Police behaving badly

Does this look like a tragic accident to you?

"The King County sheriff's office says it has nearly completed its investigation into the severe injury an Edmonds man suffered when he was wrongly arrested this month, and all signs point to it as a "tragic accident." **This video contains violent imagery."


I know we are all human and make mistakes, but if you choose to wear a badge and carry a gun, I believe you should be held to a higher standard. Mistakes like these cost lives or permanent injury. This was no accident, it was intentional. Just because the officer didn't expect him to hit his head and get knocked out doesn't make this an accident. If the young man who was injured here was your son, would you be very forgiving? This is America ~ innocent until proven guilty!

h/t to Silicone Alley!
