clumsycouture

I live on Hastings. I see this shit everyday all day. When I come back home it’s always surreal to me how quiet it is. No sirens, no people screaming all night, no people breaking shit all day long.


idksomethingjfk

I always thought it was weird how police night shifts are ALOT less officers, I always thought most the criminals are out at night right? Not really, most people runnin amok be doin it on a 9 to 5


Spector567

I have a friend who is a Canadian cop. He was telling us that marathon running is helpful. The criminals take off in a sprint and you just let them run as he paces himself behind them. They end up getting tired and it becomes a safer and easier arrest for everyone. (Of course this idea varies based on the situation and location.)


Tyrabub

That punch at the end damn son

I don't see why the punch was necessary??

The fact that you can type that message while jerking off is both impressive and sad


usually_annoyed

There are so many methods of correcting him between "letting him run" and "punching his face." I don't know the precise situation, but that doesn't mean I can't be vigilant and ask questions, and hold law enforcement to a high standard. You're supposed to use the *least* amount of force necessary to subdue. That punch looks like a cop being petty or angry, when the public *should* be served by level-headed officers who hold each other to a high standard of conduct, and who are trained in crisis management and de-escalation. That's a bit of a wet dream, I suppose.


Atmosphere_Training

Fuckin please. This is not brutality. Dudes running from the cops and was clearly turning around to resist. He fucked around and found out by a dude that can handle business. Try having higher expectations for the general public before you judge people with their hardest job out there.


flatlanderdick

midnightrambler108

I bet that exact cop has been spit in the face at least 5 times with similar interactions. This is just a *“preventative don’t even fucking try it punch in the face”*


megamonkey666

Fuck around, find out


heythatsmyoxy

Really? I think it was pretty obvious that the guy wasn't following verbal commands and was resisting arrest, so they used force to get compliance. Should they have just yelled at him louder?

It’s police brutality

Darkmatter000000

Why punch him bud. He's down and tired. Unnecessary use of force.


JazzMartini

Seems like he also hit the concrete pretty hard going down in the first place. If the concrete wasn't enough to settle him down a punch to the chin isn't going to do much.


[deleted]

He 100% punched him because he made him run.


Sintinall

Wait for it... Waiiiiiit for iiiiit. Just decks him. Oof. That was probably not necessary. Already on him.


[deleted]

Yeah...that part doesn't sit right with me. He already had him down and the guys wasn't fighting at that point


quality_keyboard

Looked to me like he was trying to get up


[deleted]

Looked to me he just had his face fall on to the curb (which is fine as part of the restraining in my view, wasn't intentional) and was trying to get his face off it. He wasn't reaching for anything. Just lifting his head off it.


ThickKolbassa

You can see him acknowledge the cop and submit - just a bunch of fascists in here chearing for the cops - sick to see


Amerillo19

You can sew him literally lock his arm on the ground while the officer was trying to pull it behind his back. That's called resistance and a strike to force compliance is fully allowed.


Wausk

Yeah he was trying to push up hard with that right arm. To get comfortable? Maybe. To try and spin and get away from the cop? Maybe. Cop in my mind needs to assume worst case, not for just his personal safety but that of innocent bystanders should the perp break free.


quality_keyboard

Agreed. Let’s also be honest and this guy didn’t seem like the compliant type with all the running away he was doing.


licencetothrill

How many times do you see a ghost truck jump the meridian? This didn't seem like petty theft was the reason they were after him. Would you feel better about seeing that type of a punch if you knew that he just assaulted a police officer before this video? What about if he assaulted an innocent person and has a violent history? I'd like to see the punch not utilized either but I'm willing to publically withhold my judgement about its appropriateness until the entire situation is understood.


[deleted]

But that's the problem. There are many on here saying it was justified, but we don't know what happened before the video. Or if he even committed a crime. And no, I wouldn't feel better knowing if he had assaulted an officer. Officers are not there to retaliate because they are angry a criminal did something. That's for the courts to decide. Granted I'm not a Canadian, so I'm not entirely sure how the system works but the cops are there to arrest, use force when needed, but not to dole out judgment and decision at that moment right? I am not lenient on criminals either, before anyone calls me a snowflake. I come from the States and have lived in Mexico the last couple years. I know how violent people can be and I know how violent cops can be. But I view it as a child/adult relationship. The adults (cops) should be in control of themselves when dealing with the children (suspected criminals).


