Summary?

that video is ten minutes long and chokes on loading.....

Happened to me the first time, hit refresh it will work.
Here's another but the first is best.

Summary is small argument over Roberts rules at city council meeting with some obvious bad blood on all sides. Councilor is escorted by police out of room and is cooperating as soon as he is out of sight of cameras, he gets it head first into door and then punched in head while unconscious several times by one goon in police uniform. Wife also gets assaulted requiring surgery to correct for carrying camera..

There was also an item in the news earlier this week about a bunch of off duty cops beating the shit out of some guy in a bar in Ohio or somewhere. I'm too lazy to Google it right now.

I stand by my contention that there's increasingly almost as much to fear from police as there is from criminals without badges.

You make a very valid point. I am more afraid of goons like this than criminals. At least with criminals I have the option of fighting back and not being jailed for protecting others or myself. And I have more than one friend who is a police officer. The ones that I know personally, I can't believe that they would ever pull this, but all it takes is one and the rest to do/say nothing. I want to see that goon removed from the force and charged for assault.

so, let me get this straight, it's a 10 mminute video of an assault that didn't happen on tape?

The reason he was beaten? Calling the local officials on shady, illegal practices?

Watch it, the officer thought he was ok but you can see the first part via the reflection on the glass as well as hear it. And you can also see the first shove and that the counsilor was doing nothing but go. Thanks for asking but I just sort of expected that people would watch it first...The cameras do get through the people blocking/covering for the assault. It's all on video. Watch, then make comments? Ok? Plenty of punches to the head, full force are right on tape. It's all there and the goons friends in on the whole thing blocking the camera and making comments to a guy just knocked out and assaulted. Disgusting small time crooked townies we have all known.

I'm definately watching this NOW

jeez....

we don't live in America anymore.......

That bitch in the yellow shirt deserves a beach slap (slapped across the body with a dead sea lion)

WHEN did this happen?

WHAT was the number of the Roseland Ohio Police Department?

The COP was a DICK and deserves to be FIRED, IMPRISONED and FINED.

The Lead Councelor and his lying ass Henchman should also be jailed and fined.

No matter how annoying Councilman Snyder was, there is NO WAY that these clowns can't be brought up on corruption charges.

"Can I have the floor"

"you may for one minute"

snyder starts talking

IMMEDIATELY "charlie" shouts him down

"but you are out of order, I have the floor"

"you do not, I never gave it to you"

down hill from there...

"git im fer my dad!" the fat bitch crows....

Oh, that OTHER fat bitch with a big head that tried to block the camera? I beleive she was physically and intentionally interfereing with the press and the rights of the reporter that videoed the ordeal....so JAIL her ASS for a few days.
