1. the video only shows the end of the incident |
|
the guy is bleeding but the cops are mostly calm. One in the foreground threatens with mace and a baton and they walk him away. How are we supposed to know what happened that resulted in the arrestee's bloody nose or lip?

2. It'll be interesting to see what the charges are. Pretty rough take-down for playing some tunes. |

3. I always wonder why it takes 3 obese cops an age to cuff a guy |
|
While they sit on him and grind his face into the pavement.
Wouldn't a "Sir, would you be so kind as to put your hands behind your back so I can cuff you" do the job in most cases?
Mind you maybe this musician was bullying the five or six enormous policemen. Like someone said, we don't know the whole story.

7. That looks like a pretty crazy scene. |

One of these days one of these communities is going to explode. It seems like we're getting closer every day.
