While i agree that there is no excuse for bashing a man/ woman or childs head into the ground
I woukd also say (and it irks me to agree with turd mc turdface) there are levels of violence that do not justify a gaol sentence.
Assault, by law, is threatening anyone.
You don't even have to touch them, the threat is the key.
Battery, is actual touching, and it gets twisted from this point
Just tapping a cop on the shoulder constitutes assault and battery.
Now, additionally, I have seen cops going for broke on someone because they have the weight of the law behind them.
There are many many cases where cops have well and Truely overstepped the point of justifiable force.
One example comes to mind
The poor bloke tazered to death by cops
" but we only hit him once"
Quote: In 2012 the NSW coroner released a damning report into Taser use after the Brazilian student Roberto Laudisio-Curti died after being Tasered 14 times during a psychotic episode.
I also watched 3 cops attack a bikie who was not resisting
And when he blocked the punches, he was charged with assault.
It were good having video evidence at his trial, but he still went away.
I don't trust the law to be honest or just.
The bikie probably had it coming, they are no angels.