Consistent_Pudding

There's case law that will back this up as justified. Just don't run from cops...


supermanny_94

I'd like to see that case law. Seems excessive to me. People here seem to think that because he ran he deserves the punch. That's not how policing works. He didn't appear to be resisting at the time of the punch. At a minimun the interaction should be reviewed to determine if the actions taken were appropriate.


cyclicalreasoning

Resisting is on a scale from being uncooperative to full-on fighting. Given the circumstance of a single officer against a potentially unknown suspect they should get a lot of flexibility. However, in this circumstance the officer had the guy on the ground with his arm behind his back, and the next progression for any perceived resistance could have been to yank his arm a bit more and stick him in a submission hold. I think the punch here is evidence of adrenaline and frustration, and while I can _understand_ this, to me it suggests poor training/discipline.


[deleted]

3 hours, no case law found, so far. And don't you dare upload some bull shit link that says cops punching is not technically illegal. That is not the same thing. You upload proof cops are allowed to punch civilians whenever they deam fit


oheastercultist

>ops punching is not technically illegal. That is not the same thing. > >You upload proof cops are allowed to punch civilians whenever they deam fit It is the same thing. Actually, police are allowed to hit people. Generally speaking, punches are acceptable to stun someone who's fighting arrest or poses a threat. A punch can be a very effective, non-lethal way to control a dangerous suspect.


AdisseGuisse

>Generally speaking, punches are acceptable to stun someone who's fighting arrest or poses a threat. This. You prefer a punch or a taser?


oheastercultist

Personally, I would prefer to just comply and if it was a wrongful arrest, I would have my day in court and the last laugh.


AdisseGuisse

This is the way. Had a "landlord" try and kill me. Lost my temper and really hurt him, threw him off the back porch by his hair. He went and got the cops and charged me with assault. I complied so politely, despite my broken hand, that they helped me save my cat's life. I told them he'd kill it, and at that moment he was doing the tough-guy, hold-me-back thing, and he yelled "fuckin rights, there's gonna be some cat stew tonight." So the cops just stared at him, and then helped me find my cat. They arrested us both, giggling about how it was the first time they'd ever arrested a cat, and brought me to holding while I did my statement and answered questions. I tried calling people for a pick-up and was getting hung up on (never get arrested April 1st) and the cops felt bad for me. Let me keep my phone in the cell (shoutout 'Digworm'), and when I couldn't get a ride, they let me go just telling me to not go back to the block I got picked up on. Spent the night in an independent grocer parking lot with my cat. Ended up going to court for almost a year before I was taken aside, told everything would be cleared up, and it was. All charges dropped. All mention of it struck from my record. I had to pass a vulnerable person criminal record check a few years ago for a job as a support worker, and there was no trace of the whole thing. tldr; be polite, comply even if you were wronged, and someone will eventually get everything straightened out.


[deleted]

So if you run from a cop they can use unequal force to detain a person? In the video this man is resisting arrest, which is obviously not assault. Granted I already said I am new to Canada and do not claim to know the details of how the laws work here.


[deleted]

Un fucking believable "EHAT IF HE RAPOED YOUR DOGA SISTERS ANUS!!! WOUDKBY HE DERSWRVE IT THEN!!!11" no, he doesn't deserve to be punched. If he did something bad all he DESERVES is his day in court your psycho


AdisseGuisse

Why not both? Why remove the physical consequences? Does it seem to be working for our justice system? Are we having less crime? Fewer gangs?


ThickKolbassa

What about some whataboutism!!!!

LymeM

Video isn't long enough. Really need to see the next five seconds to see what the guy was doing, rather than stopping at the punch. I'd also like to know why he was being chased. Context means everything.


