Re: Rock and Roll Event. Police Watch Fight.
As a cop you just can't win...if that officer had started swinging his baton and cracking bones then everyone would complain he used excessive force. If he stands there, calls for back up, and waits for the two fools to tire out, then he's a pussy or stupid. The anti-police crowd is never happy. There are explanations...but no one will probably listen. 1.) Maybe it's NYPD policy to call for backup and wait for another officer to take action when dealing with crowds? 2.) Maybe the officer is a reserve and has specific rules and limits on their authority? 3.) The officer made the correct tactical decision. The fight was between two fairly well matched individuals and no one was trying to overtly kill the other one or had an obvious advantage. He waited until his backup (a supervisor in this case) arrived before going hands on with a fighter. You had several idiots actively involved and even more idiots recording the even...well over twenty people of unknown sobriety and unknown allegiance. If that officer had gone hands on and been overpowered or knocked out and his gun taken inside a gun free zone...there could have been quite a few folks killed. He made the correct tactical decision...no harm, no foul. |

Re: Rock and Roll Event. Police Watch Fight.
Yea, the cop could have been mobbed as soon as he went in without back up. I wouldn't risk my life for two dumb asses beating the shit out of each other. Neither of them was using a weapon so no one else was in danger.

Re: Rock and Roll Event. Police Watch Fight.
Why should the cop take a chance on getting injured or killed? Let the idiots suffer the consequences of their own idiocy. No matter what a cop does or doesn't do, idiots will still be idiots the next day. |

Re: Rock and Roll Event. Police Watch Fight.
No, "Mr. I'm still mad at my father so I 'hate cops'", it's not a cop's job to NEEDLESSLY get injured or killed dealing with imbecils. It's cop haters like you that have hampered cops' ability to deal effectively with situations like this. Enjoy the sewage pits you and your types have created. Complain to yourself though. |

Re: Rock and Roll Event. Police Watch Fight.
I don't ever remember that my job description as a police officer ever included that I was to be beat up and/or die doing my job. In fact, as I said earlier, the officer did everything correct. As a police officer there is nothing anywhere EVER that says I'm supposed to endanger my life or the lives of others. As a police officer (any where in America for that matter), I'm free to not take action...no matter the crime, no matter the victims, I don't have to take any action if I don't want to...period. In this case, it's pretty obvious that if the officer took action he could easily have been over powered and had hi handgun taken...creating an even more dangerous situation. Why don't you stop being so dogmatically anti-police and look at things in a rational manner?
