They have a video, so you can see it.

I hate these cops that beat people like that, they're power hungry and I love how they moved the horse in front of the camera to try and cover it! Something to hide officer?? Totally uncalled for. There's just too many stores like that in this day and age and many we probably don't even hear about.

I'm glad they were charged!

Just saw it on the news before DISing,
made me so sick... Absolutely no excuse.
That poor man just took it, punch after punch after punch.
Did you see the producer when the big, bad cop had him against the car?
He was trying not to laugh at the cop!
I'm sure it was terrifying, but sometimes when someone's
gone over the top like those cops did,
you can't help but notice how idiotic they are.
But what can be expected of a police force that stole, I think,
over 40 Cadillacs from a dealer while "protecting" their city
in the aftermath of Katrina??

I can't understand how so many cops were "intimidated" by a 64yo man that they had to beat him up.

How terrible!

I saw it last night on the news and was disgusted. I just sat there with my mouth hanging open.

I saw it this afternoon and it made me sick to my stomach. I know those officers have been through alot in the past few months and there are not many of us that can relate to that. But this is so disturbing on so many levels. They didn't tone it down even when they knew they were being videotaped. The ones punching him totally lost control.

Yeah, they were charged and all pleaded "not guilty" of course.