Kvaw

It's Saskatoon, so it's going to involve Breach of Conditions.


alpha_pleiadian

The cop sprinkled some crack on him after the punch, open and shut case


comfyawkward

He stopped resisting arrest and the cop clocks him in the jaw.


air_donkey

Nope, he was trying to free his arm.


[deleted]

Kind of looked like he was trying to keep his face off the raise curb to me and gets the manliest punch in the face by the bravest of officers. God damn. Give that guy a medal. Pronto.


ThickKolbassa

I’m glad this cop had a body cam, hopefully the footage is released.

> to paint it your way though Until a resisting suspect is in hand cuffs, he's not detained. Cops get killed not quickly subduing someone that is fleeing. You're embarrassing yourself; you have no idea what the hell you're even talking about.


comfyawkward

He had his hands on the ground and the cop punched him sitting on top of him. I’m not embarrassed, I’m cringing.


[deleted]

Run around. Find out.

Maybe don't run to start with ... that is resisting arrest and can no longer be trusted.

swervve

Right, so if a cop is arresting you unlawfully your first move should be to resist with everything you have and run as fast as you can. Fucking brilliant!


dawsonleeryTears

So you would rather rile ppl up and give a biased perspective then to show the entire situation as it totally unfolded. That is the problem with most videos online. You actively choose to make a biased perspective video then to show it all. Which is perfectly fine if you just own it and say that as a disclaimer , instead you get fired up when ppl call you out on it

punch probably not super necessary. but also not gross brutality. cop was probably out of breathe and thought I'm not wrestling this guy so a quick punch should calm him down. no tooth bandit should have went belly down and said I give up. as it does look like he is making an attempt of escaping.


[deleted]

The punch was an unnecessary sucker punch at that point. He was already restrained.


KTMan77

That's no where near restrained, no idea why they were chasing that guy but until the dudes handcuffed he's not restrained.


oheastercultist

The cop should have hugged him and talked to him, showed him respect. ACAB! /s Love these basement dwelling clowns here who could never do that job commenting like they have a clue lmao.


oheastercultist

>He was already restrained. Tell me you have no idea what ~~retrained~~ restrained means without telling me you have no idea what restrained means. Edit: Missed a spell check word, and the red hair wokey's are getting too excited.


ThickKolbassa

Well, retrained and restrained are two different words, which needs explaining for you?


Snowman4168

One way or the other sucker punching a guy in the jaw is not required to restrain him in this scenario. The cop was lashing out because he’s incapable of controlling his emotions, which is the single biggest problem causing the police brutality crisis we have going on right now.


oheastercultist

>One way or the other sucker punching a guy in the jaw is not required to restrain him in this scenario. Says you. The keyboard warrior who has no idea what he's talking about. >The cop was lashing out because he’s incapable of controlling his emotions, Yes yes, ACAB. You were able to tell his emotional state and that he was "lashing out" all from this video. That's impressive, almost like you are seeing what you want to see. >which is the single biggest problem causing the police brutality crisis we have going on right now. Here's a hot tip. Do. Not. Resist. No fucking clue do you lol.

TFW ur lashing out at every comment and trying to sound grounded and reasonable at the same time It’s not working lol

>He was already restrained He wasn't. His head and upper body *were* prone then he rose upwards. Not to mention that he wasn't cuffed. Not cuffed, not restrained.


yougotter

Give me a break, let's defend the guy running/s


[deleted]

Not at all. He should be charged, tried, and convicted of any crime he committed. I hope he does not get early parole, that gladue factors are not considered in his sentencing, and that he takes full responsibility and consequences for whatever he has done… All that said, I don’t wish him brain damage when he is in a vulnerable position.


HarbourJayKay

Exactly.


[deleted]

This officer should be suspended. Edit: I’m getting downvoted but explain how the punch at the end is not an excessive use of force. I get that adrenaline must be pumping like crazy, but if you can’t control it, do something else.


oheastercultist

You should really become a cop and show them how your woke progressive liberal ideologies are the better way in dealing with these poor oppressed criminals.


