lands.
In this video, you have a student tasered several times when being escorted out of the library. There can be two sides to this story. One is the police exerted excessive police violence by using the taser. Another is that why didn’t the student identify himself and get the whole thing over with?
I would agree that people sometimes are stubborn, which forces the police to act. But as they say, you don’t hit a man when he’s down, not with a wooden club or baton. Cops may be doing their job, but this video shows how violence or use of police force can become excessive.
Here, in this video, police exerts excessive violence on an old guy. The old guy gets pinned down to the wall, punched in the head, slammed to the ground, and punched on the head again. How about that for police brutality? Aside from that, the media gets harassed as well.

You don’t follow instructions? Then, police are going to use force. But the one shown on this video is excessive police violence already. Trying to arrest the suspect is one thing, but repeatedly caning a guy whose on the leg while on his back is another. Is this a conditioning strategy? To learn to fear the police?

As if being homeless is not enough, the guy had to take some crap from the cops. According to reports, the guy was drunk and resisting questioning, but having to be hit on the face while you’re down is low, even for thugs and low-lives. Police violence like this is truly disheartening, if not disturbing.

This clip from BBC can be a good and bad thing. The good thing is that people are speaking out and making complaints against police violence. The bad thing is that they had reason to complain in the first place. Well, it is not an ideal world as you can see.