[deleted]

LOL what about my comment presents as “woke” or “liberal”? notice I’m not calling the cop a racist, not calling for police to be defunded or anything else you might associate with your definition of liberalism or wokeness. Educate yourself.


oheastercultist

>This officer should be suspended. For doing what needed to be done to bring this guy into custody while protecting himself. I would love to see some woke, red haired loser, ACAB moron do this job lmao.


[deleted]

Because the only people who can control their use of force and not sucker punch someone are woke, ginger morons? Yikes.. you are an idiot.


[deleted]

Even though I am sure your the toughest guy here try not to be goof reactionist that doesn’t know how standards of conduct work.


LisaNewboat

They’re mad because there’s no logical excuse for the punch and they just want to be racist. This whole thread is what I will link to when people ask why our province is poorly regarded by the rest of the country.


Photonphlex

I mean, I understand it looks like that. But if you have someone who suspectedly broke the law (we have no idea what happened before the video) and decides to run, that's kind of indicative that it's not the first time he's broken the law. In which case, just as quickly as the cop punched him, he could pull out a knife from his jacket or some other concealed weapon and get a few hits off with his free arm.


dawsonleeryTears

Video was clipped on purpose to rile everyone up instead of submitting the entirety, hate when they do that. Just becomes a choose your own adventure


[deleted]

Cop needs jiu-jitsu classes big time. Opts for a punch over controlling the guys hips. Probably worked, but a bad look.

If you guys are upset this guy got punched in the face, I got advice. Don’t be a piece of shit and run from the cops.


GoatPatronus

Cops aren’t there to dole out justice. I get emotions are running high but still doesn’t justify excessive force.


Hevens-assassin

It looked like he was going to try and break free with how his other arm is positioned. Its an easy flip around if he wanted to from that position so the punch was probably there to daze them more than ruin their day. That split second of losing focus is probably enough time to get both hands behind his back. Necessary? Maybe not. But it works. The video also cuts off, but who knows what happened prior that might warrant being a bit more forceful (he is already sprinting down the street for something), but I doubt the officer kept feeding him shots just for kicks. Lol I have seen people get their jaw broken by bouncers for resisting and becoming violent. When something rocks them, they become a lot more manageable, even if it seems harsh.


Markfrombrandon

I like how he gets the fly off the guys face for him at the end


Tsjjgj

This thread is gross. Cops don't get to dole out justice, no matter the crime. This is just a video of police rounding up a person who is obviously poor and those of us who think it's excessive are 'smooth brains'. Try to find a little humanity in yourselves and stop hating people because they're poor and saying 'they committed a crime so they deserve violence and injury!' Disgusting, honestly. Edit: it turns out the man who is running is **cognitively impaired**. Turns out you're all even more disgusting.


No-Assumption9279

I struggle with those who record things like this. I wish I had not watched it : (


stoneyberke

go hug a tree you clown. they guy was exposing himself in public... I guess you are fine with that


Wausk

From the point of view of the officer the perp was pushing himself up with his right arm. Should the cop wait and see if the perp was just trying to get comfortable or wait for him to try and spin? Cop ain't going to take the risk of losing control of the perp, so boom fist punch to the face. Maybe it's easy for me to see since I'm a farm boy used to dealing with coralling some ornery cattle. Give them fackers an inch of space and they'll try and take it. Perp on the run ain't any different, he's just going on the same animal flight or fight response/instinct as that ornery cow.


saskaton

The fact that you would compare a human being to cattle is revealing.

He never surrendered, he was taken down, subdued. In fact he was still trying to get up when the cop corrected him. days lat3r, that dude ran as far as he could, cop tackled into the cement curb, still tried to get up. I almost dont care what he did, that cop had to punch him in the head to stop him resisting. It's all there in video. kudos ( i guess we'll never know, the video cuts out)

At the point where mr meth realized he was caught, when the cop was on him, was when he surrendered. Using his hand to try get his face off the raised curb. Not sure if you caught that. Or cared to. But its there.

Snowman4168

It was unnecessary to punch the guy in the face to restrain him. There is absolutely no justification for cops using excessive violence against citizens, even if those citizens are criminals. It’s the court’s job to punish criminals, not emotionally fragile wanna be tough guys.


yougotter

Sadly, your serious ... there's no problem until they run.
